If only he could finish writing an ending. But any Stephenson adaptation (except maybe a seven-season HBO series of the Baroque Cycle) is going to end up kind of going "ffft" at the climax, or just cutting to credits when the audience is expecting an epilogue. (I love his stuff too, despite the rushed endings.)

Sidney Poitier as Black Panther.

"…they croak!"

Kurt Cobain, in some kind of psycho role.

Perfect casting, for a movie whose mere existence might summon Kt'aarn and devour the earth.

Well here we are, busily typing away on it. The hype machine is working! No publicity is bad publicity! People will continue to pay for franchises out of nonsensical devotion for ever and ever as long as there is a spectacle to be made!

"My one true love, the woman who taught me the beauty of monogamy, was a fembot all along."

The AV Club

Another shitty movie that's going to make a billion dollars, reinforcing Hollywood's play it safe strategy and leading to fewer actually decent or awesome movies in the future. Shit! Shit! Shit!

That era was so great.

Progressive difficulty is pretty cool. The first Max Payne game was so good thanks to that constant near-losing tension. My friend kept reloading whenever he took any damage and the game difficulty slowly ramped up until it became nearly impossible.

Playing so much Invisible, Inc. I bought it during the last Christmas Steam sale and only got around to it this week: WOW! What a fantastic game. I know it got some coverage because I had heard about it enough to be interested, but where were the GotY nominations? Maybe I just didn't hear them. Maybe it's the short…

It's not just the line. The line reading is indicative of how Gambon's interpretation of the character clashed with book Dumbledore, and his predecessor (Harris)'s portrayal. Harris was Dumbledore, while Gambon did his own thing, saying there's "no point reading the books" to understand the character. So the line…

So boring!

In NFL 2K I kicked a 'field goal attempt' directly into the arms of a teammate, who ran it in for a touchdown.

What was I thinking? Superman! Superman. Heh. And I typed it twice!

Cunning plan for DC: Cancel Batman and Spider-Man. Lose a little revenue but make up for it as people are forced to find other titles to read. Then once those other titles have gained readers, relaunch Batman and Spider-Man, rake it in.

22 seconds in and nothing has happened so I stopped watching
