I NOW

From this point forward there will be

No one else will…

“WHAT THE FUCK UP, BITCH!”

Oh SNAP, its Mechagodzilla!

“What’s happening, dude? Are you really doing a blog?! YOU?!”, MechaGodzilla

YES. Now shut up and let me finish up wha…

“Hey. Can I help?”, MechaGodzilla

Okay but remember who is in charge around here!

As I was saying, I Now…

“Ahem!”, MechaGodzilla

*sigh*

WE NOW RULE THIS BLOG. BEWARE!

No one is safe with Godzilla

& MechaGodzilla

now blogging on BtS!

Oh shit, look what Virtual Echo just flipped me!?

Is Dollhouse on it’s last legs? A good post on Blog@Newsarama mentions how Dollhouse is on the bench for the November sweeps which is not a good sign for any show.

A while ago, I mentioned on Twitter if Dollhouse will survive and I knew that some DH fans would come out and flame me over my posts. I mentioned the following:

@RobertParizek If #Firefly fans get all browncoats & decked out in cosplay, do #DOLLHOUSE fans cosplay as blank slates in pastal coloured tracksuits?

@RobertParizek Read #DOLLHOUSE ratings are not good & I am sure Whedon fans will blame FOX but if a show is fucking boring, a show is fucking boring.

The biggest issue of Dollhouse IMHO is that there is NO  ONE to “like” or bound with on the show. There is no Everyman/Everywoman unless Echo is programmed to be a lactating MILF. NONE of the characters like each other in any way unless they are programmed to — why watch a show where NO  ONE likes one another?! I understand that maybe having unlikeable characters is what Dollhouse wants to do in that manner but I am guessing that the majority of TV viewers don’t “get it”.

Another good IO9 post here:

I wanted to mention this earlier but I was busy. Congrats to Ethan and all those at Elfsar Comics & Toys for being featured in the “Best of Vancouver” selection in the Georgia Straight! Good job and great store. Any time I am downtown and not LOST in PoMo, I drop by and get my hit — I mean check out the Skrully Jack post for what happened on my last visit!

Also Elfsar is hosting this years 24 Hour Comics Day on October 18, 2008. All the news regarding this can be found on Elfsars website here:

Sadly I will not be apart of this years group unless plans change for me (work and all) but I will try to drop by and give support to the event. It was a blast when I did the very first one and again in 2006 (I can be seen here sporting a Mohawk and Warren Ellis Engine t-shirt — see, I used to like him) and this was a great deal of fun. I would try it again IF I could and perhaps this year I would do it both online and via post-it notes (yes, my secret formula!).

As the newest HEROES season is about to begin, I wanted to give out a big thanks to BJ @ M80 for sending me two exclusive Comic-Con Heroes comic books! I meant to put this call out a while ago when I got the books but it has been insane for me lately. The book is one of those short marketing comics but some great short stories by the likes of Mark Sable, Yule Caise, Chuck Kim and stunning artists like Jason Badower, Peter Steigerwald & Marcus To! Kudos and remember to check out the videos about the Heroes Create-A-Hero campaign:

So at “The Con” Heroes booth, you could go inside and VOTE on the next HERO to get their own Online Live Action series either Santiago or Audury, based on these characters being created last season. So I got an email reminding me about this so I went through and really enjoyed seeing Boba Fett pimping this whole viral thingie out so that the youtube vid I put up. Here, go make with the clicky:

I voted for Audury as she is all “dark” and evil-like! I don’t mind her whole “control time (slow/speed up) powers” but man that would be hard to write.

Okay I want my free sticker or something now… hello? NBC? Viral marketing people (M80 who had contacted me on behalf of Sprint)? Bueller? HOUSE!?

Buggers!

So there I was kicking it in the Fables line at the DC booth awaiting to get a trade signed (for William S.) and this SMOKING hot young woman came over and asked the young woman behind me to be in this video they were shooting. So they shot the video and it was the sexy young woman trying to cut in line, the woman in line behind me says “NO!” and continues on with the conversation. There I am trying not to drool into the camera and am playing with my badge (in my mind, to get it out of the way of the BC LIONS t-shirt I was wearing) and then the hot young woman continues onto the front where she gets in line. It is said to be on this new hot website: MyLocationScounts.com.

I spoke to the CEO of the site, Elvina Beck (sorry I called you SMOKING hot but come’on, I am a big, tall, fat, comic book geek!), and she told us what the site was about, it is similar (in my mind) to a craigslist for the film industry. You can login (for FREE!) and list that you have a DRUM SET and you live in VENICE BEACH, CAL and then if a local location/set person needs a Drum Set for their shoot, they contact you and you guys make the deal. Sounds like a GREAT website so please go and check it out, maybe you can login and make some $$!

Oh and thanks again for the great conversations with the young woman in line with me (I am a big goof for not introducing myself) and person who gave me another of the bonus from the Fables panel (a small 1 page story by the Fables team) for William S. Thanks again and good luck!

… and if / when I see the video on the site, I will mention it here so you can see my fat face looking down at my toes in the background for a 5 sec blur. woo hoo!

Over at Panels of Awesome EVIL the Tournament of Evil kicks off round 1 with two votes this week. First up is Ultron vs Black Adam as well as Venom vs Luthor! To keep with the new Torney rules, I won’t be broadcasting my votes (other than I voted) so it won’t skew the voting. So remember to go vote and WIN! Did I mention… its FREE to VOTE & WIN!

Check out the details (voting info & PRIZES!) here:

This is pretty funny and enjoyable! I cannot wait for CHUCK to return to the telly and HELLBOY to the theaters! Snagged from IGN.com.

Oh and Best Bang Reborn will be coming this weekend with last weeks comics included into one big post. A thrown out back kept me off the comic news of late.

Remember when Warner Bros came after me about the Two-Face photo (f***kers!)? Well now you can see the teaser for Two-Face, from the upcoming Batman The Dark Knight movie, here on the Gotham Pizzaria website. Move yer mouse of the HA of “Gotham” and then click. Enjoy!

From the little bit I can see I’m still not sure the image you had up is a match

Silenzio Says:

Check it, the Gotham times web site has some adds in it. One of which takes you to the Gotham City Rail site. It has a rail map of the city to look at.

I’m a sucker for a map.
