Our ep opens with Jon the Bastard having been kicked like a bag of shit from the woods all the way to the barn. This is pretty much the life of a Stark these days. It turns out the mystery of Craster’s boys isn’t much of a mystery, so it’s a wonder why he’s so […]
Sexy Fandom reports that io9 editor Annalee Newitz and Esther Inglis-Arkell are now hosting io9‘s new web TV show. Annalee Newitz is perhaps best known now for editing SF blog io9, but I first came across her writing in features she did on the junction of sex and technology (one of my favorite junctions!) She […]
Gothic.net has posted a few more interesting Panel of Experts features. The most recent questions are Do you enjoy novels or anthologies more? and What are your favorite monsters and what specifically appeals to you about them? I felt inadequately special saying vampires, but I was surely not alone with this answer. It is kind […]
Given that it is pretty much the best thing on television right now, I’m not exactly surprised that Game of Thrones has been renewed for a Season 3 on HBO. With Boardwalk Empire’s wretched season finale and few feature films coming to premium cable in a timely fashion, I wonder how much of an uptick […]
Our episode of Game of Thrones begins with Arya, looking emo and pissing in a creek. Yep, that kind of sets the tone. The city watch has sent a pair of utter humps up the king’s road after Gendry, and predictably they get owned and sent packing. This earns Gendry a couple of stares and […]
If they could get away with it, this ep would be called something like “Old Familiar Faces (Not Currently on Spikes)”. We get to catch up with all last season’s survivors, all looking at the same red comet, all wondering what the living fuck they have gotten themselves into. We start with King Joffrey, who […]
I love crazy special effects makeup and I love before and after pics. I recently watched the whole second season of SyFy’s Face/Off back to back in a TiVo watching orgy of monster-making competition. When Forrest Black sent me the link to this Wicked Pictures BTS video, he pointed out that it was like a […]
BlueBlood.net is looking for a fantasy expert to write about season 2 of Game of Thrones. BlueBlood.net is seeking someone who has access to HBO and is planning on watching the show and would like to write up each episode as it airs. Writer in New York time zone preferred. WordPress and/or Photoshop experience a […]
I got a free six month Hulu subscription when I replaced my first gen TiVo with a new one. The new TiVo ties in to Netflix and Hulu and Amazon movies and such. The Hulu interface is comedically bad, counterintuitive and with like eight clicks to get to anything and commercials shown during shows, but […]
Gothic.net just posted the Top 10 Horror Films of 2011. Do you agree with the picks? What scared you (in a good way) this past year?
