Allow me to take you on a small adventure through my life of the last few months. With more spare time than I’ve had in the last six years and a cornucopia of neglected hobbies crying out for attention, trying to choose what to do next can be rather difficult.
Inq. of the Week: Friendly Local Gaming Stores?
This week December is officially upon us, and with it comes the full force of the holiday season and all of the shopping that implies. I find it a shame that ordering RPG books online from places like Amazon is so much cheaper then it would be if I were to go to my local game store.
Inq. of the Week: Non-RPG Content?
Well voting for the ENnies closed over the weekend, first and foremost I’d like to extend our thanks and appreciation to everyone who voted for us! No matter what you ranked our site compared to the others, they all help and hopefully we will be pleasantly surprised at the ceremony during GenCon.
Marvel’s X-Men Movie Mistakes
Stemming from some of the comments on Darth Cthulhu’s ‘controversial’ Star Trek post, I started thinking about the first X-Men movie and its relation to the rest of the franchise now that X-Men Origins: Wolverine is out. One commentor related the first X-Men movie, Ironman, and the first Spiderman to Star Trek as examples that […]
Inq. of the Week: Watch What you Read?
This Friday is the release date for the Watchmen movie, and for me now is a good time to be thankful that the lawsuit involving the movie rights didn’t result in this date being pushed back! With that in mind I’m sure we’ll be talking about the movie a lot over the next week or two, and one big thing that I’ve heard a lot about is how many people will see this movie without ever reading or even seeing the comic book.
Impressions: Baltimore Comic-Con 2008
I’ve been to a fair number of conventions, but this past Sunday was my first time going to a strictly comic convention and I have to say the experience was pretty extraordinary. Several of the other conventions I’ve been to have also been in the Baltimore Convention Center, and as we walked in my first […]
Inq. of the Week: Who Reads Comics?
We should have provided an over/under on last week’s poll, I’d be curious to see who would have guessed that 52% of our voting readers are married gamers. Coming in at second is 28% of you who are gamers and single, 16% are gamers and in relationships, with only 5 votes (3%) in the gamer […]
Watchmen Trailer
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 […]
Watchmen Characters Revealed
Today is exactly one year until the movie Watchmen is released, and now they’ve released a group of images of what many of the main characters look like. Head over to the Watchmen site to see all of the glorious full-size shots. I have to say that I think these are perfect, especially the Comedian […]
Inq. of the Week: Summer Movies ’08
Who would have thought that in such a innuendo laden poll that Portable Hole would be the most popular choice? Thankfully the Rod of Splendor and Holy Avenger tied at second place, but I was still very surprised that the ever vigilant Immovable Rod didn’t attract more people. This week we’re all pretty excited after seeing the new […]
