  1. Ever wonder what erotica written by Lovecraft would read like? Trolley No. 1852 is just that, an erotic tale written by Lovecraft (Edward Lee, actually). It is hilarious, dark and disturbingly hot.
  2. Only thing she's good for is being stuffed in a fridge.
  3. I had to considerably cut down due to finances so I've culled.

  4. I saw the pilot for Community last night and I kind of liked it. Great characters, good premise. I was worried Chevy Chase would be the lead. Not so. The season premiere of The Office was great. Loved the "Hardcore Parkour" intro. Especially Jim's line: "Parkour, internet sensation from 2004."
  5. The one thing that will go smoothly for this move is internet. I will have a new modem for a 1.5mbps connection in the next couple days that I will just be able to take with me. I currently have a connection that is up to 6Mbps but it fluctuates in quality. I will always have 1.5 now until they upgrade the service in the next year. We have cancelled our cable too. All in all, no cable, new phone plan, new internet and we're saving at least 60 bucks a month.
  6. Ha! I'm not the only one...
  7. See, I don't disagree with you at all there. It was a great and fun premise for a no frills horror flick. The first one was great. The second had one of my most favorite opening sequences of all time followed by 80 minutes of eye-rolling. The third? I watched the trailer and said "no." I too was freaked out by planes after FD.
  8. Well, they make a shitload of money... Also, I thought the first one was new for what it was and was very fun. The second was pretty bad but has cinema's very best car crash.

    Kanye's At It Again

    Why don't people shoot rappers anymore?
  10. Though I haven't heard anything positive about FD yet, besides "it's better than H2," I think going in expecting good acting and a story is pretty much a bygone conclusion. This series has never taken itself seriously (like Saw does) and from the very beginning was a self parody. You watch FD for the carnage and that's it. Well, that and trying to figure out how everyone's going to die by the various machinations leading up to their demise. I probably won't see it but I wouldn't expect anything more than that if I did. However, if it was between this and H2, I'd probably choose this.
  11. I was going to say those top three comments make it all worth watching.
  12. Aaaaa...Very Happy Birthday, to YOU! To who? To You!
  13. Thoughts in Earth-2.net: The Show 343 28 Days Later #1 Army of Darkness: Ash Saves Obama #1 Batman: The Widening Gyre #1 The Darkness / Pitt #1 Fantastic Four #570 Seaguy #1-3-Goddamn. Cameron Stewart is climbing higher and higher on my list of fave artists. Issue 2 is maybe my favorite single issue of the year and I think I've discovered somethign about Grant Morrison. He has decided not to hold hands anymore. He is writing for those willing to plunge and follow along and those who do so are rewarded in relation to the amount with which they were involved in the story. In this one, I was pretty involved. 10/10 Terror Inc. #1-5-Good, nasty fun. That's pretty much it. 7/10 Wolfskin Annual #1-Ellis has pretty much lost me at this point. 1/10 Wormwood: The Last Enemy-Shades of Preacher here. It's amazing I like a book so much with a protagonist who is so morally reprehensible. It's like reading Warren Ellis, written better. Not Ennis' best but nowhere near his worst. Almost as good as the original mini. 7/10 Batman and Robin #3-This is the best book coming out of DC right now. Dick IS Batman and Damien is far less annoying than he has been. 10/10 Blackest Night #2-Again, the best comic event ever. Why the fuck do I care so much about Aquaman's supporting cast? Geoff Johns. That's why. Ivan Reis too. 10/10 Blackest Night: Titans #1-A little plodding but when it gets down to it, it's great. Hawk is the best designed Black Lantern yet. 8/10 Blackest Night: Batman #1-Hi Deadman, thank you for reminding me why you are so awesome. Besides the fucking terrible in the Batmobile sequence, I liked the art fine. It's Tomasi who sells this one. Stoked to see how it plays out. 7/10 Green Lantern #45-Sinestro vs. Carol Ferris. Nuff said. Doug Mahnke is my favorite comic artist on a monthly book right now. Hands down, he's a master. 10/10 Green Lantern Corps #39-I should have read this before all of the others because it's good but it doesn't carry the impact the other tie-ins did. However, no one knows Rayner and Gardner like Tomasi and I stand behind that. 7/10 Total Comic books: 368 Trade paperbacks: 14 Graphic novels: 1 Jan 01-Aug 28=300 comics, 13 TPBs, 1 GN...Wednesday Comics #3, Wednesday Comics #4, Adventure Comics #1, Luke Cage Noir #1, Red Herring #1, Ultimate Comics Avengers #1, Batgirl #1, Blackest Night: Superman #1, Dominic Fortune #1, The Red Circle: The Web #1, Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1, Chew #1, Walking Dead #59-64, Viking #1, Broken Trinity #1-3, Broken Trinity: Witchblade #1, Broken Trinity: Aftermath #1, Fell #8-9, Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead #4, FVZA #1, newuniversal: Shockfront #1,2, newuniversal 1959, newuniversal Conqueror, Daredevil #116-119, Justice League of America #31, 32, Captain America Comics #1 70th Anniversary, The Human Torch Comics #1 70th Anniversary, Sub-Mariner Comics #1 70th Anniversary, Justice Society of America #25, 26, Simon Dark #18, The Flash Rebirth #1-3, Essential Man-Thing volume 1, 28 Days Later #1, Army of Darkness: Ash Saves Obama #1, Batman: The Widening Gyre #1, The Darkness / Pitt #1, Fantastic Four #570, Seaguy #1-3, Terror Inc. #1-5, Wolfskin Annual #1, Wormwood: The Last Enemy, Batman and Robin #3, Blackest Night #2, Blackest Night: Titans #1, Blackest Night: Batman #1, Green Lantern #45, Green Lantern Corps #39

    I'd send you my Deadman Slipcased collection to get signed if I thought you'd give it back to me...
  16. Except it pretty much has the same plot as JLA: Earth 2. Which kicked ass, by the way.

    I'm more interested in the BL Abin Sur.

    I think he's saying he killed Hitler by way of not saving him from eating a bullet. Hero's guilt and all.
