A day of a Beatles playlist, and rehashing old stories with the homies that made me laugh myself to tears three different times, and now I’m out of tears. In a ‘We Are the Champions’ mood. So let me go backward one more time for this one. Very smart producing choice to get the people […]
Mardi Gras time. Haven’t been to New Orleans since pre-Katrina so it’s been awhile. Many of you know my roots are in Louisiana. Need to plan a trip back there for non-funeral reasons. Beautiful version of this song by Dianne Reeves, from the Treme finale. Enjoy.
So I think this dropped right before the Oscars… But, very tragically, one of the trailers that played before the movie I saw yesterday was ‘Sam Rockwell is the leader of the local Ku Klux Klan…but he has a heart of gold!’… So to say this is an evergreen joke is all too real… Brilliant. […]
My annual wrestling post takes on a new form this year; there’s actually a decent movie in theaters right now. ‘Fighting with My Family’ dramatizes the real life story of WWE wrestler Paige (whose been forced to retire at 26 since the production of the film). Born into a family of indie wrestlers, real name […]
I’m out of creative retirement, and the Shuffle hit me with the theme song to the last script I wrote. Beautiful song by the Beatles. Devastating cover by Mister Benson. Just a huge smile on my face whenever I hear this. Enjoy!
Why I can’t stand millenials, reason #923742… For the better part of twenty years, when this intro dropped, I thought of good times. Dallas. Nationals. A few other things you would have to subpoena me for to talk about publicly… The shuffle hit me with this yesterday, and… I immediately started giggling. The memes, the […]
My buddy Dio sent this trailer to me this morning, and… Let me get this straight… A character, surnamed Malik, is transported to an alternate universe where the Beatles didn’t exist, and HE becomes the Beatles?!? I’m not exaggerating; I’ve been so white hot with envy I’ve been walking around most of today looking like […]
We know what’s coming this week. If you don’t, don’t know what to tell you. Don’t feel like everyday will be a love song type of day, but we’ll start that way. Enjoy!
Soderbergh’s latest, ‘High Flying Bird’ is now streaming on Netflix. A few quick points: Directed by Soderbergh is usually an automatic plus one. The ensemble is rounded out by Bill Duke, Zazie Beets, and Sonja Sohn. And when features usually take their time, this one clocked in at 90 minutes. That’s like a plus seven […]
My karma (and my people) came back to me and several ways this morning. Another day in the W column. Let’s dance, or maybe more specifically… Enjoy!
