The Craft
I caught the last half of The Craft on TV last night. It’s a movie I’ve seen several times, but for some reason I haven’t yet given it it’s proper GIK due. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this piece of ‘90s history, it follows a coven of California teenage witches doing [...]

If you haven’t already heard, Aaron Spelling died this week. Not only was Mr. Spelling a Dallas native and a fellow SMU Mustang, he was responsible for the majority of entertainment I have enjoyed in my life: “Charlie’s Angels,” “Dynasty,” “Hart to Hart,” “90210,” and the greatest nightime soap of all time “Melrose Place” (you [...]

There reached a point when I was living in Chicago when everyday became pretty much exactly the same as the one before. I was unemployed at the time, and it wasn’t one of those I’m-really-excitied-and-optimistic-about-the-prospect-of-finding-a-new-job kinds of unemployment. It was more like an I-can’t-believe-I-couldn’t-get-a-job-working-the-front-counter-at-a-fucking-cleaners kind of unemployment. If you’ve never been there, I’ll try to [...]

It’s not often that I go to a theater and laugh my ass off for almost the entire length of the movie. Even some of the best comedies struggle at times. However, this weekend I got a chance to see what I believe might be the funniest film ever.
Tokyo Drift
Your refusal to drift disgusts me. [...]

I’m back, y’all. There was a time when I cared about telling the public about the works of Grieco and other films that almost defy description. Well, that time is here again. No longer will the people waste away in the darkness as films such as Raptor Island and Schindler’s List go unwatched. OK, Schindler’s [...]

I realize that GIK hasn’t been the same in a while. There are fewer posts and almost no movie reviews. Well, it’s because I’ve been spending way too much time on my “real” jobs. That’s gonna change, my friends. I’m getting rid of one of my real jobs, and focusing up on Grieco once again. [...]

I’m too angry about the Mavs game to talk about Grieco. Even basketball related Grieco type films such as The 6th Man starring Kadeem Hardison (Dwayne Wayne, not Dwayne Wade) as some sort of ghost who leads a team to victory won’t help. I’ll be back tomorrow. Go Mavs. Avenge me.

I caught about the last five minutes of a SciFi channel piece entitled Path of Destruction. From the description on my guide and the various fake newscasts that occur at the end of the picture, I gathered that it invoves some sort of cloud of nanotechnology that takes on a life of its own and [...]

I’ve been thinking about the perfect way to celebrate reaching 100 posts. I thought maybe I could go back and watch some of the earlier GIK films to see if they still hold up, but I realized that that would involve all kinds of Julia Stiles and I just can’t put myself through that. Then, [...]

Thanks to all of you who cast your vote and helped me decide which movie to move to the top of my Netflix list. If you didn’t vote, you can still check out the descriptions to see what you passed on, and you can curse yourself for the rest of your days for missing out [...]
