Monday News: Careless Whispers
I’m back from Ohayocon, with a whole two weeks of news to look at; did things pick up during that break or is January going to continue being a blank spot for me? – First look at new TMNT product comes from Hong Kong Toyfair The big toy reveals just got a head start for … Continue reading
Monday News: ‘The Doom that came to my finances’ or ‘Beyond the wall of self-restraint’
Nothing may have made money at the box office this weekend, but man, work was awesome. The downside of that is the terrifying weather friends on the East Coast are experiencing so I hope everyone out there is ready for Hurricane Sandy. This is why I hate the weather guys. But I have fun news type stuff … Continue reading
Monday News: Straying from the source material
Well through sheer force of will, I managed to watch at least two of the three movies I mentioned in the last installment while waiting on this month’s Matty shipments to arrive. I’ll discuss them a little more in a Monthly Briefs entry but for now, Seven Psychopaths is very entertaining and The Master is engrossing despite feeling sort … Continue reading
Ep. 96: He Who Controls the Spice Controls…The Universe!
Download HERE Well you guys are probably looking at the early pics from SDCC, like I just was until I started writing this, but that’s OK as we’re seeing some really impressive stuff already. But we’ve got a new episode waiting for when you’re done being glad that you don’t have to buy Sentry again … Continue reading
Monday News: Please, complain about your glamorous creative lifestyle
Only a few days until SDCC and Twitter is hopping with people complaining about how exhausted they’ll be by the third day, much to my mixed emotional response. I’ll be at my crappy dead-end job trying not to lose my mind while cleaning up yet another mess of stuff people snuck into a theater. Seriously … Continue reading
Monday News: Post ‘Prometheus’ fallout edition
I’m back from Paris and Prometheus, the most anticipated film of the summer, has seen release at last. As people basically hop on the “absolutely great and you’re dumb for not getting it” vs. “absolutely awful and overanalyzing throwaway lines doesn’t make you smart” thought processes, I’m going to hang out over here until I get … Continue reading
Monday News: Eye Catcher
I’m still in Paris but I’ve found time for some news in between hiking through the Louvre, watching movies that aren’t released domestically yet, and wondering if the Saber figma I saw in the window of a comic store might have faded any as a determinant in me buying it. – Hear Priest tell you … Continue reading
Monday News: Focus on design
C2E2 is over and we’re back home now, so that means I have to face reality again. We had a pretty good time, one you’ll be hearing about soon and probably got a few snippets of if you’re following any of us on Twitter, but now the process of fixing all the crap that went … Continue reading
Monday News: Working your way into Hollywood through luck and lack of talent
Wow, the stuff that ends up in my Netflix queue. I have no idea how First Squad ended up in there but, somehow, it did. Not that a Russian Japanese co-production about a secret squad of psychic Soviet children fighting to stop an invasion of medieval era zombies sounds like a terrible idea, as far … Continue reading
Monday update: No news is… no news edition
So if you’ve be on the internet today you probably haven’t seen a whole ton of news outside of the political/real world news I always try to steer clear of. That’s likely because everyone’s getting all their travel arrangements prepared for the trip to SDCC while I’m at home reading the last third of the … Continue reading
