This blog has been dormant since April of 2012. A lot has happened since then. I may tell the story. It's a good story. But for now....have you ever seen one of those Friday The 13th or Halloween sequels that just says "fuck continuity!" and doesn't explain why Jason is still chained at the bottom of the lake, or Michael Myers just shows up without explanation with a different mask? I love those movies. I'm going to reboot this shit-show with no explanation, and jump right into an easy blogger staple: a list of my favorite things from the previous year.

ReplyDeleteI really dig Green Inferno.
ReplyDeleteThe more I think about Straight Outta Compton the more I don't like it. I really liked it right after I saw it, then I just kept finding things missing. Like the whole fuck Tha police scene could have been half the movie building to that. And easy e story would have been a whole movie too.
