It is here on this cold December day just a little less than three weeks shy of Christmas that I felt the warmth of New Mexico’s High Desert in my living room, after having watched John Grabowska’s documentary film, Remembered Earth: New Mexico’s High Desert. This half hour feature will allow one to witness the [...]

Comic-Con started in 1970 as a small gathering of devoted comic-book fans with a solid group of creators and fan favorites. It was very little different from the scores of other conventions throughout the country other than being in a great climate and having more than their share of talent willing to meet the fans [...]

So far this year, two films have given me great pleasure that being Mamma Mia and The Duchess. Both very different films by contrast, one from a stage play which at first the critics said would not work. but in fact has proven a great success. I went to see Mamma Mia on my own [...]

The Best Comedies for the Home Collection “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” is the best comedy ever made. An historical spoof by the British comedy troupe Monty Python, it is not only hysterically funny but is also one of the few movies ever made that puts the Arthurian Legend in it’s proper time-frame. This [...]

The year 2009 has gotten off to an undistinguished start as far as offerings on the big screen are concerned. X-Men: Wolverine, the Origin, was okay as far as it went, but it didn’t even begin to match its predecessors. The hope for moviegoers is in the offerings from across the two big ponds from [...]

Actually for me the quality of movies is getting better. Especially British movies, in the last year alone, Hot Fuzz, Atonement, and now Stardust, all very different films but with some very good casting and writers to boot. I am a great movie fan, but have found the music of these films can also affect [...]
