Save Your Love

Definitely one of Ace's best songs.



Kiss - Sure Know Something (Official Video)

Happy 40th Anniversary to the KISS album Dynasty. The album would be the first of three experimental albums having a disco sound while 1980's Unmasked had more a pop sound and 1981's Music From The Elder being a concept album. The album would also mark Peter Criss' last before being fired in 1980 but he only played on the song Dirty Livin' while future Ace Frehley and David Letterman drummer Anton Fig drummed on the rest.



The Crow (2/12) Movie CLIP - Re-Born (1994) HD

Happy Belated 25th Anniversary to the film The Crow which premiered on May 13, 1994. A great film that's sadly best known for being the film where Brandon Lee (son of Bruce Lee) was accidentally shot and killed on set on March 31, 1993 due to a dummy round that was lodged in a prop gun that hit him thanks to blanks that were put in the gun (the gun wasn't properly checked before using). The few remaining scenes were completed with a body double and CGI.
In a way, Lee was kind of like the 90s Heath Ledger in that he seemed to find that role that was a comic book movie that would've taken his career to the next level but instead passed away at 28 and his death loomed over the film and probably made it bigger in a way.

BIG BUCKS: THE PRESS YOUR LUCK SCANDAL

On this day in 1984, one of the most infamous moments in game show history occurred when a guy named Michael Larson appeared on the game show Press Your Luck and famously won $110,237, which at the time was highest a person ever won in one day on a game show. Larson achieved this by noticing months before while watching it that the board wasn't random but had five patterns with squares 4 and 8 never having a whammy which he memorized.

You Are All Diseased (Audio Only)

Off by a few days but Happy 20th Anniversary to the George Carlin special You Are All Diseased. We could still use this scholar.



Qui-Gon & Obi-Wan vs Darth Maul | Star Wars The Phantom Menace (1999) Mo...

n my opinion, the best lightsaber battle in the Star Wars movies. No talking, just action.



Duel Of The Fates from Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace (Official...

Happy 20th Anniversary to Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Say what you will about it and many rightfully have but I find it underrated as Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor have great chemistry as Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, the lightsaber battles are among the best in the series, and John Williams provides an awesome soundtrack.
