"No! It's my snake, I trained it, I'm going to eat it!"


Maybe cool?
There can never be enough post-apocalyptic games, right? Even with Fallout 3 sort of setting a (arguably) really high bar? Well, I say no, you can never have enough post-apocalyptic games. Especially when your game is set in post-apocalyptic Moscow. That's where Metro 2033 is set and that's pretty awesome. Looks like it'll basically be Fallout in Russia, but what's wrong with that, huh? And given Fallout 3's ridiculously low-rent shooting mechanics/controls, there's plenty of room for improvements here.

Mad Max
So, a Mad Max 4 helmed by original director/creator George Miller has been in the cards for the last couple of years. They keep talking about it. You keep hearing murmurs about it. It's probably going to get made, okay? First thing: There's going to be no sign of Mel Gibson in it, so I guess you can rest easy? But, if you believe some recent rumors, there may be some Charlize Theron in there. Yeah, that won't be too bad, right?

More like “Dead-house,” amiright?
Uh oh, now Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello is saying that Dollhouse is being yanked during November sweeps. Guess it really is in trouble if sources have confirmed it. To him. Exclusively. Also, it's not good news when the Aus' "loves" your show since he can't shut up about how it's "doomed" and "doesn't stand a chance" and "is all but fucking gone-ass dead" (that may be a leetle bit of a paraphrase...) That sort of talk doesn't help get new viewers enthusiastic about checking out why you're raving about the show in the first place (see: Pushing Daisies and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and, almost, Friday Night Lights) but I'm sure it doesn't hurt the Aus's numbers, right? You know, because it's stuff that's source confirmed. To him. Exclusively. So people will go clickers for it.

January once more
GQ is providing even more pics of January Jones from her recent profile/photoshoot in the mag. God bless those guys. I figured I'd link to them, since you really can't get enough half-naked January Jones shots. And if you can, go fuck yourself.

BSG
Hey, remember that show that was on there for a while: Battlestar Galactica? And how it kinda mattered for a bit? You know, until the last episode was pretty much the worst last episode in the history of last episodes forever? Yeah, that one. Well, they've got some new movie-thingy coming out if you care. Here's a clip. In related news, the very tasty Katee Sackhoff will be making a cameo on The Big Bang Theory soon, very soon.

And finally…
In most places this would be completely inappropriate but in Brooklyn, I guess, it's just edgy humor.
