Boiler Room. Why the name? To be honest, I don't know, it's never explained, and I'm not about to make any assumptions.

The movie is basically a movie producers wet dream. Every generation there's an attempt to cash in on...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Haven't really bought anything new lately...yeah, maybe it's 'cause I'm broke, but anyway, I've been going through the olde catalogue of CD's and listening to my old fingerprinted CD's although I haven't had as much time as I'd like what with work and...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Rapid Fire was the movie that should've made Brandon Lee a household name, at least that was the theory. Released after Showdown in Little Tokyo in which Brandon co-starred with that lovable oaf of an action-hero Dolph Lundgren, Rapid Fire was...

Secret Agent Seeks Secret Sauce

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Hmmm, so, you wanna know about McDonalds eh? I’ll tell you, even secret agents need to eat, and when they’re in a hurry, McDonalds is where they head to. It’s not a matter of their magnificent tasting food [sarcasm abounds], it’s simply a matter of...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Well, let me take a crack at this, not that my opinion is any more or any less valid than anyone elses, I just thought I'd give this a try:

Thu, 11 May 2000 02:43:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Esthero...pop duo, airy and seductive female vocals and a mopey male counter-part who is the producer/programmer. Does that sound familiar? With so many bands using this combination it’s almost a shame that half of them don’t get any airplay and some...

Cocteau Twins: No Jean Cocteau, no twins? What the!?

Wed, 10 May 2000 18:06:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - The Cocteau Twins. *sigh*. What can I say that hasn’t been said? Nothing I guess, but it’s better to die trying eh?

The ‘80’s...yeah, you remember, Naked Eyes, Kajagoogoo, Dexy’s Midnight Runners. Certainly there was an abundance of...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Two words, contemporary jazz. Yeah, yeah, I know, for some it makes no sense, to others it just makes them wretch. I don’t particularly care for it either, other than this album the next nearest thing to contemporary jazz that I like is Acoustic...

Outback is definitely Up front

Sat, 6 May 2000 02:43:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - MMmmm...red meat. That’s the only reason you should go to the Outback Steakhouse. Not necessarily out back, but more down the street, this is definitely a bang for the buck kind of place.

The Outback Steakhouse in Hawaii opened up a couple...

Sat, 6 May 2000 01:32:51 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - TNN home of ECW. What is ECW you ask? Well, it’s the Extreme Championship Wrestling organization run by Paul Heyman. Not going too far into depth about it, it's one of the most graphic and violent of the three televised wrestling shows. The other two...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - I saw the ads for this flick early last year, it was really vague and didn't say much about the movie. They had two people walking down a pier talking about how intriguing and beguiling the movie was, the controversy, etc. Really great ad...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Well, Angelina Jolie...can't go wrong there right? Hah, little did you know. Unfortunately Jolie doesn't wear any of her trampy/vampy outfits that she wore in Hackers.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author wantico - Budweiser is billed as the "king of beers". Why? I have no idea, maybe someone can enlighten me, but I doubt it. This is the my story of what I consider to be one of the most poor excuses for beer, this is the story of Budweiser.
