Cause We’re Never Getting a Hollywood Version…
Seeing as Universal Pictures has put the kabash on Guillermo Del Toro’s Mountains of Madness project. Student works are probably the best we’re ever going to get when it comes to H.P. Lovecraft’s novella, At The Mountains of Madness. The animation isn’t much to talk about but they do a good job of presenting the story.
Also, an apology for not having a more substantial post today. California’s budgetary issues got in the way of me writing on the Internet. I hope everyone has a wonderful Fourth of July holiday (for those of you in the United States). Everyone else, hope you have a good weekend.
Cracked.com links to an article I wrote!
Two years ago I wrote an article for Gamestooge.com on the assassination of Lord British in Ultima On-line way back in pre-historic past of MMOs: 1997.It’s a fascinating little tidbit of videogame history. Today, Cracked.com linked to the story in one of their own stories: The 7 Biggest Dick Moves in the History of On-line Gaming (Lord British’s assassination is #3 on the list). Gamestooge.com’s Editor-in-Chief, Jonah Falcon, informs me that the article is getting a bunch of traffic. So, go me?
Remember When Star Wars Excited You?
I do, now.
I don’t think I’ll be playing Old Republic. I no longer have the excess cash to spend on a monthly subscription or the time to sink into an MMORPG. I just wanted to share the trailer. Star Wars is at its best when it’s true to its pulp adventure roots.
