I'm a movie fan and physical media collector. I mostly enjoy pre-code, lower budget and harder to find films. I'm on Letterboxed too. I lean left and believe in basic human rights for everyone!

If you are MAGA and now you have remorse because you lost your business or your job, don't expect sympathy from me. You put a grifter in office because of your hateful views, now you have to suck it up. Lets face it, you would vote for him again over a multiracial woman. Proving you are a POS!

It's nice that people have waken up and are now protesting. But he shouldn't have been reelected in the first place. Too many people sat on the sidelines because they won't vote for a woman. Too many people didn't like her stance on the middle east. Too many thought he would only deport criminals.

I am aware that as we age we will begin to see more people we know shuffle off this mortal coil. But two in one week seems a bit excessive.

Back in November I told my then co-worker and MAGA loyalist, that the Velveeta Voldemort was going to crash the economy. Once again my crystal ball was correct. The stock market is in the toilet, along with my retirement account. I fucking hate being right about stuff like this.

The Awful Truth (1937)
It's a comedy and I laughed, so that's a good thing. Watched Penny Serenade about a month ago. Next up, My Favorite Wife.

The American Nightmare (2000)
I was a kid, but I remember the horrors of, duck and cover, Kent State,Vietnam etc. This has some top notch directors talking about growing up in a cold war world and how it affected their views and their film making. For a more in-depth review see Letterboxd.

Dear Bluesky algorithms what part of my post or likes made you flood my feed with wrestling post. I'm not interested in any sports, let alone half naked sweaty men, rolling around in a Wrestling ring together and then yelling ridiculous lines.

Just watched, Leprechaun (1993) again, because my wife had never seen it. Watching cheesy horror with her is so much fun. She keeps telling the character's what to do. 😂

Iron Man (1931)
Not bad, but it's hard to judge when all I can find is a 68 minute version. The original running time is 73. The copy I found had missing scenes and the audio was atrocious. I realize that this has fallen into public domain, but that's no reason to let it fade into obscurity.

My Review of, The Haunted Castle(House of the Devil) 1896
Modern filmmakers owe a lot to Georges Méliès. He created movie magic. George does in a few minutes what many directors can't do in two hours. He coveys an idea, telling a story, no CGI or AI needed, because they hadn't been invented in 1896.

Memoir of a Snail (2024) is really good and a bit sad.
My review is on Letterboxd. It's too long to post here.

The Wrong Man 1956. My Review from Letterboxd
4 Stars, watched 3/2/25
Good movie but it's not your average Hitchcock or Fonda film.
Everything about how the police handled things things back then was wrong. So things really haven't changed much.

It took a couple of days but I finally finished watching the almost five hour epic, The Movie Orgy (1968). Joe Dante's supercut film that he made in college. If you're interested in film & T.V. history, this is an interesting watch. A quick cut glimpse of the 1950s.

I started this account to focus on things that interest me. I'm tired of the targeted political B.S. on my other social media account. And the same memes that have been recycled for years. After 41 years in T.V. I need a break from the noise, just for my own mental well being.
