Happy New Year!

I'd just like to wish you a very Happy New Year! May 2018 be peaceful and prosperous for you.

A Mad Lab Captive

A woman wakes up to find herself in a precarious position in my latest Poser picture. This is my quest to keep improving upon my book cover skills, especially since I'll be writing a new Ryta book very soon.

Finding oneself in a mad scientist laboratory is bad enough, but as a bound and naked damsel in distress is positively nightmarish. You can see this picture right here.

Jenny's in trouble

The Abduction of Jennifer Grayson is a recently released film starring Rachel Jane Conn who plays a kidnap victim. It reminds me of The Disappearance of Alice Creed, in how Gemma Arterton was similarly tied up by her kidnappers (with no gag, just like here)

Miss Conn is barefoot the whole time she's tied, and clad in a scant outfit of panties and a tank top. The clip is quite long, Raffish (who clipped it) decided to let things run their natural course.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

I saw Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle today, and enjoyed it...somewhat. I really liked the original Jumanji film with the late great Robin Williams. This version is a sequel in the sense that it pulls a group of teens into a video game version of Jumanji, whereas in the original, elements of the game spilled out into the real world.

The new film has a welcome sense of humor, with the Rock, Karen Gillian, Jack Black, and Kevin Hart all playing avatars of the teens in the game. And an inspired idea was to have one of the teen girls be represented by Jack Black, who's very funny.

It lacks the fantastical aspect of the first movie, and it's a long dull slog through the first fifteen minutes before the kids are sucked into the game, but I still enjoyed it, overall. This is a good popcorn film, if nothing else.

Merry Christmas

I'd just like to wish everybody a happy, safe, and Merry Christmas. To you and yours, may the lit nose of Rudolph the reindeer always keep you warm. And try not to drink too much egg nog.

Claire Keim in Éternelle

Claire Keim stars in this short clip from the French series Éternelle. She's discovered on a bed hogtied and gagged, barefoot and clad only in an extra large shirt. Like I said, it's a short scene, but it's a good one with some nice coverage.

New Poser picture

I have a new Poser picture up on my Deviant Art page. It's a comic strip-style layout that shows a female bounty hunter tying up her scantily clad captive, a beach bunny she caught at a pool party. You can see this picture right here.

Building the Death Star

This is a fan-produced CG film that's a time-lapse of the construction of the Death Star from Star Wars. They show the construction from scratch, starting with the trench that Luke later dives into to shoot his torpedoes. The trench serves as the Death Star's keel, which is usually the first thing that's laid down in ship building. It's very well done, well thought out, and really cool.

Alita Battle Angel

This is the latest by James Cameron (who's producing) and Robert Rodriguez (who's directing). Alita is based on an anime that I'm not familiar with. It's a robotic girl who, in this movie, has REALLY big eyes. It intrigues me, though. I'd like to see this.

The song used in the trailer was from the TV series Sons of Anarchy. It was sung by actress Maggie Siff. The above video is the song itself, with an explanation in the description of how it came to be.

The Wonders of Aladdin (Le Meraviglie di Aladino)

The Wonders of Aladdin was released way back in December of 1961. It's release date, as well as the fact that it's a fantasy, makes it a good clip to show now (fantasy movies, like the Lord of the Rings, have usually been released around Christmas).

Noelle Adam stars as the damsel in distress here. She tied naked (which is only suggested) arms over her head and hanging from the ceiling. She's eventually rescued. Other than this scene, I haven't seen the entire movie, and wouldn't mind doing so someday.

You can watch/download this scene right here.

Star Wars The Last Jedi

I managed to see Star Wars: The Last Jedi last night, and I thought it was fantastic. I won't give away spoilers, as it's just opened this weekend, but this movie is very innovative and surprising, taking me in directions I never thought we'd go. A great, stirring ride that makes me want to see how this new trilogy will end--but at the same time I don't want it to. Good stuff; don't miss it.

Heads up

A woman is tied to a pole next to a grisly collection of severed heads (and one of them may be winking at her) in my latest Poser picture. You can see the twisted horrors right here.

