Watchmen animated movie on DVD this week?
If I hadn’t been visiting the Watchmen trailers I wouldn’t have seen this: An animated version of “Tales of the Black Freighter”…plus, “Under the Hood”, out on DVD to coincide with the movie! Wow! And voiced by the “THIS IS SPARTA!” guy! Double wow!

Val Kilmer to run for NM Governor
More here… What disturbs me is that, if successful, he will be the third actor from Batman and Robin [NOT Batman Forever – Ye Ed] (a film, even the most unrefined of comic geeks believe to be the WORST Batman film ever) to land a governorship. Makes you think.
