I finally got around to watching There Will Be Blood today. Last year I watched the first hour, but wasn't in the right mindset to finish it. Ever since, I've been meaning to finish it, and I'm glad I did. Now that it's over, however, I have no idea what to think of it ( Read more... )

Since I recently wrote about Dance in the Vampire Bund, it may have convinced some of you to check it out. And having finally read it (or at least nine volumes of it), I can assure you it's well worth your time. Now take all of the awesomeness in the manga, systematically remove it, and replace it with complete ass. Now you have the anime. For ( Read more... )

Just finished watching Cell 211, a jaw-dropping thriller from Spain. A prison guard reports for his first day on duty, and while being shown around the place ends up knocked unconscious just in time for a prison riot. Locked inside, he's forced to think at the speed of light to save his skin. You may think you've seen this film before. You ( Read more... )

Only Living Witness was one of the greatest bands I've ever heard, and also one of the most criminally unsung. Many of their small cult following would have sacrificed a limb for them to have released just one more record. Their early work contained some of the heaviest songs imaginable, but only on their second album "Innocents" did it become ( Read more... )

I'm not really a TV watcher, since I can't ever bother to actually sit down and watch anything on a regular basis. My wife, however, loves that shit. So my TV shows of the moment are pretty much whatever she watches. Hey, I even like some of it. Case in point: I've always had a soft spot for "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic". It's ( Read more... )

Since I'm not going to be able to catch "2001: A Space Odyssey" in 70mm at the Seattle Cinerama, I thought that Friday night would be a good night to watch it on Netflix on a nice TV in a dark room. So I queued up the movie (which I'd never actually sat down and watched), started watching it and everything was going great. Monkeys found the ( Read more... )

Just got back from a long hard day at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo. To be accurate, I only spent about 2 or 3 hours in Portland, and another six driving there and back. It was completely worth it for two reasons. Firstly, I could only handle a few hours in that place because of how incredibly hot, crowded, busy and awesome it was, so I left ( Read more... )

I picked up volumes 2, 6, 7, and 8 of Dance in the Vampire Bund at Borders' going out of business sale, and it is cool as all hell. I've read part of volume 2, but stopped because it was just that awesome, and I want to start from the beginning now. From what I gather, it's about Japan establishing a special district for Vampires, who have ( Read more... )
