Just Came Back From "The Dark Knight"

Wow.

Just . . . wow.

Too much to process right now. Review at The X Bridge this Monday . . . unless Cristobal forms down in the Carolinas crippling the interweb for yours truly.

I didn't make it back home until 2:30 a.m. but I did enjoy it. And not a five-year-old in sight! :D

I read your review over at the Bridge and that theater you went to sounds really cool. However, my vote still goes to the one over in Bucyrus, they have really good subs and tables you can sit and eat them at while you watch the movie.

......I.. really could have done without that guy getting blown up in the station though...

I had the same reaction to the film. Wow, just wow. How could this film suck so much?!

I felt the same thing, amplified by the fact that I saw it on an IMAX screen!

Damn film took my breath away. I'm rallying for a Best Picture nod, and if it doesn't get it, it will show that the film itself is TOO GOOD for Oscar.

I will see it a second time, in theaters as opposed to DVD.

Building A Better Media Conglomerate

Image
Want to play a little game?  Back in the day when I was working full-time on TXB, I created a series of articles called "Imagine If." Essentially, reimagined scenarios of media companies doing things they likely could have done in the past but decided against it.  Saban buying Funimation. Warner Communications keeping Nickelodeon. Ted Turner actually buying CBS. The USA Cartoon Express lasting beyond 1998.  Things like that.  This is no different.  I was given a challenge by reader and fellow AU scenario writer Chandler Ritter-Roberts over at Bluesky . The challenge?   Building a media company that could become a massive modern media conglomerate.  #BuildYourAltConglomerate, as his hashtag goes.  I could create a company as big as I want to counter what two of the biggest media companies, Warner Bros Discovery and The Walt Disney Company, could do and create a realistic media empire.  The one caveat in this game? While every media compan...

Project MTV: The Complete Guide

Image
In mid-September 2025, I had convinced myself to write out a plan that had been in my brain for a while that I never had the nerve to get out of my head.  I created an entire plan to reinvent, reimagine, and reestablish the MTV brand for the future.   To repeat what I said throughout the entirety of this project, I am not, nor will I ever expect to be associated with and employed by MTV and its parent company, Paramount Skydance. This is part of #projectmtv, a fan-made MTV rebranding project. This is not happening in any form, but it's fun to dream. And this was a fun project to create. While a lot of what I wrote can be lost in the ether, here are the chapters of #projectmtv: PROLOGUE: I Want My MTV Explaining the Science Reintroducing MTV: Music Television Presenting MTV Generation Presenting MTV Palladia Presenting Club MTV The FAST Lane The Rebirth of Liquid Television License to Survive Questions and Final Thoughts Reinventing MTV: A Visual Portfolio I even managed t...

Don't Give A Mouse A Cookie

Image
Merriam-Webster defines the term slippery slope as "a course of action that seems to lead inevitably from one action or result to another with unintended consequences." Laura Joffre Numeroff and Felicia Bond's If You Give A Mouse A Cookie is perhaps the greatest story to explain what a slippery slope is.  A kid gives a mouse a cookie, who then asks for a glass of milk to drink with the cookie, and then he asks for a straw to drink the milk. It goes on from there with a series of requests that ultimately ends up back to the mouse asking for another cookie and starting the cycle up again. I bring up this story and the slippery slope analogy because Cartoon Network fanatics still want MeTV Toons to add CN's catalog to that channel because Cartoon Network no longer airs those shows, and, instead of demanding THAT network airs them, they'll complain at MeTV Toons, and anyone connected to the channel for NOT airing them.  Seriously, since the day the network was annou...
