I hope everyone is well. There has been a nasty strain of the Flu working its way around LA. I’ve avoided it so far but everyone else I know, especially Herbie, has been stricken. I on the other hand I have just recovered from a burned out motherboard on my laptop.
So much Has happened I must get to. We lost Gary Gygax and Dave Stevens in just over a week. These to great men helped shape pop culture in the 70s and 80s and I was there to watch it unfold.
A number of films have come and gone doing lack lust box office sales which may be more a reflection of the economy than their quality. Jumper was better than I expected so there is a go chance we’ll see a sequel. 10k b.c. got a disappointing fist place on it’s opening weekend.
Hype for Iron Man is going off the charts and ma just deserve it. The Hulk on the other hand, which comes out the month after Iron Man, has had only one trailer.
The 8th Harry Potter fill is slated for release in 2011 while Hortan Hears A Who starts to day.
With Geneon quiting anime production and book sellers putting limitations on the number of titles they carry is the Japanese pop culture invasion at and end.
And last but not by no means least today is the first day of Wizard Con LA. I’ll be interviewing fans and professionals to get other opinions about these and other topics.
I’ll be posting again soon.
