Indiana became a state on this date. And we declared War on Germany and Italy after they declared war on us on this date in 1941. And it is Pampanga Day in the Phillipines...

Diane Warren Teri Garr says she judges someone’s intelligence by whether they get the jokes. I judge people’s intelligence by whether they remember meeting me. I’m not talking about a handshake, but a conversation. If we spoke for fifteen minutes, how can you not remember me? I’ve introduced myself over and over to the same people for [...]

A wise man once said “It’s not just about seeing Star Wars two weeks before everyone else. You’ve gotta plow through crap like Marie Antoinette and Catwoman as well.” I have the fortune of being able to see all of the films that I want, and find out that they ...

Kabluey is the kind of movie that can truly make one appreciate the world of indie films. There is no big-budget version of this movie, and I think there's really no way to say precisely what this movie is saying once you have to try to attract a large enough audience to cover such a budget. Giant, blue guy standing by the side of the road just isn't pulling people into theaters.
