The X-Files: things you probably won’t need to know
July 24th, 2008 · No Comments
So! The X-Files: I Want To Believe comes out tonight at midnight. Unfortunately I’m not seeing it tonight, I have to wait until tomorrow night, but I figured I’d post background info on the show for those of you who are seeing the film but may not be caught up in the series.
WarGames: The Dead Code
July 23rd, 2008 · 1 Comment
Anyone who knows me knows that I have a huge soft spot for what I call “nerdy scientist movies”. These movies are always terrible, but the plucky and endearing scientist characters make the movies worth watching. Think: Twister, The Core, andJurassic Park (though Jurassic Park is also awesome because of the dinosaurs, obviously). […]

Who’s A Cooler Mayor: Tommy Carcetti or Michael Nutter?
March 4th, 2008 · 2 Comments
That’s an unfair question since one of those guys isn’t real. But, Mayor Nutter knows how to keep it real - he’s such a big fan of HBO’s The Wire (AKA - the best television show evar!) that he’s arranged for a special network-sanctioned screening of the series finale at City Hall on Sunday night.

Movie Review Mashup-January 2K8 Edition
January 31st, 2008 · 2 Comments
If Tanis Half-Elven was to fire a steel tipped arrow at some Burmese nationals while hiding out in the Fuherbunker, you’d have my last week’s movie selections. My movie mash up review this time will consist of Dragonlance (2008), Rambo (2008), and Der Untergang (2004) as a pleasing palette cleanser.

Don’t You Dare to Try and Stop Us
November 5th, 2007 · No Comments
I’m sure everyone has had a situation in his/her life that, in some way, seemed like a scene out of the movie Clerks. “Oh man that’s like when Dante blah blah blah!” “Dude!” Well I can’t recall ever having a moment like that until this past weekend and I’m glad 1) it made me chuckle […]

Say It Ain’t So, G.I. Joe!
October 1st, 2007 · No Comments
Paramount Pictures has confirmed that a “G.I. Joe” film will begin production in February and is scheduled for a release in summer 2009! Don’t drop your trousers too fast though…G.I. Joe will become an acronym for “Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity” — an international, coed task force charged with defeating bad guys (please be Cobra). […]

Lost In-Toxication
August 23rd, 2007 · 4 Comments
Bill Murray could [hilariously] face DWI charges after having been pulled over in Stockholm for driving a golf cart through the city’s downtown area. Drunk. Being the ignorant foreigner that I am, I previously assumed that it was pretty commonplace for people in Stockholm to get drunk and ride golf carts around until 4am. Apparently […]

Satan Spelled Backwards
August 16th, 2007 · 1 Comment
If you are of a certain age and you were into skateboarding then chances are pretty good that you were a Natas Kaupas fan. I know that I was!
How could you not be?
The guys name was sataN spelled backwards. He had a really innovative and sick style. His hair and skate style were weird as […]

What’s the Point?
August 9th, 2007 · 3 Comments
When I was a little tyke, one Christmas my parents saw fit to bestow upon me a record player. A real one too. Along with all the requisite Disney albums and other such kiddie fare they periodically supplied me with 45’s and singles of current chart toppers. Your Nena’s “99 Red Ballons” (b/w 99 Luftballons […]

Ian Meyer is my homeboy and probably my best friend. He comes from the magical land of Iowa but you might know him from his stints living in Boston, Royersford PA, Philly or New York (or maybe some other places). Maybe you met him while we was on tour as a roadie for the excellent […]
