• Clone Wars Marathon: April 9th and 10th

    The Clone Wars, Cartoon Network’s animated micro series shown in five minute segments resumes on my birthday, March 29th. (How did they know? That was sweet of them!) Episodes 11-20 will debut, and then the Clone Wars will be shown in a marathon on April 9-10. What’s more, this animated series will continue a tradition…


  • Are they still working on the footage?

    It’s rather strange that the trailer for Godzilla’s 50th Anniversary Release is just a teaser. Godzilla isn’t in it. In fact, no clips from the movie are in the trailer. You would think they would be able to get their hands on some clips. The re-release will actually be new to American audiences because it…


  • Let’s talk more about LOTR

    …just to bug Eric, who dislikes the Rings trilogy movies. Hopefully this post will prompt him to once again refer to Legolas as a female character. That’s just such a hilarious dig, I can’t get tired of it no matter how many critics make it and think they’re being original. Anyway, here’s a look back…


  • Altar Boy Ebert speaks

    THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST / **** (R) Ebert really nails the whole point of this movie: It makes the crucifixion come alive for all the kids who read the right words in church in reenacting Jesus’ death but never envisioned what it was they were saying. One of Ebert’s comments prompts another link. If…


  • Image’s new publisher

    Erik Larsen, the guy who made “Doom Patrol” really rock (I kid, I kid), has taken over as publisher of Image Comics following the resignation of Jim Valentino.


  • ‘pinions on “Passion

    Two thumbs up for ‘The Passion’ from Ebert and Roeper. Yeah, I deride Ebert a lot for his opinions, which are often biased and snobby. Still, he did attend a Catholic school and often has good opinions on films which feature faith messages, so I don’t mind checking out what he thinks on this film.…


  • Pinguin-whacking

    I know I’m late to the game, but I’ve finally found the link to that Penguin-batting game. I’ve seen so many screen shots of it and not known what it was from. This is addictive. Best score so far is 307.5 by the way.


  • Happy Birthday to Eric

    Mr. Spratling has a birthday today. Congrats, Eric! Speaking of birthdays, mine is coming up in March. If anyone wants to get me a new job as an early present, I’d appreciate it! Yes, I’m job-hunting. I have no clue what this means for my time that I can spend on Monitor Duty, but if…


  • Sucky news about Way Of The Rat, eh?

    WOTR ends with #24 Low sales have determined that Way of the Rat will end with #24, the end of the current story arc. The good news is that at least there will be four complete WOTR trade paperbacks. I will really miss this book, the title I would mention to anyone interested in CrossGen…


  • Addendum

    Regarding the Newsweek “Who Killed Christ?” piece on Mel Gibson’s new movie: I didn’t pass along that link before and I’d meant to. It’s an odd article written from a very strange perspective, where the writer clearly knows something about religion and talks to a number of scholars but seemingly hasn’t encountered any actual Christian…
