Photoshop Elements Makes Life Simpler
Everyone who has read EM for any length of time knows that I’m a fan of Adobe. I generally love working Premiere but never had much use for Flash or Photoshop. Not because I think they are bad products, but because they are overly complicated for my simple needs. I actually use Premiere to create […]
John Rambo Is No Rocky Balboa!
Despite an opening montage that tells us Rambo is going to Say Stuff and Be About Something, it proceeds from that point to be a luridly messy action flick that has its roots in the exploitation flicks of the sixties. Sadly, writer/director/star Sylvester Stallone – who really got the final Rocky movie right – has […]
Untraceable Is Unconscionable!
Untraceable is one of those movies that tries to Say Something while luridly pandering to an audience that isn’t likely to be listening.
Trading Spaces: Paige Davis Talks to Eclipse and Returns In Triumph!

I’m sure they don’t have the vast resources […]

Oscars Are Announced and we give a collective Yawn
I was going to post this yesterday, but the Heath Ledger tragedy took priority and somehow talking about the Oscar race after his death seemed a little weird. I have to say that while I’m not enthused with this year’s selections, I agree with most of them. The only rant that I would have is […]
