It begins and ends right there. The struggle for Chris and his lack of awareness of the struggle. We needed a hero, but what we don't understand is that this hero-ness that we have requested Chris to take on for us comes with a massive price for him personally. A price for his young family. A price for his own soul and peace of mind. A price for his friendships and his life.
Everything everything and everything review - It says a ton about life, and being human. It speaks to man's tendency to abuse the holy in our lives, and to harness it all ultimately for really shallow purposes.
What the Real Apocalypse Will Look Like - Response to the Sony Hack
I've always wanted to pull together in a single blog posting many of the various theories about movies that I have created or that I adore. I've definitely done my fair share of crazy theory development. And I'll be honest with you, one of the main reasons I create some of my crazier theories is just to piece together illogical movies that are otherwise good. But a better reason for for creating theories is just because you guys eat 'em up. But I have been creating crazy ideas for movies since I can remember.
I absolute adore stop-motion. Have since I was but a wee-lad with a Super 8 camera and projector purchased just to play with the medium. Didn't really take it very far, but I very much wanted to be an in-betweener for Disney, until I realized what an awful job that would be! Not to mention that computers would one day make that particular job obsolete!
You liked the movie Alien. Of course you loved Alien. EVERYONE loved the movie Alien. Aliens another seriously awesome kick butt movie of intergalactic madness and mayhem. Sigourney Weaver was insane. Alien 3? Of course. Alien 4, filmed in England and crazy dark madness. Enter mad-house of convicts and insanity.
I have a fairly strong draw to the highly soap-operatic Downton Abbey. I love everything about it. The castles, and landscapes. The villains and the Lords. The back-stabbing and the conniving. The romances and the marriages. Maybe it just reminds me of England, and that's why I love it so? I mean, I love Sherlock as well, RIGHT? hahah. Anyway. I enjoy it regardless.
Let's face it. The Leia slave costume is a bit awkward. Jabba the Hutt captures THE Princess Leia and tricks her out in a bikini. He then makes her watch as he slobbers down some frog slime and various grossness. I mean, really?
So I caught wind that there was a new short called Everything & Everything & Everything and um... Carruth is in it. After falling on the floor, and self-administering an intracardiac injection of epinephrine... I literally emailed everyone in Hollywood associated with the movie I could get my hands on. (I seriously did. I'm sure I'm now on all of the major motion picture house's spam blockers. I kid you not.)
The game Portal is simply the best video game ever. Yeah, I know. Big words. Actually, check that. Portal 2 is the greatest video game of all time. Bar none. But without Portal 1 there is not Portal 2... so they are basically intertwined in my mind. But its funny that a game without a proper gun (a gun with bullets mind you) could be the best of anything.
Carnivorous Plants In All their Stop Motion Glory - There is something ridiculously oh, I don't know... awesome? about the crazy and obscure things this world has to offer. For example piranha. Piranha are, without a doubt awesome. When I was in high school I raised two red belly piranha from the sizes of quarters to the size of a CD 3 inches thick.

Time Travel Short from TimTimFed - a funny, tongue in cheek time travel short that is worth every minute of the seven minutes it will cost you to watch it.
New Off the Hook Game Lumino City - Every now and again a new game comes out that is intriguing. And then there are the super rare exceptions when your jaw comes unhinged and then drops onto the floor because you are so blown away by a new concept. That is the case with the new game Lumino City
