The cast of Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward (Picture courtesy: SegmentNext) I finished 999 last week and I thought, “Should I wait a bit before picking up Zero Escape?” Then I ordered it and got it on Friday. Man, I’ve spent something like 10 hours on it already. I’m loving all the new thought experiments, the prisoner’s dilemma, and the quantum aspects of the story ...
Weeping Angel I got to share my favorite episode of Doctor Who with Min today. I’d forgotten how eerie and excellent that episode was. I mean, I literally shouted out loud in fear when one of the angels popped into view. Freaky stuff. Love that ep. Movies Not this week. TV Breaking Bad - I don’t know why I had such a long gap before where I wasn’t watching this, but these past few episodes have been brilliant. Walter White is absolutely fascinating in his almost impotent villainy. I love how addicted he is to power and how much pride he has. Just brilliant stuff. ...
Hurricane Sandy (2012): 60 km Wind Area Forecast The hurricane barely did any damage to my place up in Baltimore, but I hope that any of you who were in worse areas of who have family in worse areas are fine. Movies Not this week. TV How I Met Your Mother - The competition for godfather was not that funny. This season in general: not that funny. ...
http://youtu.be/IDhz_mVcVCQ What a bizarre TV show theme to remake. Just obscure and weird and I loved every second of it. Hilarious. Movies The Avengers - Viewing numero tres. Still really enjoy this movie. Was hoping to make it four viewings, but bedtime for Eric and Danielle came too soon. TV New Girl - They really have no clue what to do with Winston. This most recent episode has Schmidt at his most unbearable too. If they were firing on all four cylinders at the start of this season, they certainly aren’t now. On a far less damning note, Zoeey Deschanel’s character is a billion times better written and realized than when she was just “adorkable”. ...
Ron Swanson from Parks & Recreation Lino Block Print Not everything’s back yet, but TV! It’s back! Movies Cabin in the Woods - Watched about 20 mins while Scarlett was napping. I wonder what Danielle’s gonna end up thinking of the movie. I’m a huge fan. Love Fran Kranz TV The Daily Show - The Romney gaffe-fest made for some interesting commentary this week. Love the bit about how being Latino would make everything easier. Yeah, try being a minority for real Romney… ...
Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. The most amazingly adorable Mega Man ever. See more funny videos and funny pictures at CollegeHumor. Sweet Brothers Art Ever wanted to see some great renditions of the Mario Bros.? Well, BAM! SNES! It’s kind of old news, but here’s a neat way to use an old SNES to connect to a PC and play your carts on an emulator. ...
Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. This is pretty much how I feel about the BCS too. Watch through some Weekend Update stuff before getting to the good stuff.
You’ve probably heard the saying that hindsight is 20/20 on Monday morning, so just imagine how well I can call ’em two days later on Wednesday. That’s right, it’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up. Florida Marlins It’s been a while since you’ve last heard from me about the Marlins, but it’s funny how things haven’t changed much since then. The Fish remain 1.5 games back from the Phillies as of today and are, once again, in a series that will challenge the very fabric of their team. ...
