I was wandering through the new flicks on Netflix this weekend when I ran into this listing. Based on a Japanese folk legend that echoes the tale of Robin Hood, this ninja thriller follows the exploits of Goemon Ishikawa (Yôsuke Eguchi), who leaves his fighting clan after its chief is murdered and uses his skills [...]
I’m Still Trying to Come Up With a Title for My Book
I just thought of another good one, “Philosophy is an Action.” If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I’ve already written down some predictions of what people will think of it, and I want to check my work. Joel, you first.
The Dark Bailout (and Joker vs. Joker)
Here’s a couple quick mash-ups made from “The Dark Knight” and Heath Ledger’s soon to be legendary performance. When I rent a movie, I might watch it once before returning. This one I’ve watched at least 3 times, and will probably *gasp* by a $.015 piece of plastic for $20 just to have a copy [...]
The Greatest Movie Speech EVAR!!!
This is some good editing. If you need to get fired up, this is two-minutes and fifteen seconds of hella awesome. found over yonder. Regarding the tags… there were three I didn’t know, two right after Sean Connery does his thing, and the one right after Hoosiers…I think I got the rest (with slight googling [...]
Movie Review: Indiana Jones and the Stupid Alien Artifact
I avoided this movie in the theatre. I even refused to buy it, or rent it myself. I remember seeing a Southpark episode about Steven Spielberg and George Lucas going around raping everyone as a metaphor for this movie. I didn’t think it could could be that bad. I’m glad to admit, and this doesn’t [...]
Move Review: There Will Be Blood!
Just a quick review on this one. It was nominated for a bunch of awards and I had wanted to see it for some time, but didn’t get the chance until this weekend. It is a very deliberately paced and honestly told story of a oil-man in Southern California. It goes through the trials and [...]
The Astronaut Musk
SpaceX has made history. Its privately developed rocket has made it into space. After three failed launches, the company founded by Elon Musk worked all of the bugs out of their Falcon 1 launch vehicles. The entire spectacle was broadcast live from Kwajalein Atoll in the South Pacific. Cameras mounted on the spacecraft showed our [...]
Movie Review: Pineapple Express
As someone in the target demographic for this movie, I’m was hoping to enjoy it a good deal more than I did. Even going to the Inwood Theatre here in Dallas couldn’t save my movie experience, and that includes chilling on couches and drinking a cocktail. I can certainly see how some people (i.e. young [...]
Movie Review: Gonzo: HST on the Screen
Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (2008) Rated R for drug and sexual content, language and some nudity. Not to mention a few subversive themes, some seriously whacked out thoughts and a cultural revolution that failed….mostly. Overall I really enjoyed the re-mix/documentary. It’s not like HST hasn’t been covered before in [...]
