Thanks for sticking around...

I don't know that any body's reading this anymore, but if I'm still stuck in your feed reader we'll be re launching our new blog soon...

Dr. Horrible, watch it again for a limited time on Hulu!

Nova now on Hulu!

I know it may seem like I'm gushing a little much over Hulu, but we are now 4 days into Hulu's Days of Summer promotion and already we've been given some real gem's. So far Hulu has added 2 movies, Lost in Translation and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, as well the slapstick classics The Three Stooges 1934-1936.(see the widget toward the bottom of this very page!) Thursdays new addition has me down right giddy. Now available to watch on Hulu.com is arguably television best documentary series NOVA. NOVA has been a long time PBS favorite of mine, the documentary is always interesting, intelligent and fair. Check out a couple of episodes below or click HERE to view all the episodes posted on Hulu. The only real downside I can see is now we have to sit through 2 commercials in the beginning instead of one

Have your own mutated abomination ready for Spore

I still don't really know what to expect from the much hyped upcoming game Spore. I do know I am excited about it! Why? you may ask. Will Wright thats why. Will Wright is mostly known as "Game God" because he is one of the founders of Maxis and creators of Sim City and The Sims. While not all of Will's games have been as successful (I'm looking at you SimCopter) even games like SimAnt can catch the imagination for hours.

What is spore? Spore's official website describes the game; "With Spore you can nurture your creature through five stages of evolution: Cell, Creature, Tribe, Civilization, and Space. Or if you prefer, spend as much time as you like making creatures, vehicles, buildings and spaceships with Spore’s unique Creator tools.CREATE Your Universe from Microscopic to Macrocosmic - From tide pool amoebas to thriving civilizations to intergalactic starships, everything is in your hands."

So if you are anything like me I know you want to download the creature creator and start playing Intelligent Designer like I did.

Watch a clip of the game play HERE

Check out the games offical site, where you can download the Creature Creator HERE

Watch Edward Norton and The Incredible Hulk here for free!

I know the post title is a little misleading, but I got something your gonna like...

Before you get all angry and Hulk out, Hulu.com has some of that Bill Bixby/Lou Ferrigno goodness for you to check it out!



And you can see Edward Norton match wits with Anthony Hopkins in the latest edition to Hannibal Lecter's bloody big screen saga, Red Dragon

Oh! Just FYI because Red Dragon is rated R Hulu requires you register a free account before you watch. But no worries, as of yet I haven't received any spam from Hulu.com

Read some free Incredible Hulk and other comics

Well that image pretty much says it all. Click the image or HERE to go to Marvel.com's digital comics Unlimited to read Marvel's latest digitized offerings including a good recap of the events in Planet Hulk.

Watch Disney Movies Online Free!

Ah how I love this new age of free streaming entertainment! But I never thought Disney in all of their super double special edition for the first time ever on (enter format here) would be streaming movies! Over on Disney.com the Mouse and company will let you watch whatever movie they showcased on Wonderful World of Disney that week on ABC. Once Wonderful World of Disney airs the movie is accessible and the last movie is taken down (typical limited edition Disney shenanigans) this week the Pixar classic Finding Nemo is showcased, next week Monsters INC. unless your reading this next month and in that case it's anybody's guess. Follow the link HERE, than click the TV button on the menu bar at the top then click Wonderful World of Disney (I know it's a movie but it's on TV, DON'T QUESTION THE MOUSE OK!?)

Free Flash Fun!

Today's Free Flash Fun is an addictive little game called "Dirk Valentine And The Fortress Of Steam." Dirk is a platformer style of game where you control a small soldier armed with only a chain gun (think Bionic Commando's arm) which you must use to both destroy wandering enemies and create your self bridges over obstacles. To play Dirk you need to use both the keyboard and mouse so lap tops with touch pads and smart phones might have a tough time enjoying Dirk Valentine, but I think most flash gamers will be pleased with this clever little platformer from Nitrome.com

Daily Show, Colbert Report, Hulk and more added to Hulu!

