The London Times recently ran an article about Katherine Heigl and her comments indicating that the ire directed at her by the press (especially the Internet) is the result of sexism. The article wasn’t particularly enlightening, but it did call
When Sarah Palin resigned a few weeks ago every blogger with a keyboard chimed in on it. I didn’t want to be late in the game with a Sarah Palin blog, so I put this blog in the old hard
The term “Jump the Shark” has been with us for a while. The clever metaphor is used for the moment when something of cultural significance begins to lose its luster, and descends into lameness. It is a reference to the
I think I’ve found the most pro-American show on television. True to form, its not produced in Hollywood. Growing up, I was obsessed with “Dr. Who.” In the seventh grade I wore a Tom Baker style scarf to school every
Everybody knows that Global Warming is real. The debate is over. No one with any real common sense would dare challenge the fact that human CO2 production is directly related to rises in temperature. To save the earth from massive
So, Mark Sanford had an affair. Big deal. Who really cares? He screwed up his own life. He screwed over his wife and kids. It happens everyday. His family will deal with it. He will pay a personal price, either
I’m one of the few men in my family not to serve in the military. I am proud to say that I am not proud of this distinction. I regret not showing the valor of my Uncle Walter, who was

Megan Fox recently stated that her solution to a real life evil Transformer invasion would be to negotiate and ask, “instead of the entire planet, can you just take out all of the white trash, hillbilly, anti-gay, super bible-beating people
There is an often overlooked fact in the discussion of the advancement of minorities over the past 100 years. No single group has done more to “level the playing field” bring about “social justice” or move our nation towards equality
This “torture stuff” is complete and utter nonsense. Everyone, take a look at the Al-Qaeda torture handbook, you can read it here. Now, ask yourself why every pundit, Berkeley student, news reporter, and radio DJ is willing to be “waterboarded”
It’s a Trap!!! Admiral Ackbar is one of my favorite characters in the Star Wars franchise. He still looks more real than any CGI character today despite being brought to life by 1982 technology. He also has the immortal line,
In honor of Hollywood’s current trend, I offer you not a new blog entry but instead a sequel to my last post. My little entry had some legs and even garnered a response on the extremist and out of touch
I make silly, fun movies. Stuff you pick up at your local Blockbuster or watch on the Sci-fi Channel. I’ve always said that most of my films, because of budget limitations, end up being “two star” movies, but with a
The more I watch clips like Janeane Garofalo’s appearance on the Olbermann show, the more I’m convinced that its not real. That’s right. Allow me to introduce to the world a new form of “trutherism.” I have discovered a new
