Movies
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (The movie that set the standard for a new generation of beautiful, artistic martial arts flicks. Breathtaking)* The Fifth Element (A quirky little gem that is highly entertaining, with spectacular effects and some of the most colorful characters ever to hit Sci-Fi) * Blade (Not only is Blade one of the better Vampire movies, it’s also one of the best comic book-to-movie adaptations. This movie truly redefines the Vampire genre for the 21st century) * Star Trek: First Contact (As if I could do a ‘best of’ movie list without one Trek flick! First Contact is by far the best of the 10 movies, offering up an action-packed thrill ride with the terrifying Borg as the antagonist) * Run Lola, Run (A heart-pounding, intense thriller that will really make you think about how the smallest action can have life-altering effects. Add to that a kick-ass techno soundtrack, and you’ve got 90 minutes of German punk bliss) * Moulin Rouge (This is what all musicals should be like. An all-star cast with dazzling costumes and scenery, frisky songs, and best of all - a beautiful love story) * Donnie Darko (A dark, twisted cult gem. If you get it, it will rock your world) * American Beauty (It’s hard to put into words what makes this movie so amazing. You just have to look closer… for yourself...) * The Matrix (Talk about a trip down the rabbit hole! Nothing like it before, nothing like it since. Sleek, sexy, and stylish, with innovative special effects) * V For Vendetta (Wow. No other movie has ever moved or inspired me to the extent V did. Proof that no matter how intense the message, how political the views, or how volatile the idea, art is one medium left that can dare to say what others will not. Artists use lies to tell the truth indeed...) * Kill Bill, Vol. 1 & 2 (Bloody, Violent, Intense, and Chaotic. A truly fantastic pulp movie, as only Tarantino can do) * ALIEN and ALIENS (Maybe I’m cheating by picking 2, but watch them back-to-back. ALIEN, for it’s groundbreaking terror and definitive use of ‘not showing too much of the monster until the end’, and ALIENS for it’s down and dirty warfare, that proved Sigourney Weaver truly had balls) * Grindhouse * The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (There’s no way to choose one over the others. Without a doubt, a true masterpiece of filmmaking) * The Fountain * Star Wars (Seriously, has any other movie in the last 30 years had as much of an impact on the world? No. Best Episode? The Empire Strikes Back - Hands down) * 300 * Sin City * Silent Hill * Pan's Labyrinth * Notes on a Scandal * The Dark Knight
Television
BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (Seriously, this show started on The WB as a mid-season replacement named Buffy The Vampire Slayer. It shouldn’t have survived past the first season. Thanks to the genius of Joss Whedon, Buffy quickly became a cult hit, with fantastic stories, incredible twists, and hands down the best cast of characters on any television show ever. After seven seasons, we were given a finale that didn’t disappoint, and not a Tuesday night goes by that I don’t long for a new episode of Buffy), ANGEL (Buffy’s sister show had much of the same wit, wonder, and magic as Buffy, but was darker and more mature. Terrific story lines and amazing characters, Angel was cut short long before it’s time), STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION, 24 (In terms of serialized drama, no show has ever come close to the intensity of 24. Thrilling, shocking, and graphic, 24 never plays it safe, and you never know when a key character could be killed or a plot taken in a twisted direction. 24 literally keeps you on the edge of your seat for the entire hour episode - and leaves you desperate for the next hour), SOUTH PARK (No other comedy or animated series has been as disgusting, crude, or offensive - or as hysterical. South Park has the ability to make fun of even the most serious topics, and thirteen seasons later is dead-on. Cartman = riotous), LOST (A simple premise turned captivating and mysterious with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. Still the best Pilot episode ever aired), THE SIMPSONS (20 seasons, over 400 episodes, and still damn funny), HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, PRISON BREAK, EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS, BONES, REAPER, PLANET EARTH, THE SARAH SILVERMAN PROGRAM, THE REAL WORLD, PROJECT RUNWAY (best reality show ever), UGLY BETTY, SURVIVOR (The Grand-Daddy of reality shows, Survivor sucks you in and keeps you hooked until the final tribal council), 30 ROCK, STAR TREK: VOYAGER, DRAWN