a review 18 years too late
when I was a kid (society calls em tweens and I think that sounds disgusting)… anyway, a movie called WARLOCK happened upon HBO/Cinemax. Being the unsupervised child that I was, a movie that sounds that inherently evil obviously appealed to me.
Without giving away much of the plot away it’s fair to say that the Warlock came to A. Kill People and B.Serve his dark master and he ends up doing alot of both. It has some fake blood and cheesey 1980’s f/x and although its not too extremely gorey it does its best to show alot of spoooooooky new england and the Insane Bonneville Salt Flats of Utah….
If you have comcast check out the Free Movies from On-Demand. Playing all march long
my latest grievance
in my humble opinion, generation Y has been mislabeled, they should have been called the direct to dvd generation.
now let me backtrack, I consider myself quite fortunate to have been born at the tail end of the gen X era. I remember when there were 3 networks, I remember saturday morning cartoons, I remember various little mid 80s staples of life such as afterschool specials and Nancy Reagan asking me to Just Say No.
Somewhere along the way, I’d say it must have been the early to mid 1990s a Disney executive decided to desecrate their collection of classics and ring out sequels left and right. Useless and pointless re-tellings of stories that ended years and sometimes decades ago. (Snow White 2, Sleeping Beauty 2 and the Ambien Dream)
This eventually spread out to all forms of movies, now not that it was such a classic but my case in point is proved with the release of Scorpion King 2……. Scorpion King 2?!?!? WTF! Was it THAT necessary? Did The Rock leave some questions unanswered in the first one? I mean with Chuck Norris in the 80’s we were taught a lesson, to hate commies, druggies and the vietnamese army, also, Chucks COUNTLESS sequels went to the theaters first.
The straight to DVD market isn’t even being used wisely, case in point Star Wars Episode 2.5, it looks like it sucks, mostly reputable reviewers have dismissed it. So it’s wasting theater space rather than entertaining an 8 year old with ADD and a sword fetish.
a different kind of blue
it has definitly been an interesting month to say the least
Whenever actors, musicians, etc; start to pass away in groups.. I , like mostly anyone else, feel sad. This sadness is only magnified because of a personal situation involving a loved one and mortality. Im trying to figure, where does that connection start? When do we adopt these celebrities as our personal heroes or friends?
I’ll try to aim for something more cheery next post
the further decline of modern civilization
.. those of you who tend to read me on a semi regular basis can guess that by the title I of course I’m going to talk about American Idol. The show keeps swirling further down the toilet, the past week saw the final 5 hacking and massacring Neil Diamond songs. Mr Neil Diamond, Mr Jewish Elvis has reached a new low in my eyes for letting his catalogue get butchered on the show. By this time, all the favorites have pretty much settled on their own formula, they will not change because they will attempt some type of career regardless if they win or not. Brooke is blonde emo and sunshine, a sensitive lady who tries to cry without blinking. David Archuleta will sing as if he’s been forced to sing for his life at a Korean Amusement park. David Cook has his emo mullet and will cover any cover song that he sees fit. Jason Castro is high and will always be high, it’s not sarcasm look at him when Seacrest is asking him questions, he doesn’t know where he is and he’d rather be eating some Cherry Garcia. At this point I’m rooting for the Puerto Rican chick to win even though she won’t, bottom two are Cook and Archuleta.
Where do you stand?
Recently.. here in FL, state law makers have passed a law allowing registered gun owners to lawfully keep their guns in their cars when they are at work. I don’t know where to begin.. honestly, it seems kind of funny that this all occurred just mere days after the death of Charlton Heston. ,.. The 2nd amendment was written more than 230 years ago, we live in a different society, a society that has identified mental illnesses. This same society has very lax gun laws in most states that allows degenerates and some mental defects to get their hands on a gun. …. Now I understand , a gun has saved the life of many a civilian, officer, soldier, but think of the far too many children, store clerks or workers that were in the wrong place at the wrong time…. all because someone had a bad day and just so happened to have a gun with them.
But I digress, haven’t there been too many disgruntled worker shootings? It seems like FL is setting a very bad precedent.
Microsoft and Yahoo?
the general fact that Microsoft will inevitably merge, mount, ransack and plunder Yahoo scares me. It is scary enough that most PCs operate with Windows, scary enough that Microsoft owns XBOX, ZUNE. But why did they have to mess with Yahoo? I’m all set to cancel my yahoo and switch my important emails to another server
blargh
Life has been very hap-hazard this week. I’ve been feeling very unsatisfied with work, trying to unscrew what I see as screwed up is becoming to hard to do. I’ve been trying to remain level-headed and I’ve even been speaking in code regarding other situations but it’s gotten to the point that I don’t care. so If ya pray, please pray for me
Ralph Nader STAY HOME PLEASE!!
I can’t say too much because I’m only basing this off of Yahoo Headlines but PLEASE
RALPH NADER!! Stay home for the next 8-10 Months! We don’t need you messing up another election!!!! You’re effort is noted but you’ll do us all a big help by NOT RUNNING!! There are more than enough qualified candidates out there. This statement isn’t meant to insult nor degrade the Green Party or Mr. Nader.
Oh brother
Super Tuesday is winding down, and Im scared.
Is Hilary going to win? I mean, at this point my cat would be
better than W but this is really going to be an odd year
this or that

UGH!!!!!!!!
one destroys the
other!!!!!!
