    ‘Dune’ Is the Reason to Go Back to the Movie Theater

    If you’re looking for a reason to go back to the movie theater, the stunning visuals and epic scale of Dune is worth seeing in IMAX.

  • Fans are why we can’t have nice things

    Fans are why we can’t have nice things

    This year, we saw some pretty crappy “fan” behavior, from Rick and Morty fans storming McDonald’s for dipping sauce to Star Wars fans claiming The Last Jedi ruined their childhoods. Was it always like this, or were fans of 2017 just way, way too passionate about pop culture?

  • Justin Bieber wants you Colorado

    We just got in this press release about a Justin Bieber singing contest in Colorado. While this might not be my cup of tea, I’m sure there are a zillion Colorado girls who would die to go to the premiere of the Justin Bieber movie in LA.

    Oh the VMAs! Where do I start? With the passing of Michael Jackson, I was worried that the days of precision choreography, visual feasts for the eyes and pop songs you didn’t mind hearing a zillion times on Top 40 radio were a thing of the past. Thankfully MTV seemed to subscribe to the “go…

  • Shaq and Lou Amundson Love the 80s

    Everyone knows I love the Suns and, if you follow me on twitter, you know that I have a recurring theme of tying the Suns to Prince’s outstanding 80s music/movie extravaganza Purple Rain. Never could I imagine that the two things would meet in one place, but now they have… plus a little Michael Jackson,…

  • Vanilla Ice at the Pepsi Center

    Here’s a few clips of Vanilla Ice performing live at the Pepsi Center during halftime at the Denver Nuggets game tonight. Totally the highlight of my week! While he was on stage, I flashed back to myself as a kid in the early 90s dancing to this song and thinking he was so hot. Then…
