Why You Shouldn’t Watch Firefly

July 30, 2008 by Sucilaria

Many, if not most of you, have already viewed Joss Whedon’s Firefly series and the follow-up film, Serenity. This article is not intended for you; however, let me say that I’m sorry. I now feel your pain, because some supposed “friends” convinced Bart and I to view the series. I had many reservations about it, […]

A funny/strange video of singing along to the Batman theme. I predict you will either love this or hate this.

Press “A” Repeatedly to Torture Moloch

July 23, 2008 by Dave

Continuing the spin-up of the hype machine for the Watchmen movie, downloadable episodic Watchmen video games are coming. The developer claims that this will give them more time to actually produce a quality game, unlike the vast majority of movie cash-in tie-in games. The games will follow the adventures of Nite Owl and Rorschach, I’m […]

Inquisition of the Week: Bat-sequel

July 21, 2008 by Dave

The clear winner, with 59%, is Batman Begins, the reimagining with an all-star cast that lead into The Dark Knight. The previous first Batman movie came in second with 20%, and the first animated Batman movie, […]

Watchmen Trailer

July 17, 2008 by Bartoneus

If you haven’t heard yet, the Watchmen trailer is out!  I believe it’s showing before The Dark Knight, in which case I’ll be very excited to see it on the big screen at midnight tonight.  But do you really think you’d have to wait until then to see it, of course not!  You can check it out […]

YouTubes of the Week Versus the Zombies Edition

July 15, 2008 by Dave

Two videos featuring some unlikely zombie killers. The first, the trailer for the movie Chanbara Beauty, sent to me by the Chatty DM who claims to have seen the movie and still has his eyes intact. The second, a music video featuring Gorbachev as Conan fighting zombies, which was first featured by Amber Night.

Inq. of the Week: Why So Serious?

July 14, 2008 by Bartoneus

This Friday is the day many of us have been waiting for since we saw the last 10 minutes of Batman Begins, back in 2005.  At that point it had been exactly 10 years since any real effort was put towards bringing the caped crusader to the big screen, and even those results were questionable.  […]

YouTube of the Week: F Yeah!

July 8, 2008 by Dave

In honor of the 4th of July last Friday here in the states, I present the above (whose existence I was reminded of by BoingBoing.) NSFW audio.

June 17, 2008 by Dave

I may not be a GTA fan, but I’ll take any excuse to show a Naked Gun homage.

June 5, 2008 by Dave

OK, it’s never going to be complete, but it’s a major milestone… e. pointed out that Gamers 2: Dorkness Rising has FINALLY found a distributor, and will be available for sale at GenCon. I have been eagerly looking forward to this for years, and even moreso after I finally got to see the finished product […]
