I’m still working on writing up my thoughts on TRON: Legacy (which I hope to get done this week), but I had to write about this in the meantime. At the Golden Globes last night, these films were considered for the Best Original Score Category: Alexandre Desplat - The King’s Speech Danny Elfman - Alice in Wonderland A. R.

Somebody sent me this link today: Tron Legacy may fall short at box office We will see soon enough, but from what I’ve seen of the movie I have to disagree. I think anyone that sees the movie is going to be enamored of it, and will most likely see it again. It really is an immersive experience with the [...]

Just watched the “re-make” of the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. I’m not sure what I think of it. I love the original, and it was fun to see someone try and do something with it.

The kiosk that sits in McDonalds (or various other places now) and allows you to rent a DVD for one night for the low price of a buck and tax, of course (the Government has a healthcare plan to fund). I started to wonder why some of the posters and “cover art” [...]

Yesterday my kids wanted to watch a movie. My eldest son went down stairs and brought up a couple that he wanted to “run past me” and see if we could watch. The first was “Superman Returns” from a couple years ago. I’m not really a huge fan of the film. That is another post for another time, but let’s [...]

Nothing new going on for a while. There has been some Marvel casting news for the upcoming Thor movie. Two unknowns will play Thor and Loki. Whoop dee doo! Not much to talk about really. The US Economy still sucks. I have been busy at my job, which I guess is good. School is wrapping up for my kids, meaning [...]
