About us

COLIN is an American. A Hoosier. A photographer. A parody rapper. He has seen Zoolander at least 57 times and is convinced Rocky IV ended the Cold War. He has had whole conversations in Supertrooper quotes and one day plans to write an entire screenplay of classic lines recycled from his favorite movies. There is at least an 80% chance he is wearing his orange LeBron James jersey right now.

ALEX can be seen mackin' hoes and smackin' foes on a regular basis. The phrase pimpin' ain't easy does not apply to him. When he's not pimpin' it, he can be seen in your neighborhood multiplex. Don't invite him to watch your favorite sports movie, feel-good movie, or anything associated with Michael Bay because he will not participate. A Penn State grad, but a bigger Hoosier fan than you. There's at least a 59% chance he once sported a pony tail.

The H.M.S. ABC Project: L

(Quick notice: I'm mailing today's post in. I've got 25 minutes tops to crank this baby out. Sorry. You'll survive.)

How easy would it be for me to pick Lord Of The Rings here? Pretty easy. But does Return Of The King get its own post in six days when we cover "R" movies? I don't know. We never really discussed the semantics of this project that in depth. But anyways, as much as I was obsessed with good 'ol LOTR when they came out, I haven't really had the slightest desire to pop any of them in and kiss 3-4 hours away in at least the last 3-4 years. And that has to count for something here, doesn't it?

Yet, a movie I always come back to, and one that happens to be way better date movie than any Kate Hudson movie not named Almost Famous, is this one.

 Before he became Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker dyed his hair purple and appeared in this movie.

So...yeah. Just trust me on this one, you won't regret it. And if nothing else, you'll get to enjoy the most awkward shower scene in movie history that doesn't involve Kevin Spacey. Cheers!

If you were a house, this is where you would want to be built. On rock...facing the sea...listening,

Colin
