I just read a review on io9 of Season of the Witch. It looks so cheesy. SO cheesy as to be good in a bad way.
I could not resist. Nic Cage and Ron Perlman in a campy movie that has scenes with hommages to Monty Python? I am so there. 🙂
The last few nights I’ve watched for the yellow flashing lights of the tow truck. The truck is there every night some where between 9:00 and 11:00 PM. Last night, three of the visitor spots had resident vehicles in them. Again. I’ve shown my friends the areas where there are blocks of visitor spots so…
A friend of mine was at the WWW 2007 conference in Banff, Alberta. I sent a package via US postal server using the so-called priority mail option. The postman said that the package should arrive within 3-5 days. It was a Saturday, and my friend was supposed to be in town for another 8 days….
It’s been a very long, muddy winter. And fall, and most of the previous summer too. I had a curious confluence of events that kept me feeling slightly overwhelmed. You know, that feeling where you are juggling everything but can not add one more ball to the mix without dropping everything. So I didn’t blog….
My stepmom just quit her teaching job to write full time. I am so proud of her for taking an opportunity to fulfill a life-long dream. She’s writing children’s books and also some adult fiction. We had a long conversation about writing, characters, the stories she is working on, and writing in general. Non-writers do…
Never seems to fail. I come back from a trip and I get sick. On the flight back last weekend, the kid sitting in the row behind me coughed up a storm. I started losing my voice and getting a sore throat on Thursday last week. The coughing got worse over the weekend. I was…
It has been a while since my last post. What, two months? It’s been hell here between work pressure, horse issues, and then my own back/leg problem. I am going to write posts and back date them to the time when they actually happened. I’ve often used the blog archives as a reminder of when…

Season of the Witch WAS cheesy, as per most Nic Cage movies. The Rite looks a little more interesting and at least has Sir Anthony Hopkins to lend it some class!
Season of the Witch wasn’t too bad. It was some where in between cheesy and trying to take itself seriously. Kept feeling like Ron Perlman was trying to get Nic Cage to lighten up. Ron Perlman made an awesome knight.
Not even going to touch the “historical accuracy” of the movie. It took place in a fantasy realm as far as I’m concerned.
The Rite looks very interesting. You know it will have some good acting with Sir Anthony in there. 🙂
I don’t WANT a new Dr. Who! David come back!
Matt Smith eventually grows on you, but he doesn’t have David Tennant’s power/presence. Did you see DT in Hamlet or Cassanova? Nom.
