All I Said Was…

So much for On the Lot… It start out fairly strong – then turned into a bizarre American Idol clone with movies – then the results show…yikes. The host is certainly no Ryan Seacrest – awkward, shouty and without the smooth skills needed to handle an hour long voting results show. Very abrupt in some [...]

I suppose it had to, now we just have to see what happens as Carrie Fisher and Garry Marshall jockey to see who can become Paul Abdul. Unless the short subject has anything to do with toilet humor or gives the impression of mocking the mentally challenged – then all bets are off. Last night [...]

Today is one of the holiest days of Geekdom – the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars. George Lucas should be proud – two and a half good movies out of a series of six isn’t bad these days, really (The original trilogy, minus the Ewok bits from Return of the Jedi). Actually, the visuals of [...]

Like he has a chance at winning American Idol tonight. But wouldn’t it be nice? However, after last night’s performance, Jordin seemed to have it all buttoned up for a clean victory. I guess it didn’t hurt that the final song they both sung was tailor made for Jordin (and as a side note, it’s [...]

So this morning as I woke up I wondered what I would write about today, just to keep some semblance of momentum going before I leave for The Trip of a Lifetime (which, as should come as no surprise, has been delayed). I considered talking about the new Goldfinger DVD I started to watch over [...]

Uncle Ben is dead.2. Thomas and Martha Wayne are dead.3. Krypton exploded.4. Bucky is dead. Without these deaths, Spider-Man, Batman, [...]

…and pointed them right at Blake Lewis. Last night’s American Idol was disco night. Or BeeGees night. Or something. Sean Connery was on hand to provide guidance this week to the final four contestants. Oh, wait…no, that was Barry Gibb. Never mind. The first four performances of the night got so-so reviews from the judges. [...]

Just a test of image uploading. Our test here has two cult favorite Justice League International members Booster Gold and Blue Beetle from DC Direct. Oh, and Booster Gold’s flying robot computer pal, Skeets. The Blue Beetle figure has been out for a while and for a bit was going for a pretty penny on [...]

A math question: What is the answer to Booster Gold + Teth Adam + Ralph Dibney + Steel + The Question + Renee Montoya + Adam Strange + Animal Man + Starfire + Dr. Will Magnus and a supporting cast of thousands? Answer: 52 Or rather, 52 – the weekly series from DC. Weekly. For [...]
