Elaine Benes-Kennedy, Sr.

Bare with me folks, we're celebrating lots of anniversaries over the next several weeks. Why not start with the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy?


Ask not what your Blog can do for you, but what you can do for your Blog. Seriously, 12 comments in a Walk thread? Let's see if this thread can crack ten!

Last week I asked you which video game system you were more likely to purchase, and you answered Playstation 4.



  • Box Office News: Raw is still Thor
  • Trailer Time: Check out new trailers for Muppets Most Wanted, A Haunted House 2 and more!
  • In Theaters This Week: Delivery Man and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

    And that brings us to this week's poll.

    MTV's My Super Sweet 16: Montreal

    Welcome to the Time Honored Tradition that is the Friday Film Fiesta! This week, we are celebrating... ugh... the 16th Anniversary of the Montreal Screwjob.


    Good grief, aren't we over this thing finally? Everybody else seems to be. But not here at the Fiesta! We'd rather make lame, obscure, out of date references than try to be hip to the latest pop culture trends! #yoloswag420jesustwerking

  • Marvel and Netflix combine to bring us four live action series
