Google Now is a nice tool for finding a new show.

     I know I've written about a few new shows I have gotten into after looking to fill the void left by Breaking Bad.  One of the ways I found them was using Google Now in the phone I got when I upgraded off of a much outdated phone running on Gingerbread, (Android 2.3.4).  It helped me find Almost Human, and I got the correct time to set my DVR for the recent Doctor Who special The Day of the Doctor.  I kept seeing a list of shows, when I selected them it had an option to listen to my TV, then boom a list of stuff on popped up.  You can also say the name of a show or movie you're interested in and get info sent to you on stuff you're looking forward to.

Google Now does give you a lot of help in the initial set up but knowing what to say, and when to say it to get the info you want can be tricky and take some time to learn.  I had to play around with it a but to get the info on my new favorite shows, luckily the people at trendblog made a nice infographic to help hard heads like me out and are sharing it with everyone.

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies.  I watched the entire franchise in two days after not seeing any of the films since I was a kid. I know things are opening up and the weather is nice, but we're not quite out of the COVID-19 woods yet. Since that is the case I am still re-watching old horror flicks and catching ones I might have missed . The Phantasm series stretches to almost 40 years of horror, beginning in what I feel was the best time for horror films, the 80s. The first one, Phantasm (1979) came out when I was still wet behind the ears, barely a kid. I didn't even set eyes on it until the early 80s. All I could remember about the movie was "The Tall Man,' played by Angus Scrimm in all the films, those flying chrome-plated death spheres, and little dudes in cans.  Along with Scrimm, the film stars Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornberry, and Reggie Bannister. Baldwin plays Mike Pearson, who is the...

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love. By looking for things to write about, I found that my love for reading balances out with my love of writing. Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better.  Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King . So, when I went looking for instruction on how he writes, I found his book ...
