American History X (1998) This is one of my favorite movies of all time, partly because the acting is superb, but mostly because it’s all-too-easy to see the events unfolding in this movie happening. The subject of race is front and center in this movie, and nothing about it is easy or even palatable to [...]

Well, it’s glorious Monday (blech) and time for a media-type review. I thought I’d talk about another of my guilty pleasures… Family Guy.
