More Movie Madness
Add two more to the list… In an effort to gear up for the Awards season, I am trying to watch all the movies that will likely have a chance at best actor/best movie nominations.  So far we’ve got these two, Gran Torino and Milk.  Next up are The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Man on Wire*. Slumdog Millionaire is my current front runner for the Best Film category.  If anyone is...

Movies I Watched The Past 4 Days Out Of Sheep...
Burn After Reading- Great if you like Coen Bros classics (The Big Lebowski, O’ Brother Where Art Thou). Chapter 27- Gripping recount of Mark David Chapman’s last days before shooting John Lennon.  Jared Leto renews my faith in…well…Jared Leto. The Mexican- Desparation on my part, really.  Can’t remember much of it. The Holiday- Cameron Diaz should seriously...

“It has become clearer than ever that the movie year is divided into two parts....”
– David Denby (via tylercoates) True that.  All the best movies you’ll never hear about come out in December/January.  For 2007 it was The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, In The Valley of Elah and Michael Clayton.  If you haven’t seen these three movies go out and...

The Top Movie of 2008 is...
thedailywebbster: Not the Dark Knight.  No, it wasn’t voted number 1, not even number 2.  It seems the lifetime(or taking) performance by Heath Ledger was only good enough to recieve number 3.  A movie with no talking (Wall-E) was number 7(I mention this because Wall-E is fucking brilliant).  Number 2 was Slumdog Millionare, so if anyone has seen this movie, tell me what it’s about.  And the...

The New Deal
If you guys haven’t noticed yet or are only reading these through some sort of feed, I changed the design of my tumblog, once again.  I found this free design, Roboturner, created by Matt McInerney of Pixelspread and fell in love with it.  There are some differences you may or may not have noticed though. First, the comments application was removed.  Thank you to all my friends that left...

13 Tracks of 'meh'
If you are like me and most of America, you fall for Fall Out Boy.  Fall Out Boy is the band that everyone loves to hate, hates to love, and somehow hates to hate and loves to love.  They actually, in a 2006’ish reader poll of Alternative Press, received the most votes for best band as well as worst band in alternative rock.  Every time the new Fall Out Boy album drops, you hear that first...

Phoneless in Fresno
Hey guys.  My old-as-shit Blackberry 8700 (aka The Brick) finally took a knee and is broken.  I am looking for anyone who has an extra T-Mobile cell phone that they don’t need or aren’t using.  I just need one to use while I wait to get a new phone.  Thanks for your consideration people.   Just hit me up on Facebook or Myspace if you can help, or email me at risebaxelrod@gmail.com...

And its, too late to apologize...too laaaate.
Sorry for taking a short hiatus on the Fantasy Football Rips guys.  I have been getting a lot of complaints about their absence.  The problem is that I would usually do them on Thursdays but now with NFL Network playing games on Thursdays I have not gotten a chance to catch up.  I will try to post one this week for the final game.  Then I will compare it to the rip I made on Gilbert in week 1. ...