Welcome back to Palaba's Posts! I'm sorry for the lengthy leave of absence but I'm proud to say I am, as of May 25, a happily married man. We were married on the shore of the Chester River (Chesapeake Bay) on Maryland's beautiful eastern shore. But I know thats not why you're here, you're here for the free stuff. This post marks a new beginning for us here at Palaba's Posts. It had come to my attention that you the readers of Palaba's Posts were more interested in the links to all the free entertainment on the web and less interested in what I have to say. So with that in mind we are re-dedicating our e-existence to bringing you the finest free entertainment these inter-webs have to offer. In the future I pledge more fun less hyphens!

As many readers know I am a huge fan of the site Hulu.com and now my unhealthy obsession grows again! Hulu has added The Daily Show and The Colbert Report to it's already massive offerings of content. Also if you need a little more Lou Ferrigno in your life (and let's be honest, who doesn't?) Hulu has also added the 70's classic The Incredible Hulk in what I can only imagine is for Marvel's latest big screen offering.

Here's a couple of vid's to get you started:

Wedding Bells

I'd like to ask for you patience as posts from Palaba here on Palaba's Post are going to be even more stagnant than they have lately. I know it may be hard to bear, what with the vast internet and all its cool free music, movies, games and opinions without the lazy rants of a guy trying to enjoy the internet on the cheap but take some solace in knowing that while I'm not here I'm preparing for my wedding at the end of May. I wouldn't expect to see posts around here on a daily basis until late June. So please enjoy your spring and check back from time to time as I'll update when I can, but not with any regularity.

Read the first 10 pages of Marvel's Secret Invasion/New Iron Man Trailer

Over at Entertainment Weekly's online outlet EW.com, Marvel showed off it's newest summer "event" Secret Invasion, by giving the readers the first 10 (Well 8 really) pages of the first issue. I am quite excited about the new comic crossover, but don't feel to crazy about it taking 8 months to reslove. I'm just not that patient, thats why I usually just buy the trades when Marvel releases them a year or so later.
Check it out here at EW.com

EW.com also has an interview with Secret Invasion's writer Brian Michael Bendis HERE

And check out the new TV trailer for Iron Man Here...

Almost every episode of South Park online for FREE! (Legal too!)

The brilliant Trey Parker and Matt Stone along with the wonderful people at comedy central have started streaming virtually every episode of South Park online Hulu style. The site looks great, you can choose from a small fan favorites section or select the season and episode and magically a new window pops up for your viewing pleasure! The site is entirely add supported with both banner adds and some commercials during the episode, it's still less than on TV. The site also has flash games, a production blog, forum, an episode guide and clips from the upcoming episode. The site is still in it's beta, only problem I had was with the chat, but a friend told me he couldn't get full screen to work, but mostly it's very smooth. I don't know what you're waiting for go, watch the episodes, and click on the adds so with any luck Comedy Central will realize what a good idea this is and put more shows on the air. (With any luck Reno 911) Check it out at www.southparkstudios.com when your done please come back here and tell me YOUR favorite episode in the comments so I can go watch and laugh too.

Cosmic Comix Website Relaunch!

My Favorite small comics site has just recently re-launched with a more "bloggy" feel to it. You can check out current 0r upcoming releases for comics and action figures, listen to the podcast Comic Book Conversations or read news and reviews for the in house review guy Shawn Douglas. Shawn's reviews are always an entertaining read, I don't always agree with him, but since vowing to only review what he likes put him quite ahead of all the amateur bashers who call themselves comic reviewers that in my opionon. plauge the web. Not that i want every review I read to be flowers and sun shine, but sometimes it seems like bloggers play a game called "Who can bash it first!"
Any way it's a good group of people who are always entertaining to listen to or read and the site is currently add free. (unless you count the fact that the site is kinda an add for the comic store)

