Subtle Bluntness

So thanks to Kiwibox I got to see the best picture of 2008, Slumdog Millionaire.  I don’t know if it’s the best picture, but it definitely is a hellaciously entertaining movie with a timeless plot energized by its location and the obvious directing talents of one of my favorites, Danny Boyle.  Check out my DVD [...]

So people send me DVDs.  I write reviews of them and link to them.  People read them and tell me I suck or that I am awesome.  If they tell me I’m awesome, I know they’re smart and handsome people.  If they tell me I suck, I know that they should probably be issued helmets [...]

Well, I’m just everywhere these days.  You know my other places that I write by now, but perhaps you don’t know the latest place I’m doing DVD reviews at.  It’s called Kiwibox, and it’s like a social networking/magazine thing.  The magazine part is what I’m mostly there for. Either way, they get DVDs in for [...]
