keeping your cues and synopsis separate
A few users pointed out to me that there was a problem with the way copy/print was handled at RunPee.com. Because the cue and the synopsis were together, people would sometimes read details that they didn’t want to know about. I believe there is a simple solution to that. I have made two buttons for [...]
Movie review : Edge of Darkness
Edge of Darkness Buy the soundtrack for Edge of Darkness Purchase at iTunes Purchase at Amazon Mel Gibson provides just the right touch in Edge of Darkness – he’s a sweetheart father, a rough Boston cop dedicated to his job, and pretty darned good at psyching people out to give up their creepy intel. He’s [...]
Movie review : When in Rome
When in Rome Buy the soundtrack for When in Rome Purchase at iTunes Purchase at Amazon I like Kristen Bell; she is a doll. When in Rome is charming fluff to pleasantly fill an hour and make you want to believe in magic. Maybe. Ignore the plot holes and try to just have fun. The [...]
Movie review : Extraordinary Measures
Extraordinary Measures Buy the soundtrack for Extraordinary Measures Purchase at iTunes Purchase at Amazon This was a major disappointment, sad to say. The sick children were perky and adorable, and it was neat to watch Harrison Ford play a crotchety misogynist. And…that’s about it. B- and rent the DVD if you must. Here is the screenplay, [...]
Movie review : The Tooth Fairy

We got boils and locusts. And…strangely [...]
Movie review : The Lovely Bones
The Lovely Bones [ No spoilers ] The Lovely Bones..Ted Bundy meets What Dreams May Come. I read the book..loved it…then saw the movie…loved it also. The nearly full theater applauded at the end of the movie which is always a good sign. I came home eager to read the latest reviews. I knew there were three [...]
Movie review : The Book of Eli
The Book of Eli Buy the soundtrack for The Book of Eli Purchase at Amazon.com [ No Spoilers ] If you’re a Denzel Washington fan then worst case scenario is you’ll just barely enjoy this film.

Movie review : The Spy Next Door
The Spy Next Door Buy the soundtrack for The Spy Next Door [ No spoilers ] This movie is exactly what you would expect of it. Classic Jackie Chan action and humor. If you’ve seen any of Jackie’s work before then you know what to expect. Unfortunately there were no children in the theater when [...]
