These Movies are Fifty Years Old This Year
With the recent news that Jaws just turned fifty, I thought I’d write about other movies that also came out in 1975.

I have been building Star Trek model kits for the past year, following a forty-year break from the hobby. I have focused on TOS sets released by AMT, now owned by Round2.

If you know anything about me, you know that I surround myself with creative inspirations. My John Carpenter Movie Poster Museum, in my basement rec-room/theatre, is a perfect example:

The Most Iconic Book Covers in the Thriller/Suspense/SF Genres
I’ve recently been re-reading some classic novels from my younger days, and I realized that some of their covers might now be considered iconic — some so notable that the movie marketing machines actually copied the book cover, further cementing the image in our minds. Here are some of those books.

Horror/Sci-Fi/Suspense Influences on TSJ Before the Age of Ten
I recently published a blog piece celebrating my fiftieth year on the planet. In the article, I wrote about the books I read as a child under the age of ten. The intention was twofold: to inform people about the books that inspired a young boy to take on the monumental goal of writing science fiction thrillers (a task which took decades to achieve), and to implore parents to always buy books for their children.

TSJ Reviews SPIDER-MAN on PS4
I recently purchased a PS4. Usually I stick to my X-box (for gaming and movie watching) but there were a few titles that were PS4 exclusives that I wanted to try. One was THE LAST OF US, which I reviewed here. The other was SPIDER-MAN, for which I have heard nothing but raves. Created by Insomniac Games, it has (as of writing this) sold almost ten million units. It was nominated for numerous awards, and won the Game Critics Awards for Best Console Game and Best Action Adventure Game. It won Best PS4 Game at Gamescon 2018, and at the 2018 Gamers’ Choice Awards it won Fan Favorite Action Game, Single Player Gaming Experience, and Fan Favorite Character of the Year (Peter Parker).

Sometimes less is more, and I am aiming to keep this short and sweet, hopefully to have greater impact on those who might stumble across it. My wish is that it might motivate people to spend two hours at the theaters this weekend.
