Doug Murray wrote The 'Nam. At least the early, good issues. Hama edited it. Golden drew the first 12 issues, all of which I recently purchased for 2 dollars. After Golden, the book becomes far more formulaic and less realistic, slowly building to issues that guest star the Punisher. Ugh.

The Mushroom Kingdom
And all the assorted other worlds that are attached to it via warp zone pipes or magical whistles, or possessed paintings or whatever. It's a wonderful place where gold coins float in the air, pirate ships can fly, no one will laugh at you for dressing like a raccoon, and eating certain kinds of…

NES DuckTales.

Can't Will Ferrell play one of the ducks? Ferrell, his head blown nearly in half by a bullet, bits of brain and skull poking out between his clenched fingers, screaming in unholy pain, pools of blood everywhere, crawling through the marsh searching for his lost eye while Will Arnett laughs and reloads his gun — that…

Dammit, it happened again. Why does everyone hate me?

Hello Pilgrim. Why do you hate me?

Gordon Lightfoot + Mountain = Pearl Jam

Freakazoid? That takes me back.

So, wait, why is this funny?
Because I don't remember a single joke in the picture, let alone something that I laughed at. Is it just because it's puppets, and they look ridiculous, and they go through the motions of a Bruckheimer/Bay-type movie? So if it had been human actors it wouldn't have been all that different…

Poor Jughead. It's going to take many a cheeseburger to get over this.

I would pay to see a Prince Valiant movie. Especially if they kept the hair, and especially if it was Tom Cruise.

Nabokov's reaction to Lolita was mostly positive. He said it was "first rate," anyway. He also said it was extremely painful for him to watch, but for someone who did such detailed, careful work (and who had spent six months writing a screenplay in the same vein, a screenplay that Kubrick hadn't used at all), I don't…

Mmm, it does go well with the chicken.

Failed thirdsies. Is that better than failed firsties or three times worse? Anyway, I can't bring myself to wish you any harm, so whatever.

Why thank you, OrangeCrush. I actually wanted to use the Generic Man from issue 2 as my avatar, but these icons are so tiny that it would have been unreadable, so I compromised.

Haven't seen the movie…
…but the novel is absolutely killer. Paul K said it had "the best dialogue in a tragedy since Shakespeare" and he was so right. Read it.

I think his style actually got better as he went on. His earlier films can be kind of rigid, but, after a lot of false starts in the sixties, his better seventies and eighties movies are much more fluid and lively.

Indeed, Karatloz, you must see the late Huston. The Man Who Would Be KIng is a film that everyone should see, regardless of their pretensions toward film snobbery, and The Dead is, no lie, Huston's best film. I keep hoping someone will put The Dead out on DVD in Region 1. Under the Volcano has some fine performances …

CHANGE PLACES!

Statements like "The Borg were better on Voyager" are grounds for dismissal from geekdom. What you meant was "the Borg were a huge fucking joke on Voyager, just like everything else about the show."
