The Geek Revolution Talks Draft!

With the WWE Draft coming up at the end of the month, three of the guys here, the ones who are dweeby enough to write about professional wrestling (Oh, I’m sorry…sports-entertainment) pitch in their two cents about this supposed massive WWE roster upheaval.

German Coast Guard

This is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while. I hope you find it just as amusing as I do.

 

Too Good To Pass Up.

Now, I don’t normally do this, as I prefer to use my own material… but like the title says this is too good to pass up. I’d like to spread the word. I don’t know who Kabal is… but thank you. Oh God, thank you.

I love Angel: After The Fall! (Warning: SPOILER ALERT)

I’ve never been much of a fan of comic book versions of TV shows. A lot of them are good, of course, but they usually don’t capture the essence of what makes the show or the movie they’ve been based upon really well. The Star Wars comics that Dark Horse put out, while some of them are interesting, pretty much usually comes off as merely poor spin-offs are obvious attempts to cash in on the success of their derivative titles.

That being said, after only four issues in, I am completely addicted to Angel: After The Fall, the comic book series that picks up where the TV series left off. Everyone knows how bonkers I am about the entire Buffyverse, and finding out that their stories would continue on in my favorite medium just made me cream my pants. (Moderately, cause I never picked up the Buffy Season 8 comic book. As much as I love those Sunnydale people, I always thought Angel was the superior show in almost every aspect.)

My Problem With Babel

I hate Babel. I only got to watch the movie last night and I thought it sucked. Before I tell you why I thought it sucked, I’d like to say that this is my opinion and my opinion alone. If you liked the movie and hate the things I’m about to say about it, then go write your own review of the film. I don’t care if you agree with me or not. But don’t go hatin’ on what I’m about to write for everyone has a right to like/dislike a movie.

Why didn’t I like the movie? It’s not because of the nudity, the unshaved vagina or the stereotypes. Hell, I didn’t even have any problems with the subtitles. I’m not that shallow.

I didn’t like it because everyone in the flick were acting stupid. All except for Brad Pitt’s family.

I like movies with one general tragedy. That’s how movies work. You have the main character and his tragedy. You watch the movie so that you’ll see how he resolves that issue. Now some movies have one tragedy then from there on, other tragedies will take place. But it’s still in line of the main tragedy and eventually, the protagonist (or in some cases, the antagonist) will get his resolve.

But in this movie, the main character suffers a tragedy and from there we get a worldwide repercussion of a small incident. To me, the concept of the whole movie is too far fetched. I guess my problem starts and ends in the storyline.
