  • YouTube – GREMLINS FAN FILM – Gremlins 3 Warmup

    This is just amazing! In Gremlins 2, there is a scene where the film breaks. This fan proposes an alternate sequence that could be used for the home theatre audience!

  • DC Comics is now DC Entertainment…and Levitz is out!

    First Marvel gets bought by Disney.  Now DC Comics becomes DC Entertainment. Is this the first step towards the death knell for the comic book?  It sure seems as if both companies are more focused on pitching comic projects as new media.  (I would like to see a live action DC product BESIDES Batman!)

  • FIXED! Alan Kistler’s Guide to Doctor Who

    I have corrected all of the broken links in Alan Kistler’s Guide to Doctor Who. I’m sure the individual profiles will have broken links, but at least the master guide works!

  • New tag added

    I have gone through the archives and added the tag “Alan Kistler Profiles” to every Guide and Profile that Alan ever did for us. I figured I owed it to Alan because when I moved the blogs around I broke all of the links that Alan had painstakingly added to his articles and to WikiPedia,…

  • Disney acquires Marvel Comics for $4B?

    Reportedly, Disney has purchased Marvel Comics for 4 billion dollars. In related news, “Spider-Man 4” is now filming, with Spidey battling the evil Dr. Flubber.

  • Game Review: “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” for the Wii

    Most of us are acquainted with the idea that the video games tied in to motion pictures are lesser offerings, often budget-priced mini-games.   In this case, however, the video game version of “G.I. JOE: The Rise of Cobra” is a direct sequel to the movie with an original plotline that picks up where the movie…

  • “Offline” indeed

    I was reading this archived message board post about how Nightcrawler was created. Why? I was learning more about Dave Cockrum and had found a link to it. This message board post from 2002 is Dave’s write-up about how he first conceived of Nightcrawler, pitched it to DC as a member of the Legion, and…

  • Free Destructoid stuff during Twitter Party on Friday!

    I’m passing this along from my friend at Rocket XL: We just set up a Twitter party with Destructoid … We’ll be giving away a PS3 Slim and limited edition Eddie Riggs (Jack Black) statues to lucky followers who tweet using the hashtag #brutallegend during the party. Below is some info about the Destructoid/Brutal Legend…

  • Apple Movie Trailers: Legion

    Legion looks very bizarre. I’m tempted to do that David Spade “I liked it the first time I saw it…when it was called The Prophecy!” except I didn’t like The Prophecy.  It looks to be yet another post-religious film with little understanding of doctrine aside from what it can use to tell the story it…

  • Geoff Johns revisits some old favorites

    Over at Dixonverse, they’re discussing a topic I’ve been thinking about for a while:  Geoff Johns seeming to go overboard with the material from a number of Alan Moore stories.  While I like much of what has been happening…indeed, Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps are the ONLY DC Comic books I still buy… this…
