NOTE: I tried to post this yesterday, but my web host seemed to go down. Hence, this is a day late.
The morning started off with sleeping in a bit—there were no 9:00 AM panels that grabbed our interest more than sleep did, and so it was at 10:00 AM that we hit up the “Movements [...]
Sunday evening was the main event—the Hugo Awards presentation. Before that, being human beings of a hungry sort, we decided to seek out food.
This proved to be more problematic that we could have imagined. We first decided to go back to Le Steak Frites, but found them to be booked full until 8:30 or later, [...]
The fourth day of Worldcon was also a big one, and quite full.
We started at 9 AM once again, with a panel on “How Not to be a Jerk Online”. I went to this because John Scalzi—whose blog and work I am a fan of—was one of the panelists, and I suspected it was a [...]
After a quick lunch, my girlfriend had hoped to take in the panel on “Montreal Local History”, but it was apparently cancelled. I headed to “Building Realistic Worlds”, but it was so full that there wasn’t even space to stand at the back of the room, so I went to my other option, “How Are [...]
This was a long day, very full of delightful things.
The morning started early, as we went to line up to get tickets for the Neil Gaiman signing. We arrived at about 8:30, and (thankfully) the line was still pretty small then. We got moved around a little bit, but by 9:10 they started handing out [...]
I actually saw this the weekend it was released (two weeks ago, now), but various things conspired against posting about it at that time. I shall now rectify this grave, grave oversight.
I thought it was okay. It entertained me, but didn’t make a whole lot of sense, and there were huge plot holes. It also [...]
In the last issue of The House Always Wins…
The intrepid investigator House had scoped out the Pulp Show and Sale, but that was not the only mission that lay before him. After completing his search there, he set out to the Toronto Reference Library, to battle the faceless hordes of the 2009 Toronto Comic Arts [...]
In the last few weeks, now that the girlfriend has been reliably returned from her travels, my movie-going has increased dramatically. (It has also helped that they have started to put out non-serious films, and are slowly warming up for the summer movies.)
So, I took her to see Dragonball: Evolution, not because I had much [...]
…This run of PvP comics is freakin’ sweet.
Sadly, the tune referenced in the title of this post did not appear in the latest adventure of the Hulk on the big screen, that that is perhaps the only reference to a previous incarnation that was not included in The Incredible Hulk . Despite this tragic shortcoming, it was still a good movie.
This movie [...]
