Easy Cheese
I’ve previously written about Uncrustables and Goober Grape but this seems like it might be the most American food of them all. USA USA USA What I knew I mean, it’s cheese from a spray can. I don’t know that I needed to know much else. I always assumed that it was kind of a Continue reading

Happy Gilmore
In retrospect, I can’t tell if a writing about a series of nuclear apocalypse-themed movies and then leaving that post up top for months was the best or worst idea. I suppose there are only four of you reading this and you all know that 1. I’m still alive and 2. not in a bunker. Continue reading

Threads
As a kid, I remember being fascinated by nuclear war. Not GOOD fascinated, you understand. I was terrified – like, sobbing in bed while the adults listened to the news in other room level terrified. But also fascinated. I remember a book in grade school about a kid whose house had a fallout shelter, and Continue reading

The Snoopy Sno-cone Machine
When I was a little kid, I wanted everything. I’d like to think I’m better about it now but I’m writing this waiting for the Nintendo Switch 2 preorders to begin. What I knew One of my many childhood wants was the Snoopy Sno-cone Machine. Makes sense. I loved Peanuts comics. I loved treats. And Continue reading

There’s a new Homestar Runner cartoon to celebrate their 25th anniversary. 25 years of Homestar seems impossible but the math checks out and also makes me feel close to death – even more so than normal.* It was bad enough when I went to the one work function we had during covid lockdown times – Continue reading

Fritz the Cat
Sometimes you scroll through what’s leaving Prime soon and sometimes you make a decision and sometimes you have an experience. What I knew Dirty cartoon cat movie. Not really much beyond that, though. It was a thing I’d heard references to but had never really looked into it. I suppose I could say the same Continue reading

The Tragically Hip: No Dress Rehearsal
This only came out last year, but it still feels like something I should have seen by now. Which I now have. You know what I mean. What I know I’m Canadian and of a certain age, so quite a bit. Bought all the albums. Seen them in concert: Two things stand out to me Continue reading

Grizzly Man
I already said I didn’t mean for this to be a movie blog, but I especially didn’t mean for it to become a documentary blog. At least the next one is going to be more of a miniseries instead of a feature-length film. Branching out! What I knew Very famous and critically successful documentary! Werner Continue reading

An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn
I watched one good movie. Got it out of my system. What I knew I read Spy magazine in the 90s. I don’t really know why. It offered nothing for a teenager from Saskatchewan, other than you could occasionally see a boob sometimes. I think I was just the kind of kid who would read/watch/listen Continue reading

Moon
As you might have noticed from my picks here recently, I’ve been staying pretty far away from anything that isn’t funny or light. I attribute this to basically everything happening in the world. Since my last post, I’ve watched Mr. Dressup: The Magic of Make-Believe, The Sound of 007, and The Greatest Night in Pop, Continue reading
About Me
James. 49. Canadian. He/him. Here for everything I’ve missed.
There’s a musician with my name. I’m not him. He’s probably seen The Godfather.
