McKay’s Used Books and Collectibles Stores!
Today my wife and I are going to do something we really enjoy. Any guesses?
No, not that. Get your mind out of the gutter. Try again?
Good guess, but HeroesCon doesn’t start until Friday. Give up? Ok, I’ll tell you.
Today we’re going to go to two McKay’s Used Book Stores. We’ll be swinging by the Greensboro and Winston-Salem locations. Later this week we’ll go to the Knoxville location. Yeah, we’re used book store junkies, but especially McKay’s Used Book Store junkies.
McKay Used Books was founded in 1974. The idea was that it would be a…
…book store that would contain a wide variety of books that an individual could obtain cheaply, keep as long as they wanted to, and return for credit on other books in the future… Since that time, the brand split ownership and McKay’s was born in Tennessee. In 1985, the first Tennessee location opened in Knoxville. Since then, two more TN locations have been added: McKay’s Chattanooga opened in 1990, and McKay’s Nashville opened in 2007… During this time, the original idea of a bookstore has expanded to include music, movies, electronics, games, musical instruments, collectibles, and more!
We love McKay’s not only because of the wide variety of books, music, movies and other things that they carry, but because we can trade in similar items we no longer want for either cash or store credit. (Give us store credit, please!). Plus McKay’s prices are reasonable and they always have sales. (Where you will usually find my wife.) I love finding books I need for my collection and discovering new authors thanks to McKays. The only thing that would make McKay’s Used Book Stores better is if they had a central Florida location.
Thomas Boatwright, Cobra and Pizza!
Today we have a video of Thomas Boatwright creating a watercolor Stallone as Cobra sketch for me. I was surprised at how much Boatwright knew about Sly and Cobra. As always, I love the Boatwright’s art. You can see more of it here.
Sly Stallone Starring in “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” Video!
Most fans of this site have probably seen the poster for Stallone in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. (You definitely did if you saw Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Last Action Hero.) Now, thanks to Ctrl Shift Face we can see what the Stallone Terminator 2 movie would have looked like.
Oh, and if you like the Stallone Terminator 2: Judgment Day poster, click on it to see a apocalyptic-sized version.
Tom Reilly Teams Jack Carter and John Wick!
I usually don’t post any of my Stallone commissions until I’ve received them, but Tom Reilly sent me a scan of the Jack Carter/John Wick piece he did for me and I like it so much I just couldn’t wait!

The “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” Poster and Trailer are Here!
The Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark poster and trailer are here!
From the dark imaginations of Academy Award®-winner Guillermo del Toro and acclaimed director André Øvredal, based on the iconic book series, comes Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark — in theaters this summer.
It’s 1968 in America. Change is blowing in the wind…but seemingly far removed from the unrest in the cities is the small town of Mill Valley where for generations, the shadow of the Bellows family has loomed large. It is in their mansion on the edge of town that Sarah, a young girl with horrible secrets, turned her tortured life into a series of scary stories, written in a book that has transcended time—stories that have a way of becoming all too real for a group of teenagers who discover Sarah’s terrifying home.
Shot by Shot with the “Rambo: Last Blood” Trailer!
Samantha Olthof at Film School Rejects takes us through Shot by Shot with the Rambo: Last Blood Trailer. I did catch something I missed in the trailer – Rambo coming up out of the ground during the attack on his property. Check and out and see if there’s anything you missed.
‘John Wick’ Franchise Director Chad Stahelski Interview
Jack Giroux at /Film has an interesting interview with John Wick 3 director, Chad Stahelski. It’s worth a read and here are a couple of tidbits to whet your appetite before you click over…
They call it the curse of the sequel. They love the first movie because it’s original, but by its very nature, the sequel can’t be original in the same way as the first one is because it’s a sequel [Laughs]. So how do you become original, how do you keep the audience invested in what they love and at the same time, show them something new? They want to see it again, but they don’t want you to repeat exactly.
Same with backstory. Halle [Berry] can look at John with the anger, the love, and the look and stoicism and still agree to help, and that should tell you there’s something there. I don’t need her to say, “I love you. We were together for five years.” If you’ve gotta say that, you got the wrong cast or you’ve gotta drop the writers.
Click over and get your John Wick 3 fix!
