Blair Witch Godzilla

If you could take the idea of a monster attacking New York all presented as if it were all shot from someone's cellphone camera, this apparently would be it.

I have only seen parts of the Blair Witch project. My wife wouldn't watch it and some clips I saw scared the crap out of me. You were always straining to catch a glimpse of the "monster" which was part of the element of fear and surprise that made it so intense. I am guessing that that is ia big part of this films allure.

Look for it in theaters Jan 18.

Here is a special sneak peak.

Only six games into the season, the Syracuse Raging Bullz (formerly known as the Syracuse Bullies) have folded. Some of the interesting comments posted in the Post Standard website mention the complete lack of advertising. I have to say I agree completely. That, and the original controversy about the name probably lead to the untimely demise.

Perhaps a name that was relevant to Syracuse? A logo that was not hideous? Maybe a TV spot or an ad in the Post Standard? I suspect there was a serious lack of vision and budget.

At least we have SU Basketball to keep the winter interesting.

Here is the account from the Post Standard.

Syracuse Bullz call it quits

The Syracuse Bullz basketball team's run in Syracuse lasted six games.

That's how many contests the American Basketball Association franchise played before the league confirmed it was suspending operations on Wednesday.

ABA chairman Joe Newman said he would have an official announcement Thursday, along with information about a local ownership group that's interested in putting another ABA team here.

Newman blamed the failure of the franchise on the inability of owner Nicholas Fitts, who is from Rochester, to gauge the Syracuse market.¶

"They are basically discouraged about the support they have there," Newman said of the Bullz. "He (Fitts) just felt it did not have any traction to be in Syracuse. Syracuse is a great basketball city and deserves a team. He was just not able to get it done there."

The Bullz last took the court on court Friday at the First State Fusion in Delaware. Syracuse had postponed its last three home games because of poor ticket sales.
