  1. I'm sorry, I'm just a little surprised by the fact that Marvel is actually doing something intelligent to promote the comics when movies are coming out...
  2. Wow...thanks CV. I was just so damn happy to not have my expectations ruin a perfectly good movie again. It's nice to be pleasantly surprised once in a while. Of course the problem with my review is that I hope it hasn't oversold the movie to those who haven't seen it.
  3. I'm not fucking around or paying lip service, guys. If a better horror film comes out this year I'll be surprised. I believe the curent date for a theatrical release is March 16th for those of you near a large urban centre but it won't be in theatres long so the DVD release shouldn't be too long after that. I'll be buying a copy for the commentary alone!
  4. 1337 This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard:
  5. i have no idea what that means either...fill me in.
  6. hehe! That made my day. Wife and baby are doing fine and big brother is at daycare. I'm actually working on some Reel Dread right now. Thanks for all the nice comments guys and especially Yoda for the mainpage thing, Meg loved it.
  7. Don't mind at all. In fact scroll down to see pics of big brother if you like. Thanks for all the well wishes guys. No sleep last night and none expected tonight. I forgot how hard the first few days was. Maybe I blocked it out... Reel Dread will be up and running by next week.
  8. Naw...she was out walking around the neighbourhood with our neighbour making sure it wasn't false labour. She had her first contraction at around 7pm last night and our new son, Davin John Reddick, was born by 11:30pm! Mom and baby are healthy and I just came home to have a shower and pick up big brother to go back to the hospital while mom and baby sleep. I'll put a pic up soon enough. Thanks!
  9. on our way to the hospital pretty quick. wish me luck...

    Yes. I smell indisputable ass-kickery. Although I'm interested in these sentient boobs firghting werewolves...any news on production?
  11. Sweet! I am psyched to check this one out James!
  12. Bonus points for the first person to mention the license plates on Hiro's dad's car...
  13. Is anybody actually on second Life? I started up and got going but it's pretty stupid if you ask me. Fly around and talk to people who hate noobies. It's damn near impossible to find anything. anyone?
  14. Thanks James! You should also thank Yoda, I think he put the Ichi the Killer reference in the opening paragraph, not me. I'm all pretentious and think everybody knows about Miike. I was a little leary about writing this review as it was less analytical about the genre and more of a review that almost nobody would go and buy from reading that even though it was favorable. Maybe I'll do an analytical thing on Buck and Cerda's work later on down the line. Next week, however, will be a review that everybody has to read and take my advice on.... OOOHHHH: teaser!
  15. Did you get the email with the newest RD?
  16. Yeah I tried that "porn for research" thing too. It didn't go over well
  17. I'm betting is darkened & part leather. Seems to be the norm now. And shiny. Don't forget shiny. With fake nipples? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Well played sir!
  18. To me it seems like WW is built for the comics and animated stuff. Being so imposing and being the world's most beautiful woman makes a live action film sketchy at best. Plus, I don't want to see a modernized update of her costume.
  19. I've got to say that I'm in no way interested in a WW movie. I like the character but, even with Whedon involved, I can't fathom a movie being anything but pure cheese.
  20. Yay! You're back. It'll be a few days before I can listen to this one but glad to see stuff is back on track.
  21. Totally unacceptable Whatever dude, you gots ta get paid. If it helps with hosting and all that then why not? I'll even click on a link or two on occasion!
  22. Thanks cvskin! Freddy might be a little less linear (maybe a little shorter). It is doubtful for next week but it will be very soon. Your writing is really great and always provides good reading. It's inspiring me to get off my ass and finish my retrospect on EC comics. I'd be totally interested in reading that! I love that old EC stuff. If I had some FU money I'd be buying those archives but, alas, I do not. Thanks again for the comments and don't be a stranger. I need all the criticism I can get...especially the good kind
  23. They can't change that when it's their fault? Fuck. Your bank sucks! Bankers are bottom feeders. Chastising and punishing you for mistakes whether it was you who made them or not. More importantly: Congratulations!!!
  24. Thanks cvskin! Freddy might be a little less linear (maybe a little shorter). It is doubtful for next week but it will be very soon.
