Pat Mannion sent around this article a couple of years ago. Luckily, Mitchell’s post linked right to it. Steve Albini produced Nirvana’s ‘in utero’ and here he gives the truth about record contracts.

Let’s all thank Mark Evanier’s blog for this. Here’s every cover of mad magazine ever published. What facsinates me is that it’s been published since 1952 and has only released 433 issues. This book has NEVER been monthly. Worth a look if just to see what movies we were into.
Coincindentally, my good friend’s dad […]

The way things have been going lately, I should have expected this.

The warranty on my 20GB iPod is about to expire so it’s time to check my battery. It doesn’t seem to have the life it used to but I’ve never been on a regular schedule with it, plugging it in whenever it’s low.
So only one thing to do. Take my fully-charged iPod, set to ’songs>play […]

Chris, be prepared to crap your pants! Shark week’s back!

Here’s a new Batman fan film that’s actually pretty good. Batman’s costume is better than any live action I’ve seen and the cinematography kicks ass. This can’t just be some fanboys. It has to be someone’s reel.

Cinescape has the first picture of Alfred Mollina as Doctor Octopus in Spider-man 2. I am much happier with this than I was with the Green Goblin. Alfred Mollina’s been cool ever since he stole the idol from Indy and threw his whip away. I miss the short, pudgy Doc (Bob Hoskins would have […]

Chris is always raving about Tivo so I thought I’d pitch in on its ’sister’ system; Netflix. I resisted this one for awhile. ‘20 bucks a month! I don’t spend that much in rentals!’ But that’s only because Blockbuster never has anything. I get about fifteen movies a month, meaning I pay about $1.25 […]

I hate MTV (ever since Beavis and Butthead went off the air) so I avoided the Movie Awards hosted by Seann William Scott (who’s constantly trying to look like a cross between Jim Carrey and a gremlin) and Justin Timberlake (who in this day and age thinks Michael Jackson is a cool thing to be). […]

I love Mark Evanier’s blog. I also love ‘Sanford and Son’. I mean I love it. I own two seasons on dvd. When I watch it, I laugh so hard that I punch the sofa and Renee walks out of the room. When I worked at the Museum of Television and Radio I would stay […]

I am getting way too old for concerts. Especially now that they are ever more expensive, complicated and hire staffs that treat you like a felon.
