@Al Swearengen hates cocksuckers v2: There's absolutely nothing wrong with the ending to the Dark Tower saga. If you've read the books more than once, King makes evident that the journey is more important than the conclusion.

I've heard worse reasons to go back and get my master's degree.

@CoffinDodger (If the typos crap. Blame my keyboard): But only in Soviet Russia.

@tetracycloide: Having only 140 characters to play with is no excuse for using bad grammar — though millions of people no doubt think otherwise. Damn, I hate Twitter.

Loved her in Quantum of Solance, but the line "He wants me to meet for 'Aliens: The Remake', or something," really turns my stomach. Wouldn't you do some research on the film you're "interviewing" for before before tweeting some gibberish about it.

The photos almost look like conceptual art. Awesome material. I also pity the work crews who had to build this stuff.

If I were the owner of a NYC apartment building and I found these guys building a giant griffin on my roof, I'd say, "Have at it!"

I don't know what I'd do if I saw one of those in real life. Probably throw a rock at it.

It's clearing use in a harness, just like Bear Grylls in every episode of Man vs. Wild.

That's some serious LARPing. Seriously, are we looking at a movie set?

Awesome article!

@David L Reinke: Agreed on both the long form treatment and the part about it being a noble failure. What I never understood: black stillsuits?! You chose the one color that absorbs sunlight?!

Good news, everyone! Now I'll get access to even more books that I barely have time to read.

@Palmerlime: Ditto. Still, I think the best adaptation we're likely to get is the Sci-Fi Channel miniseries. This will probably get me a lot of flak, but I hated the David Lynch film.

@OMG! British Dinosaur!: Regardless of theories about the cyclical nature of the environment, global warming, et. al., it still makes logical sense to not foul our waters, contaminate our soil or otherwise destroy habitats that are beneficial to our species — even benefits (medical, etc.) that we may not have…

"Everybody wins!"

Amazing work!

Incredible stuff. Duke is very talented.

@mrgibblechip: It would certainly be cheaper.
