Antarctica: Explored

March 23, 2007 by Bartoneus

The Washington Post has put up a very interesting article about one of the Earth’s most over-looked continents, Antarctica.  What you will find at the site is a collection of breath-taking images of snow, rock, blue skies, and explorers as well as videos and sound bites from the expedition.  Many of which end up looking digitally altered due to the […]

Nostradamus Called It

March 21, 2007 by Bartoneus

A quickie for this week, which disheartens me because of the last two weeks missed, bringing my tally for the year to -3 comics from the goal. I keep not illusions of necessarily ending the year in the positive, simply an improvement over last year will suit me well enough, but I wouldn’t have set […]

WoW Action Figures Update

March 21, 2007 by Bartoneus

To tide you over until the Random Encounter is up later today, I wanted to fulfill one of my promises made back in early February.  I said that I would post images of the World of Warcraft action figures as soon as they came out, but as I don’t visit the WoW homepage very often I must […]

YouTube of the Week: SuperZero Edition

March 20, 2007 by Dave

A trailer parodying the show “Heroes”, supposedly made by NBC’s production studio. It’s good that they’d have a sense of humor about their own show.

Inq. of the Week: And Stay Dead!

March 19, 2007 by Dave

Last week’s poll asked you what you thought about men without shirts tossing elephants off cliffs. It was a close race, with ” Very good” pulling slightly ahead of “Awesome!” and those of you who didn’t like it are few and far between. Of course, this isn’t a scientific poll, probably people searching for the […]

Comic Snap Reviews 3-18-7

March 18, 2007 by Dave

Each week, I read a bunch of comics, and rate them on a scale of HIT/MEH/MISS. I also provide some spoilers. This time, reviews in alphabetical order!

Games as Art: Yes, Yes, They Are

March 16, 2007 by Dave

Over at Amber’s blog, she references a speech made at the GDC wherein the speaker called the Wii “a piece of shit” and also stated that Nintendo doesn’t care about games as art, because if you search their site for that phrase it doesn’t appear. Well, that’s hardly a scientific analysis. As someone who has […]

Can't Wait for Spiderman 3

March 15, 2007 by Bartoneus

My lovely wife pointed the way to some IMDb boards (login necessary) with some killer sneak peaks at Topher Grace as Venom.  I’ve been curious since the villains were announced what Venom in physical form would end up looking like, and it appears that now I have my first good glimpses.  The IMDb boards point […]

See previous Pi Day coverage. And happy birthday to DarthCthulhu!

YouTube of the Week: 50% More Melty Edition

March 14, 2007 by Dave

While not, of course, as cool as the Yoda vs. Dooku fight, still a fun lightsaber video to watch. This one is a followup to their first lightsaber fight, though nothing has carried over from the first one.
