This movie had a lot of assumptions made about it, good and bad, from people all over the country before it even ran a single frame. The director, Roland Emmerich, is responsible for such summer blockbuster fare as Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow, and the awesomely bad Godzilla. He has earned a reputation of [...]

“This Is It” – Michael Jackson
So two thoughts are going through my head as I’m sitting in the theater getting ready to watch This Is It. First of all, I was blown away by the crowd that was gathered in this smaller theater even when the movie has been out for a week or more. Every age group was represented, [...]
iTunes Blues
So if you’re anything like me, when it comes to my computer and files, I like things organized and easy to use. Especially when it comes to my music and videos as that is a large part of what fills my computer. Unfortunately, that seems to be the antithesis of what iTunes is all about. [...]
Winter Survival Kit
Well, the snow is falling, windows are freezing, and energy bills across the country are shooting up. It’s winter in Montana, and it actually is my favorite time of year. I know it sounds crazy, but being hot-blooded as I am, I can’t stand the heat of the summer. I really prefer the weather to [...]
2MMR: District 9
So after a long time of having to wait, I finally got to see District 9 last night. I’d been careful to avoid listening to too many reviews or spoilers because I really wanted to experience this movie on its own merits and not just follow the hype. I’ve got to say that I’m glad [...]
Fall TV Preview
Ahhh…this really is my favorite time of year. September is this magical month where everything in the world starts to change for the better. The weather finally cools down to a bearable temperature. Football is being played in fields and stadiums across the country. And TV shows are coming back to primetime after a long [...]
2MMR – The Soloist
The Soloist
This was one of those movies that you see the preview for, it looks good, but you won’t get around to it ‘til it’s on DVD. (That’s why the Redbox is my friend.) This one though, I wish I would’ve seen a lot sooner. The movie is based on a true story that took [...]
Sermon Series Review
Trial: 8 Witnesses from 1 & 2 Peter
A sermon series from Mars Hill Church
So I’ve been listening to the sermons from Mars Hill for almost three years now, and I have yet to hear a series that I didn’t enjoy. But this most recent series, which just finished two weeks ago, really packed some powerful [...]
Two-minute movie reviews
The Ugly Truth
We saw this movie on a date night a week or two ago, it was actually a wonderful moment where Stacy looked me in the eye and said, “Why don’t we go to a movie tonight?” This does not happen every day. I’ll see anything you want if you come up and [...]
Why…because I can…
So I’m starting this blog mostly as a means to talk about things that interest me. I do hope that it can help to increase my exposure and help me get some work, but for the most part, I’m doing this because I have a website, and so I can do whatever I want on [...]
