So does anybody else here adore the quintessential, often villainous, always smirking actor Richard E. Grant, whose appearance livens up any production lucky enough to have him?
It was a dark time in these days of season six. So many missed connections, so many people who were this close to getting it together, only to have the gods Benioff and Weiss look down, and in their displeasure, force them apart.
What the hell, Game of Thrones?
Welcome back to the worst recap on the interwebs, where it’s all game, all thrones, all the time, and now we have all the feels on top of everything else, because now that it’s all systems go for Benioff and Weiss, we have all the plot. Seriously, back in the days when we were following the books it would have taken…
So my sister is in a unique living situation, but suffice to say, she is currently unable to watch Game of Thrones. As I would never see someone suffer in this way without stepping up to their aid, I have chosen to do terrible, terrible recaps for her on this, my old blog.
I went to see Interstellar tonight. I sat in the back row of a crowded theater, wrapped in my jacket, and watched. And after all of the three hours and periodic nail biting, I can only say:
Today in news of the undead: Robert Kirkman's Image Comics imprint Skybound has teamed up with Wizard World, Inc. to shower the comic lovers of the world with free copies of The Walking Dead comic, complete with exclusive variant covers.
Wizard World Comic-con is coming to San Antonio for the first time this summer (cue the sound of thousands of nerds rejoicing)! The local alt-newspaper San Antonio Current has been on board from the beginning with convention season features, like one about anime convention San Japan and another about local cosplayers.
I am a grown-ass woman. I have seen comic book movies — oh, so many comic book movies. I was one of the most excited teenagers in the world when the first X-Men hit screens, and was equal parts thrilled and disappointed with the result, but hey, who wasn't? I've faithfully watched and bought them all, even against my…
GODDAMMIT KIDS THESE DAYS.
Watching The Amazing Spiderman 2 is more of a complicated enterprise than I had originally thought. Believe me, it's not a sentence I write lightly.
I hear things are getting a little heated over your Wondercon shirt. You incited one Greg Rucka to write an angry response over the sexist nature of your shirt design. Your response was that A) there was a fanboy version, too, so it's not sexist, and B):
I'm doing the thing, guys. The thing I KNEW I was going to do. And told myself not to do. AND I'M STILL DOING IT. I'm like Ubertrout with horrible junky snackfoods. CAN'T STOP.
This week I'm part of a committee responsible for planning a new high school layout. Basically, the idea is: if we can raze the school to the ground (which is going to happen) how can we rebuild the school to make the best 21st century school we can?
Unless you never ever ever go on the Internet or have never heard of Tumblr or Twitter, you are probably aware that NBC's Hannibal has a rabid, devoted fandom, and rightly so. In terms of a series that is worth being added to the Lecter Canon, few could ask for more than the riveting duo of Mads Mikkelsen and Hugh…
If you want to know what teens are thinking, I've learned the best way to do it is simple: ask them.
One of the things about celebrity deaths is that it's hard, sometimes, to express how sad it can make you. We all know we are talking about someone we probably never met, but who, for whatever reason through whatever role, made our lives better. Made us smile. Made us think. Made us remember them.
Sometimes I feel like Schrodinger's teacher. I'm both good, and bad, at teaching, and there's no way to figure out which it is.
Guys, how do you do it?
