It’s here. It’s big. And it’s not going anywhere soon. Inception opened in theaters this morning at 12 AM and pretty much everyone on my contacts list were MIA for 142 minutes. The hype behind Inception was incredibly well-received. Audiences packed in theaters and as I type, are still crowding them. I am visiting Savannah … Continue reading
Imagine that you’re sitting at your couch, watching some movie or a TV show. You’re watching plot twists, great tension and character development. A whole world is opening itself up to you and you’re having a great time. The show ends, you get up for a snack, and at some point between the couch and … Continue reading
This blog is a cop-out, I’m sorry to have to do this to you but I have been I’ll since Friday night and today is the first time I have actually felt well enough to concentrate on putting together a blog. So instead of a normal blog please except my apologies and some unconnected random … Continue reading
Inception is a movie that will be talked about for years. There will be a lot of comparisons thrown around the second it hits theaters. People will strain to define it. Here are some of the movies that will come up (or have already been name-checked, in the advance reviews): Blade Runner. The Matrix. … Continue reading
In some ways, I think I would have made a good soldier. I’m completely amoral, have a good mind for tactics, and I’ve a hearty lust for bloodshed.

Hi, folks. I figured I’d smash together some of my favorite things and show them to you so you can judge me. Enjoy. DEADWOOD I’m well into the second season (idiots stopped making the show after the third.) If you don’t know what it’s about, it’s the story of a town that’s sprung up during … Continue reading
I first saw Metropolis a couple of years ago and instantly recognized it for the classic it is. But as much as I wanted this DVD, I never went out to buy it. Why? Because I knew that this was coming and I wanted to bide my time. For those who don’t know, Metropolis was … Continue reading
Because then he could become Sgt. Pepper! HA! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ha. Right then. I’ve decided to take a different approach here at Fine-Toothed Coombs. Up until this point, there hasn’t been a real “style” per se to my ramblings. I’d pretty much just liquor up and start typing about whatever my whiskey-soaked brain could hold onto … Continue reading
Between the tag-team review that Renn and Nick did last week and the write-ups some of my fellow CHUD Bloggers have been offering up in their respective blogs about the movie Predators, it seems rather redundant for me to deliver yet another blast of white noise that’ll just vanish into the ether with the rest … Continue reading
Now, just to clear the air, I’m probably incredibly biased in this blog (more than usual) due to Christopher Nolan having the honor of being my favorite director. Guys, we’re almost there. It’s Wednesday and we’re only 2 days away from Inception hitting every theater that’s worth existing. The reviews are pouring in and about … Continue reading
