I just watched the American Being Human and I have a confession.   I liked it.  I still prefer the BBC version but I actually sort of liked the American Being Human.  If you're not familiar with it the plot of Being Human is about supernatural creatures that secretly live among us and a werewolf, vampire and ghost share a place ( Read more... )

After having read the horrible Dracula The Undead by Dacre Stoker and my own mind and soul rebelling against the sparkling angsty fad that is Twilight I have decided to reacquaint myself with a true king of the night. I was not disappointed.

A review of the most disappointing manga i've ever read...


( Read more... )

Okay, the gloves are off.  (Literally, I just took my gloves off that I was wearing because it's cold where I am as I write this).   This book is a pure insult to a masterpiece.   It's as if Dacre Stoker is waging war against his own ancestor. I present to you my review of Dracla The Undead.

This ass used MY Dresden Files fan video as reason for "proof" that the show sucked.  I have never been so angry at the book purists in my life.   Terrence Mann is one of the greatest Broadway actors alive and they use clips of HIM as reason they don't like the show?!  There's a difference between fandom and fan-dumb.   Why can't they accept a ( Read more... )

I think Bowie imagines Jareth as being someone who would rather live in the human world as an ( Read more... )

I just got my American copy of Dorian Gray starring Ben Barnes.  I like the British DVD case better so I swapped them out.  Naturally the trailers on the DVD are different (and no chocolate commercial).  And there's a slight difference in the opening credits. The Millennium pictures logo doesn't come up at the beginning. The first one ( Read more... )

Ray Bradbury's reaction to the NSFW Ray Bradbury video.

I don't know if you're aware of this but there's a new and disturbingly catchy youtube video called f--ck me Ray Bradbury in which a Britney Spears style "school girl" talks about wanting to do naughty things to Ray Bradbury.  Ain't it Cool News got a photograph of Bradbury's reaction to ( Read more... )

Despite my own dislike of certain aspects of the ending Return to Labyrinth Volume 4 made it to the 4th spot on the New York Times Best Seller List.

Return to Labyrinth is the four part manga sequel to the fantasy film Labyrinth starring rock star David Bowie (The Hunger and The man who fell to Earth) as Jareth, ( Read more... )
