Take That, World. It’s Captain AMERICA!

March 30th, 2011 | Posted in Daily Rants, Movies

You know, when Captain America is released in Europe and Asia, the title will be changed to reflect a new political correctness of  ridiculous proportions. So, this guy on YouTube redid the trailer.

Sucker Punch Movie Review

March 28th, 2011 | Posted in Movies

Have you ever been sucker punched? Basically, you never see it coming, it’s a sudden pain you were not expecting, and afterwards you are left confused and wondering where the hell it came from, and more importantly, WHY.

March 28th, 2011 | Posted in Daily Rants

So in light of our latest podcast, it was brought to my attention that I have tastes that might…deviate from the norm.  No, I’m not talking about Wonder Woman and how I think her suit is SO AWESOME (it’s not), but specifically American Gods by Neil Gaiman.  That’s right, Kriana, I thought that book was […]

Goodnight Dune

March 25th, 2011 | Posted in Literature

According to this article, Paramount has decided not to go forward with making Frank Herbert’s best selling novel Dune into a movie franchise. To hold you over until the Dune rights-holders find another deal, I offer a Dune-themed bedtime story entitled Goodnight Dune.

Beginner’s Guide to Dark Shadows

March 22nd, 2011 | Posted in TV

My name is Maynard Winter. My journey is beginning. A journey that I hope will open the doors of gothic horror to me. With the theatrical adaptation of Dark Shadows looming just a year away, my goal is to watch as much of the original series as I can, and share my thoughts on the […]

A Firefly Movement We Can All Get Behind

March 22nd, 2011 | Posted in Daily Rants, Movies, Websites

There has been a lot of drama and controversy surrounding the Firefly ‘verse lately regarding who will or will not win the lottery and start it up again. These people are missing out.

Deus Ex Machina

March 18th, 2011 | Posted in Daily Rants, Literature

I thought I’d write a somewhat more speculative article this week (with more potential for controversy, I suppose) about one of my favorite authors–Isaac Asimov. In particular, I’d like to look at whether the good Doctor might have gone one step beyond his acknowledged battle against the “Frankenstein Complex” in some of his writings. Asimov’s […]

Title: Sunshine Author: Robin McKinley Format: Hardcover, Paperback, Audio Sometimes, your beloved Zombrarian falls into despair. See, she loves her some vampire books, but vampire books are apparently really hard to write.
