Marvel's solicitations for June just came out and I've only just read May's. Sad.
But I'm glad I didn't skip over it because then I wouldn't know about Snowbird's upcoming appearance in Incredible Hercules. You know, Marvel... it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if she were to stick around for a while.
The Forbidden Kingdom
Went to 10,000 BC the other night and saw a huge lobby display for The Forbidden Kingdom. The display made it look like a bad video game movie except that it has both Jackie Chan and Jet Li in it. That's worth gambling on right there even if it ends up sucking.
Fortunately though, the trailer makes it look really good, like it's sort of combining the humor of Chan's movies with the artsy fartsiness of Li's.
The Many Moods of Wonder Woman
Includes: Smug, Pensive, Surrounded by Idiots, and Running in a Nightie. Thank you, Dorian!
Frank Frazetta's Dracula Meets the Wolf Man
Steve Niles is writing the latest comic based on a Frank Frazetta painting: Dracula Meets the Wolf Man. So far, the Frazetta comics have been amazing and this should only raise the bar a bit.
It was Lassie ruined Xena
So, I've been watching Jericho again and was surprised to recognize the guy who plays Constantino, the whacked out mayor of New Bern. When I was watching Jericho last season, I hadn't yet discovered Psych, but now I realize that Constantino is none other than Timothy Omundson, who plays Psych's Carlton Lassiter. But that's not all.
I wanted to make sure that Jericho hadn't switched actors for Constantino and that Omundson had actually played him in the first season too, so I took a trip to IMDB. Sure enough, he had, but the big surprise was when I learned that Omundson also played the character who ruined Xena: Warrior Princess for me.
I can't possibly tell you how much I grooved on Xena up until the point where she and Gabby met Eli and moved to India to become hippies. After that, it was a long, slow descent into crazytown. I'm going to take extra special pleasure every time Shawn and Gus torture Lassiter from now on.
Resident Evil: Degeneration
Not quite the sequel to Extinction I was hoping for, but then, I'm a little fuzzy on whether this is supposed to be a sequel to the Milla Jovovich movies at all. Maybe that one's still coming.
Automatons
This is how humanity dies. Holy crap, that looks cool as hell.
Outlander
And it just gets better. Vikings vs. Aliens.
The Sinai Secret
Bookgasm mentions a book by Gregg Loomis that sounds like enough of a mixture between Indiana Jones and National Treasure that it would have to try really hard to make me not like it.
