Pop Culture and Politics on the Artistic Spectrum
It was a simpler time, back in October 2001. The nation couldn’t have possibly predicted what was soon to creep up on them with almost no warning whatsoever. When Waking Life, the rotoscoping philosophical masterpiece by Richard Linklater was released to limited audiences, minds were blown. The animation style of rotoscoping—drawing the animation cells over existing… Continue reading Amazon’s ‘Undone’ is a visual masterpiece
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5v0bUBwJfvg There is nothing better than protesters dressed like Klansmen being dragged out of a government building by a black police officer. Soak it in. 2017 is off to a fantastic start. The protest occurred at the Senate Judiciary Hearing on the appointment of Attorney General Nominee Jeff Sessions; no doubt a politically polarizing figure for many… Continue reading Streep, Gosling and Sessions: 2017 is Up and Running

We didn't bother to cover the 2013 70th Annual Golden Globes in our traditional method of hits and misses this year. Rather, I took to Twitter in order to communicate with all of you who were watching the same event and arbitrarily comment about what we were all watching unfold. Here are the highlights that… Continue reading Live Tweets from the 70th Annual Golden Globes
Well it's that exciting time again to passively watch and potentially immerse ourselves in what is--and let's be honest--essentially a watered-down version of the Academy Awards.

Let's see I… Continue reading For Your Consideration…
How often do we raise our expectations at the expense of our enjoyment? The problem with high expectations is that they can never truly be met. Your idea of perfection is inevitably going to vary from Gene Shalit's, and vice versa. For the most part, films and games share the same stigma. On one hand,… Continue reading Dangerous Words
