Okay, so it's a fact. You take advantage of little girls, you are either going to be called a pervert or a pedophile. Well, what if I was to tell you that there is a legal way to take advantage of little girls and get paid to do it at the same time? Oh, I know that you are saying that there's no way you can get paid to take advantage of little girls, but I tell you there is.
First step: Write a bland-but-safe book.
While this is difficult to do for talented writers, non-talented hacks that are… Continue

Well, hey I'm not sure how accurate this one is, and let me start off by saying right now that I'm NOT 100% SURE if this one is the truth, but here goes:
Latino Review is reporting that the Will Smith and Steven Spielberg adaptation of Oldboy is now officially dead, and that there will be an announcement in the more "reliable" sources later this week.
But, acco… Continue

With Halloween this weekend, it’s time to make some movie suggestions. Now, while not all of these movies are your normal “Horror” movies, they are some of the ones that I love the most. And yes, rest assured that there aren’t any “Blair Witch” or “Saw” movies suggested here.
For those of you who enjoy a good vampire movie based on real vampires that avoid the sunlight, and don’t sparkle. I suggest you try to find “John Carpenter’s Vampires”.
James Woods leads a team of Vam… Continue

Yes, you read that one right. Jesus Christ, the "Son of God", the "Redeemer".. you know the carpenter that was supposedly crucified by the Romans to wash away your sins. Yep, that's the one. Well, now he's coming back to the screen only this time in 3D.
Michael Collins (1996) is possibly one of the better Biopics made in recent years. Starring Liam Neeson as Michael Collins, the leader of the Irish Republic Army, and later the President of the Provisional Government of Ireland Free States.
The film starts off with the Easter Uprising of 1916, and the execution of the leaders involved with organizing the failed revolt against the British Empire.
A very p… Continue

Okay, I don't know what's more depressing. That I tossed out a comment on a screen-shot and won a contest I really didn't care about? Or the fact that the "prize" showed up today, and the "Poster" from MGM was a 9x11 inch poster, and not even a damn MOVIE POSTER? Or the fact that the CD soundtrack was unwrapped, and clearly opened because the case is chipped and the "Barcode" has a hole punched through it so you can't turn it into a store for an exchange?
Anyway, here's the "prize" that… Continue

You know, every now and then something will just slap you so hard in the face that you can't shake it off. I'm talking about the apparent lack of respect for the Star Wars franchise in today's society. What I mean, is that there has been a growing movement of people that either don't respect the place of Star Wars in Hollywood industry circles, or just simply don't respect the Star Wars "mythology amongst fans". Now, I'm not talking about people that don't like the movies. Hey, that's fine with… Continue

Do you really want to play with my UNIT? If you do, then you better be prepared to take on more than you bargined for. UNIT (United Nations Intelligence Taskforce or Unified Intelligence Taskforce) is the Earth’s only line of defense against alien attacks and dangers of Doctor Who. While their mandate is to find a… Continue

So, here we are the current generation of Companions. But, where can we add characters we haven't seen before? Well, honestly that's what the writing staff of the newest Doctor Who asked themselves before starting to write the show, and I think you'll find it rather interesting to see where they've gone with the newest companions. Taking the concept that "We've seen it before" to heart, the writer's were determined to completely establish the "New" Doctor Who shows with companions that would hav… Continue

Okay, let's get this one out of the way right now. This isn't quite complete. There were several Companions from the Third Doctor's tenure that I have left out. This wasn't an oversight or a personal decision. I left them out because there was a few of them that were directly related more with UNIT that with The Doctor. Because of that, I've left them out of the "Companion blogs", but will go over them with the "Unit blog". Plus, keep in mind there's a few spots where "Introduction" and "Exit" a… Continue

***************** On a personal front *****************************
I spent some time debating what would be the best format to present the "Companions" as a whole. After some serious thought, I actually came to the conclusion that the best format would be to break it up into 3 different categories. This is the first of those three categories: The Companions before I started watching the show.
What we have are the people that were only seen in re-runs, or on DVD. Because of that,… Continue

So, there has to be something to be said about the show that has become the longest running Sci-Fi show ever made. And believe me there really is a LOT of somethings to be said. We could dive into the whole concept of an adventure based on the concepts of genocide, dictatorship, conformity, political intrigue, and even sexism. All of these concepts are either explored or attacked by Doctor Who and the writers of the show. But the truth is, the only way to understand the whole appeal of the show… Continue

Here it is, Saturday morning, I'm wearing nothing but a t-shirt and underwear, eating a bowl of cereal and watching the same show that I watched 30yrs ago as a little kid. Well, maybe not exactly the same show, but at least the same character and the same props and even to the point of the same title. I'm of course talking about Doctor Who. Possibly the only show in the history of television, that has kept me interested for over 30yrs. Let me start this one off by setting the way-back-machine, o… Continue

You know, every now and then, someone will mention wanting to see some video-game turned into a movie. Honestly, I don't know what makes people think this is a good idea at all. Let's look at the history of video-games turned into movies first. I'll even be kind enough to IGNORE the movies that were released direct-to-video that were based on Video-games, and I'll even be kind enough NOT to mention the massive amounts of "fan-made" videos either.
Way back 1993, the practice started with the h… Continue

Well here we are, 2008 and it’s the end of lists. Yet, there is going to be a slight change to the way these lists are done. First, the factoids aren’t really all that many, just four actually. After three decades as the Chairman of Microsoft Corporation, Bill Gates steps down from daily duties to concentrate on philanthropy. Michael Phelps surpasses Mark Spitz in Gold Medals won at a single Olympics, winning eight. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is officially inaugurated. It is a collaboration… Continue

Way back in May, I asked the simple question: "Was 1982 the last “Perfect year” for movies?". Since then, these "year-of-movies" lists have completely taken on a life of their own. I openly admit some aggravation has gotten mixed into doing these lists. For example, trying to find a properly sized picture for some old films gets hard to do when there aren't pictures available. And on a few of the films, what I thought was a good picture didn't save properly to post on the forum until it was too… Continue

Just one more to go after this one, and then we’ll start over again. Hell no, I’m kidding about that.
But, here we go; the facts of 2007 for those of you who are interested. Bulgaria and Romania join the European Union. Nancy Pelosi becomes the first female Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. Microsoft releases Windows Vista and Office 2007. Russia is once again recognized as a full-fledged superpower by the United States. A 2,100-year-old melon is discovered by archaeologist… Continue

Well, we are coming close to the end of these “year of movies in review”, and ironically 2006 is a big one. It was a busy year, but let’s see if we can get through it together. Here we go, some facts to set the scene of 2006 in your mind. NASA's Stardust mission successfully ends; the first to return dust from a comet. Celebrations are held in Salzburg and around the world, for the 250th anniversary of the birth of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The 2006 Winter Olympics are held in Turin, Italy. Irela… Continue
