http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Sunday, July 26, 2009. Movie Trio: Indie Love. 500) Days of Summer. Which has received much critical acclaim since. It's release at Sundance earlier this year, finally got release in St. Louis this weekend. Kurt and I went and saw and were much amused by. This film that is not a love story, but a story about love. In this. Day and age where most movies are sterilized and idealized stories. About 2 people falling madly in love against all reason, it's a nice.

Crafty Haworth: Worst drivers in the world?
http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2010/03/worst-drivers-in-world.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Worst drivers in the world? So was just going to tweet this, but I couldn't adequately condense all my frustration (and fear of dying) into just 140 characters. Used to, my go-to example story of bad St Louis drivers:. One day on a major thoroughfare, at a stoplight I watched as a person in the right-hand turn lane with their right turn signal on, turned LEFT across seven lanes of traffic. St Louis drivers that's who. Kurt Pankau Dot Com.

Crafty Haworth: Movie Trio: Surprise (to me) Mockumentaries
http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2009/08/movie-trio-surprise-to-me.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Sunday, August 9, 2009. Movie Trio: Surprise (to me) Mockumentaries. Finally saw Big Man Japan. Seeing it reminded me of other movies that surprised me by being mockumentaries, and I think benefited from being told as a mockumentary rather than the usual narrative. 1) Drop Dead Gorgeous. This came out less than a year after Happy Feet. 3) The Blair Witch Project. When this one came out I had seen the "making of" special on SciFi channel and the Blair Witch. I Fai...

Crafty Haworth: February 2010
http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Saturday, February 13, 2010. Percy and the Cliff Notes. So went and watched Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. While visiting Mom; it's a kid's movie so Mom was interested in seeing it, and there's no talking animals in it so it's easier for me stomach. Mostly, though, I was curious as to how it handled Greek mythology. Overall, pretty good, but there were a few things I found a little annoying. 3: A burning hell? 2: The real lightning thief wa...

Crafty Haworth: April 2009
http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Thursday, April 23, 2009. So I think I'll just share something that was shared by Jon Hodgman via his twitter-feed. A few week's ago. If you go here to this google map. Of a location in Pittsburg, and click on "Street View" you'll see them. No, go and look. I'll wait. Yep, those are LARPers and they can be seen in another view which someone else blogged about here. Go, browse, it's amusing. Meanwhile I'm finally watching The Forbidden Kingdom. So, I was going to ...

Crafty Haworth: Movie Trio: Before they were in this Summer's Blockbusters
http://craftyhaworth.blogspot.com/2009/07/movie-trio-before-they-were-in-this.html
Musings and projects and geekness, oh my. Monday, July 6, 2009. Movie Trio: Before they were in this Summer's Blockbusters. I am a movie geek in that I can never seem to watch just one movie and I love to make connections between movies that don't seem to be otherwise connected. Starting in college, I liked pairing movies for "double feature" nights. Sometimes the pairings make sense, like Grosse Pointe Blank. And The Big Hit. 2005) - Shia LaBeouf as the comic-relief sidekick. 2) The Chronicles of Riddick.
