Emotional Announcement

Nov17 by windiebird

Direct from SciFi Wire, it appears as if casting calls have been opened for a rapidly developing Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight motion comic! If you aren’t as excited about this bit of news as I am, you obviously need to buy some KY and get cracking.

As mentioned on the podcast, we love an animated comic. You get the art of the original source with some action and vocal flair added to bring it all to life. After being first impressed with the Watchmen motion comic and now the Spider-Woman and Astonishing X-Men productions, I am absolutely vibrating with antici…pation. I’d love to see Nathan Fillion and Lucy Lawless make vocal appearances in some way or another but new talent always needs a chance to shine. And Anthony Stewart Head will always be the only Giles to me. Who would you want to play whom in the motion comic?

Thanks for being a friend (with benefits) to the comics world, Joss <3

Jolie Me

Seriously, this woman is amazing. I could just make a joke about how gorgeous she is or how she could use those knockers to open my door anytime but this woman is so much more than a beautiful face. Her humanitarian efforts with the United Nations High Council Commissioner (Gordon) for Refugees as well as her efforts and statements concerning many aspects of social equality and justice instantly place her as one of my favorite modern actresses. She’s a vocal supporter of gay rights (and human rights, importantly) even choosing a domestic partnership with her spouse, Brad Pitt. Her more famous comic-related movies are Tomb Raider, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Beowulf & Kung Fu Panda. If you haven’t seen A Mighty Heart, then you just get yourself to Netflix pronto, buster. Angelina, I think you’re fantastic.

Bi-Beastiality

Nov17 by windiebird

What can be said about our featured villain this week? Four eyes, two (three? or four?) heads, six fingers and all the Avian knowledge of culture and warfare. He most notably tried to have Bruce Banner fix the city of his extinct masters after seeing Harpy (Betty Ross stopped shaving for a few weeks) on the wing. Besides his combat knowledge, his android body grants him increased strength, reflexes and durability. Bi-Beast, we salute you. You know, twice.
