Three for three of articles I loved reading. Man, not only would that version of the Walking Dead never be filmed, but anyone who tried to watch it would probably be tagged by the government. Taking out his own zombie daughters teeth so he could...fuuuuck.
I've read a lot of the Batman comics you mentioned, and remember loving them as well. I think that version of the character is just way too complex and difficult to write for in a Hollywood film. Moody and bad-ass is fine, but selfish, manipulative and borderline nuts just won't go on a lunchbox.
And THANK YOU for addressing my one major fault with the 40 Year Old Virgin. Loved the movie, hated the "sell all this beloved, amazing stuff to pay for your fucking wedding." If I met a girl who was happy for me to do that, the last thing I'd be doing is looking for a best man. And yeah, Big Bang Theory just reeks of "hey, nerds are totally like this, right?"
Great work.

Bazinga! Sure you don't want to kick my ass for not writing more about Spaced?

I've not seen Spaced for a long time now, but I remember it being the very first show that actually talked about and referenced stuff I was into. A British sitcom that talks about Wolverine's adamantium claws?? Holy shit. But hey, it's your article, dude. What's more that needs to be said about the show anyway? Pretty sure every person reading that article will know who Simon Pegg is anyway.
Speaking of Pegg, have you any thoughts on the World's End film? I think it's kinda died a death, and I haven't seen it myself.

It's not coming out for another few weeks here, and it's not likely to get wide release. I'll rent it for sure, though.
