I came across this article the other day and it got me thinking about Star Wars.  The question is an interesting one.  When did Star Wars die for me?  While this website does have a bit of a Star Wars flair, the question did get me thinking.  Go back about 10-15 years and I have [...]

Wow - what a great weekend I have ahead of me…
Thursday Night - Barack Obama’s acceptance speech at Invesco Field Mile High Stadium.

I am seriously excited about Thursday night.  This is the first time in my life that I have either volunteered (I networked the printers wirelessly in his SD campaign office) for and [...]

Well, having been tagged by my former classmate Drew, its time to step up to the plate.  Of course, connecting it to the most recent Star Wars trilogy might not be the best thing, but its probably better than:
Presbymeme II: The Two Memes?
or
The Dark Presbymeme
Anyway, onto the rules & the questions:
The Rules

In about 25 words [...]

Well, its been about 48 hours since I finally saw The Dark Knight.  It was just killing me not getting to the theater because of lack of babysitting and crazy schedules and also avoiding spoilers.  I knew that something significant happened at the end of the movie but I was thankful that I was able [...]

This might be a late 90s or early 00s internet / pop culture reference, but I am still dearly attached to the phrase “jump the shark.”  For those not aware of the meaning, check both jumptheshark.com and wikipedia’s reference.  Anyway, the term came back to me after seeing the new Indiana Jones movie.  (spoilers ahead [...]

Finished Through a Screen Darkly by Jeffrey Overstreet last night. It was easily one of the better film and theology books I have read over the last several years (and I’ve read a lot of them). It ranks up there with Robert Johnson’s Reel Spirituality in the variety of subjects he covers. [...]

A litlte channeling of Henrix going on on Tuesday’s ep of Colbert…
Star Spangled Banner with a little extra flair
(once again, wordpress.com strikes again - can’t embed from comedycentral.com either - I also have no control over the quality of the ad before the clip)

Little did I know that when I saw Walken as the evil Zorin in that awful mid-80s Bond film, A View to a Kill, that he was as funny as he is. He hosted SNL for the 7th time this past weekend and here are two clips for my friend Kathie who missed the [...]

I found myself watching Red Dawn a few nights ago. It was spurred on from a Risk (facebook version) game I was playing with some of my buddies. I remember seeing it when it initially came out in 1984 (I guess they didn’t care it was PG-13 when I bought my ticket since I [...]

So, the last few nights as I have been feeding my newborn son in the middle of the night, I have been re-watching a movie that just floored me when I first saw it. As you can see from the image to the left, Gattaca is the film under comment. It is simply [...]
