‘MASS EFFECT’ Comes To ‘FINAL FANTASY’ In DLC Orgasmtime.
There’s Mass Effect shiz dropping into Final Fantasy XIII-2-Cash-Grab-Grande, and it makes my knob twitch. It’s a common known fact that N7 armor from Mass Effect puts me into gadget-future-porn rapture, even when its been crammed into a franchise I’ve rolled into my cat’s litter box and scratched grit over.

Buggers Beware! Ender’s Game Is Blogging!!!
Despite the fact that Orson Scott Card is a raging homophobe, there’s no denying that Ender’s Game is one of the classics of science fiction literature. In it, a young boy named Ender Wiggin is taken to Battle School where is gifts as a strategist are revealed. His talent is used in the ongoing conflict with the “buggers” – an alien race who won’t stop fronting on the human race. It’s “sequel” Speaker for the Dead, is one of the greatest books I’ve ever read. Period.
After decades of planned adaptation, the book is finally coming to the big screen with Hugo‘s Asa Butterfield as the lead, Gavin Hood (Tsotsi) directing, and Roberto Orci producing. The crew has started a Tumblr so we can all follow along with the production at home. This excites me more than Taco Tuesdays or Pizza Mon-Fridays.
Grant Morrison Is Bringing ‘DINOSAURS VS. ALIENS’ To Comics and Film. Mash-Up Snore.
Grant Morrison is bringing Dinosaurs Vs. Aliens to life. I couldn’t give no fucks about this. Maybe this is growing up. I’m no longer going to swag down the aisle with a comic in tow just because a favorite creator of mine is penning it. Maybe.
Russell Crowe Locked In For Aronofsky’s ‘NOAH’, Set To Film In July.
Russell Crowe seems like a sturdy son of a bitch who could both build something and drink too much. This makes him the perfect Noah, a factoid which didn’t escape Darren Aronofsky. The director has paused for long enough from directing J. Lo in nauseating Kohl’s commercials long enough to land a lead man for his bio-disaster-bibilical-journey Noah.

THIS WEEK ON The Walking Dead – Beside the Dying Fire
Piss the bed! It’s time to pack it in for our last 2min Redux of doom. AND what a barnburner!!! If every episode had this much action, I might actually return to liking the show again. Prolly not though, unless 80% the characters die grimtastic deaths for making me suffter, and are replaced by competent humans in season 3. But you can decide for yourself, as we lube it up nice, right after the jump.

First Teaser For Cronenberg’s COSMOPOLIS Puts Our Pattison Fears to Rest
For those of you who have been missing the David Cronenberg of yore – the kinky philosopher with a camera who brought the world The Brood, Videodrome, and Crash – the first teaser for Cosmopolis is here and it’s infused with flashes of physical taboos. I’ve enjoyed the hell out of Cronenberg’s output since he went “soft” with Eastern Promises up through last year’s A Dangerous Method, but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t eager for some more body-horror-kink.
