Ranked

Hello, One of the things I noticed while I was researching Moonraker's standings with Bond fans is that there a million best of lists for James Bond movies and they're all garbage. All of them. There is no consistency where what movies lay where on the rankings. Oh sure, you'll see From Russia With Love, Casino Royale and The … Continue reading Ranked →

Made to Order

Hello, I don't cook that often. My obsessiveness leads me to constantly rework the same thing over and over and over again until I'm finally happy with the finished product and then I will continue to make that thing and nothing else to the end of my days. I have a recipe for chocolate chip … Continue reading Made to Order →

Raked Over the Coals: In Defense of Moonraker

Hello, I want to talk about Moonraker. Not the book. The movie. The criminally underrated movie. On most lists ranking Bond movies, lists by the way that are all shockingly wrong, Moonraker is usually toward the bottom, sometimes below such objectively awful entries like Diamonds Are Forever and Never Say Never Again. I just watched Moonraker for the … Continue reading Raked Over the Coals: In Defense of Moonraker →

Soundtrack

Hello, Music and I have an iffy relationship at best. I've never been the kind of person who sits and just...listens to music. The idea of doing that doesn't even really make sense to me, although I'm aware that my attention span requires a very specific set of circumstances to keep me in my seat. … Continue reading Soundtrack →

Walking Around

Hello, I do a lot of walking, mostly by choice. It's become my go-to when I have something I want to mull over, when I don't want to think, when I just want to space out time. Because walking doesn't eat up miles. It takes time. What would take minutes by car now takes an … Continue reading Walking Around →

disconnected

Hello, I lost the internet today. I'm not exactly devastated by the loss, but it's cramped my style, at least as far as blogging goes. So, I'm going to apologize in advance for what's going to be a tedious entry. But, God as my witness, I hate writing on my phone. Texting, blogging, snapping: whatever … Continue reading disconnected →

Across the Pond

Hello, I'll be leaving the country soon and it will be the first time that I've done so since I've gotten here. I'm excited about it, but I don't think I've really processed it yet. And to be clear, we're going to London, so this is not as out there as we could possibly go. … Continue reading Across the Pond →

By the Light of A Collapsing Star

Hello, I want to talk about this article and everything that this article entails. I'm not going to summarize it. It's required reading for this blog entry. I genuinely and truly believe that humanity is advancing toward the light. We are progressing, as a whole, toward being better. I am not looking for perfection or utopia … Continue reading By the Light of A Collapsing Star →

An Update

Hello, It's been seventeen days since I start to write continuously, both in this blog and off the blog and I don't know how this is impacting me at this point. On the one hand, I've written more in this short two weeks than I did in the last six months prior to starting this … Continue reading An Update →

Neon Night Terrors

Hello, I love 80's horror. Love it. It is my favorite era of my favorite genre of movie. I love the excess of 80's horror. It's big an it's gory and it splatters and explodes across the screen. It's an enormous, backwoods madman in a hockey mask swinging a machete. It's a demon invading nightmares … Continue reading Neon Night Terrors →
