I played it for the first time tonight at a friend’s house before D&D. I find it… alright. I can’t say I wouldn’t be willing to put in more time and see if it gets more enjoyable when I suck less, but yeah, not really doing it for me right now.

I know parody superheroes isn’t their normal bag, but sheerly for the number of awesome supervillain parodies in the series, The Venture Bros.’s small stable of parody superheroes deserve some credit. Folks like Captain Sunshine, Brown Widow, and maybe the Impossible Family (depending on whether you count them. On the…

Depends: Modern Cardiff? 21,032 AD Cardiff? Victorian Cardiff? High-tech alien simulation meant to resemble modern Cardiff but with subtle differences that, at first, only the Doctor notices and will wait waaaaaay too long to point out to anyone else?

“Yes, once I got into power and got all the classified briefings, I learned to really love the *ahem* fictional accounts of the exploits of a top secret military base experimenting with alien technologies, liberating slaves on far-off planets, and making contact with intelligent aliens. Fictional. Absolutely…

Well, yeah, if you just want to give an answer and insult the troll a little bit. As I said at least once in one of the many, many responses I got (in retrospect, maybe I don’t want to be famous or noteworthy in any way. One comment that explodes is exhausting enough), sometimes, you just have to disregard the “Don’t…

Alternative theory: The sci-fi/spy-thriller/Dan Brown stuff makes the conspiracy theories entertaining when they would otherwise be depressing (to those who actually believe them).

Well, I was going to go Rowlet, but my ISP recently cracked down on my stealing movies and TV shows, and if Brionne’s “Torrent” ability can help me get around that, well, let’s just say I really need to watch Luke Cage without asking my roommates for their Netflix password…

If the Jumanji video game they’re playing isn’t a bad Gauntlet Legacy ripoff full of offensive tropes like killing endangered species and ridiculous native stereotypes, I’m going to be very disappointed in this movie that I’m honestly probably not going to end up seeing anyways.

I’m calling it now: We’re going to be hearing this song again in Mute:

Well, Mr Giacchino, how do you spell “pressure”?

The most recent trade of Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples’ Saga. The whole series has been phenomenal and is well-worth checking out.

To me, it kinda makes it look unsafe for geeks…

It’s such a minor detail, and I’m guessing not anything anyone cares enough to decide the canonicity of anymore*, but R4-P17 is totally an R4-unit whose head got replaced with that of an R2 unit after an accidental crushing of her original head.

The Agent missed the Moon and hit 67p instead. Lucky us…

Paranormal investigation comedy, you say? Well, just like every other time something tangentially related succeeds or gets greenlit, let me (once again) be the first to say that this is a sign someone needs to take a shot at a more faithful adaptation of The Dresden Files. Please?
