the_princess_bride_soundtrack-6781420On the November 9 episode of ESPN NFL Kickoff, hosts Trey Wingo, Mark Schlereth, and Tedy Bruschi, all decided to have some fun. Apparently one of the hosts decided to make a reference to The Princess Bride, and then the hosts competed to jam as many references into a half-hour show as possible.

Here’s a video of most of them.

And here’s an interview with the anchors telling how it all came about.

New Pulp Writer Sean Taylor Interviewed.

Pulp Ark Award Winning Best New Writer Sean Taylor was interviewed at http://toshigawa.com/?p=2292

“We talk turkey about writing bad-ass ninja chicks, working for Gene Simmons, and writing my favorite genre — the blender amalgamation of pulp, action, and lit,” Says Sean of the interview.

Beware the Tides of March… err… Bill O’Reilly

So, not so long ago, the American Atheist Group decided to buy a few billboards. So their president, one David Silverman, wanted to perhaps start a national debate on religion. Good idea? Well, we’ll leave that one up to the Lord (be it Allah, Ganesha, Buddha, Yahweh, Inky the Magical Leprechaun, or Stan Lee if you prefer). Billboards go up, and guess who get his panties in a bind? The answer rhymes with Shrill O’Bile-ly. Cut quickly to the O’Reilly Factor where Silverman was interviewed. And here’s where things get spicy.

During the interview, the debate whether the word “scam” is offensive is debated. And then the big guns get fired. Once Silverman dares to call organized religion “mythical”, Billy goes on the attack. “Let’s just be two guys. Not an atheist and a catholic. Just two guys…” O’Reilly throws out. Get this folks: The Tides. “They come in, and go out. Come in, and go out.” And why? According to O’Reilly… “It just happens. You can’t explain that.” Silverman, who didn’t have his high school physics book handy, forgot to PWN Bill by explaining tides move according to the gravity pull of Earth’s moon. He attempted a sidestep by saying “it doesn’t matter” that he couldn’t explain it, because at the root of his argument… explaining anything by way of an invisible man in the sky is silly. But Bill was Bill. He’d have nothing of it.

Enter the Internet. Now it’s become its own meme-in-the-making. So, ComicMixers… let’s discuss… what is there out in PopCultureLand that also can’t be explained by anything else than the mighty G-O-D? Consider this a contest folks. Use this meme-maker and post it in the comments below. Funniest meme gets a piece of the holy cross. Or a radioactive spider. Or the mighty Mjolnir. We’re not sure yet.

Behind the Scenes of Tori Amos’ ‘Comic Book Tattoo’

cbt_coverjasonlevesque-9091117Today sees the release of one of the most odd comics projects of late, a compilation of stories based on the music of Tori Amos, Comic Book Tattoo.

Spinner has a lengthy interview with Amos on the subject, as well as chats with many of the project’s creators. Read it all right here.

Amos offers her reaction to the book:

I’m not offended by this book, but I’m shocked. And it’s shocked in a way that makes me laugh, sometimes makes my skin crawl, sometimes makes me have to go back and dive back into that song again. I had given a brief to Rantz. I said, "This is not about people trying to, line by line, interpret and do a visual cover version of this song." Because I just didn’t find that intriguing at all. The comics that I was introduced to, which was ‘The Sandman,’ had integrity to me. And sometimes in the storyline, things didn’t always end up OK. Sometimes people die. Sometimes life does not triumph over all.

‘Heroes’ Hopes for Rebound Season

After a pretty unambiguously down second season, the NBC show Heroes is looking to get the magic back from its debut season that marked it as the network’s most important show.

In an interview with the New York Times, Heroes creator Tim Kring gave some insights into what’s to come, as well as reflecting back on what went wrong last year.

The scale tipped toward disappointment at the start of last season, as Mr. Kring acknowledged in an interview way back in November, just after production was abruptly cut off by the writers’ strike that shut down Hollywood. At that time he cited a list of early missteps, including introducing too many new characters, dabbling too much in romance and depositing one of the fans’ favorite characters, Hiro, in feudal Japan for too long. …

The new volume, which will run in 13 episodes, is called “Villains” and will focus on a single big story line, Mr. Kring said, relying almost totally on its core of main characters, and will return the show to exploring what he called “the primal questions” from Season 1: “Who am I? What is my purpose?”

The third season (volume, whatever) begins on Sept. 22.
