Spiritual Stew: Episode Two – GIGO

Here’s episode two. GIGO = Garbage In- Garbage Out. My wife listened to last week’s entry and had a few things to say. I’m hoping that her inclusion will be a regular thing. We’ll be the Hannity/Colmes of couple ‘casting. Except she has better hair and neither of us is [...]

Booyah indeed…

I am SOOO ready for this movie. The fact that GDT is doing The Hobbit (unconfirmed rumor)and that Ron Perlman will no doubt play some part in that, hopefully voicing Smaug at the very least(/unconfirmed rumor) cranks my geek up to twelve.

Ganked from Hollywood Born: Booyah!

Watchpeanuts

Drawn by Evan Shaner
On a whim I drew up a piece last week asking the question “What if Charles Schulz created the Watchmen?” and holy crap I had no idea people were going to like it. I posted it on Deviant Art and the darn thing spread like wildfire. So there you go, I guess [...]

Once

I suspect that everyone that has wanted to see Once has done so. I am a lame-o when it comes to getting to the theater and I’m not entirely sure that this came to my town anyway. In any case this seems like a fitting day to recommend an Irish movie.

Star Trek The Tour

Dumb Intel

Now I know what this poster from Intel is trying to say. “Make your computer as fast as a bald black man.” And that’s problematic in and of itself. But to have these men seemingly bowing to El Khakidor makes this an image that’s even a little squirmier than that. What [...]

25 Bottles of Nyquil on the Wall

What Would Happen if You Bought 25 Bottles of Nyquil? This woman gets a wild hair and decides to find out. Very funny stuff (and some naughty words).

Spoilers

Seeing a shirt on Threadless (posted to my tumblelog) that “spoils” a few classics and one or two recent movies got me to thinking. What should the shelf life on spoilers be?
I don’t get out to the movies much and as a result have missed a fair number of “classics”. For me to [...]
