Shop Talk

It's been a while...and I'm ready to talk some shop. I love me some Flight Of The Conchords. Be sure to snag their new album I Told You I Was Freaky. I don't know how many times I have already listened to Too Many Dicks?!

There are two movies coming out that are impossible to disappoint me. I literally could care less about The Wolf Man and The Green Hornet. I see no reason to remake The Wolf Man. How hard was it really to do makeup effects on that set? Benico Del Toro is easily one of the ugliest guys in Hollywood to begin with, and I'm pretty sure Green Hornet is going to come off like that Dick Tracey movie with a bigger budget.

Hey kids can you collect the whole set?

MTV recently bought the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for $60 Million. I guess that's big news if you twelve years old or Corey Feldman.

If you have a problem...if no one else can help, and if you can find them...maybe you can hire The A-Team!

Want to see a cool map of every space mission America has ever done? Conspicuously the USS Enterprise is nowhere to be found.

Do you really need anymore reasons to buy Uncharted 2 for the PS3?

Do you have a Halloween costume picked out yet? Do want to stage the rape scene from Watchmen?

I'm with Frank Castle on this one...STOP SENDING ME MAFIA WARS requests on Facebook!

I want to win $5,000.

And last but not least...What is the real future of comics? I don't think anything will take the place of holding an actual paper book in my hands. At least not in my lifetime. They are never going to get me to download a digital comic to my cellphone. People are actually doing this? How can you read a comic one panel at a time on your iPhone? But....what if your media device was as big as a comic book? Well that might change things. But it's got to have a solid, proven distribution model...like iTunes. iTunes has effected music sales worldwide. It's simple to use, and done at a volume that keeps price down. If Longbox pans out it has the potential to be huge. Longbox could be the shot in the arm the industry needs. Not to mention what this means for indie comics, and people trying to break in.
