The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

August 16th, 2008

For those unfamiliar - Bauby was a prominent journalist for ELLE until he suffered a massive stroke that knocked him into a coma for 20 days.  When he awoke he found that he was 100% mentally aware of [...]

Zodiac

August 16th, 2008

This movie got some flack when it came out and many find it boring.  I, however, consider it one of David Fincher’s best.
If you know anything of the Zodiac then it was one of the most unusual and intriguing serial killer stories. 
Fincher does a terrific  job - sticking close to the facts and not [...]

Darkon

August 11th, 2008

Have you ever played or heard of Dungeons and Dragons?  Have you ever heard of role playing? - not that type of role playing - Live action role playing or Larping.
Believe it or not there are people  who do this.  They dress up, pretend they are elves, carry fake swords and proceed to beat [...]

Batman 1989

August 11th, 2008

Sorry for the lack of posts.  I’ve been busy watching The Dark Knight - no joke!  (Forgive the pun)  What a great movie.  I just saw it again for the third time and noticed the wide variety of audience members. 
Hats off to Nolan and co.
This lead me to think back when I was [...]

Can The Joker win an Oscar?

July 18th, 2008

So I’ve seen The Dark Knight and for me it did live up to its hype. It’s a great film that stands on its own. I truly enjoyed watching this flick and Heath Ledger’s performance – as we expected – did not disappoint.
Which leads me to the current buzz that’s been heating up the [...]