Just chill out...

It's the middle of the holiday rush, and things may be getting really crazy. So be sure to take the time to take care of yourself...maybe with a massage. If you haven't the time or the money to get an actual massage (like me), then the next best thing is to watch one. It can be just as soothing as getting one. Some of these massage videos have even helped me to fall asleep.

Ready Player One?

Are you? Ready, Player One? Sorry, couldn't resist. I didn't bother reading the book because it seemed too much like the Matrix meets Tron (which wouldn't be a bad flick, come to think of it), but having seen this trailer, I think I might read the book before this comes out, which will be in March, 2018. Judging from this trailer, it looks like it might be a lot of fun.

Shut In

We're at the start of winter now, with several inches of snow on the ground, with more to come. Usually, when winter starts, I think of watching 'winter themed' movies. Usually, I'll watch the Thing 'trilogy,' which consists of the original Howard Hawks The Thing, the John Carpenter remake of The Thing, and even the prequel The Thing, which I think isn't as good as the first two, but is still entertaining none the less (it stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, which helps).

There are also some very good psychological horror movies that take place in winter, like Shut In, which features a nice scene with Namomi Watts trussed up sans clothes in a bathtub. You can watch/download this scene right here.

Spoiler warning: if you watch this clip before you see the movie, you'll find out who the killer is. The movie overall is highly recommended.

Jurassic World 2 Electric Bugaloo

Given the trillions of dollars that Jurassic World made back in 2015, it was understandable that they would make a sequel. And don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to this one, too. But I'm just not sure about the overall plot about rescuing the dinos from the island before a volcano erupts.

The problem I have with this is, they might have just spoiled the entire movie with this trailer. Unless the volcano isn't really going to be the entire main plot of the movie. I don't know, we'll see. I love this series, and I really enjoyed Jurassic World--and this new one has Jeff Goldblum back as Malcolm ("Life finds a way.")--so I'm more than willing to give this a shot.

Ryta the Jungle Girl Returns

In her latest adventure, Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Revenge of the Amstrad, Ryta is chafing under the uneasy alliance she has with her mortal enemy, Mother Midnight. But when Storm-Haven comes under attack, Ryta realizes that it's from another old enemy, the Amstrad.

Ryta, Lacey, and the others aboard the Leviathan must now probe into the deepest, darkest jungles to seek out the Amstrad, who are now led by a mysterious figure who seeks revenge against Ryta.

The latest Ryta book is now available to buy, and you can get it right here.

Lt. Kitan, free thyself

Halston Sage is best known these days as Lt. Alara Kitan on The Orville, which is a fun show that's the best Star Trek series on the air that's not a Star Trek series. Here, in the movie You Get Me, she gets tied to a chair and then gagged--all without her super strength powers that she has on The Orville.

You can watch/download this scene right here. Eggnog is optional.

Holidays

As the Holidays start to shift into high gear--can you hear the grinding sounds in the background? Accompanied by merry little jingles?--I thought we should try and get some holiday-themed bondage clips, just like we got Halloween-themed stuff in October.

This brief clip of a barefoot Megan Duffy is from the movie Holidays (how apt). You can view/download this clip right here. Eggnog is optional.

Ryta the Jungle Girl

I've been working this weekend to give the latest Ryta book the BIG PUSH in terms of getting it done and ready for publication. The second draft, along with the editing of the manuscript, is done.

The cover is done (and you're seeing it here for the first time), and the title is locked in: Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Revenge of the Amstrad. Everybody's favorite lizard men return to hunt down our heroes for some vengeance.

Now begins the formatting process of the manuscript, and once that's done (a day or two at the most), the book will be up for publication. That should be about mid-way through this coming week. This means that Ryta fans will be getting a new adventure, just in time for Christmas. I'll let you know here when it's finally available.

If you haven't read any of the Ryta books, you can start with the first book right here.

The downside of scuba diving

A man and a woman go scuba diving on a wreck only to find there's somebody already there, and they don't like intruders. This is the story behind my latest Poser picture, which you can see right here.
