It's a really nice place. Half of it is a coffeeshop, and in the back, there's a stage and seating. They used to have Open Mic Nights on the last Thursday of the month, which would also appear on Channel 17 (Public Access) and a...

When I read biographies, I tend to daydream about doing my own thing in that field.. Biography on a musician, or a director. Watching a great movie will exponentially activate my imagination (which never seems to stop) as well,...

We might see a movie in the future. As a former traveler, a big part of it were the round-the-fire conversations with people from all over the world commenting on a certain country from their vantage point, and very rewarding to...

Detroit still hasn't been 100% healthy. But if Cade comes back and no one gets hurt, they will be. Monte Morris is a hometown kid but didn't play his first game until yesterday. I was a big fan of the trade last year but it sucked...

Define "rock" any way you want. If you think it's rock, it's rock.
There's a lot on YouTube, and today I checked out the one by the 70s band Kansas. I only knew a couple of songs, definitely not a fan, liked the overplayed "Dust...

Tales of Ordinary Madness - 8/10
I heard Pauline Kael mention this movie during an interview, and for some reason, I stopped to type in the few she did mention onto my IMDB watchlist. When I looked this one up, I had to check it,...

I have $200 left to my name. I want to spend it because I need to enjoy myself. I've lived in this place for almost 8 years, yet, I've never been to the establishment closest to my house, a strip club. I've tried to enter a few...

Most people I ask don't even know who the writer is, and never think about this kinda stuff, including an actor who made a low-budget movie (and had it in a local theater), but I certainly do. If it's no good, then it doesn't...

I know I have once or twice.. I remember the music being so horrible at the very beginning, and the song after was just as bad, and I thought, "I'll just go watch something else" and don't even remember the movies, but the answer...

into the band.... I can't think of any. It seems like most don't wanna go back, and if they did, they probably wouldn't publicize it. Lots of those who were fired, although I just had one in the tip of my fingertips but just...

RIP
"Barry Lyndon" was one of the movies I liked in the first year of my becoming serious about movies. FF to the last time I was in SF (2016), the last thing I did before my red-eye flight was to watch "Paper Moon" on my laptop...

Try movies you wouldn't normally watch. Or a movie you've had in mind - either too art-house, or too long. Or something out of your comfort zone. I'm going through it now (for many reasons), but TCM always shows something good and...

Rocky - 8/10
It's more allegorical than I remembered ... "The American Dream" with the black champion (Ali is an entire story regarding Vietnam and how they never oppressed him) who is on top of the world, void of stereotypes, and...

I think it's genius to make that a category, and something I don't ever see, which in of itself is genius to me, because it's different and will bring about different things.. I don't only seek it out, but it is something that I...

Maybe 5 months into a movie the producer has had a few clunkers at the box office and tells his current director "Gotta need a happy ending" or any story of examples of producers and/or studio heads insisting on changing a story...

Lucia - 6.5/10
Lucia in three episodes. Of course, the first two were not during Castro's time, so it was decadent, horrible. In the third episode, of course, you hear "Guantanamera" which is one step above "La Cuckaracha", and...

This is a tough one, but I think it would help to check out my highest rated movies on IMDB. It's especially difficult because there are multiple factors I think of.. My favorites vs. best ability, and then there's probably...

Before these guys, I would listen to Bill Burr, but this one is much better and although it's very vulgar at times, politically incorrect, they're a funny bunch, and they're sincerely good people who actually know what they're...
