My So-Called Luminosity
There’s a scene in the the trailer for the upcoming re-remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where Nicole Kidman’s character is walking through a crowd of people and is warned not to show any emotion, because that’s how they can tell you’re still human. Looking at the Rotten Tomatoes page for Stardust is a…
Steady now, your genetic code is being rewritten.
The Xbox 360 demo for BioShock came out last night (a PC demo is in the works), and I tried it out for a little less than an hour. Key discoveries: It’s awesome. It looks like it may be able to live up to most of the hype it’s been getting. They weren’t lying when…
Life in These United States
The two big stories on Yahoo news today: The Chinese executive in charge of a company that distributed lead-tainted toys to the US has killed himself. Whereas Karl Rove just resigned. Just sayin’.

I’m one more movie closer to death, since I saw The Night of the Hunter last night. And it’s at least a dozen kinds of awesome. A movie like this is really difficult for me to describe. Something like His Girl Friday is easy: it’s timeless, just as cool today as it was 67 years…

So the day after they announced the new iMacs, I made the pilgrimage to the local Apple store just to feel of them. (Key finding: the 24″…
I can has all your base?
Hay guyz does anybody has seen that hilarious Hampster Dance page?!? Nothing can make you feel like a dinosaur faster than trying to keep up with the internet memes. The people already have a dozen parodies out on the youtubes before I’ve even seen the first one. Luckily Ape Lad is on top of the…
You can’t go WOOF WOOF WOOF again.
For this vacation, the family’s been indulging me in a bunch of nostalgia trips. The other day was The Georgia Aquarium, which is tough to be nostalgic for seeing as how it only opened a few years ago, but it was my first time back in downtown Atlanta in a long time. For the record:…
