David Goyer Is Bringing ‘100 Bullets’ To Showtime.

100 Bullets used to be a favorite comic series of mine. Then I fell out of the funny book swag for a good three or four years and when I returned I never caught up. Shame, damn shame. Even with this gulf between the series and myself, I’m pretty excited that it’s being adapted into a television show for Showtime.

Christina Hendricks As Wonder Woman? Jesus. Lord. Yes. Priapism.

If there’s a good lord in Heaven, he’ll make this rumor into concrete. Christina Hendricks as Wonder Woman? That’s what Danish filmmaker  Nicolas Winding Refn has been saying, should he get to make a flick based on the comics.

Game of Thrones FINALE!: Fire and Blood

If the final minutes of “Fire and Blood” didn’t make your jaw hit the floor, best go have your pulse checked. The dragon(s) have awoken and season 1 of Thrones ended on such a homerun for HBO, the audience, and that fat guy with two middle initials: George R.R.Martin. Producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss did a great job of adapting this immensely rich novel and streamlining it into a coherent show. Like the first book in the “Song of Ice and Fire” series, season 1 is essentially a prologue for the war to come and an even more grand season 2.

‘Games of Thrones’ Theme Gets 8-Bit Style Remix.

The theme to Game of Thrones is one colossally awesome affair. Some enterprising lads or ladettes, or both, have taken said theme and given it an 8-bit wash. Now my favorite geeky fantasy TV show can sound like a throwback to the RPGs I played to the point of obesity and perma-virginity.

Hit the jump to check it out.

Game of Thrones: The Pointy End

Game of Thrones does this really incredible thing every week in which things appear to be at their worst. It feels like at any moment the kettle is going to boil over and everything will burst into flames. The amazing thing is that it doesn’t. The scary thing is, is that it’s still going to get worst. It’s unrelenting. With this episode everyone is gearing up for war. The “green” Robb Stark is stepping up to the plate for his father’s honor, the Lannisters are eager to defend their title, the Dothraki have no choice but to follow Drogo across the sea, and it appears that an unholy army is massing north of the Wall. I’ve read the first two books in the series and all of this still excites the hell out of me.

Game of Thrones: You Win or You Die

RIP King Robert – you were a whoring drunk whose death seemed rather pathetic. But we’re not stupid. You weren’t just gutted by a boar. We know foul play when we see it. You were fed drugged wine by your squire, Lancel Lannister. You’re dead now, though. Something a lot of people have been eagerly waiting for: your wife Cersei, you “son” Joffrey, and your brothers Renly and Stannis. The problem is that all of these people feel entitled to the throne (while the real heir works as a blacksmith’s apprentice) and civil war is about to break out any moment. Martin didn’t choose the title of his book because it sounded pretty.
