RKS Films: “Twas The Night”: Has Santa Been Killed?

Locally here in Toronto on a particular channel are a continuous slew of Harlequin Films celebrating Christmas. Everything is perfect. True love blossoms at the end. For some it may be so cute. For lovers of serious cinema it may be flotsam. “Twas the Night” is no sickly-sweet Christmas film. But does it have theContinue reading “RKS Films: “Twas The Night”: Has Santa Been Killed?”

RKS Film: “Are You Happy Now”

On occasion a film is not so easily described. I might fall short by calling it a romantic comedy as amongst all the characters romance has failed. Given the high divorce rate in North America added to couples still married and living in misery humans never seem to renounce romance completely. The film makes itContinue reading “RKS Film: “Are You Happy Now””

“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 115 Montreal Olympic Riots

Droolpoop’s police force stormed onto the McSwill University grounds trashing the exhibits and clubbing both mutants and visitors. It so happened a Montreal television crew was there doing a story on the exhibit and captured the vicious police assault. Droolpoop had miscalculated, not like he continually did with his Olympic budgets but with his reputation.Continue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 115 Montreal Olympic Riots”

RKS Wine: Pinotage Can Be a Risky Choice

One hears often that Pinot Noir is a “heartbreak grape” due to its thin skin making it more susceptible to rot and frost. Canada’s Baco Noir in my experience might deserve the moniker of a heartbreak grape because much of it is of poor quality. Pinotage from South Africa can also be dicey. I haveContinue reading “RKS Wine: Pinotage Can Be a Risky Choice”

“Mutantism on the March” : Chapter 114: The Montreal 1976 Olympics Start

On Earth Montenez was in a lonely state as some of his closest friends and his brother Squid had left for Zortixia several weeks ago in their mission to bring down Redbeard the evil ruler of Zorollia. His sagging spirits were boosted after being contacted by Squid who informed him of the downfall of RedbeardContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” : Chapter 114: The Montreal 1976 Olympics Start”

Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog is Back :My First Vacation!

I have travelled the world helping to promote the Disney film “Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”, receiving a Nobel Peace Prize and meeting the Pope and all sorts of politicos. I think Dylan the Westie and I have peed and pooped all over the world. But at times it is a blur and it isContinue reading “Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog is Back :My First Vacation!”

RKS Wines: Wines from Washington You Say?

There are countless states in the United States that produce wine but what we are flooded with here in Ontario is mostly Californian. Pity. The Washington I am discussing is not the home of the January 6th coup attempt. That was Washington in the District of Columbia. This is Washington State south of British ColumbiaContinue reading “RKS Wines: Wines from Washington You Say?”
