Posted on August 29, 2005 by Solonor

I have my Bruce “Don’t Call Me Ash” Campbell bookmark and a pocket full of memories… or is that a popcorn shell?

Posted on August 16, 2005 by Solonor

Well, we’re back from seeing Man with the Screaming Brain, and I must say it was magnificently bad. In fact, I declare that it is the most wondrously horrible movie ever to take brain transplants, wanton sex, cat fights, exploding … Continue reading → Continue reading →

Why is everything here completely pointless?

Posted on July 19, 2005 by Solonor

Continuing with our theme of wonderful childhood fantasy… THE YANKEES SUCK, but not as much as the Red Sox!!!! Three fricking hits against Tampa Bay??? Oh. My. Gawd. Wait. No, that wasn’t it. Sorry about that. Baseball tourettes. We went … Continue reading → Continue reading →

Now that’s my kind of review!

Posted on July 5, 2005 by Solonor

Is there any better idea in the universe than having the Muppets Statler and Waldorf do movie reviews? Only if it’s Pepe the Prawn presenting the latest DVD releases (“Miss Congenitalia 2, ok?”). Sure, it’s a little tame compared to … Continue reading → Continue reading →

There most certainly is a need to fear!

Posted on June 22, 2005 by Solonor

My cerebral Batman review

Posted on June 18, 2005 by Solonor

Oh. My. Gawd. That was aaaaaaaaawesome! Only my love of Spidey prevents me from declaring it the best ever. And I pity anyone who tries to make a decent superhero movie from now on. Continue reading →

We’ve always been Batty

Posted on June 17, 2005 by Solonor

KHAAAAAN!

Posted on June 13, 2005 by Solonor

OK, that was seriously fun. I haven’t watch the whole of The Wrath of Khan in years. It was made cooler by forcing our kids to sit down and watch it with us. No, they didn’t do anything wrong. Shut … Continue reading → Continue reading →

It’s a busy life in Camelot

Posted on June 13, 2005 by Solonor

I think there was some confusion about my recent post where I said I was needing to start up a promotional site. I meant another one. (“lestah.com” is available, actually.) I’m not shutting down solonor.com for a good long time. … Continue reading → Continue reading →