Hulu Now Free And Open to Everyone

You no longer have to receive an invite to watch all the shows and movies on Hulu.com. In addition to all the shows and Hulu now has a total of 74 full length movies. If you haven't had a chance to check out this free site I highly recommend it. I get my Simpsons, My Name is Earl and 30 Rock from Hulu. (They just need to hullry with the full episodes of Futurama)This site is totally free, which as I'm sure you can guess means it's supported by adds, but it seems to me to be far less adds than network/cabel TV. I just hope that under the new contract the writers are getting paid off this too, I'd hate to think that sites like Hulu could be the demise of new quality shows. Although I think the WGA took care of that with the latest strike.

Here's what I'm watching:

The Simpsons: Dial "N" for Nerder








The A-Team: The Out-of-Towners







The Tick: The Terror

The Wire: Blogs

Just in case you haven't noticed we here at Palaba's Posts are big fans of HBO's The Wire, but believe it or not we're not the only ones! It seems the series finale of The Wire has inspired many a post, especially at The New York Entertainment's blog Vulture. So for you other blog readers who can't get enough of The Wire here's some of reading material:

The Wire: What to eat!

I was discussing with a friend what to serve during the gathering he's hosting for this evenings Wire finale. We both came to the immediate conclusion that steamed crabs or crab cakes would be the best, but since Maryland Crabs are out of season and no one wants to clean up after crabs at 10:30 at night we came up with a great Baltimore themed snack assortment:

First up is UTZ's Crab Chip, a favorite Baltimore Snack featured in several episodes of The Wire

One thing anyone who has eaten crab chips before will tell you is that they make you thirsty! What better way to quench that thirst than with Baltimore's favorite cheap beer National Bohemian or as we call it Natty Boh

If you need more proof that UTZ and Natty Boh go together better than PB and the J check out this billboard as seen from I-95 in Baltimore

What snack assortment would be complete without some sweets? A must have is Baltimore's Bergers Cookies

And in honor of the fictional detectives of the Baltimore City police department we have Jameson Whiskey

Lazy Sunday : The Wire finale edition

Well it's here. We all knew that eventually what has been called the greatist show on television ever, is coming to an end. The Wire has changed what millions of people expect from television, shows who's theme is meant to be gritty or "real" seem like Fisher Price compared to The Wire. As most Baltimore natives who watch the wire will tell you, every character no matter how minute or major, is based on at least one real person. Events like Hamsterdamn or McNulty's serial killer may be completely fictions, but their reaction and message is very real. Join us here at Palaba's post as we take a quick look back at the Best Television Drama Ever! If you feel the need to say goodbye HBO has a "Public Record" for you to leave your mark HERE. I left my words HERE

LEGO Digital Designer: Design anything you can Imagine with LEGOs

If you loved building your own LEGO designs as much as I did, I have found a must download free app, the LEGO Digital Designer! The LEGO Digital Designer allows you to select from three LEGO themes and 763 different blocks. The graphics rich interface allows you to rotate and connect bricks, move any hinges or levers and move the "camera" 360 degrees. Of course there is a link to the LEGO store so you can purchase your creation, which even comes with custom step-by-step directions so you can re-build you digital creation with the real blocks.If you're having a creative mental block the Digital Designer comes with 17 models ready for you to customize. All the options combined with the heavy graphics can be quite the memory hog, so I suggest closing every thing else before you give it a try, but I DO suggest you give it a try.

Mr. Picasso Head

If you have ten minutes to kill check out Mr. Picasso Head. The name pretty much everything you need to know, but just in case you can't quite picture it I'll give you a brief run down. You start with blank canvas in lieu of a potato, and instead of shiny plastic appendages to bludgeon the potato with Mr. Picasso Head allows you to arrange Picasso-ish graphics which can be enlarged, rotated, shaded, etc. Create your own or browse the user created gallery HERE

Trailer Posts: Wanted

Wanted Exclusive Trailer



So far, judging solely on the trailers I've seen it looks like the movie strays far far away from the comic. Also solely judging on the trailers, I really want to see this movie!

