Nicholas Cage is kind of going through a weird time right now. I remember years ago when him being in a movie was a sign of the movie being at least some kind of quality. Then, at some point, it turned into the realization that these films weren’t actually good…just guilty pleasures. And then they […]
There’s a lot to talk about this week. Wayne got a new bed, Fear the Con’s coming up and – oh yes – comics! So gird your loins and join Aron, Paul, Tim and Wayne for our 79th weekly episode! Wayne saw the Green Hornet The Cape (Marvel) Amazing Spider-Man #651 (Marvel) Captain America: Man […]
One of the most pleasant surprises of last year’s television season was Starz’s Spartacus: Blood and Sand. It was visually arresting and violent, but also well written and acted, with some great writing. Who’da thunk that the producers of the Hercules and Xena TV shows would produce such an adult television show? Well, with main […]
Did anyone ever see the Captain America movie that went straight to video from 1990? Of course you did…you’re reading this website. Well, one thing that always bugged me about that movie (besides it sucking) was that Cap’s costume was always dirty. I mean, maybe the budget made it so they only had one suit…but […]

Just to give you an idea of how picky I am when it comes to movies, I may see 4 or 5 movies at the movie theater in a given year. So typically a trailer really has to move me to go see a movie. True Grit was that type of trailer. Jeff Bridges sounded […]
It was a sad week for comics. Not only did very little hit the stands for the first week of January 2011, but there was also very little in the way of quality in these books. But don’t despair, there were a couple of winners. Plus, we return to What If We Were Writing…? Join […]
The secret is at last revealed. You gotta be a science fiction writer if you wanna get laid.
