I saw District 9... and S’crimps Kick Ass!
Posted by Benjamin Holcomb in Cinema on 22. Aug, 2009 | No Comments
So the other night, I saw this documentary called, “District 9.” It’s all about this guy named Steve (or Michael; I can’t remember which, so I’ll call him “Wikus”) who works in a boring office. I think the place is called Dunder-Mifflin. There’s also a TV documentary about him… but he doesn’t have an accent [...]

I LOVE Lord of the Rings. I do. And I love The Hobbit
which I am patiently waiting for. (Side note, I still own The Hobbit on VHS).
I read The Lord of the Rings
as a child and re-read them as an adult. When I worked in a group home for boys, I read it to them. [...]

My favorite movie of all times is
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (1990) ~ the screenplay was done by Tom Stoppard, the same man who wrote the play by the same name (first staged in 1966). The movie stars Gary Oldman, Tim Roth, Richard Dreyfuss and Joanna Roth. I actually still have a VHS [...]

Not everybody keeps movie tix, not every movie would be worth it anyway, but I used to keep my movie tix to keep in my photo albums. It is fun to look back at pictures to myself, my friends, where I used to live ~ and see the movies I was seeing at the [...]

I love Jesse Jackson ~ he is an amazing speaker and an inspiration to me. He has a way of bringing his history into the room, keep you focused on the here and now and motivate you to do more in the future. ”I am somebody” he had the crowd saying. ”I am somebody”. In [...]

For me it is always a treat to go downtown to see a play. This performance was especially good because it starred Cherry Jones , a theater favorite!

Wishful Drinking starring the one and only Princess Leia (aka Carrie Fisher) was a show not to be forgotten! The Princess was thirty years older and it def showed. She went up on her lines quite a bit … at one point asking the audience to help her think of a word… and who [...]
I saw Les Miserables... with Madre back in the D.

I am a big fan of Musicals ~ this may actually surprise some people that know me, but I have no limit to what I enjoy when it comes to music. That is not to say that I love ALL musicals but this one is my personal favorite. Even with the recent popularity of [...]
