This weekend The Dude on the Right went to see a couple of movies. One was a current film called “Mr. Woodcock,” even though it isn’t that current since its been advertised for almost a year now. The Dude knows that when a movie takes that long to get released there are problems, and he thinks he knows how he would have fixed it. He also saw an Indie film called “Once,” and there isn’t anything that was needed to fix this one. Nope, he gives “Once” 5 stars out of 5. It’s one of the best love stories/musicals he thinks he has ever seen. And, oh yea, he says “Once“ got robbed by getting an “R” rating for using the F-bomb.

What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! Britney’s Mom-Ass, “Shoot ‘Em Up” Talk, and Smelly Coffee.
For this podcast episode of “Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!” Stu Gotz is trying to deal with his allergies, and his weekend was sort of boring except he is amazed at the ability of his son to recognize various smells. The Dude on the Right saw “Shoot ‘Em Up,” but for the most part the boys talk about the MTV Video Music Awards that had Britney Spears not losing her mom-ass yet, and Sarah Silverman doing stand-up that would have went over great in a club, just not so much at the award show. At least The Dude didn’t have to talk much about watching the Chicago Bears and the Chicago Cubs both lose.
What’s New? A Movie Review of “Shoot ‘Em Up.”
For this movie review of “Shoot ‘Em Up,” The Dude on the Right thinks the movie lives up to the title, and then some. He also thinks Neo’s shooting skills in “The Matrix” pale in comparison to those of Smith in this movie. “Shoot ‘Em Up” also gives new meaning to the phrase “It’s raining men” and shows that a carrot can actually cause you to lose your eyesight.
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! Stu is Leaking at Both Ends and The Dude Walks 10 Miles.
Labor Day caused an extended weekend so Stu Gotz and The Dude on the Right have extra to say for their “Weekend Wrap-Up” podcast. Stu was leaking, and so was his basement, causing him a strange weekend. The normalcy ensued by giving his kids a good sugar buzz at a Chicago Cubs game. The Dude tried to exercise by walking ten miles over the weekend, cleaned the dude-pad, and also finished “The Movie Theater” building on their Second Life property. He also saw some movies, including the box-office winner “Halloween.“
There’s more, so go ahead and listen.
Entertainment Ave! has a Movie Theater in Second Life.

My
Labor Day Weekend has been fun-filled, and I’ll talk with Stu Gotz about it
tomorrow for our “Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!” podcast, but one of the
things I did accomplish was actually build something in the Internet realm of
Second Life. Our staff
member, The Dude on the Left, says Second Life is dead, but Entertainment Ave!
has some virtual property, and a sort of vision for it, so with property in
hand, and limited building skills, our first building to be functional is
“The Movie Theater.”
As I slowly work in building our little virtual community,
“The Movie Theater”
seemed like the easiest to begin with, allowing virtual people to view, on our
virtual big screen, our latest episode of “Stu
& The Dude Reviewin’ the Movies for You!” as well as marquees directing
people to our Interneted posted reviews.
If
you’re not a Second Lifer, I suppose this blog doesn’t mean much to you,
probably just wondering “What the hell is ‘Second
Life’ and why does The Dude on the Left think it’s dead?” But Entertainment
Ave! now has a virtual building, and it works, and although it doesn’t show
movies, only reviews, we still call it “The
Movie Theater.” If you are a Second Lifer, and you want to chill for about
five minutes, head to our
Movie Theater,
relax in a seat, and see why Stu Gotz pissed me off while reviewing "Blades of
Glory."
That’s it for this one!
I’m The Dude on the Right!! L8R!!!
What’s New? A Movie Review of “Halloween.”
For this movie review of “Halloween,” The Dude on the Right thinks Rob Zombie did a great job with a movie in line with the horror genre of the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, complete with lots of screaming and topless girls, but thinks Zombie missed the boat by not having a full-blown prequel truly detailing the perfect storm of abuse that creates the monster that is Michael Myers.
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! “Mr. Bean’s Holiday,” Stu Saw “Superbad,” & The Dude Left His Pad.
For this podcast of the latest episode of “Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!”, The Dude on the Right still marvels at how much they fit in with so little time. Sometimes The Dude thinks they should have their own radio show to be able to elaborate more, but for now they talk of “Mr. Bean’s Holiday,” “Superbad,” door etiquette, the beauty of Fry’s, Michael Jackson’s parenting skills, cutting grass, Tivos, running down people with a bike, going to Super Target, TV shows coming back in the fall, and they do all of this talking in under 20 minutes.
What’s New? A Movie Review of “Mr. Bean’s Holiday.”
For this movie review of “Mr. Bean’s Holiday,” The Dude on the Right figures he had to sit through a little over an hour of Mr. Bean just being goofy and filming his travels on his trusty video camera. But it was at that little over an hour mark that all of that goofiness and videotaping payed off and really made The Dude laugh. Funny, though, because the kids in the theater didn’t seem to understand why the adults were now laughing.
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! Illegal Aliens, RVing, “Superbad,” and a Cubs Game.
For this podcast of “Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!“ Stu Gotz and The Dude on the Right give their take on the deportation of Elvira Arellano, how their grandparents learned to speak English, and where is the Dad? Stu also went on an overnight RV trip with the family, The Dude saw “Superbad,” and they both went to a Chicago Cubs game where they can be seen on TV. What a weekend!
What’s New? A Movie Review of “Superbad.”
For this movie review of “Superbad” The Dude on the Right thinks that Judd Apatow has found the perfect formula for adult comedies. Almost. The Dude didn’t really like all of the cop stuff in the movie, and the film brought back traumatic high school memories which he didn’t really want to re-live, but now that The Dude is older, they make him laugh. The Dude just wishes he would have told, well, someone, that he liked her. At least the “Superbad” dudes probably got their girls. The Dude had to wait a little while.