Lazy Sunday: Post Apocalyptic Edition

I am by no means masochistic nor do I have a bunker full of spam, with the intention of out living everyone with out spam. (No you can't have any) But I do enjoy a good movie where everything goes to all hell. So today I took in three of my favorite sci-fi/survival/horror movies perfect for your own lazy Sunday.

First up is the definitive 1968 Zombie classic George Romero's Night of the Living Dead. I've herd over and over people whining "I can't watch black and white movies" well if you can't watch movie than you just don't like movies period. If you have never seen this ultra classic, written and directed by the man who re-invigorated the zombie genre and is either directly responsible for, or inspires just about all today's zombie movies, please, please, please do yourself a favor and watch this movie.



Next up is Alfonso Cuarón's Children of Men, Set in 2027 in a world where no babies have been born in over a decade. With people panicking and societies crumbling, Theo (Clive Owen) must escort the first pregnant woman to safety. An action packed epic with a great performance by Michael Caine.



Last we have one of my absolute favorite Sci-Fi movies of all time, 1973's Soylent Green. Superstar Charlton Heston plays a cop in 2022, where overpopulation has endangered the worlds food source. With a blockbuster performance by not only Heston, but Edward G. Robinson as well, if you've never seen Soylent Green you don't know Sci-Fi

This trailer is more focused on Robert Downey Jr., in all his Tony Stark like ways.

Warner Brothers to join Hulu

Embedded TV fans rejoice! Bruce Rosenblum, Warner Brothers TV's president said in a talk with Stanford law students that a deal with Hulu is "imminent." As you may or may not know I am a big fan and an avid watcher of Hulu.com, so I am excited about the addition of WB TV shows and possibly some movies. This article also speaks to Warner Brothers future use of celluar content. We may soon see Smallville and Reaper on Qualcomm based MediaFLO, which provides us full TV shows on cell phones via Verizon Wireless' V-Cast Mobile TV (and AT&T's service, whenever they get around to launching it.) If you haven't gotten an invite to Hulu's private beta yet, no worries TechCrunch thinks they will be out of beta and available to everyone in March! But if you can't wait that long than here's an episode of the Simpsons to hold you over.



And here's the Arrested Development pilot because, well, I love this show!

Consumer Advocacy Blogs You Should Know About

In today's world of recalls, shady CEOs, outsourced customer service and general disrespect for your dollar attitude, I think it's nice to have a few people looking out for you. Here's a couple of my favorite customer advocacy blogs, which I recommend checking on a quasi-regular basis.

Gawker Media's Consumerist

the U.S. Public Interest Research Groups has a good site and blog

WashingtonPost.com's The Checkout by Annys Shin

And Joe Consumer, which I have no idea of who runs it

G.I. Joe Movie Enemy Revealed!

This is the first leaked photo from the final scene of G.I. Joe the movie!

Carbonite Han Solo Desk: And other Tom Spina Designs

If I told you that I had heard of Tom Spina today, I'd be lying and the inner fanboy in me is kicking myself for it.
According to TomSpinaDesigns.com

"Tom Spina Designs provides custom sculpture, furniture, mannequins, movie prop and wardrobe displays & restoration and other unique items for collectors, home theaters, museums, restaurants and more!"

Apparently Tom Spina has a decent gallery of restoration project as well as custom funiture and scupltures, also a large collection of haunted house items which are for sale if you have a lot of space and neighborhood children (and their parents) to scare.

Being the star wars nut that I am, I found the Han Solo desk and the Max Rebo Band scuplture the most facnating.

Lazy Sunday: Get up and be lazy edition

If you read this blog on even a semi-regular bases you know that I am a big advocate for enjoying a Sunday afternoon by lounging around and watching a movie. Well this week I suggest going to the movies and being lazy. I got off my bum and went to see Be Kind Rewind this weekend and am so glad I did. Michel Gondry's Be Kind Rewind is quirky comedy with a lot of heart.

