Posted under VIDEOTAPE

[ This post and video contain massive spoilers ] (open video in a new window) A truly awesome number of people have been thrilled with my son’s reactions to watching the Star Wars movies, and it’s clear to everyone that he’s a huge fan of Luke Skywalker.

What If Famous Movie Themes Were Replaced With Pop Music?

Posted under VIDEOTAPE

My wife recently asked me when Star Wars was released. I told her 1977 and randomly thought of the popular music of the era and laughed imagining the movie with disco music instead of the orchestral genius of John Williams.

I ran across a really nutty one, got curious and discovered so many I hadn’t seen. Bearded Princesses? Hot Dog Princesses? Bowl of Water Pricesses!?! But I had to do a lot of searching, and […]

Posted under NOTEBOOK

Our childhoods are littered with moments when we felt small and everything else felt so big. The movies we watched. The stories we read. The people we met.
