Still boggles my mind that I've interviewed all three of these legends. Twice, in some cases.

Screened "This Too Shall Pass" tonight. The story of a 1980s Mormon teenaged boy who resists his lifestyle & strikes out one night with his friends. 80s music, John Hughes references - wow. As my kid said: "Jeez Dad, whoever gave you this had clairvoyance." Watch for my review.

Re-watched Scanners last night. Doesn't hold up from what I remember sadly, but damn me if Michael Ironsides' line doesn't send shivers down the back of my neck. "We're gonna do this the Scanners way: I'm gonna suck your brain dry."

A chance to chat with a film legend. I think I might put on a little bit of the old Ludwig Von B. My interview with Malcolm McDowell. https://t.co/N1B33ARG2I

Malcolm McDowell's response to my observation that he killed Captain Kirk: "Well. It HAD to be done." Watch for my upcoming interview about his role in The Partisan.

With this amazing @EXO6Collectible likeness, I'm reminded of my time with @GeorgeTakei - probably the gentlest and most engaging @StarTrek guests I've had the privilege to host. He has the most welcoming and warmest light.

Tonight's celebratory double feature consisted of: Hot Tub Time Machine (2010) Real Genius (1985) ... and a ten-year old @jurawhisky.

Truly disappointing. I expected more from this film for such a heroic historical personality. My review of The Partisan. https://t.co/cYv3CRYB5a

Finished my 5k word treatise on the underestimated nature of Amanda Waller, director of the @DCOfficial anti-hero super team, The Suicide Squad. Reading 300+ comics, you are aware of divisions among bad people, people in bad situations, & people who just can't help let you down!

Send me a sample, Jimmy - you know with autographs and everything? Just so I know what you're talking about! (Heh!)

With the resurgence of interest in Space: 1999, this article I wrote about the comic from Charleston Comics that came out just after the TV series just resurfaced in my feed! This was also the last interview #NicolaCuti did before he sadly left us. I'm very proud it was mine.

I really wanted to enjoy this, but just didn't get the same joy out of it as I did the comic. https://t.co/WFyFMXjWVd

Probably the most underestimated character in comics, not only have I gained a new appreciation for Amanda Waller in writing about her history, but I think I'd enjoy channeling some of her force of personality these days! (Funny how Waller is voicing how I feel!)

What is good in life? Conan The Barbarian: - crush your enemies - see them driven before you. - hear the lamentations of their women. Captain John Kirk the Librarian: - my family is happy and well - bbq and cocktails abound - hear the clicks of my keyboard as I write

The Russian way of saying Helena is Yelena. Helena is my daughter. Just saying.
