Dear Mr. Watterson
This was never meant to be solely a movie review blog, but one of my New Year’s resolutions was to watch more movies. Another was to write more. Plus, I don’t really have a way to write about Calvin + Hobbes here otherwise. What I knew I’ve read every Calvin + Hobbes strip a zillion Continue reading

WolfCop
You can count on me to support local arts. It might just take me a decade to do so. What I knew I knew it was about a wolfman who is also a cop. Locally made B movie. I think they won a contest with the idea to get some funding, maybe? And a guy Continue reading

Jackass Forever
Since the last update, the only Oscar nominee I’ve seen is Conclave. It was the kind of movie I wouldn’t have sought out for myself but maybe should as it was very good. Had a surprising number of turtles. The Oscars are a lot closer than I realized and I don’t think I’m going to Continue reading

Fantasy football
Happy Super Bowl Sunday! The state of everything is such that Fantasy Baseball at the End of the World feels a lot more relevant than this nonsense, but make time for nonsense we still must. Following a musical interlude, anyway. What I knew I don’t really care about sports. I like sports stories. 30 for Continue reading

A Serious Man
I told you I’d be focusing on Oscar movies. I just didn’t specify they’d be from 2009. In fairness, I watched this a few weeks ago. And since my last post, I did watch 2025 Best Picture nominee The Substance and Best Animated Feature Film nominees Flow and Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl. Enjoyed Continue reading

Caddyshack
I spend far too much time watching nonsense slop on my phone. Not TikTok, it’s not for me; I watch TikToks that have been reposted as Instagram Reels instead because I’m an adult. And I do that for far too long and then I’m sad about how much time I’ve wasted. I made a few Continue reading

David Byrne’s American Utopia
I didn’t set out for this to be Callback Week, but that’s just what happens sometimes. You know what’s weird? When I write a new post that links to an old post, the system tells me that someone linked to the post and I need to approve it. But I’m that someone! It’s fine! And Continue reading

Jay & Silent Bob’s Super Groovy Cartoon Movie
As I’ve previously mentioned, I’ve long since fallen off the Kevin Smith bandwagon, but I still have a soft spot for the guy, so here we are. Also, it was late but I wanted to watch something, and this “movie” barely clocks in at over an hour. Just like how it’s late right now but Continue reading

Goober Grape
Trying to write one of these on my phone. I wonder how much I’m going to have to fix later? Anyway. Let’s take a return trip to Smuckers’ unnecessary PB&J developments. What I knew It’s peanut butter and grape jelly in the same jar. Always seemed kind of pointless. But Uncrustables seemed pointless too and Continue reading

SLCR #369: Pulp (September 11, 2024)
WHAT. Hello. Happy new year! It’s been a minute. I didn’t ever officially say anything when I quit writing the SLCRs, largely because I didn’t really want to admit to myself that I’d stopped. It had been over 25 years! That’s a while! And I don’t like quitting things. I still play Pokémon Go. I 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.
