This is Matt Fraction speaking at w00tstock at SDCC.
I wish I could say more about this clip, but I haven’t watched it yet because I’m working on a major motion picture shooting in Lake Placid and I’m just putting this here for posterity.
[also at Comics Alliance].

Lake Placid's Ironman Triathlon.
Every year, since 1998, mentally deficient people pay two thousand dollars in entrance fees to swim 4 miles, bike 117 miles, and run a marathon (26 miles). Why anyone would want to do this is beyond me. Every year, the spectators (or as I like to call them: Ironwannabes) make use of our driveway to cheer on their batshit retarded friends or family who are competing. They also like to make use...

Excelsior!
My lady woke me up this morning by calling to say she loved my letters (I’ve been writing her a letter every week while I’ve been out of town) and now I’m just feeling awesome. Alright! Today’s gonna be a good day, so let’s go.

Tumblr Is On Fire. Now Over 6 Million Users, 1.5... →
samhumphries:
For the first time, Tumblr is now a top 50 site in the U.S. in terms of traffic as gauged by Quantcast. And only half of Tumblr’s 6.25 million users are in the U.S. Those users are now posting some 4.5 million posts a day — that’s up from 650,000 new posts a day a year ago.
More impressive numbers in the link.
Big ups, dudes.
Seriously, congrats all around.

Kelly Sue on Project: God Loves Batman. →
This is muy important everyone. Read the text below from KS:
Okay, so, Fred Phelps and his family of hateful bigots are getting a lot of press for their planned appearance at (or near?) the San Diego Comic Con. The man lives for attention and confrontation. If you see him there, don’t sneer, don’t scream, don’t confront, don’t point and laugh–DON’T ACKNOWLEDGE. Ignore, ignore, ignore,...

Conan O'Brien's Emmy Category Won't Be Televised →
lumber:
shaneblog:
Not NBC, but the Emmy producers (who have quite a lot of unordered pizzas headed their way) have decided against airing the announcement of the nominees and then the winner of the late night category.
I’m engulfed in rage.
Un-fucking-believable.

And Jesus Fuck she probably has the perfect voice for that character. Have you read her movie reviews? They’re like someone threw some words at a wall to see what stuck and well, Lady Deadpool is like...

Robert Kirkman launches Image imprint to help new... →
This is pretty great. Especially considering the fact that Kirkman is using his influence to leverage books across entertainment and I don’t think anyone can do it better than him considering The Walking Dead is coming to AMC and all the crazy critical-nerdgasms that occur in the press whenever something related to AMC hits the brain melter.

And this is something that is right up my alley, being the trailer for “Howl”, the indie film I’m dying to see right next to “The Killer Inside Me”.

a post about 3D film. move along, nothing to see.
Yeah this is going to be another one of those little bitchy rants about the racket that is 3D film. So, if you’re not interested in that just move right along. Over the weekend I saw “Despicable Me” which was cute and adorable but not terribly good. This was the first movie I’ve actually seen in 3D in the movie theater. My previous experience was with...
