Judd Apatow seems like a nice, talented guy. Some of his first credits in entertainment were as a writer and producer for The Larry Sanders Show, a series I hold in such high regard that the link included earlier in this sentence goes to the show’s Wiki page so you […]
I’ve never seen any of the Lord of the Rings movies. Come to think of it, I’ve never seen the Harry Potter flicks, either. At least I can excuse that by saying I read the books. But I really don’t get LOTR, which is odd, because I suppose I’m a […]
I could have taken this review as an opportunity to crap all over The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 and its lousy theatrical poster that makes it look like the cast is answering a call of “News team, assemble!” But I wont. Because, as much as it pains me […]
Papa’s Basement co-host and friend Howard Heezy recorded this mash-up of Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “Dog Sh*t” and Gordon Lightfoot’s “If You Could Read My Mind“. It’s a fun listen and a pleasant way to distract yourself for a few minutes from your wife’s infidelity. Enjoy.

The trailer for Iron Man 3 was released today, and if you were thinking to yourself, “It’s been too long since a film adaptation of a children’s comic book depressed me like my soul had been kicked in the testicles,” you’re in luck, because it’s bleak as hell. It stops […]
The original Taken was a surprise hit, a film whose appeal is not easy to explain. Maybe it was Liam Neeson kicking ass even though he’s old enough to tell historians what the Gettysburg Address sounded like firsthand. Maybe it’s women loving a movie where daddy saves their chastity from […]
