Alex Gibney, the director of the new documentary Taxi to the Dark Side, agreed to sell the broadcast rights to the Discovery Channel because the people there assured him they would give the film – about an innocent taxi driver who was tortured to death at a prison in Afghanistan – a prominent broadcast. Now, … Continue reading
The Right to be Paid Less. Fuck a union in the mouth. I understand the point of a union. They exist to protect their members. In the film business they exist to create a barrier between the big studios and their controlling ways and the talent. It used to be really messed up and the … Continue reading
The above quote is from Demetri Martin, who pretty much hits the nail on the head for me. I’ve never understood why people put bumper stickers on their car. What’s the logic here? Do you really think I’ll be sitting in traffic behind you one day and say to myself, “Well gee, I oppose McCain’s … Continue reading
Unintentional, Self-Created, Blissfully Unaware Irony Prize Mitt Romney’s concession speech was remarkable for many reasons, not the least of which is that Romney attacked Democrats for wanting to “declare defeat” and “surrender” during his own defeat and surrender speech!

Hillary Clinton, 825 delegates. Barack Obama, 732. I was hoping for more wins for Obama, but he’s put in a good show so far. I told my wife at the beginning of the election cycle, “It’s going to come down to Texas.” I just had that feeling all along that the race was going to … Continue reading
Last night I was thinking about comics, because I’m a nerd, that way. It seems like every time I discuss comic books with someone new, we get into a discussion of “what’s wrong with comics”. Some people dislike how difficult an industry it is to work in. Some don’t like the characters or just find … Continue reading
I want to buy a game system. I used to really enjoy them, back in the day. My last system was the original Playstation. I owned about 5 games and only ever played 2. Prior to that I had the NES, SNES, Sega, I even owned a 3DO and Jaguar for a while. I see … Continue reading
