It’s Bubba Ho-Tep!
Since signing up for Netflix I have been watching a lot more movies than ever before in my life. I probably watch 10 movies a week now, where previously I would watch maybe 2-3 a month. As a result of this, and also having the ability to stream the movies instantly as opposed [...]
Behind the Mask
Since recently canceling my account with Blockbuster and signing up for Netflix I have been quite pleased the service. Being able to download so many movies instantly, and for no additional charge, has allowed me to watch a lot of movies that I likely wouldn’t watch if I had to go pick them out, [...]
Well, I thought it was funny. And the more I think about it, the funnier it gets.
I was text chatting with my Mother the other day (it seems the world has come full circle, we used to exchange letters, then came the telephone, followed by emails, which has now led to real time text chat, which will probably be followed by morse code, odd how that is going, eh?), and we [...]
Cindy Crawford + Alec, Daniel, Stephen, William Baldwin = something…
There really isn’t ever much on television at two in the morning. Last night I wasn’t tired enough to sleep and found myself flipping through channels. Alas, I had already seen all of the infomercials a couple of times (let me tell you, that Oxi Clean: Orange Action stuff isn’t worth nearly the 19.95 I [...]
Finally a lawsuit for The DaVinci Code
When I saw the headline that read Date set for Da Vinci Code plagiarism trial. I just had to click through to read it. I figured it could only be one of two things. The first that Dan Brown had somehow filed suit against himself for plagiarising his first novel Angels and Demons, which didn’t [...]
The 40-Year-Old Virgin
My wife had a pair of free movie tickets that had to be used by end of September so we went to see a movie today. While we had decided that we were going to watch The Corpse Bride Which is getting far better reviews than I would have expected, it turns out that the [...]
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
This started as a comment on a BlackChampagne post. If some thoughts seem more incomplete than usual that is probably why.
I saw the film this morning, luckily for me the children in attendance kept mostly quiet throughout.
I have a completely different take on the movie though, as I watched and loved the original version of [...]
Hollywood movie porn names?; Onion horoscopes; Mom’s PC
• This is something that I have been kicking around, inside my mind, for at least a month. Are film makers really trying to get Hollywood to start giving out Oscars for the worst named film? The summer releases this year seem to indicate that yes, they are. Or at least my assumption is based [...]
The Pacifier; Alex Winter
Today’s post is going to be pretty mundane, feel free to read it in its entirety!
Today we took in a movie, The Pacifier, which I had seen the trailer for at a different movie and thought would be enough fun to pay for matinee tickets for. It was actually far better than my wife or [...]
Sideways
Just a quick note to mention that today marks the one year anniversary of my little bitch site. Happy Birthday to me!
•My wife and I wanted to go to see a movie today, we still had one free guest pass and it expires at the end of January. The movie that we wanted to go [...]