TOGETHER, MOONLIGHT, TORCHWOOD, SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, FAMILY GUY (Crude, sick, wrong - and funny as Hell. If this show doesn’t make you laugh, you must be dead), AMERICAN DAD, THE AMAZING RACE (One of the best reality shows ever - 11 teams of two race around the world, finding clues and completing missions. First team to hit the finish line wins a million bucks. ‘Race’ offers up fantastic scenery and locations, thrilling twists and challenges, and a diverse group of players, from Bowling Moms to Gay couples), THE X-FILES (A groundbreaking show with two of the best characters to ever hit television. Not only did The X-Files put Fox on the map, it turned Friday nights into a fun night to stay home for TV. Sometimes funny, sometimes scary, sometimes gruesome - but always entertaining), MILLENNIUM (Hidden in the shadow of cousin show X-Files, Millennium was a dark, twisted, graphic series that never failed to take you to the edge - and beyond. Haunting), BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES (Cartoon yes, but the best Batman serial to date, with fantastic animation and a plethora of celebrity voices), STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE (One of the least recognized of the Trek series, but also one of the best. Darker, Grittier, and action-packed, with the largest cast of characters in any Trek series to date. For an intense serialized story, check out the Dominion War storyline, which lasted FIVE SEASONS!), JANICE DICKINSON MODELING AGENCY, RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE, FRINGE, MAKE ME A SUPERMODEL, STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES, REBA, PARKS AND RECREATION, TERMINATOR: SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES, DOLLHOUSE, STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE

Lord Byron's Ramblings:
When I sat down to put together a brief biography I was torn between several options: Do I make it artistic and abstract (without being pretentious)? Or fun and lively (without sounding dumb)? Do I write it in third person? Do I list favorite things? Finally, I settled on a mix of all of the above. It's Shake 'n Bake - And I helped!
If you had told me seven years ago I'd be where I am today, I would have thought you full of shit. I'm pretty involved in this crazy thing called Fetish Performance Art. From that, many other things have developed: Burlesque, Dance, Modeling... I've explored dance over the past 4 years and performed with Vivid Motion Inc in Nutcracker Burlesque, Night Before Burlesque, and their Four Annual Spring Dance Shows. I've trained in Middle Eastern and Belly Dance, and the oh-so-hot-it's-making-a-comeback Burlesque. I keep up the writing, and currently I'm working on a humorous (I hope) novel titled '101 Reasons I Hate People'. I've co-written a short screenplay called 'Leftovers' which I hope to film someday, and I'm working on a longer film called 'The Information'. And just because I don't have enough on my plate, I'm finding myself drawn to photography, both in front of and behind the lens. I've started doing a little bit of work as a model, and I guess I dig it. If you're lucky, you'll find the erotica website where my scandalous photo sets are on display. I'm always looking for other models and photographers to work with, so if you've got some talent, hit me up!
Who I'd like to meet: Other artists for networking/collaborations (dance, performance art, burlesque, modeling). Always on the look-out for good photographers interested in shooting models with a flair for the abstract and the edgy (me). It seems I'm becoming more interested in event organization these days, so if you think you've got something to offer for a future event, hit me up!
As for dating... well, I like my independence, but being single sucks. If you are weird, artistic, creative, serious, arrogant, and have an appetite for adventure and a mind for madness... you get moved to the front of the pack. I'm fit, healthy, and I take care of myself. You should be too.
My muses (oh, who am I kidding? These are celebs I wanna boff!):
Who I'd go gay for: Robbie Williams, Colin Farrell, Antonio Sabato Jr, Mark Dalton, Jude Law, James Marsters, Vin Diesel, David Boreanaz, Stephen Dorff, Ryan Reynolds, Casper Van Dien, Matthew MacFayden, Zachary Quinto, Josh Wald, Clive Owen, Raza Jaffrey, JP Calderon, Rusty Joiner, Steve Cruz, Dominic Figlio, Mike Roberts
Who I'd go straight for: Madonna, Michelle Pfeiffer, Uma Thurman, Nicole Kidman, Lucy Lui, Sigourney Weaver, Geena Davis, Jeri Ryan, Dita Von Teese, Gillian Anderson, Rihanna, Marina Sirtis, Angelina Jolie, Kelly Hu, Vivica Fox, Anne Hathaway, Heidi Klum, Claudia Schiffer, Emily Deschanel, Cate Blanchett, Gwen Stefani
