Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle and Charlie Chaplin Engage In Pugilistic Funny Business With “The Knockout” – Movie Review


By Chris Benedict
Of the countless films which Roscoe Arbuckle and Charlie Chaplin would plow through during their tenures at Mack Sennett’s Keystone Studios (Chaplin’s being of a mere 10-month duration), in only seven of them-between March 2 and September 7, 1914-would they appear together. Only the last, their hilarious drunken carousal in “The Rounders”, can be considered an equitable collaboration. Begrudgingly billed and still remembered as “Fatty” as well as overshadowed by the enduring legacy of Chaplin’s Little Tramp, it is sadly lost on many contemporary movie lovers what a pioneering comedic genius Roscoe Arbuckle was, not to mention one of cinema’s first truly beloved superstars. He mentored both Chaplin and Buster Keaton and it should go without saying that Chris Farley, John Belushi, and Jackie Gleason are a few who owed tremendous debts of gratitude to Roscoe.
Mega Riffs Vol 1- “Heartbreaker”


By Ian Murphy
To say this tune by English hard rock band Led Zeppelin was innovative is an understatement. Much press is given to the guitar prowess of Jimmy Page, but in reality, he was just as pioneering as a producer. Page was in the forefront with tones, layering and getting better sounds out of relatively primitive (by today’s standards) equipment in the studio. The opening riff to “Heartbreaker” is absolutely massive.

The Only Thing We Have To Fear Is “Fear The Walking Dead” Itself


Most Monday mornings during autumn and winter I find myself up in Human Resources. No, not to discuss my attendance or job performance, and certainly not any inappropriate workplace comments, but to talk The Walking Dead with our HR director. A married mother of two little boys in her early 30s, it may not sound like she would fall comfortably into the show’s targeted demographic. Which is the unique aspect of The Walking Dead-its ability to cast an impressively wide net in terms of diverse viewership for such a genre-specific program and drag so many seemingly unlikely people in, managing to somehow please both the blood-and-guts fanatics and ordinary folks who just enjoy intense, well scripted and acted drama.

We’re Back! The Return of Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry Means Halloween Comes Early to Cereal Shelves


General Mills has announced that they will once again be resurrecting from the cobwebbed breakfast cereal vaults their beloved sugar-coated, marshmallow-loving monsters Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and Boo Berry. This is music to the ears (think creaking doors, screeching cats, an ungodly boom of thunder, Lon Chaney’s Phantom playing his pipe organ deep in the Opera’s catacombs) of people like me who grew up, as children of the 1970s, not only devouring them at the kitchen table on weekend mornings, but sneaking bowl after bowl-overflowing with milk slowly turning brown, pink, or blue-into the living room while watching horror movies on late night TV.

Men Do Make Passes at Girls Who Wear Glasses: A Tribute to Yvonne Craig (1937-2015)


Sadly, Yvonne Craig, best known for her role as “Batgirl” on the 1960’s TV series version of “Batman”, passed away on Monday at her Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles home, after a long two year battle with breast cancer.
Whoever invented the saying: “Men don’t make passes who girls who don’t wear glasses” apparently never got a glimpse of Yvonne Craig in the Batman series. Yvonne played role of conservative librarian Barbara Gordon, daughter of Commissioner Gordon. However, her alter ego was the sexy Batgirl, ally to Batman and Robin in their Gotham City crime fighting crusades.

Cormac McCarthy’s New Novel “The Passenger” Gets Sneak Preview at Public Reading


Although the eminently reclusive author did not participate in the staged reading of excerpts from The Passenger, what will be his first novel in ten years, Cormac McCarthy did appear onstage at the conclusion of the event to thank the audience assembled at Santa Fe, New Mexico’s Lannan Foundation. Actress Caitlin McShea and evolutionary biologist David Krakauer performed passages of the book rumored to be thirty years in the making. The Passenger will reportedly be published at a still unspecified time in 2016, which will also mark the 50th anniversary of McCarthy’s literary debut The Orchard Keeper, and evidently involve a heavily scientific plotline.

Straight Outta Compton Hit Movie: But a Sad Commentary on Society! (Must Read ARTICLE)
“You are what you eat”. This manner of thinking is widely accepted in today’s society. People know that a healthy diet and lifestyle typically yields a healthy life. Conversely, a diet riddled in high fat and sugars, fast foods, and empty calories typically results in health problems, such as diabetes, obesity, and generally poor health.
We accept this fact regarding the things that we put into our bodies, but do we accept this in what we put into our minds? This week, a movie entitled “Straight Outta Compton” topped the box office with a $56.1 million opening. Social media has been buzzing about the movie, and demographics show that the majority of movie goers were under age 30….. and the majority were female. That fact is troubling to me. Why? For more reasons than a few.
