Movies, martial arts, weight-training, music sequencing and playing trombone. Oh, and ONE CHEAP MOVE.
Music
Let's face it...80's pop and rock. Nothing else counts accept maybe BT, the Rolling Stones, and music from the soundtrack of the show ONE CHEAP MOVE.
Movies
And Now For a List of My Favorite Movies!
Raiders of the Lost Ark, Die Hard, the Matrix...you know, GOOD movies. Huh? No, I don't like any of the lame-ass sequels. I do however think it would be okay to make sequels to the movie version of ONE CHEAP MOVE.
Television
Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Beavis & Butthead, Conan O'brian, and of course, the ultimate show, ONE CHEAP MOVE.
Books
The novel adapation of ONE CHEAP MOVE.
Heroes
I love a great action hero. In recent years, I think we've been running quite short on them. Real life heros? My karate teacher is the best person I've ever met. And heros that are just to good for existence? Myself, because I'm in the show ONE CHEAP MOVE.

PRESS RELEASE
ALMOST: COMING SOON TO LOCAL THEATERS
First time director Laurence Maher aims to knock audiences off their feet in 2009 by opening a surprise release of his new romantic comedy Almost across the U.S. and Canada...against a slate of movies that don't seem to be taking advantage of the economy like he is. Going head to head with studio horrors, studio thrillers, studio dramas, and studio action films, there are fewer and fewer choices of romantic comedies on date nights. So chances are guys and dolls hungry for more romantic selection at the box office will be good to this quickly snowballing independent release.
"People in a hurting economy need laughs when they spend time with each other," says Maher, "Romantic comedies represent hope, they represent love, they represent the best of what human beings are and can be. They're fun and uplifting and leave two people on a date with warm fuzzys. That's what people need on a date. Besides, let's face it. The girls are picking the movies, and the guys looking to please won't say no."
Although indeed a romantic comedy, Almost is not without it's crowd pleasers. It has action, drama, and even chase scenes. In fact, viewers see it as a jack of all trades type film, hitting audiences on several levels.
"I was aiming for that kind of a movie that appeals to a broad audience," Maher continues, "A real feel good flick full of thrills and spills, so even if the guys don't get their blood and guts fix that night, they're still gonna leave the theater jazzed and being glad that's what they saw."
One advantage Almost has in terms of box office numbers is that it's being digitally projected on every screen. Not only are the prints low cost for the distributors, they'll also be scratch and dirt free for the entire theater run. This cheaper method of screening enables the filmmakers to give the theater chains a much greater cut of the profits, which partially explains the amount of theaters clammering to show it.
"I couldn't believe the amount of calls I got from theater owners after the trailer went up," said Maher, "People love the trailer, because it packs a good punch in a very short period of time. And of course, the trailer right now is all over the internet, which is pretty much free word of mouth. That's the beauty of digital. It's so inexpensive. I love film, and will always be a proponent of it and will shoot on it as long as I can, but digital distribution is simply the way of the future. And it enables guys like me to enjoy the same kind of mass release as the major studios. And no theater is gonna argue with the cut I'm able to offer them because of it."
The film plot: This big Hollywood feel roller coaster is a surreal 24 hour adventure where two freshly broken hearts cross paths at a Dallas train station, experiencing love at first sight just long enough for the doors to close between them. A high-speed romantic comedy sporting every emotion in the book, this movie will keep audiences on the edge of their seat as they cheer for the heros to beat the odds and reunite, despite the crazy obstacles and characters in a city that would Almost not see a happily ever after ending.
Mass fans of the cult movie hit Office Space will remember Kinna McInroe, who returns to the big screen this time to pull laugh after laugh as the raging best friend of Jade Rigas, the film's heroine.
Starring: Jade Rigas, Kinna McInroe, Russell White, Dana McConnell, and Laurence Maher
