Project: Hail Mary March 30, 2026

  For a movie that was mostly Ryan Gosling talking to an insect like alien, Project: Hail Mary was a great flick. Telling the story of how the sun was losing its energy, Gosling was sent into space despite being a schoolteacher and not an astronaut, because he was the only one who knew how to obtain the resources to save Earth. On his mission, Gosling met the alien I mentioned earlier which also came from an endangered planet, and they worked together to acquire what they needed, and he became his first friend, teaching him English and what particular expressions meant, giving him the name Rocky because of how he looked. When Gosling discovered Rocky's ship would not make it back to his home planet, he turned back, sending the resources back to Earth and started teaching school on his planet, contemplating whether or not to return to Earth. I have similar ideas to that, but first I have to write them. When I mentioned the interaction between Gosling and Rocky, it is the same as it ...

Ready Or Not: Here I Come March 23, 2026

 All I remember about the original Ready Or Not Movie was the bullet points, about a young woman marrying into a family that is a Satanic cult. I did not remember anything leading up to the cult having the power to control the world, or the protagonist having an estranged sister. Even so, the movie was entertaining enough, showing the two sisters reconcile as they fought to survive, similar to how in my latest book, Jack Stamper has to reconcile with his mother and contend with a younger brother he does not get along with who is under his command in The Fourth Covert Militia. I easily bought the rift between Sarah Michelle Geller, and her twin brother and Elijah Wood did a good performance as the lawyer who might be Satan, and I have to praise him after all, because he played the protagonist in my favorite movie of all time.  If you are interested in my books, which center on young adults in a secret militia waging guerilla warfare and espionage against an axis of evil across ...

Undertone March 16, 2026

 The movie Undertone had a creative enough premise but was overall boring until the last ten minutes. It told the story of how a podcaster, who talked about the dark origin behind children's songs and nursery rhymes, and a supernatural entity was in her house. Her mother was also dying and was somehow connected to it, but in the end nothing really happened. When I left the theater people were talking about how confusing it was.  There were some interesting things in it though, such as when they talked about the dark origin of kid's songs and nursery rhymes. I study literature and poetry to get ideas for books, and in those books The Covert Militia will face the same kind of evil. If you are interested in them, click on the link.  Smashwords.com

The Bride March 10, 2026

 As a monster movie fan, I had to see The Bride, and it had its moments. Anyone who likes bizarre and twisted horror films, will enjoy some of it, and I know my mother won't.  I personally found the premise creative enough, and if you are interested in the work of independent authors who are looking for readers, click on the link.  Smashwords.com