Due to an attempt to sabotage the power plant (which he thinks is controlling his brain), sweet hearted moron Jerry (Jack Black) becomes magnetized and accidentally erases all the VHS tapes in the store where his best friend Mike (Most Def) has been left in charge for the week. When the owner Mr. Fletcher (Danny Glover) asks his friend Miss Falewicz (Mia Farrow) to check on the store, the boys decide the best option is to re-record the movie with themselves as the stars. Miss Falewicz's knucklehead nephew watches the tape and demands more "Sweeded" movies. The re-shot movies become so popular Jerry and Mike with the help of the the honest Alma (Melonie Diaz) try to save their not so historic building from the developers.
Even though Be Kind Rewind is a "feel good" comedy, its message is very grounded. There is no shortage of laughs though, I laughed out loud, a lot!
I highly recommend this movie, the only drawback is if you haven't seen the movies they are "sweeding" you may not get all the gags. For a movie about a couple of knuckleheads directing movies, the direction is exceptional.


This movie will go in my collection when it hits DVD
but don't wait for me to loan it to you, go see it!

Also check out the official movie site, where the proceed to "Sweed" the internet with a great mock Google site and is full of great clips from the movie. Check out the offical site HERE

Here's the preview for Be Kind Rewind




Below we have a few of Be Kind Rewind's "Sweeded" videos

Here's Robocop "Sweeded"

Very funny Alan Moore tribute music video!

Thanks to Shawn from Naked Imagination for this!

Comic Movie Roumor Round Up

There have been a lot of rumors and leaks this past week and here's a quick synopses to keep you caught up.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Not only has the above photo been realsed this week but several new casting roumors have been reported (or blogged). Ain't it cool news reports Ryan Reynolds will be playing the smarth mouthed mercarny Deadpool. Super Hero Hype announced that Taylor Kitsch will be playing that crafty cajun Gambit. And in from left field, slashfilm wrote that rapper will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas will play John Wraith a mutant teleporter who teamed worked with Wolverine during his Canadian espionage days. (even stranger they say his group mate Taboo will play an unknown role in the Chung Li movie?!)

Batman: The Dark Knight

This Photo was posted by darkhorizons and is not only a toy of Aaron Eckhart as Two-Face, but what life actually looks like out of Two-Face's bad eye.

Watchmen

Watchmen has wrapped shooting and begun what I can only imagine is an immense editing phase. Lucky for us Zack Snyder wasn't too busy to drop this new Rorschach still on us!

Where the Wild Things Are: A first look at the movie

This clip was leaked today and it appears to be from the upcoming Where the Wild Things Are, movie from Dave Eggers and Spike Jonze. I don't know if it's the real deal or not, but it looks good! I for one am very much looking forward to this movie. Acording to ain't it cool news Carrol (the big guy) is voiced by James Gandolfini, and this obviously is not James Gandolfini. The movie isn't due out till 2009 but we can start dreaming today.

Read Warren Ellis and Paul Duffield's weekely Freak Angel online for free

The new free weekly online comic Freak Angel from the extraordinarily talent of Warren Elis and Paul Duffield looks great and has gotten my attention is just 6 pages. It seems to be a post apocalyptic super hero steam punk comic, which in my opinion there just are not enough of on the planet. I don't know how I'll manage with just 6 pages at a time, I just may have to stay away for several months and check back for a longer read. I'm sure if this is even a marginal success, I'm sure there will be a paper collection of some sort. I must say I really admire the effort of new distribution method, if it dies well I'm sure we'll see a more web comics like this.

Check out this weeks edition HERE
Still not sure? Than read the first page below first.

Update: We have just added a Freak Angels widget below, so now you can always get there from here.

Now that the WGA strike is over, who won?

