Sequels to movies and books are a pretty mixed bag of entertainment.
There was a time, not so long ago, that a movie soundtrack was as important as the film, often better quality than the actual film.
Twenty years ago this week, one of the greatest cinematic experiences ever committed to film was released. You probably already know the film I am speaking of, a film bursting with top-notch performances, state of the art special effects and one of the most iconic and enduring soundtracks of our generation. This film needs no further introduction. Ladies and Gentlemen Deep Blue Sea! Now, I’m not a sharkolgist, but I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to stick your arm in their gaping, blood slick jaws and see what happens. Deep Blue Sea burst (Swam?) onto the scene in 1999, a…
When a show ends, it’s normal to wonder what happened to your favorite characters. Did Jesse Pinkman find love, happiness and a job at Home Depot in Tulsa? Has anything happened in the two seasons since you gave up on Walking Dead? Can we pretend the finale of Game of Thrones was a fever dream brought on by a shockingly old Nightmare Burger from Burger King? (But really, aren’t all burgers from Burger King Nightmare burgers?)

The twist to the King’s new horror show is that it supposedly…
If you grew up in the 90’s and have been to the mall lately, you’re probably kicking yourself for throwing out all your crop tops and high waisted jeans. Recent years have proven that nostalgia makes money and suddenly everyone is dressing like their favorite character from Empire Records. I have made a vow never again to throw anything out. That way when Blue’s Clues T-shirts and oversized Dickies come back in style, I’ll be prepared. And also, if the apocalypse happens, I’ll have plenty of used aluminum foil to keep our alien overlords from reading my thoughts! Cite me…
Like most people, I learned most of my social norms from television and the gentleman that lives behind the 7-11. Television brought me up to believe in doing the right thing no matter how much your cool friends tease you and that one day I may actually land some cool friends. (If you’re interested in becoming my cool friend see my Craigslist ad “Cool Kats wanted for Mando’s Cool Kids Club”). As an adult I learned that much of what T.V. has taught me is just a pack of dirty, dirty lies. For instance: People Don’t Meet Up with…
