The Movie Guy: July 2013
http://focusonmovies.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Movie Reviews, Trivia, and Resources. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Summary of 4 Big Summer Movies. I haven't written a review for a while and have gotten a little back logged so I decided to briefly rate some of the bigger summer movie titles. Finally a zombie movie where they move fast instead of slowly limping around. I have never really gotten into the zombie genre, but I thought this was well done and I really liked it. If you like seeing scenes of civilization being destroyed then you will probab...I hav...

The Movie Guy: July 2015
http://focusonmovies.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Movie Reviews, Trivia, and Resources. Wednesday, July 1, 2015. I've previously addressed the topic of deceptive counterfeit movies. But how is the Movie "A Deadly Game" not being sued for such a blatant ripoff poster of the Hunger Games? Redbox is infamous for renting out straight to DVD movies that mimic popular films. I guess the only chance that some of these movies have of being rented is to confuse the elderly, people who can't read, or people with very bad eyesight. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

This blog has been gluten free since 2007. Wednesday, December 18, 2013. Who's Living in a Fantasy World? With the recent Hobbit movie in theaters, I've been hearing a lot of geek chatter lately. I enjoy Fantasy and Science Fiction movies so I would classify myself in the Nerd / Geek category at times although I don't own any hobbit feet or Vulcan ears, and have not named any of my kids Legolas. Friday, December 6, 2013. We recently got our first real snow storm of the year and it is interesting to see t...

Chaka's World: October 2013
http://chaka4612.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
This blog has been gluten free since 2007. Wednesday, October 9, 2013. I am in shock. I just realized I have not written a blog post since July! I used to have so many topics and ideas I was excited about. It feels like it was just yesterday that I enjoyed regular blogging but I have been under such stress over the past year that I have become neglectful. Did I abandon my blog or did my blog forsake me? Did I really think it was possible for one man to stay on top of this? Kids, just do yourselves a favo...

This blog has been gluten free since 2007. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Getting Paid For Not Growing Crops. I remember how confused I was the first time I heard about farmers being paid to not grow crops in. The Grapes of Wrath. So many questions and so few answers. By the way, I'm not criticizing farmers. I think farming is one of the hardest professions around. I think I could really leverage my time if I could also get paid for not starring in movies, not performing on American Idol, and not running ...

The Movie Guy: May 2013

Movie Reviews, Trivia, and Resources. Wednesday, May 15, 2013. I'm going to keep this short. There are several points I'd like to make about Life of Pi. 1) It is a good movie. 2) I can add it to my list of films that make me scared of the ocean. 3) CG technology has come a long way since Jumanji. I was impressed! 4) If I ever get a pet I might name it Richard Parker. 5) The ending had an interesting twist. 6) I can't tell you if it was better than the book because I never read the books. The story develo...

Movie Reviews, Trivia, and Resources. Thursday, December 12, 2013. I recently saw the remake of Red Dawn on Amazon streaming and I am so grateful I didn't waste time or money to see it in the theater. This was by far the worst movie I have seen in years. It made the original 1984 version, which was only mediocre, look like a masterpiece. I give it 4.0 stars just because I was relieved to find out that Subway Sandwiches will be going strong in the event of a communist invasion against our country. I recen...

This blog has been gluten free since 2007. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. My Concern For Society. Do some police make mistakes? Yes Are some cops jerks? Yes Are there such things as racist or. Anyway, I guess my point can be boiled down to "don't be an idiot." Don't steal from people, don't hurt people, don't mock and threaten people online under the cowardly cloak of anonymity, don't fight against the police and then act like you are a victim if you are guilty of committing a crime. KD pulls out . My Conc...

Movie Reviews, Trivia, and Resources. Monday, February 24, 2014. 5 More Short Movie Reviews. In keeping with the neglectful tradition of sharing incomplete and incoherent movie reviews, here are the last five movies I've seen. I've kept it short since I know you are busy. This was a good movie but I was hoping to enjoy it a little bit more. It seemed to end very abruptly in dramatic fashion but I was still waiting for more story. Oh Well. I give it 7.2 stars. Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit. Movies I'm Looking...
