Who watches the SuperFriends?

When the Watchmen originally came out 400 years ago, "Who watches the Watchmen?" was a phrase emblazoned many DC titles, be it in the corner or on a back page ad. Before viral internet marketing, getting a buzz out was done this way.It was clever and cool. Even later on you might see the phrase in other titles as an homage to the classic book. What does this have to do with the following video? Not very much.

Nothing quite like a good adaptation!


Who remembers the original Ghostbusters game? Enter your name as Owen and you could get a boatload of money.

Here is the new Ghostbusters game. The trailer at least and what looks like the few seconds of video surrounding the already released screen shots, oh and a lot of movie footage.

I don't think as many people have seen Ghostbusters as one might think. As much as I might think that everything related to 80's pop culture is known by the average bear, it certianly hasn't happened. I know a girl that has a geek blog that had never seen the Flash Gordon movie until recently, the one with the Queen soundtrack! So it is possible that there is a percentage of America has not seen Ghostbusters. It is possible I tell you. The movie came out in 1984, and well that is a long time ago. I hope there is still an audience for this movie. Don't embarrass me game developers, you made a Scarface game, and a Godfather game. In the grand scheme of things those games are a footnote. It's one thing to make games on current franchises, it's almost shameful to go back an tarnish a good name.

A stylized dude movie! Guns, and girls.

Hell Ride, written and directed by Larry Bishop, son of Rat Packer Joey Bishop.

Guns,and girls. Trailer has some boobies in it, so NSFW.

The Spirit! It's all stylized!

Hopefully this trend will stop soon. I like style as much as the next guy. I know, "thats how Frank Miller draws, I'm a fan."

Shut your pie hole, you know this shit can get trite as quickly as watching the same porn twice.

I'm not into elves, and bare feet!


The real sort of it is, apparently there is to be an Elfquest movie . As stated above, I'm not really into elves or fantasy in general, however sometimes I get surprised.

The writer and director of the movie Dodgeball, will probably not surprise me.

Rawson Marshall Thurber looks like he takes himself very seriously. He's part of the Writers Guild of America, and would to make sure you know this by looking at the picture of himself holding a sign, on the front page of his website.

Anyway, elves.
