On paper, Teen Wolf is a great concept: a teenage werewolf who accidentally outs himself seeks acceptance from his friends. In execution, however, things fall apart, and it's up to Jenny and Mike to make sense out of it. [ 2:15:15 || 61.9 MB ]

While most, including myself, will view Kirby's legacy as one of dynamic movement and grandiose majesty, there is absolutely no denying the sheer magnitude of iconic characters he created at various comic publishers. Kirby's hallmark, as fully realized in his DC work, is wild and colorful character design. No one creates a character that looks like Kirby's unless they are blatantly ripping him off (RE: Larsen, Erik). In this edition of The King and I, I have compiled a list of the top 10 wildest, craziest and most colorful of Kirby's creations. And, surprisingly, it doesn't include a giant dog with a tuning fork on his forehead!

Though it might have reshaped how the world saw Batman, and led directly to the creation of Batman: The Animated Series, Tim Burton's Batman (1989) is a seriously flawed film with bland characters, numerous plot holes and a Batman who has no qualms about killing. Let the ranting begin! [ 3:08:35 || 86.3 MB ]

Sprung fully formed from the mind of Stephen J. Cannell, The Greatest American Hero is a dramedy about Ralph Hinkley, a Los Angeles remedial education teacher who's given a superhero costume by aliens. Why? Hell, it was 1981. We were lucky to get that much explanation. Anyway, along for the ride is Robert Culp as FBI Agent Bill Maxwell, an overly enthusiastic commie-hunter. He was ostensibly there to guide Ralph toward missions, but, really, it was so we could have the obligatory sensitive liberal / conservative jackass debates that were federally mandated by the Bickering Mismatched TV Partners Act of 1976. The only other person in on the secret is Pam Davidson, Ralph's girlfriend and attorney in his court battle to secure custody of his son, Plot Device. No, wait. Sorry, his name's Kevin.

Battling against technology itself, Ian and Adham brave the pinnacle of Sean Connery's run as Bond: You Only Live Twice. Along the way, they debate the vitally important shag count, marvel at particular aspects of Eastern culture and are bowled over by both feedback and a voicemail! [ 2:29:51 || 68.5 MB ]

Take the rather crazy director of Excel Saga and Puni Puni Poemy and get him hooked on The Blues Brothers. The end result is the outrageous and hilarious anime musical comedy Nerima Daikon Brothers. [30:07 || 13.7 MB ]

Having recently devoured the first four seasons of its revival, you could say I've been on a bit of a Doctor Who kick lately. The action is fast, the characters are strong, the storytelling is smart and the depth is astounding. Best of all, though each season features an overall storyline, every episode is the perfect starting point for new viewers. And that's done without burdening longtime fans with "we know this already" exposition. If you're not watching Doctor Who -- for fear of not knowing the rich continuity, you're put-off by science fiction, you're afraid the sets are still made of cardboard or whatever your reason -- you really should give the show a try. It's wonderfully engaging television that can pack breakneck action, high suspense and tragic drama all into 60-minute bites. However, if you don't have access to the Sci Fi Channel or BBC America, or you're still worried that the show isn't for you, there's another way you can treat yourself to the good Doctor, and that's by reading Doctor Who: The Forgotten.

Des is back! As always, he and Mike reviewed five comic books (Dead of Night Featuring Devil-Slayer #1, Marvel Apes #1, Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane #2, Sub-Mariner: The Depths #1 and Venom: Dark Origin #2), but one of them was so bad it put the duo in a foul mood for the rest of the show.

If you've been paying close attention to the video game industry recently, you might have heard about Braid. Developer Jonathan Blow has been working on the project independently for close to three years, but could a seemingly simple puzzle / platformer programmed by one man really live up to the hype?
