Lucky Creature Family moves to new home!

This blog and Con-news.com have brand new homes directly on the luckycreature.com website. We have made this move mostly to support the growing readership of Con-news.com but also to host this personal luckycreature.com blog at its own space.

We hope you will all update your bookmarks and go HERE, NEW BLOG

Lastly I want to thank Blogger for being a great partner these last few years allowing me to do this personal blog, but also allowing con-news to grow to a point where it makes sense to do this move. See you all at the new site!

Cloverfield gets a B.

Cloverfield was probably the best movie Ive ever seen in January. That being said I had to watch more than half of the movie standing in the hallway beside the stadium seating. If you have any kind of motion sickness, think twice before seeing this movie on the big screen. Wont spoil anything for you but the monster does kick butt.

Fell # 9 Review.

O.k. I know I haven't really spent much time on comics lately. Still been reading them, just been too busy to really pay much attention to review them. But Fell #9 from Mr. Warren Ellis and Mr. Ben Templesmith does it again. In just 16 pages it manages to tell a complete story, use storytelling techniques brand new to the medium and look absolutely amazing. It's one of the few comics left today that are worth the wait. Another fine issue. A Plus.

I think I could sleep for a week or more. easy.
looking forward to Cloverfield this weekend. Cant remember the last time I got excited for a January movie.
Got way too many new games and no time to play any of them.
oh well. just wanted to get out a quick update.

Peas page 26.
