when just an hour of macgyver action isn’t enough, check out one of macgyver’s mini-movies. in just the first ten minutes, macgyver re-lives saving a dude’s life on a snowy cliff, only to watch him die from an assassin’s bullet. can he save his dead buddy’s kidnapped niece? how many times will he use duct tape and a swiss army knife to do it? you’ll have to watch to find out.

in the last episode, macgyver teams up with a fine, upstanding boy whose name turns out to be an acronym. what was the boy’s name, and what does it stand for?

hail to the pretend chief: top 10 fictional presidents
| written by daroff on 07/21/08 | 1 comment |
we’ve all sat back and mused about our favorite fictional characters becoming president. what if jack bauer was president, wouldn’t he kick so much ass? or what if those meat heads from predator got into politics? these are characters from all walks of fiction that took on the office with strength of character or sheer strength of fist. this is fiction’s executive branch of awesome, the 10 most kickass presidents of all pretend time.
#10 - president jack ryan (debt of honor, executive orders, the bear and the dragon)
tom clancy made a career out of turning analyst jack ryan into the world’s biggest bad ass. somehow, having taken down the russians, the i.r.a., and the drug cartels, clancy had nothing left to do but make jack president. remember how bad ass harrison ford was in patriot games and clear and present danger or how much smarter than everyone else alec baldwin was in the hunt for red october. had it not been for the affleck connection, jack ryan could have been number 1.
#9 - president charles logan (24, season 5)
one of the most exciting moments i have ever had watching tv was in season 5 of 24 when it’s revealed that the president, this bumbly, mumbly lump of a man, was behind the terrorist attacks. he wasn’t your average supervillain, though. he didn’t have some master plan. it was like he was playing bad guy just like he was playing being president. that just made him even more bad ass.

tuvok was in spaceballs?!?!?!?!?
| written by daroff on 06/03/08 | leave a comment |
it seems now that every time i watch spaceballs i recognize another random ass actor delivering a really memorable line. you may ask why i’ve watched spaceballs so many times recently, and i would just tell you to shut up. this time it totally blew me away that tim russ, the black vulcan from star trek: voyager, is the spaceball trooper combing the desert with an afro pick, who responds to dark helmet “we ain’t found shit.” when i watched this movie as a kid it was hilarious because he used a swear word.
ha ha, he said shit. oh man, i just said shit. lol, i said shit twice. three times. cussing is hilarious.
