I didn’t think it possible that a new movie by a filmmaker as important as Spike Lee could creep by me, but this one has, until now. A trailer was just put up on Yahoo! Movies for Miracle at St. Anna, his latest film, based on a novel of the same name by James McBride, who … Continue reading
I sucked hard at this. How about you? (via waxy.org)
When a film strikes a chord deep within you, I’m talking about when it really speaks to you on a profound level, it’s indescribable.

Size Queen vs. Rice Queen: Who wins? What’s your favorite swear word. Tell us about that odd time you ended up … Continue reading
Do you want my long personal history with video games spelled out in detail? No you don’t, because this isn’t Aint It Cool News. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that!) So short version: I’m a male born in the 1970’s and have played every major system along the way, albeit very casually for the … Continue reading
