“He’ll save every one of us!”
So a couple of weeks ago I attended a special screening of a very special movie: This was in conjunction with Buffalo’s new comic-con, Nickel City Con, and what a night it was! In 1980, at the height of the … Continue reading

The Force will be with you always: STAR WARS at 40
I didn’t see Star Wars on opening day. In truth I don’t even remember exactly when I saw it, but it was later in the summer of 1977. We had just moved from Wisconsin to Oregon, and in that time … Continue reading

“It’s time for the Jedi to end”
So last week the first trailer for Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi hit. Here it is! I actually don’t have a whole lot to say about it. This isn’t out of any lack of excitement for the movie, … Continue reading
“Let me help” (Thoughts on “The City on the Edge of Forever”, on its 50th anniversary)
Edith Keeler: And you, um, don’t want to talk about it? Why? Oh. Did you… did you do something wrong? Are you afraid of something? Whatever it is, let me help. Capt. Kirk: “Let me help.” A hundred years or … Continue reading
“I am one with the Force and the Force is with me”
So there’s a new STAR WARS movie in town. Yup, we finally saw Rogue One, on the day after New Year’s. This was not due to any lack of enthusiasm, mind you, but simply the travails and tribulations of trying … Continue reading
