By firelight we drew on cave walls
Told stories in primitive scrawls
To Renaissance, high
Art Mirrored the eye
Now pixels illuminate brawls

The Vincentennial
We started our centennial tribute to Vincent Price on May 17, 2011, here. This monster marathon was our part in the annual Countdown to Halloween. It crawled along until it breathed its last on March 17, 2012.

CGI/mo-cap brawls are so blah!
Inorganic effects fail to awe
Films had more oomph and vim
When stuntmen risked life and limb
Pixel puppets now rule, wah-wah-wahhh...
At end of all films ran a scrawl
"No fauna at all did we maul"
Now nothing is real
And therefore we feel
That nothing filmed matters at all
