‘Wonder Woman’ movie picks up “Interstellar’ cinematographer
Holy futz. Wonder Woman has snagged Hoyte Van Hoytema as its cinematographer. Which means that this movie is going to be goddamn unflinchingly beautiful, regardless of its other qualities. This makes me very, very excited.

Tuesday Afternoon Commute: #infinity is an illusion
I’ve spent the last week wondering what the fuck I’m doing. Let me tell you — the life of an adjunct is brutal. I stand a mere seven days away from starting a semester, and I don’t know what classes I’m teaching. How many, what time, their subject level. And I stand and I gaze into myself and I wonder why I put myself through such rigors. Every semester. The answers are obvious but when you’re stressed, when you have a haunting sense of not pulling your share of the financial weight, when you have a new mortgage, they seem to evaporate before they have any chance of distilling into anything appreciable.
Lord, I don’t know.
Art: Deadpool v Harley Quinn by Ramon Villalobos in ‘Netflix and Kill’
Just Ramon Villalobos. Being awesome as usual. With gorgeous inks by Frank Stone. All about this is lovely, in a murderous, homicidal sort of way.
‘Halo 5: Guardians’ Opening Cinematic: Nathan Fillion’s Spartan Race
Truthfully, I ain’t watching this. I know it’s somewhat contradictory, since I seem to indulge in every spoiler ever. But, I don’t know. Why watch an out-of-context opening cinematic for a game I’m sweating? I can wait the less-than-two-months. How about you? Are you going to peep this cinematic? Are you going to play Halo 5?
Kevin Feige gains more control over Marvel Studios after company restructuring
I clearly am not up to date with my Marvel Studios Backstage Machinations. I, perhaps naively, just sort of assumed Kevin Feige did what he wanted when it came to the studio. But apparently he was like, answering to some guy. That he didn’t like. But now he isn’t? Is this a good thing? I don’t know. As I said. I am clearly not up to date with the machinations. But I trust Feige, so wee. How do you feel about it?
Amazon Prime now allows for offline playback; dope is dope
Pretty dope development coming out of Camp Amazon. The company’s Prime service is allowing users now to download television shows and movies on its Amazon Video app. That means them long-ass flights will be more bearable through media-based buoying. No wireless connection? No problem. Shitty wireless connection? Don’t even fuck with it.
Cosplay: Lilith from ‘Borderlands 2’
I will never not-post any Borderlands cosplay that passes across my ocular-meat-lenses.
‘Uncharted 4’ drops March 18th, 2016
We finally have a Uncharted 4 release date. The fourth installment of the series that made the PS3 (and PS4) a must buy for me has been in development for like, futzing ever. It’s gotten delayed, lost a considerable amount of its staff, but whatever. Water under the cosmic bridge or something. It’s real, it’s got a release date, I’m hyped.
‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ gets February 2016 release date and “tiered” preorder bonuses
Oh dear. Preorder gaming promotions have leveled up. Evolved. Let’s scratch for the moment the fact that I’m very excited for the next Deus Ex. Instead, let’s focus on what could be a truly nefarious (albeit sadly rewarding) preorder scheme launched by Square Enix.
