SH:AGOT (or Shagot as I will henceforth call it) is a very fun, bright, lively, and enjoyable flick. It lacks, however, a certain magic cohesiveness that the 2009 Sherlock Holmes had. The 2009 movie had a freshness and newness that made it exciting and delightful, which is almost impossible for a sequel like this to recapture. What it does recapture is the spirit of fun and excitement and the excellent cast chemistry. [Read my full review]
If you haven’t seen NBC’s Community, well, why the eff not? It is my favorite show on the TeleVision right now, but it has been off the air for the past three months. Well, that changes tonight, Thursday March 15th, when a new episode of Community airs at 8:00!
Listen, I know you’re still mad at NBC because of the whole Conan fiasco, but don’t blame Community for the idiocy in charge of the network. But do get mad at the idiots who took this show off the air for three months!
What has happened in the months since idiots in charge of NBC unceremoniously dumped on the show? Lookit here:
And now that the show is back look what it has in store for you:
Seriously, if you’re not watching this show and loving it I don’t understand you. Find the episodes and catch up as quickly as you can, because Community will Chang your life for the better.
More French awesomeness, this time an artist who takes plastic bottles and other detritus and transforms them into incredible robot sculptures: Bottlerobots!
Here is un petit échantillon (a small sample) of what has been created:
Western Washington freaked out a little today because some snow fell in mid-March. It is funny. Don’t people remember that the last two years in a row it snowed in late April? Also, it was well above freezing (at least in my neck of the woods) all day and is expected to stay that way, so it isn’t like this is going to stick around for long.
But still, it is pretty. And there were some impressive, quarter-sized flakes. I filmed this through the front window of my work at about 9:30 this morning:
Now next time it snows I want everybody just to take a deep breath and relax. Don’t act like you’ve never seen it snow before. Y’know, be careful out there (of course), but I don’t want three out of every four Facebook status updates to be snow freak-outs.
