Fall [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“It’s not over yet, but we’re getting close”] [/caption] It seems that fall is rapidly approaching, despite my fiendish plot to seize control of the planet’s weather with my mind. With the change in the climate comes a change in sports programming. Back for two weeks is college football while the NFL opener was played over the past few days as well. Baseball no longer holds the brunt of the spotlight, but I guess that’s not all bad. ...

Quick Movie Roundup [Filmmakers Bleed]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“The disparate visual elements of an “Oriental Western” are both jarring and awesome”] [/caption] Saw a couple of movies recently. Here’s what I think of them: A Prophet French movie about a French prison. Our hero, Malik El Djebena, is thrown in jail for six years for beating up a police officer. He quickly finds himself in unwillingly in the service of the Corsican crime family that runs the place, but his latent intelligence allows him to quickly find his bearings and start to make something of himself during his time in jail. ...

Scott Pilgrim is an Asshole [Bookmark This]

[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“336” caption=“There are spoilers in this post!”] [/caption] Seriously… SPOILERS! At the tender age of 24, I’m pretty sure I’ve still got a bit of the asshole that all kids have in their late teens/early twenties still left in me. That’s just a consequence of what it means to be young, I guess. We think we know better than the world and we’re tremendously selfish about what we want for ourselves, but it’s really our (Scott Pilgrim and myself) actions toward women that define us as assholes. ...

April Smith And The Great Picture Show in DC [Feedback]

At the age of 24 I fear that I’m approaching an age too old for going to the shows of bands I love. With that in mind, I’ve resolved to catch as many as I can over the next year or so before I become the creepy old guy in the back who can actually drink. Last night I went to see April Smith And The Great Picture Show, a fantastic band with a sharp 1920s and 1930s sound that I heard about on All Songs Considered on NPR. The moment I heard April’s powerful voice singing in the podcast I knew that I had to see her live. She did not disappoint. ...

How is this a trailer for a Korean MMO? Wouldn’t this be a kick-ass Rockman anime?
