Enough with the 3-D already. Captain America may lead the way for Marvel movies filmed in 3-D Posted using ShareThis »
Spinning Jonah Hex
I still think Jonah is going to be a train wreck, no matter what Josh Brolin says. Originally he told Mtv News he thought the film was awful. Well, no with a bunch of reshoots and edits, a delayed trailer, and a solid June 18 release date Brolin, who plays Hex, is changing his... »
Can video games be art?
I am not well read enough to engage Roger Ebert at the level of discourse he let’s loose against those who would consider video games an art form. Usually I find Ebert’s opinion to be engaging and spot on. My gut reaction to his opinion of games never being able to achieve the classification... »
‘Mad Men’ returns in July
I am so buying a a suit to prepare for season four’s premier. AMC sets ‘Mad Men,’ ‘Rubicon’ premiere dates — The Live Feed | THR. »
With ‘Mighty Mouse’ reboot, Paramount is here to save the franchise
With ‘Mighty Mouse’ reboot, Paramount is here to save the franchise Posted using ShareThis You know, I will see this no matter how good or bad. It’s how I roll for the MM. Though honestly, I didn’t know Mighty was a subversive take on Superman in comic book form originally (though the 80s short lived reboot... »
The new who
I just finished watching the new Doctor Who on my dvr. I must say Matt Smith’s and Steve Moffet’s new incarnation of our favorite time travelling alien passed the only true litmus test for any re-generation of the Doctor I could care about. Was he witty? Was the crisis averted imaginative? Did I have... »
A Serious Man
I finally watched this film on Blu-ray Monday night after having missed it at the theater. I am starting to believe Joel and Ethan Coen are becoming as prolific filmmakers as Woody Allen. Each year, or every other, they seem to produce a film, that are calm and quiet, with the occasional critically acclaimed... »
Awesomeness
Sometimes it is the simple things that bring me the greatest pleasure. One happens to be this teaser poster for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. I cannot wait to see the movie adaptation of this great comic. Director Edgar Wright seems perfect for directing for Bryan Lee O’Malley comic book adaptation to the big... »
What I’ve been up to
The weeks have flown by without a lot of comic reading. I am probably heading to the shop this week or next to pick up my usual titles and see what new stuff I missed. In the in between time I busied myself by reading one novel, starting another, watching Lost, beginning The Wire, and... »
Game play
Because I have some newly found added time in my schedule I decided to purchase a new PS3 game Wednesday night. Not much of a gamer (I got the PS3 as a big gift last year), I only saw where Uncharted 2 was released the day before because of spam mail in my inbox.... »
Mental break of the day
This is an awesome video celebrating 25 years of Return of the Jedi. »
Comics on TV
Okay, well, comics on television really aren’t comics now are they, but they seem to be all the rage on big screens and small. I’m not saying this is a bad thing, but it is always dangerous when television and film studios sink their teeth into a concept or idea and ride it for... »
Walking Dead announcement, yeah!
In what has the potential to be wickedly awesome, The Hollywood Reporter just released a story in which AMC announced they have won the rights to a Walking Dead television series. With enough of a budget (though probably not too big) I can see my favorite comic book series at the moment being translated... »
An alien prequel?
I was just going through my overnight Twitter files when I came across this little sliver of information about a new Alien movie from Jill Pantozzi, a.k.a. @nerdybird, on her blog Has Boobs, Reads Comics (yes I started reading because of the name. Shame on me right?). It appears Ridley Scott, the director of... »
