Warcraft Wednesday: Wandering Into Wrath

Yes, I know it’s late.  Quiet, you. World of Warcraft’s second expansion launched last week.  I’ve been enjoying the edges of it very much.  i say the edges just because I don’t have unlimited time to spend playing, so my brother and I have been playing in little chunks at a time.  I just wanted [...]

A Virtual Zombie Invasion

                  It’s long over by now, but recently Blizzard unleashed a zombie plague on World of Warcraft as part of the launching festivities for this year’s expansion.  It was pretty fun, I think, but it became quite a divisive topic among players. It all started when ‘Conspicuous [...]

Consume This: The Muppet Show

The Muppet Show has to be one of the greatest television shows of all time. Despite its rather dated material, it still retains humor and can raise laughs from me even now. I’ve heard rumors that people have been talking about a new version of the show, but whoever decides to pick it up has [...]

Square and Nintendo’s Super Love Child

Once upon a time in the halcyon days of the Super Nintendo, Square and Nintendo combined in a rare collaboration of talent to produce one of my favorite games: Super Mario RPG.  Since it was recently released on the Wii’s Virtual Console, I decided it was a good time to bring to light some of [...]

Giant Robots

For the longest time, I avoided the giant robot genre of anime.  I associated it with the side of anime fandom that I was trying to stay away from – the ones who dressed up as characters, wrote the ‘who would win in a fight’ things, etc.  Of course, I have since learned that that’s [...]

Encounters With a WoW Newbie

As I’ve pointed out before (several times), I still consider myself pretty new to World of Warcraft.  However, ever since my brother and I made the hop to Outland for the content introduced in the first expansion, we’ve run into more and more people who are not very good at the game.  It’s somewhat weird, [...]

Wrath of the Something or Other

So, if you’re a World of Warcraft player, and you haven’t been living under a rock or out of the country or something like that, you know that the new expansion for the game is due out before the end of the year. I’m not sure how I feel about that.  Actually, that’s a lie.  [...]

The Film Crew

Three Film Crew movies are currently available for all your free hilarious viewing pleasure on Hulu. Then, after you watch those, go hit up Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic.

Humans Must Return to Space

This post may be alternatively titled "Why Don’t We Do Anything Cool Anymore?" Since I’ve spent most of my life after the fall of the Soviet Union, I’ve never really had the chance to live through any of the grand events in space exploration.  These days most of what we do is routine.  It may [...]

Babylon 5 Seasons 1 & 2

The introduction of Hulu into my web IQ has been both a boon to my entertainment consumption and a detriment to my free time.  However, while I’m doing other things like play Warcraft or browse the internet, I’ll load up the next episode in my queue. What started this whole renaissance of internet television for [...]
