• Impossible Odds

  There is something about going up against it. I love movies when you honestly can not tell how it is going to turn out. Are all our heroes going to make it out alive? Will they accomplish the mission? So many times, we see a movie, and everything gets wrapped up in a nice, neat…

• Time Travel

  I have loved time travel as a concept since I saw the first Back to the Future. I mean I was aware of time travel as a concept. The HG Wells novel the Time Machine turned into the movie starring Rod Taylor back in 1960. There was a short-lived series called Voyagers! I loved that…

• Laughing Scared: Five Horror Comedies

      I love a good laugh and I love a good scare. To great taste that taste great together. Horror comedy is so hard to do, but when done right it definitely works. In my younger years, and now of course, horror was little difficult for me. In my teens I loved all those…

• I Don’t Think We are Going To Make It: Five Disaster Films.

  

  I love a big budget disaster movie. The effects the cast and the story all melded together to send you on a thrill ride. We see these pop up from time to time. As the technology got better, we got more fanciful effects driven stories of carnage and change. The story is always key to…

• Living the Dream: Five Music Movies

  

  There was a time when music was my life’s blood. Stealing my dad’s guitar and learning Beatles songs with the greatest hits song book and that blue greatest hits album and practice, when I really should have been studying. My first band, with like a hundred names. When I was with them, we started out…
