Dark Knight

Friday, July 18, 2008

BatmanMy wife and I went to see The Dark Knight at 12:45am. I am a huge Batman fan and this movie did not disappoint. It was just a hair under three hours long, and — aside from the fact that I knew I was going to be late to work today — I didn’t want it to end. The film is at least as good as Batman Begins, if not better; and I thought that was the best Batman film ever. I also thought that all of the Oscar talk for Heath Ledger as the Joker was merely because of the actor’s untimely death, but after seeing his performance I don’t see how he couldn’t get nominated. Run, don’t walk, to see this in the theater. It. Is. Awesome.

Contextless Content: Episode #27 (Luigi)

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Contextless Content: A portion of a conversation, usually from an instant messenger platform.

brother-in-law: Unfortunately, a war on master bathrooms won’t attract the attention of any A-list superheroes
GatorDVG: That’s where you’re wrong.
brother-in-law: I’ll probably get someone like Black Vulcan, or the Panther, or Super Mario
GatorDVG: Isn’t Super Mario a plumber?
brother-in-law: Yeah….I’ll probably get him
brother-in-law: Or even his lame-o brother, Luigi
GatorDVG: I’m pretty sure your new wife has him on speed dial.
GatorDVG: I seem to remember them having a very poignant relationship several years ago…
brother-in-law: That would explain all the mushrooms in the closet

Solomon Grundy, Superfriends

Friday, June 9, 2000

Danelope had a link to Jesus Christ’s home page, which was truly an amazing find. At the bottom of the page I noticed that Jesus’ page was created by something called “Solomon Tunt” productions. That made me think of Solomon Grundy, from the Superfriends. He was one of my favorite bad guys from the group of bad guys. I can’t remember what their hideaway was called, though. I used to freakin’ love that show. I also used to like to walk around saying, “Solomon Grundy!” in an ominous, deep voice.
