The 5th Leaf: Snoop, Snoop, Snooping Around

OK, No Pete this week, so bear with me. It took me a bit longer to put everything together writing solo and the pictures offered by AMC were all of Will looking paranoid, so I skipped it. Recap of “Look at the Ant” We open on a gloved hand picking a lock. It turns out [...]

A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Typecast

What I want to talk about today really came to me on the way in while listening to the /Filmcast podcast. It struck me that one of the funnier, more bankable, and likable guys in movies today is in grave danger, and perhaps is already fallen prey to typecasting. And while I’m writing this I realize [...]

The 5th Leaf: No Split Decisions

“The Outsider” Recap by Seth Will traveled to Washington, D.C. with Spangler, but not before encountering a mysteriously sexy new neighbor.

Their mission [...]

The 5th Leaf: Church, Meet State. State, Church.

The 5th Leaf is going to be a weekly feature on AMC’s Rubicon. It will feature thoughts from myself and my buddy Peter Bonilla. More than likely, he will give you insightful, thoughtful prose and I will interject silly pictures and jokes. At least we know our places.

A Matter of the Utmost Importance: Retreads

Seems like it’s been awhile which is a direct result of the fact that it has been awhile. Speaking of summer, these box office offerings SUCK. Just bottom line, stink. Lots of muck, muck, and more muck.There aren’t many original properties being produced this summer as big budget films (save for Nolan’s Inception) and almost [...]

GET FIRED UP: AUGUST

Well, I took a little break, had a pretty crazy July, but I’m back. Sorry! I’ll try to work my way back into writing, but I’ll probably be a little rusty. Together though I think we can knock off the rust. And now onto what to look for in August: TV The guy from GLEE [...]

GET FIRED UP!: JUNE 2010

It’s about this time of the year when I remember how very hot my city gets. VERY HOT. To the point where simply walking to and from work would ideally involve a change of clothing, but rarely does. Take today for instance, I walked to work, leaving my house at about 7:30 in the morning [...]
