Nothing Lasts Forever: Probably The Best Weird FIlm You’ve Never Seen.

And in case you’ve NEVER seen it… well, here you go. Nope, I won’t even review this one because it’s one of those flicks that needs to be experienced by as many as possible. All I’ll say is watch it and prepare to be knocked somewhere. Not OUT< as you need to be very conscious when you experience this 1984 gem. I vaguely recall paying to see it back in 1984… but I think it may also have been one of the very weird dreams I've had when I do something real in them, wake up and about a year later, recall doing something I've never done but think I did because of how vivid the dream was. Hey, I walked from one "end" of Paris to another in a dream, which never happened (although I've been to France twice). Anything else you want to hear about I'll need to charge you for.

Don't expect this on Blu-Ray or DVD anytime soon, as there seems to be a ton of rights issues that need clearing up and/or current rights holder Warner Bros. is being (in the words of a friend who recommended this flick to me) "a bag of total jerks" about releasing this in North America (it's been popping up on TV in Europe for a few years). It's too bad, as this one's completely nuts in the best possible manner…

Disney Is Turning That Movie Night Into Madness…

Oh, hell no. Or, Come on, REALLY? Yikes. Granted, this second screen experience thing will only be at selected theaters, so there’s that. On the other hand, what the hell is Disney thinking here? This high tech mash-up of Rocky Horror Picture Show and Winky Dink is going to piss a lot of people off who go in happy and smiling with the kids thinking it’s going to be sooooo cooool. only to realize that ONE person with an iPad in a theater is a nuisance… but a few hundred with them is a whole new distracting light source and aural experience you DON’T want to sit through. That and why not just allow people who already OWN this on home video to download that app, stay at home and not have to go through hell as a lab rat for this experiment in terror. Nothing like a theater full of squealing, singing and arguing kids with their hipster doofus parental units (or anyone else with kids who buys in thinking this will be any kind of thine resembling FUN) to make your evening REALLY “special”, right? You’ve been warned… this has been a public service announcement.

The Backlog Continues (“Oops” Edition), Plus a Viking Wants Some of My Money…

Yeah, yeah – I’m laaaaate to posting again, but I’ve been busy working through a bunch of games. One of which ISN’T Volgarr the Viking (now available on gog.com). Not that I don’t want to buy and play that awesome looking old-school hard as nails 2D action platformer, mind you. I’m actually OUT of space on all three of my hard drives and every portable drive I currently own. Ugh. Actually, I need to go through those drives because part of the reason I’m out of space is I accidentally backed up a complete drive onto another a while ago when I thought I was copying a few files and I don’t need everything I duplicated. I just haven’t gotten around to clearing out the drive because I’ll need to go through a load of files and that will take most of a day. Eh, one thing at a time, I suppose. I guess I’ll delete a few games I duplicated and add Volgarr and a few other things this week. I still have a few cheap indie bundles I spent a buck or two on that need to get added to my virtual stack of games to get to.
