I'm sure people here are familiar with it but I ran across the site Mike's Amazing World of Comics. It's pretty much put me in a time suck for most of the day
Actually, I looked it up and there were a couple that won "lesser" awards (sound editing, vfx, etc.). Great film and up against some great competition: How to Train Your Dragon 2, Boxtrolls, Song of the Sea, and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya.
The Boxtrolls is the worst, most unwatchable movie I have ever seen. And I've seen Batman Returns.
From a story and character point of view, I completely agree. I thought the actual craft and animation in Boxtrolls was remarkable. Unfortunately it was in service of a really lame story.
So Chris Borland linebacker for the 49ers decided to retire because he was worried about the long term effects it could have on his life. It's pretty amazing the amount of Internet tough guys that would call him soft. I'm guessing they've never strapped on a helmet

I skipped Spider-Island because the story sounded stupid. It might have been great, I don't know. I loved the Superior Spider-Man arc and its initial fall out. Then this came along and it looked like Spider-Island all over again. Olivier Coipel is my favorite artist so I kept buying..sorry I did. I'm a big fan of the idea of a multiverse in comics but this was just bad. On top of that this type of story isn't what I want to see in a Spider-Man book.
I never even got that far, having dropped the book after JMS' departure and the One Last Day fiasco. I might have come back -- maybe -- but the book went nearly weekly, and my wallet just couldn't support that. And then I filled in the void with other titles.
I clearly need to start pounding the pavement for my YouTube shows a little more and start guesting on some podcasts... @SolitaireRose Solitaire Rose Radio? @Fade2Black Wanderers in the 4th Dimension? @i_am_scifi Comic Timing? @Corwin Earth's Mightiest Podcast?
Is anyone there? Am I dead? Or Merely on Television?
@i_am_scifi Well, I could say the obvious and talk about any of the upcoming movies (or review if they were already out) or maybe the difficulties in trying to do a YouTube series about comics.

RedRight88 (et al.) we welcome guest reviewers. Previous guest podcasters include Jess Hall (Infinite Longbox podcast), Toby Sidler (The Comic Conspiracy podcast), and Justin Haywald (The Geekbox podcast). However, one need not be a podcaster to do a guest a stint on the the show. Recording sessions are usually conducted on Friday nights. Sometimes those recordings run past the midnight hour. We record over Skype, and use Google Drive/Docs to outline our discussion before hitting the record button. Each track is recorded via Audacity and a backup recording of all the audio tracks is done via Pamela. We reside on the West Coast (California Bay area), so our late night sessions sometimes can be a potential issue for some. On the last Friday of the month, we often attend a Doctor Who fans meetup at the local IHOP. On the weeks we attend the fan meetup, we usually conduct our recordings the following Saturday afternoon (a good thing to keep in mind if the West Coast time zone is an issue). We record several weeks in advance for we like to have 4 to 5 episodes in the can at all times. We watched the first Jon Pertwee story arc this week as well as a bonus Avengers episode that guest starred Pertwee. If there are any upcoming Pertwee story arcs you'd like to discuss with us, I suggest you shoot us a PM on our Facebook page and we'll go from there.

Well, if you don't mind doing a Friday night recording that could potentially last until 3AM your time that's one option. Alternatively, you could plan on joining us for one of our once-a-month Saturday sessions (about 4PM - 7PM your time). My co-host, David, usually handles the guest scheduling. We conduct much of our correspondences via FB, but you can also contact us at: podcast@wanderin4d.com
My wife set up a gofundme.com page for our son Logan. Please check it out. :)
EDIT: First, to those who have donated..THANK YOU!! Also, please do us a favor and share this through your Facebook, Twitter, etc. Even if you are unable to give at this time we could really use help getting the word out there, thanks!
Logan Tichy is an 8 year old super hero. He is the happiest, sweetest, most smiley boy ever! Logan has severe spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy (no ability to purposely move his arms or legs.) He is unable to walk, talk, roll over, sit up alone, and is partially blind. He has seizures, respiratory tract issues, and many other medical complications.
Logan's favorite pastime is going for walks in his wheelchair when it's nice outside :) Logan would LOVE to have the ability to go for a bike ride with his twin brother (Luke), and big sister (Sydney.) This is the only bike he will ever need and it would add so much more quality to his life.
If we order by June, the bike is $1,000 off!! This bike would surely be a lifelong blessing for Logan!!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping this dream come true!! :)
Schrodinger’s cat gets run over by a car, and he rushes it to the veterinarian. After two hours of pacing and hand-wringing, the vet comes out and says to him, “I have some good news, and some bad news.”

Aparo is *my* Batman artist. He was the guy who brought me into the Bat-fold.

I'd like to see it happen (as my blood bleeds UK blue) but you're probably okay not picking them.

Shrordinger's cat walked into a bar... or maybe it didn't.
