Movie Reviews Then VS Now

 Summer Movie season is winding down as Summer itself is on the last few weeks before the schools begin, the vacations stop, and the weather turns cold. I have seen a good amount of movies over this season, and it is usually the time of the year I see the most films. There are still some films I want to see throughout the Autumn and Winter seasons as well as some more while it's still hot outside, some I want to even see again. But sometimes I skip movies, sometimes I wait for them to rent them or for a film to show up on a streaming service. Sometimes a when a film comes out, I take a quick peek to see if I should pay to watch it on the big screen.  Reviews used to be something you would see on T.V or in the newspaper. When movie reviews come to mind, I think of Siskel and Ebert. The classic film reviewers who often butt heads, leading to many comedic moments. I have seen plenty of these clips, laughed at them and found them super endearing. I even read up and learned about t...

Why The King Of The Hill Opening Is Amazing

 The continuation of King Of The Hill is here, and I have been watching a tons of the originals seasons leading up to it. I really like this show, it is hilarious, has tons of memorable moments, and even some great character moments as well. I may talk about it at some point after some time has passed but today I wanted to talk about something that is shared between the old seasons and the new. The intro, the visuals may have changed but still carry the same feeling, and the song is the same, so let's talk about it. Crack open a can, stand around with you friends, and rock out, this is the intro to King Of The Hill. When a show has a good intro song, it is fun to listen to either on it's own or every time we play an episode, and let it run. Countless songs from Disney Afternoon Shows, super hero shows, and more have been played when I am handed the aux chord with friends, or just when they pop into my head and I just have to give them a listen. This song is one of them, the ins...

Renting Movies Then And Now

 Back when I was a kid, when I wasn't seeing a movie like "Star Wars Episode III : Revenge Of The Sith" or the "Pirates Of The Caribbean" films in theaters among plenty of other films both animated and live action, I loved going to the rental store. I loved getting a game and a couple movies, spending weekends all year round trying a game I did not have the funds to purchase or watching a movie that had long finished its run on the silver screen that I did not own or never got a theatrical run or even and I am a dating myself by saying this... a VHS tape. The rental store was a super cool place to go and find something new, or something I loved and borrow it for a little while, whether it was a weekend, a long weekend, school break, or just because, it was always the good time to go and rent games and movies. I did a whole podcast episode on game rental memories so I wanted to talk about my nostalgia for business that allowed you to rent things, and the current ...
