Sin City (2005 Film)

The more I look back on some of these reviews of old school, games, movies, etc, the older I feel 😂. Today's topic will be no different as I look back on one of my favorite movies, especially since it is based on a comic series by one of my favorite writers. The movie is Sin City.

The film is based off the comic series of the same name and was created by the great Frank Miller. Along with Miller, Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino lend their talents to the film as well and honestly, the trio did a fantastic job with the movie. I love the fact that Miller had gotten a chance to director this movie, I mean it is only right because it is his book series.

This was the very first time I had heard of the Sin City Franchise as I was barely alive when the comic book first started. Needless to say I started looking the series up and it never disappointed.

The movie features the first, third and fourth books of the comic book series. The Hard Goodbye, The Big Fat Kill and That Yellow Bastard. The intro and outro of the movie, which was dubbed as The Customer is Always Right parts one and two was based off the sixth books Booze, Babes and Bullets.

Each short story was quite a joy to watch, but if I had to pick which one I enjoyed the most, I would have to say the Big Fat Kill which featured Clive Owen and Rosario Dawson. I also love the character Miho who was played by Devon Aoki.

But the biggest reason as to why I loved this movie is because of the whole film-noir style of it. The whole black and white concept has always been a favorite of mine. To be perfectly honest, I haven't really seen movies go to that style of film and it sucks because I think it is a pretty cool way to tell a story.

Sin City had a budget of 40 million dollars and nearly hit 160 million dollars in the box office.

I would also like take this opportunity to offer my thoughts and prayers to Brittany Murphy, Michael Clarke Duncan, Clark Middleton, Rutger Hauer and Powers Boothe who are sadly no longer with us. Rest In Peace 🙏🙏🙏.

I would also like to thank Frank Miller for bringing all of us yet another amazing comic book series as well Rodriguez and Tarantino for helping Miller to create an incredible film.

Check it out!

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob...

 Recently, I had found out that a family friend of ours named Nick Dickson had a stroke and people have been doing what they can to support him and his family. Nick is a local mechanic who has been serving this community for many, many years and has always been a generous, hard worker and honorable person at the Dickson's Garage along with his father Ken. He and his father are also local racing legends around here in Mifflin County having raced for a couple generations now. Nick and his family have always been honest with me and my family and has helped take care of our vehicles for many years. They are amazing,  hardworking people who now need our help. And according to the go fund me page that was set up by Andrea Baker and Valeri Thornburgh. The doctors had told his family that it will take months at minimum for him to be able to recover and will not be able to work for the foreseeable future. Please support anyway you can for the Dickson family in their time of need. ...
