Aspiring writer. I post about a bunch of dumb stuff like Star Trek, James Bond, the NBA, Resident Evil, and The Challenge on MTV.

"Anara and the Prince" is a children's story I wrote during a time when I had writer's block working on my novel.
It's about a young girl who discovers a magical land and life's biggest blessing: family.
It's full of heart, imagination, and beautiful art.
It's available on Amazon!

Oscar Isaac is open to returning to Star Wars but “not so open to working with Disney”
“I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great”
(Via GQ)

Back when I worked for Sam Goody some 20+ years ago, we had a primitive computer that only accessed GameFAQs and Allmusic for customer questions. GameFAQs still looks the same today as it did then, and I love it
Hey, happy 30th birthday GameFAQs! Launched on November 5th, 1995!
The earliest scrape I can find on Wayback is December 1996, but I doubt the site changed much. But yes, here it is in its earliest days as the Video Game FAQ Archive!

Still need more baseball?
We found a CD in our archives containing dozens of unused voice lines from MLB Slugfest 20-03 rejected by the MLB. Here's some of our favorites.

I think the future of Star Wars, should it continue stories past the latest trilogy, should flat out ignore it. Let it exist, but don't pull anything from it going forward.

This brings me back to before I had a gaming pc. I was one of the sickos playing CS on the original Xbox.
The player pool was so small that I developed grudges against specific players. I will never forgive “clownknife” or “R0llingR0ck” for their past transgressions.

"Fresh", sealed copies of Super Mario RPG actually have a unique title screen. This screen is lost permanently on that cartridge after playing and saving just once, and can not be restored without tinkering with the cartridge or waiting decades for the save battery to run out.

I know going into this game that Sunderland is going to lose, but I'm just happy to see them playing teams like Chelsea again.

Just watched a fan-edit of Ironheart that turned the six-episodes into a movie, and it was pretty good!

At what point do one of these streamers market themselves as the service that stays affordable?
Peacock should definitely call out Netflix, Disney, and HBO Max over their annual price increases and then market all of the shows and movies they have.
Paramount Plus?

Bond films are my comfort food. And what's odd, is that I am consistently drawn to the Connery era. I'm not sure why. I swear I've seen Dr. No about six times in the last six years.

I've started testing PS3 games to see if online multiplayer still works. Here are my results so far. I'll update this post as I try more!
