Hello Chieftain!

I've always had a soft spot for the Fantastic Four, and since the movie is currently filming in Vancouver, I've been watching its progress with interest. Now comes this report from Cinescape that some new footage is being shot to better showcase Reed Richards' stretching power, apparently to live up to the standard set by Elastigirl in The Incredibles. And that's just fine with me.

You can see some early footage from the movie here. They seem to have done a decent job updating the origin, though not as inventively (and consistently with FF lore) as Brian Michael Bendis in the kickass Ultimate Fantastic Four. Though I don't see how any movie could capture the mad genius ideas that would regularly flow from Jack Kirby's pen.

Googlewhacking is, apparently, entering two unrelated words into Google in hopes of getting exactly ONE result. I must now try this.

Incidentally, you know how I occasionally post a link, and tell you not to click it? Well, this will be the last time I do that, because this is...I'm sorry, there are no words for the horrible, soul-crushing wrongness. I urge--no, I BEG you, don't click the link.

"Hello to...well, just myself, at the moment.

It's currently December 19, in the year two-oh-oh-three, as Gordy would say, I'm bored waiting for my sister-in-law to take me to use her employee discount for Christmas shopping, and I decided to finally get around to starting my blog. I may stick with this thing, I may not. Maybe after the new year.

One of my favorite bittorrent sites falls victim to Valenti's mafia. Urge to kill, rising...

I don't want to live in the same world as this guy. So you know what you have to do now.

Trying to look like a new wave album cover. Note "Pussy Yum" above Reinhard's head. He fixated on this graffito to an unnatural degree.

I'm testing a new photo-posting thingmy. Feel free to ignore 

Since I know you live and die by Titney's actions.

They STILL haven't found it.

Go ahead, it's okay. Would I lie to you?

What, you didn't learn from the last one?

You'll only have yourself to blame.
