I remember a friend of mine telling me about it, meeting me at a friends place, and telling me…
DetailsHere we are at another week of kooky new form the world of film! And maybe some other stuff if I deem it worthy! In this week’s “Speculate much?” story, will Blair Witch knock Sully from the top box office spot this weekend? I don’t fucking know. Why don’t you all decide to see one…
