I've been talking about the Schlocktoberfest site getting a much needed remodeling. After much annoyances and bugs to be worked out, that time has finally come - along with a new URL. Now both http://www.foywonder.com and http://www.schlocktoberfest.com will take you to the newest Foyeurism. Figured that since the Foyeurism is the main thing on the website that people come for then that might as well become the front page. At least that's the plan for now. We're still testing things out with the front page makeover so there may or may not be more tweaking to come. There's also the matter of a new URL. Using the Schlocktoberfest URL will still take you to the same location (at least for a few more years) but FOYWONDER.COM is now the primary URL. Couldn't come up with anything more clever to name the website so I just went with the obvious. Could have called it Foyeurism.com but I guarantee you that would result in a ton of porn-related results when people use search engines. Anyway, the opener for this month's Foyeurism explains even more about some of the changes that have occured and are to come. Looking for feedback from readers about their thoughts on the revamping. Does everything appear fine, like or dislike the layout, easy to navigate, loading time, etc.
Navigation buttons are at the top of the page below the header. You might want to have a look at the Archives page for a major updating. Over 150+ Dread Central reviews (including a few old ones I did back in the Creature Corner day that never made it over to Dread Central) as well as links to all the reviews I've done here on the blog. In other words, damn near everything I've ever written online.
And in celebration of Foywonder.com and the Schlocktoberfest site makeover I felt a very special Foyeurism was in order. What's more special than THE RADNESS OF CRU JONES? A sample if you will:
quote:
Yes, RAD - the greatest bike movie ever made and the second greatest KARATE KID knock-off of all time (the first will be the subject of another review another time) - is an all-time favorite of mine and I wasn't even big into BMX as a kid either. This 1986 masterwork of cinema from Hal Neeham, director of MEGFORCE, SMOKEY & THE BANDIT, BODY SLAM, and the CANNONBALL RUN films, is a simple tale about one man with one dream; and that dream is to ride his bicycle and ride it better than everyone in the entire world. No, I'm not talking about the kind of bicycle riding that Lance Armstrong is famous for. That kind of bike riding is for pansies. Why do you think it's so popular in France? I'll tell you why: because the French aren't man enough to ride BMX! Real men, real Americans, they ride dirt bikes. Roads? BMX riders don't need pavement. Uphill inclines? BMX riders don't just climb up hills, they jump over them. You think some namby pamby like Lance Armstrong could navigate a bicycle course as ferocious as HELLTRACK~!? Ha! Ha, I say! Ha, I tell you! The supposed best cyclist in the world has to go to Frogland to trek through the hills on a 10-speed. Everyone knows that the true greatest bike rider there ever was and will ever be is Cru Jones. AMERICAN FLYERS can kiss my ass! It's all about RAD! No doping here.
So there you go. A new Foyeurism at a new home; ctually an old home with a new look. Enjoy, and let me know what you think of the new layout.
