I have to thank fistofnathan for this trailer for a film about Yip Man, probably best known for being Bruce Lee's Wing Chun instructor.

Incidentally, that got me to this badass trailer for Ong Bak 2. BRUTAL!

So, it's getting around to that time of year again. An email will also go out to those I know who've attended before and I've invited before, but if you don't get one and are interested in attending, please let me know! It'll be a night of geekery, with plenty of gaming (both at the tabletop and in front of televisions on electronic video game ( Read more... )

This comic lampooning prejudiced suspension of disbelief actually speaks to something that bugs me sometimes.
