If you’re a Superman fan of any sort, you might have been keeping up with the various lawsuits surrounding the character. For a very long time now, both the Siegel heirs and Shuster Estates have been fighting hard to regain their rights of the character, and in doing so terminate their...
Book Review: Jane: T...
posted by Big Dog
Some months ago, and very much by happenstance, I was browsing through Amazon.com and found that a new Tarzan novel was coming out. This was a fortunate thing for a Tarzan fan such as myself, so I found myself interested in what the premise of this book was. For starters, it wasn’t a new...

As promised, I have returned with the next movie in the Halloween series! This one simply called Halloween II. It came as something of a surprise that Halloween did as well as it managed. On the $300,000 budget, it more than made back its cost. Moustapha Akkad (the producer throughout most of...

It’s that time of year again, folks! That means getting ready for trick-or-treaters, wearing costumes of all sorts of frightening and cool natures, pulling pranks of your own (because you never outgrew it), and watching horror/slasher films! Everyone’s entitled to one good scare,...

Much like the rest of my co-hosts, last night I watched the premiere of Doctor Who. I guess that should come as no surprise to anybody, especially since I’ve been a fan of the Doctor since I was around 12 years old. That old blue box and the Doctor have seen so many different aliens and...

Today, io9 reported that a website called TMNT, not TANT had posted the original draft for Bay’s remake of the Ninja Turtles. Of course, the blogger ripped (dare I say shredded?) the script to slag and let everyone have a chance to read it themselves and make their own judgments....

It is with a very heavy heart, and staggered shock, that I talk today about the death of Tony Scott. Most people know who Tony Scott is; director of such films as Top Gun and Days of Thunder. He was also brother to Ridley Scott, whom he owned a production company with. This company was, as...

It is my sad duty to report the loss of legendary artist; Joe Kubert. Mr. Kubert’s work spanned 7 decades, working on such titles as Hawkman, Sgt. Rock (who he co-created), Tarzan, and Korak. This is, of course, a short list. He also had the distinction of creating The Kubert...

This morning’s article was a rush job on my part. I know it shows, but it comes down to two things; 1. I was at work and trying to make sure I put out our sympathies. 2. I was still in shock about this. After talking with coworkers about this all day and reading various accounts of the...
