When I was working at Loot Crate there were three games that were just like gospel. The Last of Us: Nailed that TV show. Fallout: NAILED THAT ONE TOO. Borderlands... oh no, oh fuck, oh shit.

I have a lot of opinions on movies today. The Tom Cruise/Steven Spielberg era is... interesting. Minority Report is FANTASTIC, that movie is entertaining from beginning to end. War of the Worlds on the other hand... the first 40 or so minutes are great, and then I'm like "ugh, this is exhausting."

I haven't checked but I will tonight.

Sometimes I get mad and wonder why Sunset Boulevard lost Best Picture. And then I remember it came out the same year as All About Eve. Oh... THAT'S WHY.

It's insane that The Thing came in on a 15 million budget. Rob Bottin DID THAT. ON 15 MILLION BUCKS. Incredible.

Rob Bottin transformed Tim Curry into THIS. BRILLIANT.

I'm listening to a podcast on The Thing, and guys I miss Rob Bottin. Rob Bottin is the CRAZIEST motherfucker who has ever done special effects, and he is such a genius. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfdR...

Also when I get depressed (as I am tonight) I talk about songs that make me sad. Tonight, it's this one. Oh, Hutchence, you beautiful motherfucker. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIBv...

I'm not even going to post the JD Fortune clip, because he sang "New Sensation" and that is such an obvious choice. Anyway, they so picked the wrong guy.

Can we talk about where I fell off the cliff with reality TV? It was Rock Star: INXS. Marty sang my favorite INXS song EVER. Made me sob my eyes out. I'm like "THIS IS THE GUY, come on this is your guy." www.youtube.com/watch?v=Asta...
