I just watched this movie last night. It was hardcore, to say the least.

This is currently number 1 on my list of movies I need to watch. I'm downloading it as we speak. Check out the trailer (it doesn't really explain much).

I try to support the blog community as much as I possibly can. It's mostly bloggers who have contributed to the success of Analog Medium. I like to give as much back as possible.

There are many amazingly awesome blogs out there, many dealing with movies. Two of my favorites are honored Analog Medium link buddies. Check these pages out. You might learn something.

2 Best Movies... EVER

Ghostbusters (1984) / Transformers: The Movie (1986)

There you have it folks. Take it as fact, take it as opinion, it doesn't change the greatness of these two movies. When I was a kid I used to watch Ghostbusters multiple times in a row while playing with my Optimus Prime action figure. Not a lot has changed since then. Not only do both these movies appeal to all ages, they've appealed to me at every age. I've seen each of them hundreds of times and I still go back for me. Call me a nerd if you must. You still gotta admit that both these movies pwn.

The Funky Socks Collection

Music kicks ass. Almost as much as movies. That's why I love pandora.com. Pandora is currently my favorite source of musical wonderment. Check out the station I programmed:

It's a little bit of everything, but mostly it just rocks your damn socks off.

Recipe For Disaster: What NOT To Do When Filming A Movie

Most great movies leave the viewer with the impression that the elements involved in making it effortlessly coalesced into a masterpiece. However, if you do any research into the making of these great movies, you find out making a movie is retardedly difficult. No wonder the people who make them are so fucking crazy. If you ever wanted to make one yourself, it always helps to learn from those who came before you. Some of these things might sound stupid at first, but they’ll make sense when the grip truck on your shoot overheats and catches a field on fire.





















#1) Don’t start any fires, stupid. Literal or otherwise.

#2) Don’t invite forty people to your house and once they arrive tell em they can’t smoke.

#3) Don’t wake people up at 5 AM without having coffee ready first.

#4) Don’t forget to put beer in the budget.

#5) Don’t ask anyone, no matter their job title, to clean the porta-potties by hand.

There’s so much they don’t teach you in film school. Knowing is half the battle.

The Silver Screen Kid

Recently I, The Kid, had a life altering experience. I worked for five days as “second assistant director” on a film shoot budgeted at $30,000. My life-long dream is to become a well-respected filmmaker, and this was a huge step in the right direction. The experience as a whole was bittersweet, however. I was worked to the point of near-insanity and barely walked away with my life (I’m exaggerating of course). One of the worst hardships I faced was being away from the Internet for five days straight. Never again!!!1

More than just the Internet, I missed Analog Medium. I get a wonderful sense of accomplishment, and even a sense of purpose, from my work on AM. I hate to think that anyone out there stopped reading AM due to my absence. That scary thought prompted Mark Rogers to convince me to start my own blog. And the rest is history.

This blog will never be as cool as Analog Medium. I’ll never try to compete; Analog Medium is a beast unto its own. This SSK blog will merely be a bloodstained window into the depths of my inner-anarchy. If you like what I write, enjoy. If not, tell me. I want to know. (Other posts will be a lot funnier than this one, by the way).
