  • Farewell to the great Dwayne McDuffie

    I think it’s fair to say that most everyone in the comic book industry is in shock right now.  Dwayne McDuffie has passed away, reportedly due to complications during surgery.  We still don’t know too much about what happened. Through this last weekend he was still posting on his blog about the debut of his…

  • Podcast 6: Avatar and More

    Erik and I did a pile of podcasts in January, and it’s taking me a while to edit them. However, I couldn’t let Avatar hit shelves without posting Erik’s thoughts on it and several other films (then in theaters, now on DVD).

  • Ebert & Roeper site revamped

    In another example of TV content via the Internet, Ebert & Roeper is now replaying the whole show online. What’s more, it begins playing as soon as you open the site. It’s a neat move for Ebert and Roeper, not that Ebert’s content is present, as he’s been sick for most of 2006. One wonders…

It’s a blatant parody of Lord of the Rings, which was somewhat popular at the time, I forget why. Just linking it…

  • I’m too late! Sorry, guys.

    Okay, to the guy who whined about my Amazon links, I have to say: I wish I’d linked to this earlier! I’d had this six-CD set, “Topics Presents:The Stand-Up Comedy Collection” in my Amazon wish list for ages, because I really only wanted to get the Richard Jeni album. Then the price went to $12.88…

  • New Enya album!

    It’s been almost half a decade since her last album, so it’s about time! And yes, I like Enya. I know plenty of people like to sneer her name with the same loathing they reserve for Wal-Mart. I don’t care. I have never courted popularity.
