Packy Smith – Submissions for the BioWare Explorers Wanted Contest – Mass Effect Andromeda Howdy to all Bioware employers and fellow blog readers alike! Today I am blogging for an exceptionally important reason, and I couldn’t be more excited to share with you what I am hoping to accomplish. However, I am not frog and you are not a bunny, so before we jump too far ahead of ourselves, let’s slow our roll just a touch to give me a brief opportunity to explain myself. Recently, video game developer BioWare,…

Tougher Than It Is…
Some People Like To Make Life A Little Tougher Than It Is… Over the past few weeks I’ve hit a crossroads of sorts, especially in reference to this blog. I themed out a few months worth of content in May and June, and for the most part I stuck to my guns and really hammered out a lot of great posts about cheesy b-movies, independent musicians & filmmakers, video games, movies & recording artists you should check out, and a bunch of other stuff. Since then, I’ve kind of been at…
Plan For June: Weekly Themes! Tons of Fun! #payitforward
After a Long Month of Reviewing Cheesy Low-Budget Movies in May, I’m Going to Switch Gears in June and Pay It Forward! Taking on the personal challenge of reviewing movies, offering commentary, and finally writing an entire film script for my month long tribute to Full Moon Features was a fun, rewarding, and exhausting exercise (which you can read all about by clicking HERE). It was hard to find the time to squeeze the time in to watch all of those movies (I did 18 total film reviews), and write,…

Confessions of a VHS Rental Junkie @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand
Hello, my name is Packy and I am a recovering VHS rental junkie, and also Head Llama on this blog. This is my story: If you were born after 1997, there’s a good chance that you probably haven’t ever watched a movie on VHS. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, it just means that you weren’t around for the home video revolution. You see, VHS tapes were the fast widely accepted form of video playback ever. You could buy just about anything on VHS, from your favorite big screen movies to…

Happy Llamaversary! Nerfed Llamas turns 1! #Congrats #Anniversary
Dear friends, followers, and unfortunate souls that accidentally clicked a link to this blog by mistake but for some odd reason stuck around anyway- it is with a wink and a smile (and pride!) that I announce: this blog has existed for 1 whole year at this point. YAY! It’s been a crazy 12 months filled with ups and downs, jokes and somber truths, web comics and original short stories, and a whole host of other stuff that didn’t quite catch on. It all started on April 2nd 2015 with the…
Watching The Wheels #HappyMonday #JohnLennon
All apologies: Again, I’m writing a post to motivate myself to keep moving forward. For frequent readers, I apologize if this is bordering on petulant, but clearly I’m working through some shit, so bear with me a bit longer. I need my mental Hanz and Franz to pump (clap) me up! My plate is not getting any smaller: I seemingly keep piling stuff on my shoulders as if my middle name were Atlas. There’s family stuff, house repairs, work, pet care, the blog, and I’ve been trying desperately to finish a…
My Only Explanation for Super Tuesday – Person vs. People #Election2016
Image submitted without comment as it speaks for itself: Congrats America. I hope you enjoy making America “great” again.
If You Only Watch One Video Today… #MakeDonaldDrumpfAgain
Super Tuesday is tomorrow. A time in which a hefty chunk of the states in the USA will vote for their favorite Republican or Democrat candidate for president in state level primary elections. This is likely the end of the road for most of the candidates involved, and will offer a clear path to being the nominee for the most winning Republican and Democrat candidate. This is our last opportunity to draw a line in the sand and stop somebody who is undeserving and/or not qualified to hold the highest…
