Film Quote Friday
The first time I realized that there was something of a ‘geek subculture’ was when the movie TRON came out. The big ‘tentpole’ movies of geekdom — Star Wars, Superman, The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark, ET … Continue reading

With new trailers for the new James Bond movie Skyfall hitting the Interweb this week, I turn my thoughts back a few years to Daniel Craig’s first outing as Bond, Casino Royale. CR was extremely well made, and with all … Continue reading

2001: A Space Odyssey is a masterpiece in several ways: it’s one of the great films, and it’s also one of the great science fiction stories. Stanley Kubrick’s vision can seem a bit impenetrable, but while he does make the … Continue reading

Here’s a bit from one of my favorite movies of the last ten years. I truly, genuinely believe this movie to be absolute comedic genius. In the 1970s, “legendary” San Diego news anchorman Rob Burgundy, and his cohorts Champ Kind … Continue reading

Well, I’ve already been a day late a couple of times, and last week, I missed this series completely. Par for the course with regular features here! Anyhow…. I love this silly, raunchy, hilarious ode to how a few men … Continue reading

Film Quote Friday (Saturday edition)
Well, it didn’t take long for me to miss a day on this feature, did it? Oops! Thursday was largely taken up by a reinstallation of Windows on the Main Library Computer here at Casa Jaquandor, and Friday was one … Continue reading

Yup, it’s baseball! Specifically, my favorite baseball movie of all time, Bull Durham. I won’t wax totally poetic about the movie, having done that before, but…I’ve got baseball on the brain. Why? Well, I have a friend at work whose … Continue reading

In honor of Morgan Freeman, who turns 75 today, here’s a bit from my favorite thing he’s done. (Which is probably everybody‘s favorite thing he’s done, but…) Here’s the first scene where Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) starts to bend prison … Continue reading
