Sunshine is a great old fashion scifi film for the first hour and a half, and then it becomes a weird horror film. Overall its pretty good and it’s nice to see a science fiction film that doesn’t rely on explosion after explosion. And Chris Evans can act. Should have never been in Fantastic Four.

New Warriors # 3 So much tech here, you have to wonder when Stark and his shield boys will come down hard on the group. Its a nice ride in the post civil war universe.

Sea Of Red finished the first two trades. One too go. Vampires and Pirates, can you go wrong much?

Oh August, the time of year when things shift from explosions to comedy to october’s horror/oscar movies, back to the new winter explosion season. Well theres not much better than Bourne when it comes to action so this is a nice way to start the month.

Then there is Neil Gaiman
s Stardust, This is the movie Matthew Vaughan left xmen 3 for and it looks so darn terry gilliam I can’t believe it.

The King of Kong is awesome documentary about Billy Mitchell and his competetion to be the best. At donkey kong. check out the trailer. you will want to see this.


And for our nonsense movie of the month, we could go with Superbad, or Rush Hour 3, but I think Christopher Walken seals it for us. Balls of Fury for sure.

Pure. Evil. Genius. Movie. This was a great way to spend an hour and a half of my life. It reminded me of why I used to love the Simpsons so much. One of the cleverest movies I’ve seen in quite some time.

Dark Horse has relaunched Dark Horse Presents as an online comic. You can find it HERE The first issue has a Joss Whedon story so you now know you have to check it out. Dark Horse Presents in the eighties launched a lot of careers and more importantly new comic thought. Let’s hope it follows that tradition in it’s online form.

I got the coolest Peas shirts from my brother yesterday. It has a Pirate Pea and an octupus on it and it’s better than anything I could draw. Ill try to take a picture of it for everyone soon.

So on a day where there was supposed to be announcements galor we get this new Star Trek poster(oohhh retro) and confirmation that Zachary Quinto (SYlar from Heroes) is spock and Lenoard Nimoy is coming back to. and that’s it. Oh well if they are really going to start filming in November, it won’t be long till we hear who is going to be Kirk.
Indiana Jones posters are cool too. 2008 may be the best Geek year ever. It’s nice to always think that, but frankly this year has been outstanding.

Anyone care to train me?

I really like Bomberman Live. 8 players doing nothing but blowing each other up. And it’s so cute that I always find it funny when people with gears of wars gamertags are playing it. Both games your mission is to kill, but you couldn’t find two farther examples of killing than Bomberman’s cute I win! to the chainsaws of Gears. Anyway, point is I suck at Bomberman Live. Havent won one silly tournament. I need to get better or the enjoyment will seriously wane. I need a trainer, are you up to the challenge?
