The most famous mouse in the world is 81 years old. November 18, 1928 is the official birthday of Mickey Mouse. That is the date that “Steamboat Willie,” the first animated film with synchronized sound starring Mickey Mouse, was released. (more…)

To those of you new to my site. Fear not, I don’t give away movie endings and never will. I personally hate that, and won’t watch a movie on TV if it’s not at the beginning. Anyways, this movie is a thrill ride with great acting by Shia LaBeouf and his female counterpart Michelle Monaghan, as well as Billy Bob Thorton and Michael Chiklis. I am not even a fan of Billy Bob but he delivers a superb performance. There is literally never a slow moment or long backstoring in the whole film. The plot never ceases to amaze. I usually figure out the movie about halfway or sooner. I kept thinking “what is going on?” until roughly ten or twenty minutes before the end. The special effects and chase scenes are definetley worth paying a premium at the best theaters.
