Geeky Fanboy: October 2006 Archives
Attention, Robot Chicken fans: a full half-hour of Star Wars-inspired Robot Chicken goodness, financed by Lucasfilm, airing on Superbowl Sunday (probably on a network NOT airing the Superbowl, timed to coincide with the halftime break).
Amazon.com: Dungeons & Dragons: Complete Series
Included in this collectible package is the official "Dungeons & Dragons" hardcover game supplement. Created exclusively for this release by Wizards of the Coast, the Animated Series Handbook is 32 pages of official character profiles with full stats, magic items and a brand new adventure. The adventure is a prelude to the episode "The Dragon's Graveyard," designed to bridge the gap between the game and the animated television series. Also included is an Episode Guide Booklet with show's synopsis, writers, and original air dates.
On Battlestar Galactica, the Commander and XO of the Pegasus are "Lee" and "De."
Wacky.
MAN that's a good show.
The night before I left for Prague, I made time to watch Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which came (a) from Netflix.com and (b) highly recommended.
This is (like Hudson Hawk) a love it or hate it cult hit.
Me? I loved it. Laughed a LOT -- heard more quotable quotes than I can easily count, let alone remember.
Still, this one stuck with me: "Thanks for coming, please stay for the end credits, if you're wondering who the best boy is, it's somebody's nephew, um, don't forget to validate your parking, and to all you good people in the Midwest, sorry we said fuck so much."
I didn't realize I missed last week's Heroes -- I'm playing catch up again -- people are sleeping with people they weren't before, Hiro's in Las Vegas, Claire drowned or something and got better from an AUTOPSY.
Cool: Battlestar Galactica's Season Three starts tonight.
What the...: There's ten "Webisodes" on scifi.com that cover time between the end of Seasons Two and Three? ACK!
Clearly, I need to take a long lunch break, haul my laptop somewhere quiet, and watch em all before tonight.
... And I'll probably be taping BSG regularly -- the first time I've taped a show since Angel went off the air. Wacky. Might have to finally cave in and get a DVR service.
Heroes picked up for a full season.
NBC has given a full-season order for its superhero series Heroes. Heroes is averaging a 5.7 rating among adults aged 18-49 and 13.5 million viewers overall, making it the number-one new series this fall in adults 18-49.
Wait... I like it, but it's not cancelled? I'm confused.
Discworld Cake: Someone got this for their WEDDING, people!
