Ouch! It's been far too long, but it'll get better... I hope

Damn my lazy hide for not writing to this blog more. Maybe I felt like I didn't have anything to say. But that's going to change. I've decided on a little project to get into the habit of writing in this every day: movie reviews.

Now I know there are a thousand sites out there for movie reviews. But this will be a bit different. Last week, I was in my local Fry's Electronics and I saw the Martial Arts 50 Movie Mega-Pack, one of several such genre collections offered by Treeline Films. How can I resist such an incredible amassing of what promises to be really cheap & cheesy kung-fu flicks. So I snapped it up.

I've decided to watch one of these movies every day (thanks to my trusty, crusty, DVD-playin' IBM laptop). I will then, of course, put up a review here. What benefit will this bring, you may ask? Well... possibly none. Although it will get me writing every day (as every good blogger should), and it just may show that you really get what you pay for. I paid $20 for these 50 films. You do the math.

In advance, I' will say that of all the martial arts films I've ever seen, there are only 2 on the list of 50 that I've actually seen before, but I'll still talk about them. I'll post the first review tomorrow night, after viewing the film Kung Fu Arts. All I know in advance is that it apparently involves roller-skating ninjas and a super-powered mokey chasing a sacred cosmic banana...

Man, this is gonna go down hard.
