CRAP!

I don't get TCM, and all three movies I want to see! Heck, NEED to see as a cartoon reviewer.

I've been kinda inspired by your retrospectives and want to try my hand at some "retro reviews" maybe starting next month. I'm mostly talking movies, though I am planning on reviewing David Garnett's "Lady into Fox" for Halloween (it's a ghost story and even horror story by my definitions), kind of like I did with Clive Barker's "Sacrement" last year.

I'm kind of info-dumping here, but I've got a comic book review I need to write, an awards column, a review of the new Pokemon games, plus another opinion/pretensious essay on horror, but my computer is on the fritz, so Green Reaper will probably get them all a bit late, unless I come up with an alternative soon.

But anyway, if you have TCM, at least watch the bug movie (which has more A.K.A.s than a Mafia hitman). I've heard ... mixed things, but it sounds fun at least.

Also, I always suspected that "Kung Fu Panda 2"'s credits featured a shout out to "Prince Achmed". They both feature shadow puppets, and one of the depicted scenes seemed a lot like one of the more common screen grabs from the silent film.
