The Muppets Mayhem (2023)

Gen X Remember Your Childhood

[9/10 · 12 May 2023]

If you grew up watching the Muppet Show & their movies you are going to love this show!

It is a great introduction to for a new generation to experience Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem in The Muppets Mayhem!

It was beyond cute and reminded me of my childhood.

Their old hits mixed with modern music was a great mix.

I binged it in one night and it will be added to the rotation when I need a pick me up!

There is something for everyone unless you don't like music or don't like to laugh.

It made me remember how much I loved ANIMAL growing up!

It was family friendly without being patronizing.

Monster (2022– )

Niecy Nash Deserves ALL AWARDS

[10/10 · 23 September 2022]

Niecy Nash did an amazing job! She deserves every award possible for her performance in this limited series. She did Glenda Cleveland proud by getting her story out there and letting people know how she Ms. Cleveland stood up.

Evan sure can play a psycho.

If you think you know the story you do not unless you wrote a thesis on the serial killer's victims or it. This is very informative and you are going to learn a lot.

I wish they had put even more light on his victims so everyone knows their names: Steven Mark Hicks Steven Walter Tuomi James Edward Doxtator Richard Guerrero Anthony Lee Sears Raymond Lamont Smith Edward Warren Smith Ernest Marquez Miller David Courtney Thomas Curtis Durrell Straughter Errol Lindsey Tony Anthony Hughes Konerak Sinthasomphone Matt Cleveland Turner Jeremiah Benjamin Weinberger Oliver Joseph Lacy Joseph Arthur Bradehoft

His survivor's names! All his victim's family members and friends and community members.

The People vs the Klan (2021)

An Indictment of a racist state

[10/10 · 22 September 2021]

This is a great documentary that does a wonderful job of tying history to present day. It shows how lynchings have taken place over the decades.

It is easy to see that all the "1" reviews are by klan members or their supporters. That is shameful.

The Women (I) (2008)

The Worst

[3/10 · 15 September 2008]

I saw it tonight and fell asleep in the movie.

That is something that I have not done since - I have never fallen asleep at the movies.

I LOVE the original and have seen it several times and recommend it to everyone. This may have been the problem but I do not think so, because there were a couple of bright spots that showed if done right they could have made this movie work.

Bette was under used and Anne was over used and miscast.

I do not know why English or anyone for that matter let this go out in that condition.

They billed this as a Sex in the City but better? Not a chance I liked Sex in the City a lot and was disappointed by this movie.

So do not waste your money on this movie - go see anything but this!

Carrier (2008– )

Great television for everyone

[10/10 · 30 April 2008]

The honesty that the crew gives is what makes this documentary great TV.

This show has something for everyone! It gives you a great look inside life of Navy Aircraft Carrier. They hold no punches.

If the military thought they were going to get a recruiting tool BOY were they wrong.

After seeing just the 6 first "hours" I can understand why it took 3 years to edit.

The directors and editors deserve a big hand of getting this men and women's stories out there for everyone to see and understand.

As an ex-military brat and having an uncle in the Navy I have heard a lot of similar stories before but they all still sound fresh today.

The best part about the documentary is that they allow servicemen and women to tell their own story without any voice over!

This is a masterpiece and deserves an Emmy or two.

Hope Along the Wind: The Life of Harry Hay (2002 Video)

A must see for anyone working to make a positive change

[9/10 · 7 June 2003]

In a world where gay history is hard to come, by here is film that spells out one of the many stories that makes up the beginning of the modern day gay civil rights movement.

Harry Hay was/is an inspiration to anyone willing try and help make the world a better place for everyone.

This is a great piece of documentary work. If your GLBT film festival has not shown it demand that they show it as soon as possible.

Seventy (2003)

It is never too late for your dreams to come true.

[9/10 · 7 June 2003]

I saw this at the Adam Baran Honolulu Gay & Lesbian Film Festival and it was great! A must see when it comes to your film festival. A reminder to the gay community (and everyone else) that just because you get older does not mean that your fantasies can't come true. Because they can!
