Sturgeon’s Law

Ninety per­cent of every­thing is crap.


Derived from a quote by sci­ence fic­tion author Theodore Stur­geon, who once said, “Sure, 90% of sci­ence fic­tion is crud. That’s because 90% of every­thing is crud.” Oddly, when Sturgeon’s Law is cited, the final word is almost invari­ably changed to ‘crap’.

Chasing Papi

I read the video reviews every Fri­day so I can get some ideas for movies to put in my Net­flix queue. The Augusta Chron­i­cle pub­lishes about a half dozen con­densed ver­sions of the Roger Ebert review. (I don’t always agree with Roger, but I always find him enter­tain­ing.) Here is the review for the movie Chas­ing Papi:

A feature-length jig­gle show designed to dis­play Rose­lyn Sanchez, Sofia Ver­gara and Jaci Velasquez in a way that would make your aver­age Maxim reader feel right at home. They play the girl­friends of the three-timing Papi (Eduardo Verastegui), and when they arrive simul­ta­ne­ously at his home the plot requires them to run through a lot of scenes wear­ing high heels and squeal­ing with pas­sion or fear or delight, while a stu­pen­dous amount of jig­gling goes on.

The pri­mor­dial man in me is intrigued by this and is try­ing to fig­ure out how to “acci­den­tally” get Net­flix to deliver this movie.

Here is his full review.
