Watch Some Dude with a Mullet Explain Why Ninja Turtles are Evil

Some Dude with a Mullet Explaining Why #TMNT is Evil

Back in the late 80’s/early 90’s, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Tur­tles were everywhere—TV, the box office, toy stores, t-shirts, lunch­boxes, super­mar­ket aisles (basi­cally every aspect of my child­hood).  And typ­i­cal of most full-blown pop cul­ture phe­nom­e­nons, Chris­t­ian peo­ple were irra­tionally afraid of them. This Chris­t­ian dude with a mul­let explains: “The heroes are using ‘white magic’ […]

Did I ever tell you about the time I watched all 1,225 episodes of ‘Dark Shadows’?

Dark Shadows

No?  Well that’s because I haven’t yet.  But I’m close!  I only have, like, 790 more episodes to go… My Dark Shad­ows pil­grim­age began back in 2009, a few months before Tim Bur­ton announced his film ver­sion.  It was on the rec­om­men­da­tion of my mom, who used to rush home from school to watch it with her […]

‘The Beaver’ Will Make You Sort of, Kind of Like Mel Gibson Again…Maybe

The Beaver, 2011, Mel Gibson

“Hello. I’m The Beaver. And I’m here to save your career.” Whether you’ve for­given Mel Gib­son for his self-righteous behav­ior, anti-Semitic tirades, racist rants, and alleged wife-beating ways or not (in which case I com­pletely under­stand), I think it’s a tragedy that one of the best movies of 2011 will prob­a­bly never get the recognition […]
