I write Horror, Scifi, and any other genre that compels me.

If you need the threat of hell to be a good person, then you're just a bad person on a leash.

Mostly Andy
Often Opie
Barney on occasion
Goober and/or Gomer sometimes
Post your favorite "Lord of the Rings" character.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Ate dinner, then played Cards Against Humanity for nearly 4 hours.

A good day.

For those of you who don't know what the 70s looked like, the album cover for Andrew Gold's "What's Wrong With This Picture" pretty much sums it up.

What a movie you recommend to people with enthusiasm but find that few people you recommend it to like it as much as you do?

Me: Probably Prometheus, which has its fans but is objectively, fundamentally flawed. Also Pandorum.

(My non-genre tastes are very conventional.)

Happy Thanksgiving to all

Be kind to each other

Except for ICE. Be rotten to them.

Fuck those guys every day of the year.

Do you have a Christmas script?

Here's mine. Post yours

Watching "Moving On", a Jane Fonda/Lily Tomlin film from 2022

My appreciation for this powerhouse duo is beyond my ability to describe

The movie is billed as a comedy, and there are funny moments... but it's really a drama which showcases Fonda's drama chops

As always, Lily shines!

Here's mine. Post yours

SCROOGE: REQUIEM

Is it that Humanity no longer exists, or that Humanity FINALLY exists?

If you were in Carol's position, how would you react?

Am I supposed to know who Olivia Nuzzi is?

Is there a real life reason for me to care?

Watching "SPIRITED"

A Christmas movie
A Musical
A Comedy
A Heart of Gold
A Stellar concept

It accomplishes everything it set out to, and more, on its way to becoming an Instant classic

And it has great credit roll stuff, too.

Good afternoon! #iykyk #scriptsky #filmsky

BUGONIA

Terrific performances by Stone, Plemons, and Delbis

As odd as the story may seem at first, you'll quickly recognize the real world in it

The ending is what I'd hoped it would be (IYKYK), but felt almost Wes Andersonian in presentation. Made me happy!

Hmmm... seems weird that Marjorie Taylor Greene would resign a paid gig simply due to losing Trump's support

Why not wait out the clock while collecting a paycheck?

Might Trump have something on her and said leave or else?

Does anything else make sense?

Either way... #GoodRiddance

Just finished "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"

Honestly didn't know what to expect, as I'd never even heard of it.

Really enjoyed it!
