Fun at DragonCon


Hanging out at DragonCon with the boy, representing Encode Media Group and we got some interesting stuff and met some really interesting people.  If you're in the Atlanta area during Labor Day weekend, I highly recommend that you get a hotel and enjoy the festivities.  And maybe check out a panel or two... say like the panel I was on talking about SyFy Original movies.  I'll post the interview I did with two of the other members on that panel, Teagan and Kevin, real soon like.  Special thanks to Dan Carroll for all his help in letting us cover the Con.

The Wrong Cheerleader

The Wrong Cheerleader Thirteen movies in I think we've kind of figured out what the Wrong Series wants to do, though I do miss the early Wrongs which featured some kind of cockamamie plan behind the psychosis.  Now the Wrong movies usually feature some unstable person, at varying levels of instability, trying to force somebody to love them via The Crazy, occasionally with a social issue buried within the almost always fractured narrative.  Today the social issue is domestic abuse, which I will say the creators did a much better job of handling than when they attempted to tackle sexual assault in 'The Wrong Friend'. Our film starts with a girl lounging by the pool at her home, minding her own business, while being observed by the ultimate representation of evil in a Wrong movie, a guy in a black hoodie.  The girl eventually retreats into her home when she hears some sounds, and like every movie ever made, she yells out 'Hello?  Is anybody there?' and like every movie

The Wrong Crush

The Wrong Crush So here's what we know so far with the DeCoteau / Vivica Fox productions of the their Wrong series, now that we are four movies in.  They are down with some Title IX.  Title IX being a federal clause that more or less levels the playing field for women's sports at public institutions.  Yep, these guys are big on girls sports, particularly track.  No matter what the movie may be about, we have been guaranteed seeing well formed young women doing some kind of sports activity. Did Vivica run track in high school?  Sure, looking at Vivica in 2021 one might think she's not particularly designed for speed, but back in the day?  I can see Vivica ripping off 200 meters in about 25 seconds.  But all of that rigmarole to the side, we have The Wrong Crush to deal with, which saddens me to say it just wasn't Wrong enough.   Today's well formed grown-ass woman playing a teenage girl is Amelia as played by Victoria Konefal.  In Ms. Konefal's grown-ass defense,

The Ladies of Adam Sandler - Pt. II

Continuing with Rolando's shameless and inexcusable objectification of the fairer species, and truly I'm no better since I'm allowing myself to be used as a conduit to this objectification, we will now examine the second tier of the Ladies who have played love interests to Adam Sandler in his various films.  11. Fairuza Balk - The Waterboy Some claim Billy Madison, others champion Happy Gilmore, and there are even those who side by The Wedding Singer, but I will always stand by The Waterboy as Adam Sandler's greatest cinematic achievement.  This brings us to Bobby Boucher's object of affection, Vicki Vallencourt as played by Fairuza Balk.  There might be prettier women than Fairuza, there might be more ample women than Fairuza, but Fairuza brings the beauty, the sexy, and the hint that at any given moment she could pull out a knife and stab you to death.  Brother, that's a level of dangerous edge living that all the money in the world can't buy.  1
