TV Review: REAPER - Cancun - May 23, 2008 - 12:01pm
I have to say that I liked this episode. Yes, the escaped soul of the week was just a mcguffin to do the Sock gag, but it was a funny gag. And as for not ending on a big cliffhanger, good! I've always thought the season finale cliffhanger is pure sadism, designed to screw with the viewers and gin up interest in the next season. Thing is, I'm going to watch next season; they don't need a hook (if they really want a hook to bring people in, have a episode where Andi needs to wear an outfit like the one she wore to the wedding). Sam's dad (or is he?) surviving being buried alive is enough to keep me wondering without torturing me. Though I am thinking that maybe macthorn is onto something with that Sam is the grandson of the Devil theory. The Son of Devil story has been done a lot (The Omen, South Park, etc.) but I don't think anyone's done a grandson of the Devil story.

Comicscape: Sucking Life with Gabe Soria - May 15, 2008 - 05:48am
In the last few weeks I haven't been able to see Comicscape on the site until Thursday morning, but all the time stamps here say Wednesday. Is this some weird quirk of the computers I'm using or something else?

Joker's Bodybags, JLA's Home Search & MPAA Madness - Apr 18, 2008 - 11:59am
Just saw the GI Joe pics and I suspect that it's going to be choc-a-bloc with special effects and actions sequences, since they clearly aren't spending any money on constumes--but just HOW are they going to film any large group action scenes when they apparently only have one suit for the whole crew? And when I heard they were casting Sienna Miller as The Baroness, I cringed, because, while I rather like Miller, I thought she just wasn't right for the part--she just lacks the physicality, both in terms of height and body shape. But then I saw her in costume and..., well, actually, I cringed some more, because I was right. What is she supposed to be doing--playing a prepubescent Baroness in a flashback?
