Posted on Wednesday, May 16 th, 2012 at 9:15 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: Why I Haven’t Updated My Blog in Two Days
Yeah, I know what you’re thinking … nothing, because likely no one is reading this, but I know what that made up guy that I made up to pretend someone reads my blog is thinking; “Oh my gosh, Double D, it’s been two days with no updates! You forgot this blog! You’re never going to update it ever again, are you? Are you?” Don’t worry. I’m still going to update this thing regularly. The problem I’ve been having hasn’t been a lack of motivation or even a lack of desire. It’...

Posted on Sunday, May 13 th, 2012 at 12:14 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: A Lame Acrostic Poem for Mother’s Day
Well, it’s mother’s day, a time to remind the one who pushed us out into this world that we love her. By the way, I love you Mom! Thanks for giving birth to me and then raising me. I know it wasn’t easy. Anyways, to celebrate the love of Mom’s everywhere, I wrote this lame acrostic poem. Enjoy! M is for mold, the one that I follow O is for open, but never hollow T is for tender, showing kindness to us H is for handful, I know that I was E is for everyday you loved me with care R is for r...

Posted on Saturday, May 12 th, 2012 at 4:27 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: Updates
First off, here’s an update on my life and my upcoming mission trip. Yeah, I know you probably don’t care and no one likes to hear about someone else’s pet cause, but I don’t care. This is my blog, so it’s also my soap-box. If you don’t like it, well that’s mildly upsetting. Anyway, first off, there’s a slight change in plans, due to a lack of interest in the original program. I’ll still be doing the same thing, but the dates have changed. I’ll no longer be going from June 17...

Now for the next entry in my top 25, #21: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Here we go again with another Lord of the Rings movie and then in a few more posts we’ll get yet another one. I’m going to be talking about Lord of the Rings for a while, but hey, I don’t mind since I love these movies! I’ve got quite an attachment to this one especially since I still remember seeing it in theatres when I was 13 and how excited I was. I don’t think I had ever seen something so...

Posted on Thursday, May 10 th, 2012 at 12:02 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: The Cranberries at the Sound Academy in Toronto, Canada 05/09/2012
Well, the reason I didn’t update my blog yesterday was because I was in Toronto for a concert, so I figured I’d right a blog about it. It was a Cranberries concert. I actually talked a little about The Cranberries on GCRN’s music spotlight where I counted down my top ten bands of the 90’s. Check it out here. I just recently got into The Cranberries and I really dig their music so I was really excited to see them live. Of course, The Cranberries basically took what Cocteau Twins did and ...

Oh boy, what the hell can I possibly say about The Avengers that won’t already have been uttered by bright-faced fanboys as they make their way through the exit line at the local cinema? This is the big one. Well, sort of. 2012 will be notable in years to come as a year full of big ones. It’s not only host to the first ever major comic book crossover adaptation, but we’ll soon be witness to the final chapter in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy, the extremely long-awaited Alien se...

Posted on Monday, May 07 th, 2012 at 8:01 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: Movie Top 25: #22 – Tokyo Godfathers
Here’s the next movie on my top 25, #22 – Tokyo Godfathers. This is the first of two anime films on the list (you’ll find out what the other one is much later) and stands here to basically represent my love of Satoshi Kon, may he rest in peace. The man was a legend and his legacy will live on long after his death through people like me who remember his works as the little pieces of genius that they are. I have to admit Millennium Actress was pretty damn close to making this list too, ...

Posted on Sunday, May 06 th, 2012 at 7:29 pm by Double DDouble D’s Daily Dose: 10 Things that Would Make the Star Wars Prequels Awesome
While digging around on Friday for Star Wars material on my computer I found this ancient blog I wrote in 2010 about the Star Wars prequels. Before I knew it, I found myself re-reading it, editing it and now I’m re-publishing it here, all because I still stand by everything I said back then. So, here it is. Enjoy! To preface this post, I don’t hate the Star Wars Prequels. They’re entertaining, light popcorn fun, but they DO NOT hold up to the classic originals. So, in this post...
