LEAKED: Amazon’s GAMING CONTROLLER. Set-Top Box, Get!

Ugly.

Amazon’s getting into the gaming business. We’ve sort of known that for a while. But like the sneaking suspicion that I caught herpes from that really good looking homeless dude behind 7-Eleven, the proof is in the cock sores. Listen, this metaphor worked in my head. Shh.

Hit the jump for more pictures. Some details. Stuff.

Opinions Vary: Why I Read Real Books

Books.

When you pick up a novel, you basically know what you’re going to get: some characters, a setting or two, probably some discernible overriding theme—you know, the bare necessities of storytelling. These components are in any narrative concoction; whether it’s good or not is usually all a matter of mixing it up the right way. And there in the middle, moving them all about in some dramatically interesting fashion, is the conflict. Conflict can be a make-or-break element because a story’s clashes and bashes and gnashes propel everything and really make the story come to life. But for me there’s an even more primary conflict attached to this whole process, one that exists outside story itself: summoning the strength to actually pick up the novel to read in the first place. And, if you don’t mind, this conflict is what I’d like to investigate here today.

QUE? Bucky’s Marvel Movie Contract is Longer Than Cap America’s.

Bucky!

It turns out that Sebastian Stan’s (Bucky…and well, don’t IMDB if you don’t want to know) Marvel movie contract is longer than Chris Evans’. At first blush this seems confusing as Hell. Especially to someone who is a comics outsider. However, fans of Ed Brubaker’s run on Captain America (HI! IT MAKES MY DONG FROTH IN WAYS THAT DEFY ONTOLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS) know how this could work. In a glorious, glorious way.

Hit the jump for (what I hope) is accurate speculation.

FX announces ‘LOUIE’ RETURN DATE. Absurdist Misery Incoming!

Louie

Louie. Louis CK. Ya’ll both been gone from my television-set for a while now. I appreciate the the hiatus, and I appreciate that FX let you take it. You’ve been taking your time, refining your shit. Nothing worse than trying to force material if it ain’t there. However, there has been a pall without you. So I’m fucking stoked to see that you’re returning soon. Soon!

IT’S ON: ‘CAPTAIN AMERICA 3’ and ‘BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN’ DROPPING ON SAME DAY.

Captain America

Yo. Fuck Batman Vs. Superman. In 2016 we’re finally getting Marvel vs. DC. A couple of days ago, Kevin Feige had chuckled. Hocked up what sounded like phlegm, and spit out what look like a nail. He had been asked if Marvel was going to movie their at the time Unnamed Movie away from its May 6, 2016 date. You see, that’s the day Batman vs. Superman was dropping. Not only is Marvel not moving their moving, they’re dropping a fucking hammer that day (or is it a shield?).

I love this.

Oklahoma news station “accidentally” cuts evolution from ‘COSMOS.’

IDK man

I still haven’t caught the first episode of Cosmos (slow your roll, it’s on the digital-video-recorder next to Workaholics, and Pork Pie Fluids Gluttony, okay? I’m getting to it), but apparently there’s a small mention of evolution. This small little spattering of evolution is something that I will see in my eventual watching. However some folks in Oklahoma won’t be able to thanks to an “accidental” promo that ran over it.

Google removes underlined links. My teenage spirit wails.

The Internet!

Google has gone ahead and removed the underlined links from their search results. It’s a knife into the gut of my teenage years. Such links! So Geocities. Fuck, man. Time waits for no one, especially the Old Internet. Where format was madness, everyone had a website with their own noodlings, and I could find a fucking link by looking for the underlined text.
