Saving Silverman, by Albert W. Vogt III
It is interesting to look at how cinematic tastes change. When I was in my late teens and early twenties, because I was an idiot, I would go to the theater whenever anything with Jason Biggs or Jack Black opened, mainly because they were who my friends wanted to see. This is a roundabout way…
The Last Legion, by Albert W. Vogt III
I have no problem with historical fiction. Some of the best tales of the past that I have read or seen are of this variety. On the literary side, my recommendation is Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe series. When it comes to film, you cannot do much better than Master and Commander: The Far Side of the…
The Boss, by Albert W. Vogt III

Super Troopers 3, by Albert W. Vogt III

If this third installment is any indication, they are hour and a half long excuses for scatological humor dressed in Vermont State Police uniforms. Does that make me a traitor to my generation…

Running the risk of repeating myself, I feel compelled to remind you that Disney has more films than you might imagine. This occurs to me every time I am searching through the menus on the Mouse’s streaming service, Disney+. I have reviewed many of them, and it will take some time to get to them…
Leatherheads, by Albert W. Vogt III
With professional football getting set to begin a new season, I thought it might be nice to go back to its roots. We tend to look at the National Football League (NFL) as king of the American sports world, but 100 years ago that was not the case. If anyone paid attention to gridiron play,…
Vampires vs. the Bronx, by Albert W. Vogt III
Before you say no, let me tell you more about Vampires vs. the Bronx (2020). I know the title might have put you off. I cannot deny feeling any different, and that is without taking into consideration my latest distaste for horror flicks. Two things initially swayed me in putting it on: latent fatigue from…
