RPGcat Episode 1: Risen
Ladies and Gentlemen, I am glad to announce the beginning of a new webseries, dedicated to wonderful and enlightening reviews of computer RPGs, brought to you by the one and only, the magnificent, the wise, the amazingly admirable… RPGcat! Yes, one of my secret projects has finally come to light. I mean, obviously I do [...]

Avatar wins
Avatar is now officially the most successful movie of all time. Now I just need to finish Phenomenon 32 so that I can write that long article that explains why this is a good thing, and why all the people who scream “racist!” the moment they see the film are pretty much racists themselves.

Dollhouse: The Hollow Men
Wow. It has been a spectacular journey, watching this show go from crappy to almost decent to interesting to total failure. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a show crash and burn this badly. Even the last episode of Battlestar Galactica had redeeming features. At least it made me feel better about bugs in Phenomenon [...]

Grrrrraaaaaargh
You know, this “Avatar is racist/Avatar is Dances with Wolves, but with aliens” shit is getting on my nerves so badly that it’s distracting me from finishing Phenomenon 32. Can no-one actually have a closer look at something and think before they speak? Basic logic and observation will show that the movie is pretty much [...]

AAAAAAAARGHbleurghvomitexplode
OK, so Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen really is the worst movie I have ever seen. Or at least in the bottom 3. It’s worse than Red Dawn, which is saying something. It’s racist, sexist, militarist, badly edited, badly written, badly acted, badly directed, boring and above all dumb. More when Commentarium returns/finally starts up [...]

A Short Message About What You Should Do
Go see Avatar, for God’s sake. It’s excellent. It’s beautiful, thoughtful, complex, intelligent, touching, and a lot of other adjectives. It’s probably going to piss off a lot of stupid people, so ignore what they tell you and go see it.

Two Things About The Humans
Our friend Sebastian visited us yesterday, and there are two awesome things from last evening that I wanted to share: The first is The Man from Earth, a movie written by Jerome Bixby (his last work, in fact, completed on his deathbed) and directed by Richard Schenkman. It’s a very simple story: a teacher quits [...]
