Clever illustration and animation guy Rich Cando created this Simpsons/Star Wars mash-up that I think you’ll enjoy. Accept for maybe a touch of tweaking in the animation itself, I don’t think Groening and crew could have done it much better themselves. The Simpsons – Star Wars Alternate Link

Today I came across a humorous Conan O’brien clip in which Conan visits the studio, checks out some of the movie memorabilia and […]

Jeff Milner Movie Review: Syriana
This afternoon I went out with my friend Steve and his wife Monique to see the movie Syriana. What an amazing show. So often with political thrillers they dumb the story down to nothing more than a glorified spy novel. Syriana embraces the complexity of the corporate and political world and brings it to the […]
