Destiny Has Told Me to Share This Animated History of Jason
So, weird coincidence. I never watched any of the classic horror films from the 1980s while I was growing up. We just didn’t watch those kinds of movies in my family. So I’ve never seen a single Friday the 13th movie. Not even the modern reboots. I don’t particularly care about Jason.
But I’ve been randomly watching some Let’s Play videos of the latest Friday the 13th video game, which prompted me, just the other day, to read a big wikipedia entry on the life and times of Jason, just out of pure wiki-curiosity. We’ve all been there.
Then I discovered this brand new animated history of Jason that literally just came out, and is only the second video from a new YouTube creator!
This is kismet. I had no idea this video was coming from Tell It Animated. And my wiki-wormhole on Jason was just as random. But hey, when the Internet is telling me to share a cool animated YouTube video with you, you’re damn right I’m going to share it!

6 Things I Want From Star Wars Episode IX
Star War: The Last Jedi is now in our rearview mirror and the Han Solo stand alone film is on its way in only a few short months. This makes it the perfect time to speculate about what I want to see in the next main chapter of the Star Wars saga! How will the new trilogy come to an end? What about Snoke?!
No clue on what the name could possibly even be
I liked The Last Jedi well enough, and I’ve come to like it even more once I started to understand parts of it better. I still like all the new characters and I look forward to whatever else might happen. As some people have pointed out, The Last Jedi didn’t really leave any major cliffhangers that need to be resolved. Both sides of the war are pretty much where they were when the movie started and all characters are accounted for. So story wise, I’m not sure what’s going to happen.
But you’re gosh darn right I have some ideas! Join me after the jump for six things I want to see in Star Wars: Episode IX! And feel free to share your own hopes, dreams and fears in the comments.
One More Awesome New Black Panther Trailer!
The Black Panther movie is about a month away, so how about a new trailer? It’s not a full trailer, just a TV spot that debuted last night. But it sure is action-packed!
It says tickets are on sale now. But I never worry. None of the theaters I go to sell out. I should be fine!

My 6 Most Anticipated Movies of 2018
I love movies. I love all storytelling, really, but I especially enjoy going out to the movies. It’s a fun event, whether alone or with friends. Last year, my New Year’s Resolution was to go see more movies in the theater. I pulled off that plan with flying colors, and the universe rewarded me with that $10 a month MoviePass deal! Anybody else taking advantage of that? It may all come crashing down sooner rather than later, but for now, I’m just gonna keep heading to the theater over and over again!
2018 promises to be a pretty cool year for movies. There are a lot on my list that I still need to see from 2017, but I want to look ahead with rose-colored glasses at the fun year I”m going to have at the cinema! It’s going to be so much fun, I had to double-up on some of my answers here!
Join me after the jump for the movies I am most looking forward to in the year ahead! And please feel free to share some of your own in the comments!
Movie Trailer Round-Up!
Between vacations and holidays over the past month, I’ve been sitting on a couple movie trailers waiting for a day when I didn’t have anything better to post. So here they are!
First up is Ocean’s 8, which, I dunno…looks kinda dumb.
I thought it was going to be more than just a gender-swapped Ocean’s 11 remake. And if you’re just going to remake Ocean’s 11, but with women, why stop at 8? They couldn’t find three other women to join up?
Then there’s Annihilation, which looks all manner of freaky deaky.
Yeah, I might go see that one, just to see what he heck is going on!
