November 29, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffLord of the Rings, Mitchell Smith, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

The POP-EXPOSE Featuring ‘THE LORD OF THE RINGS’ When The Lord of the Rings hit theaters back in 2001 I was not a fan yet. I remember seeing the trailer for the movie and I had know Idea about the books or the story at the time. I remember thinking to myself that looks good. In 2003 when The Return of the King hit theaters I was a fan. I had watched the first 2 movies on DVD, and ROTK was the only one I saw at theaters. I’m not…

The POP-EXPOSE – ‘Being Thankful’ by Mitchell Smith Turkey day is ever so close. This will be my 40th Thanksgiving, but I don’t remember the first few. Many traditions have been followed over the years, and there have been many stages over 4 decades for me. My table has grown and shrunk. Over the course of those years I have become more thankful each year of the people who are still at the table, as I think about the people who are not there any longer. Many of those who…

November 1, 2015April 12, 2022 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, G.I.Joe, Hasbro, Scarlett, Snake Eyes, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

This week I am picking my top ten list of G.I. Joe’s. I am basing my selections on 3 factors.1. Action figure appeal , I didn’t factor in vehicles but I will mention them if my character comes with one .2. Who I would want in a battle standing next to me making sure I didn’t die.3. AND, This is my twist, as most Northerners are packing the summer stuff away and tuning up the snow blowers, my final cut is who I would want on my team if we…

October 25, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffMitchell Smith, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

Today’s POP-EXPOSE courtesy of Serpentorslair Contributor ‘Mitchell Smith‘! Look at it from my perspective As we all know life is full of different views and complete different ways of living, and we are all entitled to our own opinions. As I travel through life I have realized one important thing that Steven Tyler so eloquently put in his song Amazing, Life’s a journey not a destination. Kind of like many road trips I have taken over the years so many were long awaited endings to get to that certain destination,…

October 11, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffAtlanta Braves, Baseball, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

This week’s article courtesy of Serpentorslair Contributor Mitchell Smith! The Atlanta Braves had a magical run in 1991 as they went from last place in 1990 to first place in 1991. Then they had the magic game in 1992 when Sid Bream rounded third base and headed home in what seemed like an eternity to reach the plate but Bream slide in and the Braves won the pennant. The Braves were in 5 World Series from 1991-1999, but they were only able to muster up 1 championship. This would make…

Today’s article courtesy of Serpenorslair Contributor Mitchell Smith! Tom Hanks has had a remarkable acting career. He is one of my favorite actors and film maker. I loved the work Tom did in Saving Private Ryan, and the Band of Brothers and the Pacific were both great WWII series. One of his first big hits was Big and from there he has stared in Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Apollo 13, The Green Mile, Cast Away, the Da Vinci Code, Captain Philips, and also had Voice work in the Polar Express and…

The POP-EXPOSE ‘Disney’s Cars’ by Mitchell Smith!

September 27, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffCars, Disney, Serpentorslair, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

Today’s article courtesy of Serpentorslair Contributor Mitchell Smith! Cars is one of my all time favorite Pixar movies. Wonderfully done and I hold a special place in my heart for Mr. Paul Newman. Cars is one of those movies I can relate to. I grew up in a small town, and if you have never lived in a small town it is so unique. There is just one gas station, one restaurant, one of each kind of person depicted by the Cars characters. Sometime we had to make our own…

‘He-Man and the Masters of the Universe’ Story by Mitchell Smith!

September 20, 2015May 19, 2022 Serpentorslair Staffaction figures, he-man, Masters of The Universe, Mattel, Mitchell Smith, Skeletor, The POP-EXPOSE, TV0 comment

He-Man is a popular cartoon that created a mystical medieval type setting with a futuristic type look. I loved watching He-Man as a kid but I never had any of the figures. I didn’t get into much more than what was aired 2 or 3 season, and recently my curiosity was spiked about the back story of He-Man when I found some figures in the basement of my mother in laws house. We moved in last year after she passed away and I found them and set the He-Man figures…

The POP-EXPOSE ‘A Star Wars Life Lesson’ By Kal-EL!

Today’s article courtesy of Serpentorslair Founder Kal-El! Whether you are a religious person or not, if you are a fan of Star Wars, you know that there are many life lessons intertwined in the mythos. What can we learn from Star Wars that would help us be better people to each other in real life? Well we could start with the Jedi code of being ‘Selfless’. If we are truly selfless, then we do not spend our time trying to get what is best for ‘ME’ all the time. We…

The POP-EXPOSE ‘Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love’ by Mitchell Smith!

September 6, 2015September 6, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffMitchell Smith, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

This week’s article courtesy of Serpentorslair Contributor ‘Mitchell Smith‘! Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love Back in the spring of 1994 Kurt Cobain was found dead at his Seattle home from apparent self inflicted gun shot wound to the head. More than a score ago the debate started on whether Kurt killed him self or if Courtney murdered him in cold blood. Both had been subjects to a rough upbringing, and their out lash of behavior to the world was sometimes over the top and un-comprehendible to a lot of people.…

The POP-EXPOSE ‘The Great New York State Fair’ by Mitchell Smith!

August 30, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffSerpentorslair, The Great New York State Fair, The POP-EXPOSE, Train0 comment

Today’s Article courtesy of Serpentorslair Contributor ‘Mitchell Smith‘! Summers in Syracuse, NY end with the New York State Fair. I’m sure around the US this is probably the same ending for a lot of states as well as some county Fairs as well. Syracuse has been the central spot for the State fair since 1841 and is the longest running fair in the USA, although things have changed and grown over the years, there still are games and rides that are very similar to the first fair, but it has…

Get the skinny on ‘Straight Outta Compton’!

August 23, 2015 Serpentorslair StaffDr. Dre, Ice Cube, Movies, Straight Outta Compton, The POP-EXPOSE0 comment

I don’t like rap. I can tolerate some of it. Whenever the music played the audio quality of the film suddenly turned the movie theater into a packed stadium with booming speakers. So if you do enjoy NWA, Dre, or Ice Cube, at the minimum you will enjoy those scenes. I can’t really say if I liked this movie or not. It was hard for a person such as myself to relate. So instead of trying to relate, I came along for the ride. What a ride it was too.…
