Recent stuff by me

I know that even if you have bookmarked sites like Geekweek, the content moves so fast that it’s hard to keep track unless you have no life. So here are some links to recent stuff I’ve done:

A review, with pictures, of Mattel’s new WWE toys. It’s pretty geeky.  Sample:

Elite Rey comes with a [...]

My Reaction

I am, as one might expect, disappointed that I did not get the film editor position at LA Weekly. It’s no secret that I have coveted that job for years.

I congratulate Karina Longworth for winning out in a pool that must undoubtedly have consisted of almost every film critic in America. No small achievement, that.

It [...]

The Bloody Paparazzi, Going Too Dashingly Far

Many of you may know my frequent costar Douglas Dunning. He is apparently so well known that people cannot stop filming him, over his considerable objections…

Movies 2009: The Rest of the Best

This’ll be quick and easy, since I can mostly link you to original reviews (again, for my UK/international readers – if links don’t work, go to eonline.com and then click on “movies”):

1. Antichrist. See review.

2. Avatar. See review.

3. Fantastic Mr. Fox. See review.

4. Crank: High Voltage. See review.

5. Up. No review, but possibly my favorite [...]

ANTICHRIST, Superstar: LYT's Number-One Movie of 2009

Even though I had heard almost every single plot detail of ANTICHRIST, the movie itself was nothing like I expected. All the talk has been about how it’s incoherent, based on a dream Lars von Trier had, and there’s a fake talking fox and some castration. I expected the typically rotten production values of a [...]

My Top Ten Movies of the Decade

1. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Bring it on. But please, bring something more than the usual “boo hoo, Hayden is whiny and I don’t like CGI and Darth Vader shouldn’t say ‘noooo!’ and Padme shouldn’t die” crap. Yes, Anakin is a petulant brat put in a huge position of power by a malicious [...]

Silent Night, Vegas Night

A few holiday snapshots from the SILENT NIGHT, ZOMBIE NIGHT crew’s trip to Las Vegas last week.

Wrestling fans will know the significance of my wearing that shirt on that day.

PC050031

Funny thing about the Sahara, is while checking in, guys waiting in line for reception were drinking beers. Most had cowboy hats and giant belt buckles.

This [...]

A near-decade of dickishness

This past August, I passed the ten-year mark as a film critic. My, how times have changed. When I started, it actually seemed like a more pragmatic career move than acting. And I made a good living at it. The paper ran as many as six full-length reviews a week.

I didn’t especially have much desire [...]

New DING DONG DEAD screenshots…

AFI FEST 2009: Ricci Rich

Following the Thursday closing night of AFI Fest in Hollywood – and let me give them major props for keeping the free booze lounge going on that day, when normally one expects it to shut off completely on the final stretch – I stayed home all day Friday, recouping and forgetting what day it was.
