In the early rounds of 90’s Film Frenzy I provided y’all with as much information as I could about each movie, including the big stars we allegedly flock to the theater to see.

Welcome back to Round 2 of 90’s Film Frenzy!! We went thru the Dope and Phat divisions a couple of weeks ago and I apologize for the delay. I won’t bore y’all with a long preamble because discussion of these great movies is lengthy enough, but let me take this opportunity to wish The Manoverse… Read More 90’s Film Frenzy: Fly Round 2
I am not a “prisoner of the moment” kind of guy. I’m 45 years old so I’m not an old fogey, but neither am I hip, cool, woke, with it, or worried about keeping up with the crowd.

Wassupppp?!?!?? Y’all ready to get jiggy up in here?? Booyah!! There’s a meme out there that says something to the effect of “when someone mentions the 90’s you think ‘ten years ago’, even though the decade actually ended nearly 20 years ago”. I can completely relate. I graduated from high school in 1990 (damn… Read More 90’s Film Frenzy: An Introduction
Less than a year ago…right after Christmas…I commented on Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas, and this year they are having the same issues. With streaming options the entire Christmas movie watching process has evolved, but for those who don’t have a streaming player and anyone of a certain age who is used to watching their… Read More Merry Movie Mayhem: Mistletoe (Round 2)
Welcome back to Merry Movie Mayhem!! If you have not yet perused first round action in the Candy Cane and Eggnog divisions please follow the links to check it out.

A semi-regular attempt to address some of life’s minutiae that might otherwise be overlooked….. Perhaps I spoke too soon about Donald Trump. The Donald has now taken to bashing former President George W. Bush about 9/11 and bragging that, had President Trump been in charge on that awful day 14 years… Read More Points of Ponderation…..Episode 8.15
Finally. After over a year we have entered hallowed ground…The Top 10. This will be the last group of five, as I will give each of the top five movies their own entry.
