The Important Ones - Part 2
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - First time I was sent to the Principals Office
1992 was a big year for me. I was turning 10 years old, both my older sisters were moving out of the house, my team was in the Football Grand Final (Future Blog) and I discovered the film genre known as Horror. Every Saturday after Footy I would get on my bike ride down to the vi… Continue

The Important Ones - Part 1
Some of these films you probably won’t find in my top 20 let alone top 100 but nonetheless these films have a long history for me personally. In years to come whenever I see them channel surfing or sitting on a rack at a store I’ll always remember them for one reason.

My Own Personal Cinema Paradiso

Top 10 LOST Episodes
So because I have some free time on hand I bring to you my Top 10 LOST episodes.
Number 10
Season 2 Episode 3 Orientation
The first of many Lockecentric episodes in this list. Here we have the Swans computer damaged forcing Sayid, Locke, Jack and Kate to fix it or the world could possibly end. In flashback we have Locke trying to keep his relationship with Helen stable while also coming to grips with his father stealing his kidney. All this sounds very stupid to non-viewers but this really is… Continue

Happiness is difficult to define and even harder to measure. We experience it as a combination of elements, in the same way that one wheel or spring inside a watch doesn't keep time - it is a result of the synchronicity of the whole. As a relative...
Congratulations, you bitchy Evangelion fanboys, you got your movie. Evangelion 1.0 is probably one of the most faithful movie adaptations you'll ever get (or at least one you'll bitch the least about). It follows the original story, makes no dras...
