This blog shall stop at nothing and stay there, bringing all undiscerning readers up to date information about significant items of interest and intrigue that will certainly be interesting to someone somewhere at sometime. I shall also try to avoid being vague.
As I write this in August 2025, there is still an opportunity to watch incredible creatures eating folks in your local theaters. No, I’m not talking about the unsettling weirdness that is Pedro Pascal in Fantastic Four: First Steps, you sillies! I mean dinosaurs! Honest to goodness, slathered with CGI dinosaurs! Yes, there are probably …

I apologize for the length of time it has taken for me to get back on the saddle to get back in the saddle as well in writing. I would love to give a few excuses, but they would all pale in comparison to the truth: I was on a classified mission to save the …

Tis a rare day indeed when I and the good missus can get away from our offspring to have a half-arsed day date to see a film in a theater. So, when the opportunity presented itself that the grandparents would mind the children for three hours, we left before they could change their minds and …

Well, here we are for the first time as we were before once again. Yes, that is the way that I have decided to start this blog post commemorating the beginning of a new year by going back to the winter of 2016! And hopefully this clickbait title will drag in the readers, who will become …
