What we’re Enjoying Jay got a little nutty by rewatching some old Jerry Lewis comedies. The Ladies Man and The Errand Boy are classic Lewis humor that is a great break from the real world. Shua is surprisingly enjoying the pirate themed series Star Wars Skeleton Crew. A romp through the galaxy that crosses Star Wars with the Goonies.
Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay examines some social commentary with Neill Blomkamp’s District 9. The 2009 alien immigrant film reflects a sad and ugly truth about the way humans treat each other. A gritty story set in the near future that features a poor character slowly realizes that bigotry is an issue that everyone should be aware and try to eliminate. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.
Enjoy Dragons! Dragon tales have been told since the times of Mesopotamian mythology. Some believe that dragons may have been creatures to watch out for as far back as 75,000 years ago in South Africa. Whenever they began, their popularity has not waned. So when we began to make motion pictures, dragons were the perfect foils. We look at dragons from Puff to Maleficent to King Ghidorah. Are they rideable? What are some defining characteristics? Are they good or bad. Hop on for luck as Enjoy Stuff gets dragony!
