Friday Funnies

It was 10 years ago (good god) that Old School came out and graced our movie theaters. A great movie, and full of fantastic scenes, especially ones involving Vince Vaughn. The wife has always said that his role in this movie is what I may very well end up like. I’m cool with that. […]

No joke, I was fooled. I saw trailers for Ted and thought it looked funny, but figured the best parts were in the trailer. I’ve been burnt too many times. But damnit, this movie is hilarious. It features two hours of one of my favorite things: Animal humor. Love it. Always comes through for me, […]

Over the holiday break the wife and I took in the movie version of Les Miserables, because nothing says Christmas like rape, prostitution, violence against children, and a heavy-handed dose of god, all with musical accompaniment. Naturally, afterward the wife several times muttered to me, “Vive la revolution!” And instead of smiling and thinking about […]

Well, it’s Christmas time, so I have to bring up some holiday classics that I love for the Friday Funnies. This time around, we’re going with Scrooged. This is not the funniest clip from this movie, but since my mother has so lovingly declared this year to be the Campbell Family Christmas of Coal. Apparently […]

Because ever since I saw this movie I don’t think I can enter a steakhouse without checking the menu to see if they have something in line with the ol 96er. And the thought of eating a plate of gristle makes me want to vomit. But in a funny kind of way, much like getting […]

My Childhood Bastardized

And the hits keep on coming from Hollywood. They are continuing to dip into the well of my childhood (or near-childhood, at least) and take things that I remember and sometimes deeply appreciate and mock sad mockeries or interpretations out of them. First up is Carrie. This movie doesn’t come out until 2013, but let’s […]

Tuesday was the 25th anniversary of “The Princess Bride” being released in theaters. I can’t actually recall whether I saw this movie in the theaters or not. Problem is, I know I’ve seen it twice for special screening type things in high school and college, so those memories cloud the past. Nevertheless, it’s in the […]

Trailer Love

I know it’s been awhile since I was on the blog. Believe me, it was hurting me more than it was hurting the 8 of you. This most recent class was a real test of skill and time management, so some things had to wait (like blogging, and my career move into synchronized horse dancing). […]

Trailer Love

I’m always intrigued by a good conspiracy theory. Heck, I even created one from whole cloth for our fantasy football league that we still reference to this day six years later. The Kennedy assassination, the Matrix, Roswell, the Pentaverate, (Ok, so two of those are fictional) and others always pique my interest. I would not […]
