I was going to save this for the Epic Drop but this is too good to not ramble about right now.

Must of us by now have heard about the X-Men Origins: Wolverine leak and that the whole movie is online for pretty much anyone to download right now.  The film is incomplete with unfinished effects and Tom Rothman at Fox insisted a ton of footage was missing and that the run time was longer on the final cut. 

It turns that the run time is exactly the same thing, 107 minutes, though there supposedly are …  More

Add another notch in the legacy that is Michael Jordan.  Today the NBA unveiled the 2009 class of inductees to the hall of fame including such class acts as David Robinson and John Stockton.  The highlight of course is the induction of the greatest ever, Michael Jordan. 

It has been obvious for years that this day would come and while I didn't expect another Jordan comeback I have to say this is slightly bitter sweet.  The realization that this officially the end of an era and the book is pretty…  More

Surprisingly I owe my love for Watchmen to a girl.  She will remain nameless but I should thank her nonetheless.  It is rare that someone "out geeks" me but she has her moments.  I had heard of it previous to her mentioning as it is almost a prerequisite of anyone with a solid interest in comics.  It was her rabid interest, someone who wasn't really big in to comics that sold me.  I picked it up the trade paperback and have been raving over Alan Moore's work ever since. 

Obviously I had a great…  More

You can't keep a good director down.  If any man deserves a lifetime achievement award when it comes to movies it is the genius German movie director Mr. Uwe Boll.  Just look at this list of game-to-movie translations that Uwe (pronounced OOV-UH for those that don't know) has given us to enjoy:  House of the Dead, Alone in the Dark, BloodRayne, it's sequel, Postal, Far Cry and Dungeon Siege. 

That is a gamers dream right?  Well unfortunately they all pretty much suck.  I give House of the …  More

I won't lie.  I was pretty much ditching my NFL weekly blog as my fantasy teams were doing ****ty and my Bears were average at best.  After going 6-6 I wasn't too thrilled with their odds of making the playoffs.  So what happens?  The bastards win their next three including an amazing OT thriller and give me hope once again only to collapse week 17.  Son of a *****. 

So this week I am going to step back from the Bears, my lack of fantasy performance and give some Wild Card weekend predicti…  More

There are spoilers ahead for tonight's UFC PPV so if you haven't watched it yet you have been warned!  It was one hell of a show with a few surprise ending that I never saw coming. 



Results posted after synopsis. 

The card came close to living up to the billing though I would have preferred the Silva fight to go a bit longer than one round.  The title fights only going 2 and 3 rounds was a bit of a bummer but at least it was fast paced action and some TKO finishes instead of the 5 round "lay…  More

Big news out of the Wall Street Journal today that includes the RIAA abandoning new music lawsuits and instead focusing on getting your internet cut off at the ISP level.  And having your internet cut off if you are "accused" of pirating music is certainly going to affect your gaming.

Considering on last read I heard they had a success rate of like 60% on their lawsuits considering those that were thrown out for lack of evidence, wrong users, or just plain denied; I'd say this is a pretty risky …  More

I was able to get in on this awesome feature tonight so I figured I would give you guys the chance to live vicariously through my experience. 

Warner Brothers and Christopher Nolan, director of The Dark Knight had a awesome little feature running tonight via BD Live, the latest and greatest in Blu-Ray features.  On tap for the evening was a live chat and screening via the TDK Blu-Ray disc.

If you aren't familiar with BD Live I will give a quick syn…  More

A couple of nights of ago on the Epic Drop I wasn't too thrilled about our outgoing president, Mr. Bush, giving us a big F.U. on his way out of office.  Ironically some justice has been thanks in part to the shoe throwing Iraqi reporter.  Sure it may have been more funny if he actually landed a shot only to be tossed in Guantanamo or something but now we have fantastic mini games like Sock and Awe!

I am starting off this week with Fantasy chatter because my main team is a let down.  I have 5, yes 5 players over 100+ points right now and they are all starters, they can all play the same week.  Only 2 other teams even have 3, yet I am still in 7th place.  I just don't understand it.  I have never had such a strong team and been this far back.  Now and them I have started the wrong guy, and a couple were later pick ups, but still.  I am totally confused about this situation.

While I may …  More
