The EDS Commercial about Cat-herders.
As far as commercials go, this is a 10/10!
Quite Possibly the Best Commercial Ever Made

READERSHIP GOING THROUGH ROOF
That's right, the bcBlog is getting more and more readers as the days roll on. Why is this, you might ask? The reason is simple, this is the greatest blog on the face of the earth. Great movie reviews, great movie previews, and great insight in to the mind of Ben Crum. Enjoy.

FIREWALL
One would think that every bad guy on the face of the earth would know by now to leave Harrison Ford alone. He can best endless numbers of Nazis, make all the terrorists get off his plane (and then land it) and he has the fastest ship in the galaxy. Well, apparently the doctor from Master and Commander didn't get the memo. Firewall, in a word, looks superawesomefantasticbad-to-the-bone. Good acting, good story, good dialog... everything you would expect from a movie that Harrison Ford feels is worth his time. The only thing I want to know is this. Obviously Ford still has the energy to bust through windows and take out bad guys (with coffee pots), so where the heck is Indiana Jones IV?
Firewall - Harrison Ford - 8/10 - Great suspense thriller, action flick.

Dirty
Every once in a while I miss a good movie. Inevitably three or four years later someone says, "hey Ben, remember that part in ... " and I've gotta say, "um, no, never saw it!". Well, if you're like me then I've got good news for you. Hollywood, it seems, is beginning to release the same movie, a few years later so that you can go watch it again (for the first time). Dirty is one of those films. Anyone ever heard of Training Day? It's not like they took some obscure Japanese movie and made The Ring, no, they took a really popular movie and did the same thing (hey, that rhymes - editor). I think this might be a cool movie. But why not just watch Training Day again? I'm not saying that the genre of crooked cops isn't legit, I'm saying that the way this one is shot, the way the characters are portrayed, the way the trailer is put together make me think that this is simply a clone with a new name.
I'll give this one 3 1/2 stars. Not worth my time and money (why pay $10 when I can rent it for three?)

Crazy Uncle George
All of us Crums have heard the stories about good ol' "Crazy Uncle George", but for those of you non-Crums, let me introduce you to our hot-tempered uncle. Uncle George lived in Saratoga and was a "chef" of sorts (also known as a top-secret undercover spy, one of the original members of the real G.I.Joes as I recall). Anyhow, he is most famous for his hot-tempered invention of potato-chips (or Saratoga Chips as he called them). Read the account here
