This Looks Fantastic

New On the Blog - This Looks Fantastic (it really does)

In the spirit of staying positive and not reacting to the state of things right now, here’s another trailer (for a movie this time) that I think looks great. I’m sure you’ve seen it by now, but if not, here it is. I’m talking, of course, about the recent (teaser) trailer for Marvel’s upcoming The Fantastic Four: First Steps. In a word, it looks, well, fantastic. Yes, I went there. Can you blame…

This Looks Great

New On the Blog. This Looks Great

I was (and still am) a big fan of most of the Netflix Marvel series from several years ago. I enjoyed the shows, especially Daredevil and Jessica Jones Season One. The rest were various degrees of good to great, with one major exception. But no, we don’t need to talk about Iron Fist unless we’re talking about Jessica Henwick, then yes. She was the best thing in that series and hopefully we’ll see…

Staying Positive

Now that I’ve decided to get back to the blog and content that I own and control, one big problem with blogging continues to be the same after all these years (at least for me): What the heck to write about? It’s difficult coming up with topics and attempting, in your own way, to make sense of said topic or your particular “take” on it. But I guess that’s a problem with all creative endeavors,…

Weekly Roundup 2.24.24

New On the Blog - Weekly Roundup 2.24.24 #anime #lordoftherings #demonslayer

Wow, The last time I updated here was on 2.2.24 and now it’s 2.24.24. I find that weird . . . and kinda cool. How about you? I’ll bet you do also. Maybe? A little? Okay. Whatever. I’m just trying to keep it light. Or lite. Or, you know, the opposite of heavy . . . or serious. You get the idea. Anyway. What have I been watching, reading, listening to or otherwise distracting myself with lately?…

(Semi)Weekly Roundup 2.2.24

New! (Semi)Weekly Roundup 2.2.24

Well, we made it through 2023 and now here it is 2024. And February too. Imagine that. I was pretty sure we could pull it off, but you never really know until you know. You know? Yes, that’s an awkward sentence above. But what do you expect? It’s an election year so prepare yourself for a whole lot of awkward sentences and whole lot of other bullshit. I know, I feel it too. That sense of…

Weekly Roundup 11.10.23

Another week, another weekly roundup. I like how that sounds. This week I’ve got another bunch of things I’m interested in, watching, reading or whatever. In other words, If I like it, it’s probably something I’m going to talk about this week or in the near future. What can I say? I like to share. But before I get to the (more) interesting stuff I just wanted to mention I’m currently writing this…

Weekly Roundup 11.3.23

New On the Blog - Weekly Roundup 11.3.23

I’m starting/restarting a thing here on the blog. What is this thing, you may wonder? Well, glad you asked. I’m calling it the ‘Weekly Roundup’ and will be items of interest and/or links I found interesting during the week or continue to find interesting or useful on a regular or semi-regular basis. I won’t be talking much about or linking to anything to do with the current situation in the…

I Guess I'm Back

New On The Blog -

I think the great Twitter / X / Medium / whatever experiment is over. I’ve devoted a lot of time and energy to those places and what is there to show for it, really? Not much. In the case of something like Twitter / X it was nice to meet a few people and nice to engage in some conversations . . . until it wasn’t. Now, well, let’s just say shithole doesn’t really begin to describe it. I do feel…

New Home, Same Stuff

Hello to all of you who follow this blog. I do appreciate you. Just wanted to take a minute to let you know I’ve left Media Temple and moved my whole operation to new hosting. Why did I do this? Well, one big reason and a few smaller ones. The big one is Media Temple was purchased by Go Daddy. I don’t like Go Daddy. Never have, never will. So, that’s a big “No” for me. The smaller reasons have to…

Begun, The Social Media War Has

Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on with Twitter these days either. Since Musky took over it seems to be going downhill fast(er). Not that it wasn’t kinda a shitshow before he came along and decided he knew best how to run things. Sure, sparky. How’s that going for you? Even with the increased bullshit I’ve decided to hang in there and not delete my account just yet. Why? I’m not 100% sure. I…
