Admiral Adama! 


OK...EDWARD JAMES OLMOS.

I shook hands with Edward James Olmos.  Met him at the local Apple store where he was shopping with his daughter.  I got three words out of him.

"Excuse me, Mr. Olmos.  I have a friend who recently worked with you."

"Oh?"

"Yes.  Mike Mench.  Air Force band leader.  You did the voiceover for a concert CD of his."

"Ah."

"Anyway, I am a big fan and just wanted to introduce myself.  Shane."

"Pleasure."

That was that.  Still...what a joy.

HAN SHOT FIRST! 


The original STAR WARS movie...uncut...un-special editioned...is due out September 12.

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!

TRUE fans prevail. Lucas saw the light ("hmmm, I can make even MORE money by releasing another version of the movie...") and is giving us true believers what we always wanted. Han shooting Greedo first. No cutsey antics as Luke's landspeeder enters Mos Eisley. No scene where Han steps on Jabba the Hutts tail without repercussions! The original, Academy Award winning (for EDITING! Get a frickin' clue people!) feature film the way it was meant to be seen.

OK...I feel better now.

Desperate Housewives 


I have never been a fan of Soap Operas...much less primetime soaps like DALLAS, FALCON CREST or MELROSE PLACE. But, for some reason, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES has me. It is THE show that I cannot miss...that and JOAN OF ARCADIA. Apparently neither can the rest of America. Right now that show is the #1 watched show...beating out reality show crap like THE APPRENTICE and SURVIVOR...and trouncing the tired cop shows like CSI and LAW & ORDER (although I still like LAW & ORDER: Criminal Intent...Vincent is cool).

Hopefully this trend will continue...

At least these guys get it. I hope soon marvel does and drop the suit.

It's just lawyers justifying their jobs...

Coming soon...TOY STORY 3 


Now...knowing the people of Pixar are genius', and the people are Disney...well...aren't. How good could this POSSIBLY be?

Don't get me wrong...I like what they do. BROTHER BEAR was decent...and I am a huge fan of THE EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE...but without Pixar behind the scenes on Toy Story 3...it will not come close to the greatness that are the first two...or ANY Pixar film for that matter.

Greedy people. Businessmen should NOT be running film studios...
