I just posted the newest Reel Review – The King of Kong. While it has been a while since the last episode this is an amazing documentary that you should see. Who would think that a documentary about the Donkey Kong high score championship would be so compelling? The characters in this story are fascinating. The story line is almost unbelievable – it is awesome. Universally hailed as an amazing documentary – time to check out The King of Kong. Link to Reel Review.
For those of my readers who are film buffs, a legend has passed. Ingmar Bergman has died at the age of 89. The New York Times has a good write up. For those of you who have never seen a Bergman film, do yourself a favor and rent The Seventh Seal, (pictured above) you’ll understand after that. Sad day.
I am itching to do some Reel Reviews. I have a backlog of films I’d love to do but thought a theme might be fun. How about a week of the definitive midnight films: El Topo, Pink Flamingos, The Harder They Come, The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Eraserhead? Yes, no, maybe so?

I have turned MWGblog back on and will use it as my person site.
