Lights Out Films

Hey now

I'm still alive and kicking. And since I'm writing this on my not-iPhone, I haven't checked to see when the last time I updated. Oh great. A month ago. I'm glad I don't do this for a living.

DVD Review: 2 Fast 2 Furious

I was really generous with this movie - I think I should watch it again and make more fun of it:

In the Realms of the Unreal

I have the feeling that I'm going to get a lot of weird Google search results after posting this review. Read on:

I'm writing this using voice dictation software. I know, I've done this before. I always think that it's the way to continue to write on a more consistent basis. But of course it never does because it requires its own special amount of work. the accuracy on this latest version is really good. But still you have to pay attention in order to catch mistakes. If you wait too long to correct them you'll forget that you had even written anything incorrectly.

DVD Review: The Punisher (1989)

Punch List

1. Add RSS from this blog to excerpt to the front page bottom

The Dangerous Book For Boys

The Dangerous Book For Boys You can certainly tell that these writers, (and brothers) are steadfast in their assertion that you just try and not worry too much about the very unlikely event that you'll get hurt. They give you a heads up on ways to do things but don't flail their hands in the air about the danger. Go do it, the book says, and see what happens.

Things

I wouldn't say that there are a lot of good things going on at the main site, but there's definitely some activity. I've finished most of the tweaking and I'll slowly being churning out some of the old chesnuts in the wordpress format. Everything's automated, including category archives and the way that it posts on the front page. Two of the biggest pains that I had trying to keep that site going in any kind of way. Visit: www.lightsoutfilms.com

FIGHT!

Workin'

Still working on the main site. Take a look: www.lightsoutfilms.com. Getting to somewhere I guess. At least the new host is $12 a month instead of $30. I work on it in 30 minute increments at night after work and the gym, so you may think that I don't care that much about it, and you'd be right. But people are still looking for old reviews, so I want to make sure that they can get them. And, after the wedding, and as work on our house slows (but doesn't finish, there's still tons more to do), I may have some time to start watching some more flicks and being a little bitch about it.

crap

hi there. my head hurts.

Jackass Two

I just finished watching Jackass 2. And you know that phrase go big or go home? Knoxville went big. For someone that makes something like 5 million dollars per picture there's nothing that he wouldn't do. For that alone, I think he should win an Academy Award. Why would he want to risk his acting career for something like this?

In Praise of Convergence

Up until about a year ago, I was under the impression that the cell phone would never replace the home computer as a primary working device. This was of course based on the fact that devices were devoid of easy to use text composing tools and lacked integration with the web. If you wanted to write a blog entry you needed to go to a fully compliant web browser and compose it online. Now it's a matter of sending an email to a special address.

Pyongyang

Watching a primetime special on ABC about North Korea, and it really is the best media that I've seen on the country. Nothing before has really struck at the strangeness of the country and everday life for most of the citizens. I read a book about Kim Jong Il that gave detail of his genesis but precious little about the sci-fi like world that he has created.
