So... SPOILER ALERT: I'm doing a 'Rekommends' video for the movie HAGGARD (written and directed by BAM MARGERA in his prime...before his life got sad)
and I stumbled across a little easter egg that I've never noticed before.......

TBT to 7/5/13: Meet the Chemist who discovered/invented LSD

 

Here's yet another Throw back Thursday Article, one again that I enjoyed stumbling upon and then subsequently sharing, and it was about the person who discovered/invented LSD and a little mini-doc behind it. If you've been following me a long time (So like maybe 15 of you might know lol) you'll know that I am a huge proponent of psychedelics. Even beyond their recreational hedonism they offer a myriad of medical applications including treatments for Alzheimer's and anxiety/depression. I also firmly argue in favor of the benefit of microdosing on the individual having had many positive inward breakthroughs due to it (plus also one of the best times I've ever had at an art gallery...the DIA) 

But yeah...... all of that to say....... Continue reading to learn more! (Or go down the rabbit hole yourself for the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom)

1. The video you see above me and

2. the video you gotta CONTINUE READING to see (muahahahahahahahaha) TBF It's at least funny

The video above though is a look at EXTRA LIFE because I always talk about it and I always try to loop people in but I figured I'd make an actual video diving into WHAT THEY DO, and WHO THEY ARE seeing as how I am asking for friends, for family and random strangers online to fork out hard earned cash when times are ALREADY TOUGH. Either way it's about 2 and a half minutes hope you ENJOY! ..........continue reading to get the other video

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.............. I actually got around to watching TRON: ARES and that's thanks to insomnia ladies and gentlemen, but I'm a silver linings guy so at least something good came of it. Obviously I'm dragging ass and doped up on coffee right now but, hey, ya gotta do what ya gotta do....

All that to say this.......... I made a REAKTS video, and if I must say, this could be the stroke of madness talking, I got some decent production value here..... CONTINUE READING to tune into my thoughts...cause uh.... well..... I got some

Well S***: Game that stole from others games not allowed to sue people for doing it too

What a freaking day and it’s only 9:27! Woke up to finding out about this lovely little bit of information and I can’t say that I’m not happy about it. Honestly, I’m surprised that corporate America didn’t win, but it turns out the Japanese legal system may have slightly more integrity than our broken a** legal system. You know for a game that in and of itself was a concept stolen from like three other games. I always find it funny when Nintendo decides to litigate on Pokémon‘s behalf, due to either something created by fans or some game that has taken their idea and improved upon it. Let’s be honest Pokémon games really haven’t tried for the last 10 years to innovate or do anything super groundbreaking. They’re incredibly buggy, incredibly rushed, and incredibly broken cash grabs these days. But personal bias aside this is a small win for Indy Devs! Continue reading for more info

Dakk Reakts to: Frankenstein (2025)

 

Welp, it's here..........HALLOWEEN. Awww man. Been hype for this day all week. Gonna have some scares and take my kiddos Trick Or Treatin' then winding the night down by watching THE CROW as god intended. But alas, before that I made sure to get some work done. I cranked out another video. So here it is..... My wife and I had a 'Day Date' yesterday because we both had the day off work so we caught the new iteration of FRANKENSTEIN starring Oscar Isaac. Wanna know my opinion on it? ....well, you know what to do!

Happy Halloween!

Breaking news: MORE KING OF THE HILL a certainty

 

Good afternoon this is Cliff Fisher from the Telling ya Hwat News network and you’re hearing it first……That’s right! As of about 15-20 mins ago (whenever this article actually posts idk *shrugs*) IGN dropped a bomb shell…. King of the Hill will be back… for more… and more on top of that to. Two seasons have been confirmed and as of 1:11pm (when they dropped the article) the word is getting out. ……

I have such a love/hate relationship with ign.com, but at least I can admit it. Also one last thing. If you care to read the source  article and didn’t spot it in the first paragraph, you can click here (made it unmissable)









Throwback Thursday: A look back on 'STRANDBEEST'

 


So.....way back in this Blog's infancy, and in my mid twenties I wrote and Article about 'STRAND BEEST' which is an inorganic life/artform powered by wind. IT IS SUPER COOL and METAL AF in my opinion. Well I was randomly surfing and thought about thaat for the first time in YEARS. Artist Theo Jansen started this project in the late 80s and it was grown and evolved over the last few decades. I remember originally finding about him randomly from a STUMBLEPUPON video I saw of one of his creations. Blew me away, the elegance of movement and the fact that it was wind powered immediately had me hooked. But yeah.... that's my pitch, decided to recycle this article because Theo is still hard at work and I would love to help tell his story to as many people as possible.

CONTINUE reading for more info! (and enjoy because.....seriously...this is SO neat and nifty)

Call me Butter I'm on a Roll-- Got a new Movie Fakts about Kenneth Branagh

 It can be very challenging for me to generate content consistently, so it's always encouraging when I get onto a hot streak of content creation. I got two videos out this week already, I got a third one currently unfolding and hopefully a few more planned to release VERYY soon. Yay!

Sorry I'm not trying to jerk myself off here, for years I've been trying to make a habit of all of this again and I'm grateful it is sticking. It's easy to get caught up in the rat race and its especially easy for a parent to be dismissive about their passion either due to time constraints or even simply being too exhausted to be motivated. Either way I take what I can get and I hope to get more baybay! 

All of that to segway into this article right here...... My recognition of Kenneth Branagh. Not much else to say without spoiling the video entirely..... so...uh get to clicking on that 'CONTINUE READING' button and find out (how ominous)

Wait.......what?!? Update: Bill and Ted 4



 

SO in a move nobody asked for on a sequel nobody really wanted it turns out that........well.......... There's a 4th BILL AND TED on the way. um..... ok? This is like the announcement of the SECOND Simpsons movie 20 years too late (which like the first simpsons movie was 20 years too late), I mean I'm not opposed to it and I don't automatically hate it but I, uh, just.....why? Obviously the answer is MONEY but there has to be something else because Keanu Reeves isn't known for doing SCHLOCK, so I wonder exactly what piqued his interests here.... but enough of my biased opinion, let's get down to business (*resists urge to sing MULAN*)

He could've made a name for himself: TATUM's gambit explains

 



Channing Tatum has always been vocal about trying to get a legit version of GAMBIT off the ground on the silver screen, he tried for years when he was in his 'hunky eye candy' phase but it never came quite to fruition. Was it a garbage script? Director issues? 20th Century fox? who really knows..... (well let's be honest SOMEBODY knows, but it def ain't me) Either way he opened up to VARIETY about it a little bit (amongst a slew of other topics. HOLY COW)

 Come checkout what he had to say!

Dakk Reakts to: The Running Man (remake) Trailer

 



Yup, not gonna lie, this movie totally slid under my radar.......the way Tom Cruise and his squad did in the second TOP GUN MOVIE (which in and of itself was a blatant rip-off of the death star trench run in A NEW HOPE...for the record I'm NOT complaining. I fucking LOVE Top Gun and Top Gun: Maverick)


so here's my reaction to the new Trailer that just dropped. Check it out!
