This film was lots of fun. It really lifted me up to see the Disney Company moving in such a positive direction. First: The film is preceded by the classic Mickey Mouse short, Boat Builders. Then there was the Walt Disney Pictures logo AND a Disney Animated Studios logo featuring Steamboat Willie! These two bits [...]

So a couple of weeks ago, Vaughn introduced me to the telnet shortcut to the Star Wars Asciimation and I did my part to spread the word about this darn cool video. Then I took it upon myself to screencap the video and dub in the sfx/dialogue from the original movie. BEHOLD!

If it weren’t for Katy, I probably wouldn’t have read the book before I saw the movie. This movie is what Eragon should have been: an appropriate tribute to the spirit of the book. I guess I can thank David Patterson (son of the author and screenplay). The only thing missing was the sacred grove, [...]

AND THE UNITED STATES ARMY FIELD BAND JAZZ AMBASSADORS!!!! They played swing music and I had to sit their instead of jumping up and dancing it because no one was able to take up the 2nd ticket. Shoot. So I show up for the event ready for a good time just because I love A [...]

What a gorgeous film. If Renaissance painters were making movies instead of painting pictures, this is how they would look. The blood spurts were so animated and very fun to watch…and there was a lot of them. This “sword and sandal” epic redeems Warner Brothers for Troy, but it doesn’t redeem Wolfgang Peterson…he’s gonna have [...]

This movie was very fun. Not being a Marvel kid, I’m not intimately familiar with the mythology/background that ties into the character, but this was a good movie with a good mythology. The story was fun and interesting if a little obvious. And of course the most interesting thing was seeing Marvel’s “Spirit of Vengeance” [...]

YES! There’s now a friend finding filter when you look at all your friends. True it works about as fast as all other friend finders on the site, but hey! It’s an improvement!

This is just an update that isn’t show related. I’ve not had a lot of sleep since Daylight Savings Time and I blame Congress. Which of course means I have to once again turn on my Republican brethren because I can’t hold the currently elected Democratic regime responsible for this policy change. So Congress pushed [...]

I have loved this musical ever since David Sidoni (of Newsies and OCHSA fame) played “Big Ass Rock” for a warm-up at Orange County Song and Dance Summer Camp many years ago. And I’ve been waiting to see it ever since I chose not to go to the national tour at OCPAC back in 2003 [...]

To tell this story properly, you have to go back about a month to when the Atomic Teams first got word of this gig. The first details we receive was that it was a big event and they wanted 10 five-minute numbers, but we talked them into the 6 polished numbers we could produce in [...]
