Inception

Oh, Inception. One of the best movies of 2010, I thought I'd have a little more fun with this one. The movie is all about dreams and the unreality in dreams. I suppose you'd have to know just a little about the comics to really appreciate the gag here. For no particular reason, I tend to give little Tim quite a lot of scrapes, bumps, and bruises in these comics. I thought it was time for him to have a little revenge, even if only in a dream world. I'll have to give Mike some vengeance too one of these days.

Anyway, everywhere else I posted this, I only posted the warped reality version. I give you the easier to read upright version below.

Predators Comic

The little girls featured here are my lovely nieces Maddy, Bri, and Annabelle. It was pointed out that this Predator design (which I'm very, very happy with) is one of the most frightening creature designs I've done, and I've put him in front of my nieces. It's cool though. He's just looking for some thin mints.

mmm... thin mints...

Avatar - The Last Airbender

Part of me wasn't sure I would use Tim on this one. I was tempted to bring cartoon Ben back. I wonder if anyone will mention that idea...

Oh, and this movie pretty much was a two and a half hour fart.

Twilight - Eclipse

The one thing I'm more tired of than this Twilight fad is making fun of this Twilight fad. What's left to say really? It's harlequin romance. It's pretty shoddy acting. It's a bland self absorb main character. Blah. Blah. Blah.

What I find most bothersome is that this is a gateway that leads nowhere. All these new fans of vampires and werewolves have stepped over the threshold of Geekdom, and what do they do when looking upon this world of possibilities and far superior tales? They turn their noses up to it still believing that they are better than all of it. Sorry girls, just 'cause your vampires sparkle in sunlight instead of bursting into the flames of damnation doesn't change the fact that they're still vampires. Nerd is nerd. So quit looking down on the culture you are now apart of. And nerds? Stop looking down on Twilight and start accepting the fact that it exists. How about instead of arguing over the flaws that it wears right on its sleeves (when it's actually wearing a shirt) and use it to guide these new travelers of the Geekdom to the corners of the Whedon-verse? Or Anne Rice? Or True Blood! Or pretty much anything else. Because mocking these people and their taste for tween literature isn't helping our cause. Nerds Unite!

Anyway, enjoy this week's comic.

The Princes of Persia - the Sands of Time

This week's movies were "The Prince of Persia" and "Sex and the City". Having suffered through the first "Sex and the City", I find myself often dreaming of the characters being run over by large vehicles. The Delorian's not large, but it'll do. It'll do just fine. I love me some time travel. If only "The Prince of Persia" had been a little better. Ah well. I'll always have Marty and the Doc.
