Neil Gaiman is writing episodes of the ‘American Gods’ adaptation
Neil Gaiman is writing episodes of the American Gods adaptation for Starz. Which makes a lot of sense to me. I mean, how do you instill faith in an understandably cautious fanbase regarding an adaptation? You bring in the source material’s creator. Well, at least that instills faith in me.
Watch: Mario remade in Unreal Engine 4 is uncanny, gorgeous, uncomfortable
We’ve come a long way baby, #FatBoySlim, whatever.
Bethesda letting fan pay for ‘Fallout 4’ with bottle caps. 2,200 bottle caps.
Good Guy Bethesda letting a fan buy Fallout 4 with bottle caps. Good Guy Bethesda generating some positive buzz for themselves. Not like they need it. Everyone is slushy-groined over Fallout 4 (or GTFO). But why not capitalize on the good will and keep it going? However, may I suggest an additional means of generating good will? Let me pre-order the fucking Pip-Boy edition of the game for PS4! Fuck! Shit! Ass!
Tyrese Gibson pretty much confirms he’s going to be a Green Lantern; teases SDCC announcement
Like, how is this not an actual confirmation?
‘Daredevil’ Season 2 is being described as Daredevil vs. The Punisher
Daredevil season two is being billed as The Man Without Fear versus The Punisher. Some are claiming that Big Pun is the “Big Bad” of the season, but that seems a bit erroneous. I imagine the two crime fighting motherfuckers are going to have the same goal: eradicating scum bags. It is their means of execution that is going to have them butting heads. (Mainly that the Punisher will be literally executing the pieces of shit.)
Weekend Open Bar: Dismembermentship Has Its Perks
Oh fuck! It’s been a hell of a day, and that’s why I’m late opening the bar. (Why was it late, Ian?) I’m glad you asked! I’ll tell you! SAM-OMEGA and myself went to see a house today, as we are (were?) hunting for a new abode. And what began as a viewing snowballed into a four-hour extravaganza that ended in us having an offer accepted! So fuck! I’m on my way to thirty years of Debt Slave toiling. And I’m excited about it! But even if the grind gets too much (SEGUE!!!) from Monday through Friday, I’ll always have the Weekend Open Bar.
Opinions Vary: ‘The Dark Knight’ trailer is incontrovertibly the best trailer ever. Ever.
Welcome back to Opinions Vary where the opinions aren’t serious and that is good because they are fucking dreadful. Best is a great word. Because just like “terrorist” and “overrated”, it means absolutely nothing other than what the author intends. And even they don’t know what it means half the time, textually flopping around like a fish out of ontological water.
So I must rise above that ambiguity. I must install a concretized, unassailable definition of “best.” That’s what I must do for this polemic to work. Yes, I must. But I will fail. So when I say The Dark Knight has the best trailer of all time, this is what I mean: I wanted to open a discussion about trailers. Specifically rad ones. And when I thought “dick-stiffening trailer”, the first two-minute advertisement that sprung to mind was the one for TDK.
