    Thor - Ragnarok - A Hela Good Time (Insert Groan Here)

    I saw the movie last Friday and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'll admit that I wasn't a huge fan of the two previous Thor movies. Seeing that they were pulling a bastardized Planet Hulk storyline in the trailers, was indeed the hook to get me into this one. Thor's opening conversation with Surtur...

    How do you deal with wasps in your house?

    Are you my daughter? I have long dealt with the occasional wasp in the house. For me, here in a Texas summer, I may get 2-3 a month like this. My daughter does indeed wig out until I chase it down with whatever flyswatter or magazine is handy. They like to build nests in high corners and...

    The Escapist Classic Videos: Apocalypse Lane Ep. 01

    ^^THIS!^^ I have posted at least three times that it would be great to have a new user WebComic contest. There were 210 entries for the contest in 2010 which spawned Critical Miss: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/99026-Webcomic-Contest-Winner-Announced-and-Gallery-Is-Live Or...

    Fortnite Launches Into Paid Early Access, Shows Off New Trailer

    I tripped on this and hurt my shin. OT: This game looks intriguing. Looks like a TF2/7 Days to Die/Dungeon Defenders/Orcs Must Die sort of mashup. I'll probably check it out. But probably not in paid early release. We'll see.

    Problems with the new doctor

    I watched Doctor Who as a boy. I saw every episode with Tom Baker and Peter Davidson. I saw a little bit of Colin Baker and called it quits. I haven't watched an episode since (okay, I watched the freakin' scary ass angels episodes). For me the magic died with the actors. Tom Baker was...

    Judging By The Cover: Judging Amityville the Awakening

    I don't see it. The houses are totally different.

    #171: A Flash of Light

    Good question. Same question applied to the Crystal Corp President who is also about to toss his cookies. Perhaps Rad accidentally swallowed some of Erin's vomit. That's a pretty gross thought.

    #171: A Flash of Light

    The next comic is up over at: http://dyingalone.net/archives/comic/172-healing How crappy would it be to discuss it here on The Escapist? Probably pretty crappy.

    Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales Being Held for Ransom by Hackers

    Well, The Escapist does cover movies. And they discuss computers/software. So, maybe this particular combination of movies and computer piracy was just enough to qualify the article for publication on The Escapist. Ransomware and medical information? That doesn't quite make the cut.

    8 of the Most Annoying Video Game Enemies of All Time

    These guys are my number 1 vote. First to phaselock. First to die. I know you can dodge side to side when they are lunging to let them fly by. But it always seems to just be backup-bite-backup-bite-backup-bite.

    The Jackbox Party Pack 4 Announced, Contains Fibbage 3

    Drawful(2) is my favorite out of the bunch. I don't really know what more they could do with it. The third color doesn't add much. Maybe let you erase? But that's actually part of the fun of the game. Your screw-ups = your failures.

    #170: Gross

    She's a healer. Perhaps she can trigger a mass stomach cleanse. But if the crystals are still in the stomach, then shouldn't they just get pooped out with time.

    Judging By The Cover: Judging Spider-Man Homecoming

    So, we're in agreement then that the Sam Raimi Spiderman movie will be better than this one? I understand that Tobey Maguire has gone on to bigger and better things -- like doing voiceovers for bad businessman baby movies. I am very ready to see Michael Keaton as a bad guy again.

    April Fools! Or Not... as Rick and Morty Season 3 Premiers

    I am a pretty big Rick & Morty fan. But after watching the premiere twice last night, I was still a little sad that I couldn't chase it with the new Samurai Jack. The visuals, sound and music on this last season are friggin' amazing. Genndy and crew are outdoing themselves. It may not be your...

    Beauty and the Beast - Time to Crush a Rose

    "Satan and Entourage go to White Castle" It practically writes itself--in blood. OT: 20 Years ago, Gaston would have been played (poorly) by Bruce Campbell. I know he can "sing"--I saw him sing (poorly) Hungry Like the Wolf in an Old Spice Commercial once.
