The Tits of a Goose!

Today I got punched in the face by a drunk while at work. Oh the joys of it all, eh?

But in other news all is well. I suggest you click here to see a sneak peek of the new Hellboy cartoon thats being made. I think it looks rather good, but not as good as this, which is also by Mike Mignola & features the voice(s) of David Hyde-Pierce & Paul Giamatti.

Speaking of Paul Giamatti, he is also doing the voice of a (rather gay) Dr. Satan in this, which should be a hoot.

In other random media news this is interesting. Get over the fact that its 40 minutes of a beardy bloke waffling on & wait for the cool photo software he shows off. Basically he crossed a system he developed for viewing large images quickly & easily with a program that can render photos of a place into a 3D slideshow. Very cool & very future-y.

Apart from that all is cool. I saw A Scanner Darkly recently (how you ask? - *cough* *cough*) and must admit that it is rather good, in a follows the book rather well & doesn't suck kind of way. The rotorscoping makes it though. I honestly don't think it'd be half as good without it. Perhaps the DVD will give us the option. Only Cthulhu knows that & he ain't telling.

At the moment I'm reading The Blind Watchmaker by Richard Dawkins, its about Dawinism & evolution. Its rather good. I believe it had a moving effect on old Douglas Adams. Plus, on a strangely interesting note, Dawkins is married to Lalla Ward, who in addition to playing Time Lady Romana in Doctor Who; was also married, albeit briefly, to Tom Baker.

Speaking of Tom Baker you should all go here. Check out Common People.

Toodles for now.
