X-Files and Some Superhero Bloviating

Submitted by Jon on Wednesday, Jul 23rd 2008

A buddy sent me the above from Some-e-Cards, which honestly had me laughing for a solid minute. With the "X-Files" coming up, let's all think back on that glorious time when the idea of the government monitoring everyone's internet and phone usage, and placing CCTV on every corner was a far-flung conspiracy theorist's fantasy. Those were the days...

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

I don't know how many of you will actually be interested in this. As a gigantic Joss Whedon fangirl I deem it to be the most amazing thing ever. But that's the thing about fangirls/boys, they squeal with delight in the most biased of ways.

Horror Headlines 7/22/08

After 5 years and countless shenanigans (including some people that apparently never got paid for their work), the trainwreck waiting to happen known as "Return to Sleepaway Camp" has been acquired by Magnolia Picture for an October DVD release. This has brought up many shenanigan worthy memories from the old site, which I'll most likely be recounting in a blog post this week. Stay tuned for that.

Ryuhei Kitamura, director of "Midnight Meat Train", is planning to remake his early film "Versus". I had a chance to see "Versus" a few years back, and I have to say it's pretty sweet. It's essentially the story of Japanese Yakuza who run into a forest full of zomie/ninjas. So, I guess a remake could at least be interesting.

The last 5 seconds of "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane" trailer sports the words "This Spring". Does that mean it finally has a release date? At this point, it's only conjecture so we'll have to wait and see.

ZMD is a comic about weaponized zombies let loose to run amok on the middle east, and what happens when the US Army loses control of one of the beasts. Also, it's just been picked up for adaptation and there should be a booth at comic con so, keep a look out for that.

In Real People News:

Albinos are being killed in Tanzania, because people think they're into witchcraft. I would have thought it was because they're creepy as hell, but I guess I'm just a simple guy like that.

Attention douchebags with bluetooth headsets who live in the UK... you're being watched, and it's not by Bruce Wayne, it's by the Federal Government. Shocker.

Man decides not to kill himself by jumping off building, then slips and falls. I would comment on how ironic that is, but I'm not actually sure if that qualifies as irony. Where's Jon when you need him?

On this day in history:

1587: Roanoke, the colony founded by Sir Walter Raleigh, is found to be missing. It is never discovered what happened to the settlers.
