a matter of utmost importance: surviving the zombie onslaught

District 9 Semi-Review: Summer 09′s Dark Knight?

http://www.flickr.com/photos/matsubatsu/ / CC BY-SA 2.0 I’ve literally JUST returned from seeing the sci-fi event of the summer (Sorry, Trekkies! It’s the truth), District 9.

know your colony!

I’m not sure how many of you are aware that we are currently able to bear witness to the one of the coolest social experiments ever put on tv. The Colony is a show on the Discovery Channel and it’s making for some of the best image used from www.shm.com.au “reality” tv ever. I put [...]

my life is not a movie or maybe…
