Inspiration In A Cup

December 15, 2016December 13, 2019

Sometimes you don't need an inspirational quote. Sometimes you just need a good cup of coffee. Maybe it will help to just sit down, take a sip, and get that good energy flowing.

In-Depth Look – George Lucas

December 14, 2016December 13, 2019

"Star Wars: Rogue One" is coming out tomorrow. I just wanted to throw a shout out to one of our writer's at theOffice, Chris Weitz, as I'm very excited to see the movie! With the upcoming release of "Star Wars: Rogue One," I decided to tribute this week's "In-Depth" article to George Lucas. Not only … Continue reading In-Depth Look – George Lucas

Friday Fun – Last Thing On The List

December 9, 2016December 13, 2019

... And then he threw the list in the trash and played video games for the rest of the day. He kept playing video games, and never actually got to his thesis. He dropped out of college and became a janitor at an elementary school. He still had a little time for video games in the evenings, … Continue reading Friday Fun – Last Thing On The List

Top 50 Holiday Movies

December 8, 2016December 13, 2019

It's that time of the year! Were you the soccer mom staring me off in "Toys 'R Us" earlier today? I saw the last Furby on the toy shelf first, and I was much faster, so it was mine... It's okay, I have something to make it all better. You made it out alive, which … Continue reading Top 50 Holiday Movies

In-Depth Interview – Quentin Tarantino

December 7, 2016December 13, 2019

Quentin Tarantino said his 10th film will be his last, and as the count gets closer I wonder what he's got left up his sleeves. He's one of the reasons, I and many others, have studied film. He's a trendsetter, an amazing writer and director, and his characters are like none you'll see anywhere else. … Continue reading In-Depth Interview – Quentin Tarantino

Oh man, it's even worse for me... I like using Instagram and we all know a picture is worth a thousand words. Ha!

Quote of the Day – Craig Borten

Today is World AIDS Day. Luckily, AIDS is no longer a death sentence, but it is still a major problem throughout the world. It seems like the medical community is optimistic about finding a cure. It would be wonderful thing, and to raise awareness I'm dedicating today's quote of the day to Craig Borten, co-writer … Continue reading Quote of the Day – Craig Borten

In-Depth Interview – Charlie Brooker

November 30, 2016December 13, 20193 Comments

In recent years, Charlie Brooker has been responsible for creating one of my favorite shows, "Black Mirror". Each episode is a stand-alone story with a different cast, much like "The Twilight Zone." Every episode deals with technology in some facet, meaning many of the episodes are in the not so distant future, but a few … Continue reading In-Depth Interview – Charlie Brooker

Friday Fun – What’s Your Story About?

November 18, 2016December 13, 2019

This happens to me far too often. Anybody else feel this way? In Junior College, I had this great creative writing professor. Whenever someone asked him what he was writing, he had a default answer. He would say, "I'm writing a story about a one-legged man who hops all the way across America." For those … Continue reading Friday Fun – What’s Your Story About?
