EW’s 100 Greatest Movies
UPDATE and EDIT: I screwed up somehow the first time I posted this — entries 34 through 50 were Roger’s, not mine. I’ve changed it to reflect my actual views! ANOTHER UPDATE: I missed The Wizard of Oz on here. … Continue reading
This means something. This is important.
So The Wife and I took a few hours a couple weeks back to wander the aisles and corridors and back corners and nooks and crannies (but, sadly, no dimly-lit basement!) of the Orchard Park Antique Mall. This wonderful space, … Continue reading
A possibly depressing exercise
I’ve written of this before, but the names change every year, so let’s do it again! For me, when I think of an ‘old movie’, my brain always defaults to Casablanca, which by the time of my awareness of its … Continue reading
“This never-ending road to Calvary….” (Thoughts on Les Miserables)
It all comes back to Star Wars, doesn’t it? Even Les Miserables. What am I talking about? Well, back when The Phantom Menace came out, and initial reaction was somewhat mixed (before ossifying into outright hatred), I remember an article … Continue reading

“Let the sky fall….”
On Thanksgiving Day, The Wife and I have a relatively new tradition of going to see a movie together after dinner (and sending The Daughter off packing with my parents). We’ve done this six of the last seven Thanksgivings, and … Continue reading
“We’ll always have Paris.”
Casablanca premiered seventy years ago today. Wow. I haven’t watched Casablanca in a while (checking the archives, it’s been too damned long, actually), so I think I may rectify that pretty soon. The making of Casablanca is so full of … Continue reading

[A note from The Editor to Saturday Centus folks: I screwed up my link and linked the main page of the blog and not the Centus entry, so just scroll down to the very next post. Or read this one … Continue reading
Alien, Episode One: The Phantom Alien
So I watched Prometheus a week or two ago, and I’ve been struggling to come up with a reaction more nuanced than this, but…well, this is how I felt about it. Prometheus is a stunningly made film. It’s one of … Continue reading
