So anyhoo...
Been busy with writing and a bunch of other stuff but have had the chance to enjoy two things which I pass on to anyone reading:
a) Doomsday (film)
Did you like Dog Soldiers? Descent? Do you like Mad Max? Escape from NY? Would you like to see the maker of Dog Soldiers and Descent do his version of Mad Max and Escape from NY? Me too. That's why I went to see Doomsday. This film is likely to be criminally misunderstood and under appreciated, like a post-apocalyptic version of Slither or Shoot 'Em Up. It is one of the few films I feel comfortable saying that if you didn't at least like it a bit...you didn't get it.
b) The Blade Itself (book)
Very fun new fantasy series written by newcomer Joe Abercrombie. For one thing, this book has the best wizard ever and I'm not usually a huge fan of the wize old wizard character. It also has one of the top 5 barbarian characters ever. Logen Ninefingers might not beat out Conan or Kull, but he's a contender.
