about

Well, what can I say…I blog for Universal Dork…does that qualify me as a true, purebred dork? Come on out to Universal Dork and decide. As mild mannered konales, I am a research scientist by day and comic, horror, anime, death metal lovin’ dork by night. Kind of a modern day professional mad scientist (Dr. Jekyll and Hyde)! I am pretty open to all topics and comments. In fact I love to hear for the readers…if you don’t agree or want to be heard, be assure for my posts I love to respond and drum up some dialog. Fear not fellow dorks, there are others out there like you…many in fact. And we are looking to cover topics that you don’t really care about…but love to read about. Thanks for reading and supporting.

  • Universal Dork Exclusive: Jabba the Slim Necked Hut!

    You will hear it here first…and only here at Universal Dork! Despite popular belief, Jabba the Hut did not die on his sand barge by the Sarlacc pit on Tatooine.  If you remember the accounts of the fateful day, he was believed to be choked to death by the very chains that bound his entertainment,…

  • Gettin’ Down with Watership Down

    Any attempt I can get, I love to relive the cartoons and movies of my childhood.  In this particular case, it occurred to me…what about that movie Watership Down?  I am sure many of the loyal readers are familiar but are most likely in the same position I found myself…I remember that movie, I remember…

  • If the Collector Calls…it’s gonna be Bad News!

    So, The Collector…saw it this weekend and here are my thoughts… When approaching the theater, I had to remind myself that The Collector was written and directed by Marcus Dunstan. Dunstan has written Saw IV, V, and the upcoming VI (personally, the world could have done without II-V). In the case of The Collector, I…

  • Space Ace Comes to the iPhone!

    Wow, I could not contain my excitement when I saw this so I had to write up a quick one for you. SPACE ACE for the iPhone! Now, I apologize to anyone that may not have an iPhone, but just perhaps this is the tipping point for you go out and splurge! For those with…

  • Power…Courage…A Prerequisite for the Spiral Zone!

    Growing up there were so many cool cartoons. One that always caught this Dorks attention, and remains one of the lesser followed/known is the Spiral Zone. Airing in 1987-88, Spiral Zone was the Trademarked to Tonka toys and ran for 65 episodes. In the end, the series was a financial flop on the part of…

  • Zombie Horror…AT BARGAIN BASEMENT PRICING!!!

    I heard about this film a while back, but typical of me, I did not do my due diligence and follow up…well now Colin, a new British zombie flick is gaining some critical mass.  The most shocking thing is that this movie was made for only $70 or more appropriately, about 42 pounds and 50…
