Seven Best: Car Chases

It’s May, and in the Midwest that means it’s time for the Indianapolis 500. In honor of the big race, I’ll be covering the best car chases in cinema!!

Seven Best: Die Hard Clones

I’ve been looking forward to this one for months, because they’ve done some of my all-time favorites, so let’s take a look.

Seven Best: Batmen

It’s funny to me that this list didn’t even have enough entries to make a full seven when I was younger. There’s been an explosion of Batmen in the past few decades, so let’s take a look at who’s best.

2019—What’s to Come!!

I mean, who really knows what to expect in the coming year. Maybe we’ll all get a raise, or maybe the world will be inundated with cheese. Either way, I’m making a promise to myself to be better about documenting it all.
