Going to the Movies in Style: The Plaza Cinema Cafe

Last updated on: July 6, 2009 at 6:17 am By DeWayne Hamby

LeAnn and I met up with some friends Friday night for some excellent Mexican food at Cantina Laredo followed by a trip to Orlando’s brand new Plaza Cinema Cafe in downtown. I have to say all five of us were blown away by this theater. Outside, someone had brought in old gangster-type cars to go along with the theme of Public Enemies, a film that was premiering. In fact, anyone wearing a gangster or early 20th century Chicago-style outfit got... Read more

At the Beach

Last updated on: July 3, 2009 at 2:30 pm By DeWayne Hamby

I’m not entirely sure if this will update or not but it will be cool if it does (it didn’t). LeAnn and I decided we don’t visit the beach nearly as often as we’d like so we taking our day off and lounging by the Atlantic Ocean. It’s amazing to consider how many other people are on the other side of this sea. You’ll see our setup on the right. We really liked our umbrella. Then a family of four... Read more

The Thrill Is Gone: Michael Jackson

Last updated on: June 26, 2009 at 6:05 am By DeWayne Hamby

It would be inappropriate to miss out on the opportunity to pause for a moment and remember Michael Jackson. After thousands of articles and interviews in my journalistic career, a large chunk of which are music-related, I remember the very first article I did for a publication. In Seventh Grade, I submitted a review for the “Beat It” video to our McCleskey middle school newspaper, which was so well-received the sponsor asked me to follow it with “Thriller.” I had...

Metal Men: My ‘Transformers 2’ Review

Last updated on: June 25, 2009 at 1:02 pm By DeWayne Hamby

For $10, you can go to a store and buy a game like Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots; or you can buy a ticket to Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, a movie that throws that same fighting robots concept into a blender along with a couple-hundred million dollars and change. What comes out feels like the cinematic equivalent of a monster-truck rally. Revenge, one of the most buzzed about films of the summer, is the sequel to the 2007 release,... Read more

Star Trek Goes Boldy: A Movie Review

Last updated on: May 7, 2009 at 5:06 pm By DeWayne Hamby

“I dare you to do better.” When a young, pre-captain James Kirk hears this plea from a decorated Starfleet officer in the new J.J. Abrams revamp of Star Trek, something triggers, prompting him to give up a soulless existence and step into his destiny. Moviegoers, already familiar with the mythology of the legendary captain, have the vantage point of knowing what his incredible journey will entail, but seeing that choice played out on screen is truly captivating. The entire film, which... Read more

At World’s End: A Review of ‘Knowing’

Last updated on: April 28, 2009 at 8:38 pm By DeWayne Hamby

If the world was ending, where would your faith lie? That’s a question John Koestler (Nicolas Cage) wrestles with in the science fiction thriller Knowing. When his son becomes the recipient of a page of a strangely scrawled numbers unearthed from a time capsule, Koestler, an astrophysics professor (naturally), begins to decode what he believes is a blueprint for tragedies. Koestler has already experienced tragedy. He masks the sorrow of his late wife’s death with alcohol and has long since... Read more

Friends are Facebook Friends Forever…..maybe not

Last updated on: April 14, 2009 at 9:44 pm By DeWayne Hamby

I had several Facebook friend adds today and, knowing already what my current amount of friends was, mentally added it up. Just so you know, I don’t think any certain number of Facebook friends makes anyone better than anyone else or is any kind of status symbol. I do think it’s cool to have a list of so many folks you’ve come in contact with through the years or made contact recently. Plus I tell my wife so she can... Read more

Watchmen Movie Review

Last updated on: March 5, 2009 at 8:20 pm By DeWayne Hamby

Have you ever opened a beautifully wrapped Christmas present only to discover the gift was not yours but someone else’s? This misfire even happens with correctly assigned gifts. Two years ago, after opening the Batman play set, my nephew turned to me and said “I told you—I don’t like superheroes.” My suspicion is that most moviegoers will feel the same way well into the third hour of Watchmen, opening Friday. The movie, centered on the classic graphic novel from 1986... Read more