TheFutonCritic has a great breakdown of the final agreement the WGA and the AMPTP settled on. The guide is well put together, and even offers a comparison to the old contract. Was it worth it? You let me know.

Check out the guide HERE

Batman: Gotham Knight Direct to DVD Anime

The WB is releasing a Batman DVD seemingly similar to the Animatrix (they even reference it in this promo) The DVD looks good, but this promo is lite on the action and heavy on people talking about the action. Batman: Gotham Knight seems like a very cool way for Warner Brothers to make an extra buck while adding to the viral marketing of an upcoming blockbuster movie.

HBO.com has an interesting interview with Michelle Paress, who plays Alma Gutierrez on The Wire. She tells of her very humble acting roots, apparently she auditioned for the role of Carcetti's secretary but David Simon had other ideas. It also seems like I'm not as up on my Wire trivia as I thought I was, I didn't know she was married to Larry Gilliard Jr, who played one of my favorite roles in the wire, D'Angelo Barksdale. Check out the interview HERE

If you are at all like me, and just can't talk about the Wire enough, HBO.com wants you to tell them your predictions for the end of the series. Let them know what you think HERE.

Well whatever they decide to do, I'd like to see the stories continue in comic book form, similarly to Buffy the Vampire slayer, or Star Trek. I know The Wire isn't science fiction, but Simon has created his own "universe" with it's own set of rules and physics, it's a world where Carcetti and O'Malley can both exist (Carcetti mentioned him in a dedication to new development on the waterfront, that isn't a grain peir. (I loved that scene) Also in Simon's Baltimore Murphy Homes stood for five years longer than they lasted in this reality. Ok maybe it's too fanboy, but I can dream can't I?

Trailer Posts: Not your typical Indiana Campbell and the Kung Fu Big Foot edition

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull



Ok so I love Kung Fu movies, I think pandas are pretty cool and I actually enjoy most of Jack Black's movies so I want to check this one out...



Ok time for another confession, I love Bruce Campbell more than I should any man, especially a man I have never met so, I'm definitely checking this one out.



As far as indie flicks go this one looks like fun, unfortunately it's only showing at SWSX right now, so check it out if you can, if you can't than you, like me will just have to wait to see Not Your Typical Big Foot Movie

Remember the live action Tick?

No? then do yourself a favor and watch this pilot. Ah, I miss the tick.

TV Feud continues? Wayne Brady created Stephen Colbert?

You Decide

The Incredible Hulk vs. Omar?

In an interview with allhiphop.com Michael K. Williams tells of his upcoming roles in various movies by saying

"I got two films coming up this year, one is The Hulk 2 with Ed Norton, and I'm in the new Spike Lee joint called Miracle At St. Anna, which is based on the Buffalo Soldier story of the 92nd infantry. I just booked this new Picture called The Road with Charlize Theron. I'm excited about that and eager to work with her. I'm just cranking them out little by little."

From this I can deduce two things, 1) That Michael K. Williams is in the new Incredible Hulk movie. And 2) He will reprise his role as Omar Little , every one's favorite shotgun wielding, drug dealer robbing, tell Marlo it's personal, the game is the game vigilante from Baltimore and be the only person able to stop Bruce (sometimes David) Banner from destroying Pimlico and all of Park Heights! I thought of it so it must be true! Besides as I understand it Edward Norton had total re-write privileges for the Incredible Hulk and is from Columbia MD. Which is a suburb of Baltimore (Well Baltimore is closer than DC anyway)

Check out the interview for yourself HERE

Stewart vs. Colbert vs. O'Brien Fight Video! Genius!

Last night I witnessed what I believe was the best post strike TV! Without their writers the collective late night talk show hosts Conan O'Brien, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert brought to a head their recent feud regarding "who created" Republican Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee. I know there will be many haters, naysayers and ne'erdowell who will complain that it was just a giant waste of time. To them I say it was a giant funny waste of time! Now make sure yo have 25 min and 58 sec to laugh, or you could play them all at once.

