Thanks for taking the time to give my new little blog here a chance. "What's it about?" is probably the first question, the answer is simple, whatever happens to be on my mind at the moment. I really just wanted outlet to spew my ideas and possible frustrations with life as well as share movies, books, and television that I like. I am an artist and (wannabe) writer so discussions of that will be included here.
Conventions are a passion of mine, I have attended Dragon Con and SDCC as a guest, and have had the honor to have set up at Adventurecon, Connooga, and Megacon to name a few selling my art.
So now to tell you a little about myself..............
I am a huge fan of horror movies, any of them, the gorier the better. I am a big fan of the SAW franchise, also both Hostel movies (a little leery of the straight to DVD "Hostel 3" but I am excited about it). Rob Zombie's Halloween as well as Devil Rejects are both equally amazing.
Foreign movies such as Dead Snow, Inside, and Martyrs are can't miss as well. Martyrs is hands down the most F**Ked up movie I have ever seen. Now saying that, some people may not agree but this movie mentally screwed me up for a few weeks after seeing it. Horror is at a weird spot if you look at the American box office, so if you are tired of them I advise you to check out foreign movies to give you something original and well done.
Please if you love horror movies check out www.fearshop.com/podcast or look up fearshop.com horror podcast on iTunes. They are a great podcast and I have discovered alot of movies because of their entertaining banter.
I am a wrestling fan from way back, I get out of it every now and then but right now is Wrestlemainia season so things are really exciting. The Rock is hosting the "SuperBowl" of wrestling and that should lead to a memorable show. Monday Night Raw is coming to my town in May and I happened to just purchase my tickets this morning, I got really good viewing seats in the first balcony so I am pretty excited about that.
I watch mainly WWE and TNA but I do watch the occasional ROH and other independent promotions. TNA is very frustrating to watch but I enjoy some of their wrestlers like A.J. Styles, Samoa Joe, The Pope, Beer Money and a few others...
My music taste is a little odd, I like anything really some of my favorite bands are Mumford and Sons, Five Finger Death Punch, Devil Wears Prada, and Fair To Midland. I have a wide range of likes as you can tell.
So there is a brief description of what I might be talking about on this blog.
Thanks for stopping by and spread the word!
Richard
