The Path to 9/11 Review/Analysis Part 3

Continued from part 2. Fact-Checking Something else to consider. Aside from the bullshit reasons for trying to keep the film off the air, and the reasons for keeping the film off of DVD/Blu-Ray distribution (so far succeeding on that front), it would be a good idea to bring up the criticisms the film is facing. … Continue reading The Path to 9/11 Review/Analysis Part 3

The Path to 9/11 Review/Analysis: Part 2

Rating: 4/5 Note: See part 1 for more information on this film. Analysis of the Film The film is made in a Paul Greengrass style (ironic, considering that United 93 was released in the same year, as was Oliver Stone's World Trade Center; 2006 was quite a year for 5 year 9/11 anniversary films), and … Continue reading The Path to 9/11 Review/Analysis: Part 2

Don’t Breathe Review

I’m starting to think film critics are seeing the recent competence in horror films like The Witch and Lights Out, and are beginning to confuse it with simple competence.

Just because it’s independent doesn’t mean it isn’t biased: A response to Democracy Now’s report: “Florida State Attorney Behind Trayvon Martin Case Defeated”

First I should mention my history with Democracy Now, a 1 hour independent news program that airs Monday through Friday on the Link Channel and on Los Angeles KCET 28 (my local channel). I was introduced to this program many many years ago by a friend of mine, but my viewings of the program have … Continue reading Just because it’s independent doesn’t mean it isn’t biased: A response to Democracy Now’s report: “Florida State Attorney Behind Trayvon Martin Case Defeated”

Path to Paradise Review

"Great. Freedom of religion protects a bunch of murdering fanatics. And if these guys feel like blowing us off with a line of sermon there's not a goddamn thing we can do about it. Back home the police would be shoving barb wire up their asses. No wonder they all come here." "America. A great … Continue reading Path to Paradise Review
