newer additions towards the bottom


The Internet Movie Database - You will never need to go to another movie site after this one. THE most thorough collection of films, stars, reviews, and their links -- ever. And their new redesign kicks ass.

The War Against Silence - glenn mcdonald's music review site is probably one of the most well-written and musically knowledgeable (not to mention eclectic) hotspots on the web. The Stanley Kaufmann of the music world.

Nizkor: A Holocaust Remembrance - Not only an extensive archive of Holocaust material, but also a fine resource in the crusade against Holocaust denial.

Scott Renshaw's Screening Room - Of all the regulars who post to rec.arts.movies.reviews, Scott Renshaw is the only one who is consistently intelligent, literate, prolific, and eloquent. (And while James Berardinelli is all of those and a thumbs up from Roger Ebert, I don't always agree with his analyses.)

Troops - "No... Yeah, I understand... I got a wife and kids too, but ya don't see me out here stealing Imperial droids now, do ya?"

Salon Magazine - Sharp, intelligent reporting, scathing movie reviews, and Camille Paglia.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Papers Project at Stanford - King's essays, sermons, and correspondence.

The Blair Witch Project - Like they're really going to put up a sign in the woods that says, "Don't touch the rocks or the stickmen". And oh, south is THAT way.

Ontario Consultants on Religious Tolerance - An unbiased and refreshingly intelligent exploration of every religious belief system you can think of. And then some.

The Joe Cartoon Co. - Sick, twisted Flash animations. He's also got some material on Atom Films.

SiSSYFiGHT 2000 - Part chat, part rock-paper-scissors, part poker, part Social Darwinism in practice. All juvenile. If you want to take me on sometime -- or maybe even team up -- my girl's name is Shrew. Be sure to also check out the SiSSYFiGHTNews fan site.

Ad Critic - I could sit and watch those Gap commercials for hours. And I do. Sometimes.
