EPISODE 111: THE CRAZIES

Mom and I sat down and watched the George Romero classic, The Crazies. There isn't a lot of food in this movie, and I wasn't fixing to eat cold soup direct from the can, so we got diner food. We picked this movie as Hanta Virus and Ebola are hot topics this summer. Who knows if we'll have another pandemic? In this movie, they were ready to nuke small town Pennsylvania...could that happen in real life? Who knows.

I had my microphone too close to my face the whole time, and with a computer, a notebook and a couple of cats in my lap, it was hard to get comfortable LOL.

Ending our streak of favorite movies on our way to Episode 100, Mom and I sat down and watched Abigail. A bright spot in Universal Pictures Dark Universe, this movie is great.

EPISODE 90: BYZANTIUM

Mom and I started our Countdown to Episode 100, with Byzantium. This is one of my favorite movies, by one of my favorite directors, Neil Jordan. The recording was a little wonky because the first twenty minutes got doubled when someone's ear touched my computer screen. I'm not naming names, but it starts with Tallulah. Prepare to hear me gushing. And continue to follow along as we continue to countdown to episode 100. LOL this is the first time Mom and I have planned a block of 10 movies. We are...
