slow burn to may explosion

April 6th Grindhouse. Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez in a double feature. I’m really more excited about Rodriguez’s Planet Terror half of this movie so I hope it plays second. Im not sure I can take Quentin’s horror car film Death Proof after a chick with a gun for a leg.

Then Behold a week later the kings of absurd invade the big screen. I have a feeling this will be really terrible but I will gladly give the Aqua Teen Hunger Force as much money as they ask for.

April 20th, may have a gem in Simon Pegg’s(Shaun of the Dead) Hot Fuzz. It has Bill Nighy and the british office’s Martin Freeman in it. Should be good. One month till spidey and pirates 3. awesome.

Stargate Sg-1 Cancelled.


Huh. First let me say I’ve never really been a fan of the show, mostly from not having cable and only seeing it scattered episodes on reruns. Plus the whole military thing never really worked for me. But from the outskirts this seemed liked the Sc-fi show that would run forever. It had it’s first chance of cancellation way back in season 5 when Showtime pulled the plug. In came Sci-fi to save the day and the show went on to its now running final 10th season. The actors changed many times even with main star Richard Dean Anderson (yes macgyver) leaving and yet the show continued to plug along. It even produced a spin-off show Stargate Atlantis, which oddly enough Sci-fi just renewed for it’s fourth season. I guess I just got used to the thought that Stargate would run on the cable network forever. I mean what did they have besides Battlestar Galactica that anyone wanted to see? Giant Snakes from Alctratraz part 3? It must of come down to money. Think about it. You’ve been producing this show for how long now? Ten years. Your going to want to get paid. In fact the producers are now saying the show will return in some format, (my bet is a movie, either cinema or direct to dvd style) and either way that means larger cash for less work than a weekly series. As much as I’m curious and maybe a little saddened that one more sci-fi show has left the airways, I’m also wondering if in this day and age, any show will last as long as Sg-1 did. It was a nice run. Enjoy your ten seasons.

But where elese could you see a Butter Cow or yes even a Superman made completely out of butter. Too weird. Pretty fun time though, and ate way too much as usual.Feet are tired. Went to funny book store when I got home. No more copies of Fell left for me. rats. it’s not a wenesday without funny books, but hey did i mention the butter superman?

deadwood on dvd,


about half way through the second season of deadwood on dvd. it’s such a good show and I wonder why they got pulled after the current third season from HBO. Do they jump the shark later this year and get weird? I just don’t see the quality going downhill.
Ian Mcshane as Swearagen should be winning awards.
