It’s been awhile since I did a post on books and video. Thought I would try and get back to that. Books wise I finished Echoes From the Moon (The Token Book One) by Nathan Hystad Nurse Alissa vs. the Zombies X: Endgame by Scott M. Baker. Satisfactory ending to the series. Not particularly memorable, […]

There’s a couple problems with making these films. First, those highbrow films aren’t really that good. They’re no better than lots of independent films that end up going right to streaming. Although, some of those low budget indies are actually good. They’re just missing that certain something (sometimes it’s money, sometimes experience, maybe something else) […]

This is the fourth soundbar I’ve tried. I gave the Vizio M512a-H6, which is a 5.1.2, a try. It went back. I did not like how the voice was really centered , was distracting. Plus, the volume was problematic. Then the LG SP8YA. It went back. Same centered voice issue. Then the Philips B8405, which […]

I’ve had the same 2.1 Samsung soundbar since about 2014, though it was time for a new one. The sound is OK, good for TV shows, OK for movies, not quite as immersive. I’d love to be able to use my Bose 301 speakers with the stereo, but, have to use a converter, change a […]

This is, again, what is called Climarette’s, similar to Tourette’s, but, while the latter is a natural disorder, the former is driven by mental illness from the beliefs of a doomsday cult, where they just cannot help dragging their cult into everything ‘Wonder Woman 1984’: Patty Jenkins Says the Movie Is Secretly About ‘Climate Change’ […]

Why yes, the ubur-white elitists in Hollywood think that minorities, especially blacks, cannot succeed without their helpful hand Want an Oscar? Better be inclusive. Academy to make diversity requirements part of awards eligibility. On the heels of a historic election that saw a record number of women and people of color — including Oscar winner Whoopi Goldberg […]
