This past Sunday I’m thankful for discovering the Zatoichi TV Series. A few years ago I picked up the box set of Zatoichi movies from Criterion during a flash sale. They’re so very good! If you get the chance, I highly recommend you check out that TV series from the ’70s as well. So… Read more »
A Very British Civil War
This Sunday I’m thankful for 1938 A Very British Civil War. It’s been almost 20 years since I followed along from the start. I even tracked down the Popular 1-to-1 Ordnance Survey maps surrounding Banburyshire. This is a pretty good flick: Dad’s Army, Jeeves and Wooster and Poirot are fodder. And this guy… Read more »
The Lord of the Rings Really Does Rule Them All
This Sunday I’m thankful for the 25th anniversary theater release of the Lord of the Rings Extended Editions. I was lucky enough to get the last seat in the house Friday night for The Fellowship of the Ring. Yesterday I watched The Two Towers. Today I’ve got The Return of the King lined up…. Read more »

Any Hobbit who runs …
Welcome to the Second Chapter* in my ongoing comparative literary analysis of The Hobbit and The Five Fingers. [*Chapter 1]
Saturday Morning Khartoums!
While not quite as perfect a back-to-back double bill as the Zulu flicks, Khartoum and The Four Feathers are still chocolate and peanut butter. At almost four and-a-half hours, if you start early they’ll carry you through to lunch! If you get up late I guess you can watch the first movie then break for… Read more »
Death Waves
Death Ship and Shock Waves These two pretty good movies are even better back-to-back. In fact, they’re such a great double feature they could be cut together with surprisingly little editing or imagination. [EDIT: Just when you think your life can’t possibly be made any better, Bob Murch walks into the bar: The Black Sun… Read more »
