This year the entirety of my Halloween decorations was a mini pumpkin my kid brought home from day care and the Monster Mash repeatedly playing in my subconscious. Next year I'm doing this with my house, except for the whole Black Eyed Peas awful song thing. I'm thinking more AC/DC or Pantera. That'll wake up those little weiner kids across the street.

Tron: Derezzed
If we can get a Daft Punk video for the upcoming Tron sequel, I'm pretty sure a new Soul Coughing video for the yet to be filmed The Last Starfighter sequel isn't completely out of the question.

Having a 11 month old that just doesn't want to sleep like a normal human has provided me with ample opportunities to watch absolute garbage TV shows and movies at 1 in the morning. With "..the Blurst of Times" I'll tell you all about whatever horrible abortion of a TV show I watched the night before.
Zombie Strippers is one of those movies that really delivers on it's title. At least I assume it does, I mean I've never actually been in a strip club or worse yet, seen a real zombie.
Now if you missed Zombie Strippers in the theater let me tell you the small screen hardly does it justice. If you really want to appreciate how god-awful Jenna Jameson looks these days you really need to check it out in Imax, or at least in digitally projected 3-d. It also helps if you've read the book before hand, the plot has a lot of twists and turns, and if you don't pay close attention you'll get confused. Think Inception but with breast implants.
On a scale of 1 to when I fell asleep this movie scores a very respectable 40 minutes. I mean lets face it, zombies and strippers are going to hold your attention for quite a while. It wasn't until the zombies started stripping that I called it a night.

It's been reported that the only thing holding up a Ghostbusters 3 movie is that Bill Murray doesn't want to do it. So either he's finally changed his mind (which would be awesome but kinda unlikely) or he's just messing with fans (far far more likely and kinda dickish too).
I bet that somehow this is all Rick Moranis's fault.

So the little lady and I bought our son his very first Halloween costume the other day. Lucky for me the costume shop was out of the one my wife wanted and we got the one I really wanted. Mother F'in Darth Vader. Obviously It says a lot about me that I think dressing our 11 month old up as the baddest Sith Lord ever is super cute. Of course it says even more about me that I insisted we also buy him a light saber, because without one what's the point? And before you ask, yes I made sure we bought him one that actually looks like Darth Vader's, not Luke's or Obi Wan's.
oh God, I'm such a geek...
The good news is I'm not alone! Check out this mini gallery of kids forced to wear stupid crap all because their parents are obsessive dorks.

Community writers are on another level
On last weeks Community (which if you don't watch you're stupid) Abed showed up at the end and was all “not much” when one of the characters asked him what he’d been up to. Well That wasn't entirely true, Abed has his own storyline playing out in the background of certain scenes during the show. I only noticed part of it when I saw it the first time. The YouTube clip above has the whole thing edited down.
How is this show getting beat by Big Bang Theory in the ratings every week? It's cause Americans are stupid right?

Comics are getting cheaper?

Both DC and Marvel Comics announced Thursday that they will be slashing price points from $3.99 to $2.99 on huge proportions of their publishing catalogs.
ComicsAlliance
I've been collecting comics for about 23 years now and this is the first time any of the major publishers have actually cut prices. Now it's not all sunshine and lollipops, both DC and Marvel are expected to cut the amount of story pages for each comic from 22 to 20 and they're still going to gouge you on one shots or "prestige" books with extra shiny covers. Still, when most books went from 2.99 to 3.99 almost overnight I started to cut back big time. On any give month I still buy somewhere between 20 and 25 comics. Do the math and you'll see its a difference of about 25 dollars a month. That's a lot of Diapers and forumla...
Actually that's not a lot of diapers and formula. I swear, this kid is costing me a fortune. Maybe if DC and Marvel keep dropping prices I'll just diaper him with whatever Judd Winick is writing.

Papercraft Star Wars
This video for Jeremy Messersmith's song Tatooine is pretty sweet. In fact it's way WAY better than the song. I don't want to cast aspersions without knowing the guy, but I'll bet you my star wars pez collection Jeremy Messersmith wears skinny jeans and has a neck tattoo.

Most of the stuff from this commercial is footage we've already seen from the SDCC trailer, but does that really matter? 3 extra seconds of Walking Dead footage has got to be better than whatever nerdy garbage I would have posted otherwise, amirite?

There were two big news stories in comicbookdom yesterday. First that Warner Bros is in negotiations with David E Kelly to reboot the Wonder Woman TV show and second that Zack Snyder has signed on to direct the next Superman movie. I really wish either of these stories tickled my spider sense but I could really care less. It's not that I don't like either character, I just would rather read the comics.
Superman is so ridiculously overpowered that he comes across as kinda cheesy on the big screen. I mean I love Superman II as much as the next nerd but at the end of the movie he slips Lois Lane a mickey that makes her forget like a month of her life, and we're just supposed to sit there and say "oh yeah, that seems plausible". In the comics Superman having near godlike powers works. Writers and artists can stretch what's plausible and realistic to extreme boundaries. In the movies you just can't do that without losing the audience (Superman III and IV anyone?). I guess that's why they're reportedly bringing back General Zod. The only person that can realistically stand toe to toe with Supes is another Kryptonian.
Now a new Wonder Woman TV seems like such an awful idea that I think I'm becoming more interested. There's so many things that can go wrong here. First off David E. Kelly, wtf? How do you even connect those 2 dots? Second, third and fourth off Superhero tv shows are pretty much just awful. Have you seen 2 minutes of No Ordinary Family? Just imagine Heroes but with a worse budget and more insulting dialogue. TV is an awful medium for actual capes and spandex style superheroes, just ask the Flash, Birds of Prey, Night Man or MANTIS. Better yet, just as the 4 people that still watch Smallville.

Get Bay'ed

Isaiah Mustafa is your celebrity nerd of the Century, of the week.
Isaiah Mustafa (the old spice guy) has been lobbying teh internets to play Luke Cage in a movie that Marvel probably has no plans on making. He's released some photos of him as Luke Cage, he went to SDCC dressed as him and he has the obligatory facebook campaign (I'm already a follower). Now here he is in an officially licensed Marvel comics web series thing that I didn't know existed. spoiler alert, he rides Beta Ray Bill like a horse.