It started last night on The Daily Show



It continued on The Colbert Report



And it concluded on Late Night with Conan O'Brien with not only the inevitable brawl but a special message from Mike Huckabee

Happy Super Fat Tuesday!

Thats right this year both Super Tuesday and Fat Tuesday falls on the same day, Today!

Well here in lovely Baltimore, MD we are not voting till next week, and don't celebrate Fat Tuesday, well not like New Orleans anyway. America's first Catholic Basilica is located here in Baltimore but no drunken people in the street or girls flashing, well no more than any other Tuesday in Fell's Point, Federal Hill or Canton, so I thought I'd leave you with a special pic on this special day, enjoy...

Trailer Posts: Did Morgan Spurlock find Osama bin Laden?

Well honestly I hope not, because if he did and he waited until the movie was cut and released to tell anyone, let's say I'd be more than a little disappointed with Mr. Spurlock! Even though I'm pretty certain this movie is sans bin Laden I am very excited to see it. I don't know when I became actually interested in seeing documentaries on the big (but not that Big) screen. Ah well here's the trailer judge for yourself:

Is this the Crystal Skull?

Ok so ActionFigureInsider.com is posting the pic below saying it came for a promo form a Japinese Toy company who is apparently making key chains of Indy's iconic artifacts (well before this) has an image of what is believed to be The Crystal Skull! Do we know for sure? No of course not, but we can speculate.

Update: Sorry folks but the powers that be have their magic "lawyer power" to mysteriously remove all images of the trinket key chains from the interwebs! Here's a promotional poster with a skull looking flame thingie instead!

Trailer Post: Super Bowl Edition

During what I thought was one of the more exciting Super Bowls in a few years you may have missed some of the great movie trailers. Lucky for you I have a few of my favorites below! I know the Super Bowl had a lot of great adds, but forgive me if I get more excited about a new Iron Man movie than a six pack of Bud(I drink Natty Boh or Yuengling, it's a regional thing I guess).

Now on to the trailers!

First up we have the Iron Man trailer, while I enjoyed seeing more of the crimson avenger, I think the last trailer got me more excited. It was probably the absence of Ozzy's Iron Man amongst Downey's Iron Man



Next up is another movie adaptation of a comic book, Mark Millar's Wanted. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if your over the age of 18 and you haven't read this graphic novel, you need to.(The book contains some adult themes)I must also say I am a big Common fan, I have been since his classic Hip-Hop album Resurrection(Which you also NEED to own)



Last up we have an adaption not from a comic book, but a book I love none the less, Prince Caspian. I find it odd the order in which Disney is releasing the cinematic versions of C.S.Lewis's classics (Prince Caspian is the 4th in the series)but hold out great hope Disney releases them all.



During the Super Bowl we also saw trailers for Leatherheads, which looks funny and Wall-E, which looks like a young Johnny 5 from Short Circuit.

Lazy Sunday: Super Bowl Shuffle edition

Welcome to another Lazy Sunday! This Sunday I plan, like most Americans to watch the Super Bowl, while I'm not that real interested in either team, I will be rooting for the under dog NY Giants fr two reasons. First because the last time they were at the big game they were defeated by my Baltimore Ravens, but more importantly I'm rooting for the Giants because the New England Patriots cheated. While I would love to witness a perfect season to tell my grandkids about, I find it inherently worthless if I need to tell them that they got there by cheating. I know a lot of people will say they would have had a perfect season without cheating, but we will never really know now will we? If they win the whole season needs to be marked with an *! Now they are even being accused of spying on the Rams before Super Bowl XXXVI. It's hard enough to convince my self to watch baseball any more, if Camden Yards wasn't such a nice stadium to hang out in I may have abandoned that sport all together.

Now let us go back to a simpler time, before we knew how corny it was for our sports celebrities to rap
