Sorry everyone, no media talk this week. I'm currently very sick and simply in no condition to work. I'll be taking a few more days to recover. In the meantime, here is what's coming up next.
It's October! Which means we are entering festival season, at least in North America, with Halloween, Thanks Giving, and eventually Christmas.
How about you? What does your culture celebrate ...

Well, this is one hard video to make, partly because of it being an unpopular opinion, but also because it's just difficult having to dig into news about hate crimes, and having to edit them down s...

John Woo is a bit of a mockery today. His style is quite dated, and his sensibility is quite cheesy. His modern movies frequently bombs.
But once upon a time, John Woo...
