Ferrari: Must See

Posted on January 10, 2024 by Steve

Several years ago, there was the hit movie Ford v. Ferrari, I liked it but I was still cheering for Ferrari because Ford has always (and still does) made shit cars with the horrible DNA of its founder in them. Henry … Continue reading →

The King of Comedy

Posted on August 31, 2023 by Steve

Before he became the grumpy grandpa who bitches about Marvel movies while all he does lately are Mafia flicks, Scorsese used to make other stuff such as this. When it was first released in 1983, it tanked! The movie cost … Continue reading →

RIP to Alan Arkin

Posted on July 28, 2023 by Steve

One big overdue tribute to a comedy legend alongside two rather recent passings. I wanted to get them out of the way before my big 55 day tomorrow since nothing but fun, fun and happiness over the next 24 hours! … Continue reading →

RIP Treat Williams

Posted on June 20, 2023 by Steve

I know he passed away in a motorcycle accident last week but given what a heavy week was last week, I put him off with some others out of respect for our four-legged fuzzballs, still missing them. Treat was a … Continue reading →

Cast Away

Posted on March 31, 2023 by Steve

Another movie I decided to watch out of self hate I guess. Given the performance, story line and how a modern-day Robinson Crusoe could pan out; another book which will be modified for the thin-skinned faux liberal peal clutchers; this would’ve … Continue reading →

RIP Paul Sorvino

Posted on July 26, 2022 by Steve

Another great actor who played villains and not just gangsters as per Goodfellas; he was Kissinger in Oliver Stone’s Nixon, head of the Capulet family in the horrible 1996 take on Romeo & Juliet, The Stuff and The Rocketeer. He even did cartoon voice work via Duckman and Hey … Continue reading →

RIP Ray Liotta

Posted on May 27, 2022 by Steve

Given his substance issues, it’s amazing he lived this long honestly. Somebody already had a mean joke too, I guess the drug Channix does work, he did stop smoking. Ouch! Ray burst on the scene for most of us via Goodfellas, the most … Continue reading →

RIP Ed Asner

Posted on August 30, 2021 by Steve

It was sad to hear about Ed’s passing while Kathy and I were in the middle of working on our podcasts. He was a helluva’ person! Not just a great heavy in movies/TV, but a person who put his money … Continue reading →

Happy posthumous birthday to Robin Williams

Posted on July 21, 2021 by Steve

Today would’ve been his 70th birthday and we really needed him during the Girth Vader years to make us intelligent and empathetic people cope better. I do feel somewhat bad about liking Robin again near the end of his life … Continue reading →

RIP: Clarence Williams III & Ned Beatty

Posted on June 14, 2021 by Steve

These gentlemen were staples on both screens in the Seventies. Clarence got his start in the Sixties with the groundbreaking cop show The Mod Squad on ABC. Three undercover officers who were young enough looking to infiltrate evil gangs of Hippies … Continue reading →

Greyhound

Posted on August 27, 2020 by Steve

It has been a while since I wrote about a movie or two. That doesn’t mean I stopped watching them…I’ve slowed as I’m binge watching a slew of animated shows, plus staying on top of Lovecraft Country. Here’s the one … Continue reading →

The Cooler

Posted on June 21, 2020 by Steve

While Jennifer is walking me through all the Netflix-available seasons of Shameless, she introduced me to this movie I somehow overlooked a couple decades ago. I dig movies set in Las Vegas with two exceptions…The Hangover, not funny; Leaving Las Vegas, super … Continue reading →

Killing Them Softly

Posted on May 13, 2020 by Steve

Killing was a rather mediocre Crime movie set around the final days of the 2008 election. There’s so much yapping, you’d think David Mamet wrote this but it’s loosely based upon a book I’m not going to look up. Brad Pitt … Continue reading →

Bad Company

Posted on May 5, 2020 by Steve

Besides being the first movie to use the title Bad Company (the name reappeared in 1995 and 2002, both as modern Action flicks), we can also blame the 1972 period piece for giving the AOR band its name; Paul Rodgers loved … Continue reading →

Kingdom: two seasons

Posted on May 3, 2020 by Steve

When I thought nothing more could be done with the Zombie trope, this joint Netflix-Korean production proved me wrong. The zombies are more like ghouls since they can run and you must watch the series through its first two seasons … Continue reading →
