Finding My Mind

I’ve recently realized that I have a blog with some pretty good shit on it that I have systematically neglected for far too long. Yes, the Lost Posts from when I had private hosting are forever gone, and they do fill a page or so, but it shames me to both want to say so [...]

The 90s Disease and The Global Star Wars on Terror

This is the first of two editorials tangential to political things including 9/11, the Global War on Terror, and how much of a cunt George Lucas is.  I have written this particular piece while in a rather spirited mood.  There is offensive content here and its payload has been calibrated to maximize its potential. I [...]

Happy Anniversary, or perhaps more appropriately, This Was A Triumph

Doesn’t seem that long ago that I started this project.  I suppose it isn’t in the grand scheme of things, but on August 15, 2007, The Chaos Fold was born.  By some minor miracle I’ve managed to accrue 103 published posts, and while I’ve dropped off the blogosphere a couple of times, I’ve more or [...]

Dream Casts (no pun intended)

All this recent hoopla in my head over the convergence of film and gaming, my two most beloved things, has led me to draw up a few ideal casting choices for some upcoming games-to-movies, namely BioShock and Metal Gear Solid, which has the added benefit of being 90% movie anyway. Bioshock: Protagonist Jack: You want [...]

Peter Travers – The Anti-Ebert

As a lifelong fan of film and game alike, I’ve been increasingly frustrated in the seeming critical divide between these two art forms.  Roger Ebert, famously has stated that games can never be art, my open letter to him drew a lot of attention, and has yet to yield a response from anyone at the [...]

REVIEW – Iron Man

Iron Man lights a fire underneath its competitors in the increasingly-stale summer-superhero genre. Robert Downey Jr. is no tortured Bruce Wayne, no awkward Peter Parker, he’s goddamn Iron Man, in the suit and out.

Heath Ledger 1979-2008

I woke up this morning to talk with a friend about a big project I’m going to be contributing to, when my dad tells me the news. Heath Ledger died. For someone normally full of grandiose terms I’m at a loss.  I’ve always thought that Heath Ledger was to be one of the great talents [...]

Ye gone smell-blind, honey!

I recently had the pleasure of seeing John C. Reilly’s defining role as the legendary (fake) Dewey Cox in “Walk Hard”. It sure isn’t the smartest parody around, but it is smarter than it gets credit for.  A lot of the jokes are clear over the heads of their audience.  Those who know me will [...]

The sane may never live, but the crazy never die.

I’ve been thinking a lot about a recent, and rather unfortunate trend. More and more, the disturbed and alienated youth of my generation are deciding that its better to die spectacularly than live insignificantly. From extravagant overdoses to the shitheads who go nuts with a gun, more and more of my generation is being lost [...]

Living with Transparent Sluts, or how I fell in love with Ellen Page

Watching Letterman last night I saw the beautiful young actress Ellen Page, in what is possibly the most brilliant interview ever. She spoke at length about her new home, which is a former whorehouse.  She spoke about her “whorish” things going missing.  She spoke about Transparent Sluts. Ellen, I know we just met and all, [...]
