I'm all like Web 2.0 and sh*t. Yeah, I'm still using using Yahoo Groups for getting the word out about updates but I've also started a group on Facebook so folks can keep up with the goings on at Cashiers du Cinemart. There's a topic that may be of interest on the Discussion Board. Take a look and join up!

Copyright, Shmopyright
After fifteen years someone is finally questioning the copyright of Who Do You Think You're Fooling? There's a dispute filed on YouTube over my rights over the use of footage in this work. Seems a few days late and quite a number of dollars short.
Embedding has been disabled to make folks go to YouTube to see advertisements from Lion's Gate -- they're the shitbird company saying they own rights to Who Do You Think You're Fooling? at the moment. So, I threw this up on Facebook and we can hope it lives there successfully for a good, long time.

My Most Popular Posts
Sometimes web traffic statistics can be a hoot. I was just poking around in Google Analytics and found that my most popular posts in the years that I've been doing this blog have been:
- Faraday's Journal (1,095)
- Is Time Malleable? (658)
- Review of The Condemned (151)
- Symbicort TV Commercial (97)
- Going Full Retard (37)
This seems like a rather eclectic mix of media critique (Symbicort), movie reviews, and Lost theories. There are a lot of things that I've written/posted that I would have hoped to garner better numbers but the people are fickle...

New Reviews @ Metro Times
The Minoru Kawasaki Collection
The films of Minoru Kawasaki are unrepentantly silly. Featuring masked wrestlers, crazed monsters and soccer-playing crabs, Kawasaki has a flair for the absurd. Synapse Films recently unleashed three of Kawasaki's most outrageous films on the American public. READ MORE
Viva
Set in 1972 Los Angeles, Viva is a heavily saturated and slightly sedated homage to Radley Metzger's winning and slinky skin flicks. Writer-director Anna Biller stars as the titular Viva, a frustrated housewife who goes on a sexual odyssey with her best friend, Sheila. READ MORE

The Action Star Stare
If you want to be an action star, you need to perfect "The Stare". Consider this "Blue Steel" for asskickers. Luckily, Target was nice enough to have a line-up of three such looks lined up for comparison.

Libris Hiatus
I own a lot of books. Too many. I've read a lot of them but there are literally hundreds that I haven't cracked the cover on. Yet, I keep buying and I need to stop!
Even today I picked up two new books. They were used, yes, but I still don't think I should be spending money on books to add to the pile when I have so many I haven't even touched. So, that's it. I'm putting a stoppage on my book buying until I read at least two hundred of the books I currently have.
Note that there are at least 322 books (at the moment) in my "want to read" list and that's not even fully up to date with everything I own, have borrowed, or have downloaded as an audiobook. I should be able to stay busy for a while if my willpower holds out. Wish me luck!
