*Not* ScottC

ScottC, head of the Needcoffee Archaeological Society, is in charge of the project to get old content from its boring original HTML form and into Wordpress. Here are some things that were freed with a few blows of his mighty pick axe. (Which sounds like a euphemism...but is not.)

  • On the Pixar side of the house, our Monsters Inc. DVD Review.
  • For documentaries, Anne Frank Remembered and John Cleese's The Human Face
  • For anime: some Strange Dawn; Burn Up Excess; Jin-Roh; and a take on Alice in Wonderland, Miyuki-Chan in Wonderland
  • Movies about teenagers, some more grown than others: Grease; Not Another Teen Movie; Pretty in Pink; The Breakfast Club; The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
  • Comedies, some more successful than others: Soul Man; Punchline; and the classic Big Trouble in Little China
  • Prepping for the new Sherlock Holmes movie, we yanked out a pair of Jeremy Brett DVD releases for both feature films and television.
  • Continuing to pull out our Star Trek reviews, here's Star Trek VI and the third season of Voyager
  • On the action front, Iron Monkey, Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs
  • And as we start to prep for this year's 32 Days of Halloween, here's White Zombie
  • And also, a Promethea comic review.

    DragonCon 2009 Backstage at the Hyatt

    Moments after this picture was taken, Shatner and Nimoy's entourage of security ninjas descended upon us. We barely escaped with our lives.

    Normal posting is starting to return. But a moment to recover and recap from the madness that is DragonCon, however.

    Punch cards

    Spelunking through eleven years of previous posts continues, with ScottC and myself digging through. Here's some bits that have now gone from boring static HTML to glorious sparkly Wordpress.

    More coming as the drill goes further downward.

    Hi folks. The utterly true story of how I spent thirteen years thinking I had something medically wrong with me and it turns out I don't. I share this story in the hopes that it can be of use to somebody. Warning: video is a true and serious story and may or may not have snippets of humor.

    Card catalog

    In an effort to drag our ten years' worth of archives kicking and screaming into the cold unblinking light of the 21st Century (remember, the site's been around for 11+ years), ScottC has been spearheading the effort to get a bunch of pages converted into Wordpress from their original HTML versions. The oldest from this batch is from 1998.

    We've pulled up the Harry Potter reviews, including both the movie review and DVD review of Sorcerer's Stone and the DVD review for Chamber of Secrets. We have two movie reviews for it, from myself and Catalyst.

    And we've pulled up--trying to get our array of Trek stuff into Wordpress--the DVD reviews for Voyage Home, Final Frontier and Nemesis.

    And in the random department, both the movie reviews for Robert Downey Jr. in Two Girls in a Guy and Russell Crowe in The Insider have been updated as well.
