Based on the novel by Neil Gaiman, an another my favorite writer. I read the novel before and I remember I enjoyed it.

It was 3-D like AVATAR! On a technical level, Coraline is a stunning film. Maybe it's the finest example of stop-motion animation. Actually it was better than "Nightmare Before Christmas". (Although which is also my favorite film.)

The story is simple. A young girl, Coraline moved in to new home. Her parents are busy for their works, so they always ignore Coraline. One day, she found a little door on the wall. That night, she open the door and go through the narrow tunnel, then she get out to another room. Looked like her room, but something's different. She found her mother, but her eyes are buttons! :eek:


It look like fantasy for kids. But little kids will cry out. The dark tone can be off-putting for children. Some scenes are very weird and creepy!

Well, that's why I enjoyed it. I like weird and creepy things.

Angel of Death is a gritty noir low-budget winner. I picked it up because I saw that it was created and written by Ed Brubaker who is one my favorite comic book writers and I'm glad I did. Zoe Bell plays an assassin who gets stabbed in the head causing her to have flashbacks of her victims who point her to take down the very organization that she works for. The movie clocks in at 80 minutes so it doesn't waste any time but doesn't sacrifice a good story because of it; in fact it hones it down to its bare essentials. Bell is very believable as an ass-kicking assassin and I thought the rest of the cast was solid.

Haunted Air dealt with psychics and the slight of hand and fake stuff they do to make you believe so they can take your money ...

Are there really psychic businesses out there they do all of the stuff descrbed in the novel? Or did FPW just make it all up?

And if so is this just in NY or everywhere?

I once met a lady that had a psychic shop in Seguin, TX ... she was no psychic. She told me mostly what she did was give love advice.

I decided to treat myself to the matinee this morning and while it is not great by any standards, I rather enjoyed it. Rick Baker's work was reason enough for me to like it-the transformation scenes were cool and I thought the fully turned wolfman a nice homage to the original. I'd say if you like old fashioned monster movies, you'll probably like this. It is not truly scary but there are several pretty good jump scares.

OK. I just finished ordering Haunted Air and By the Sword.... all I need now is Legacies.

And.... Finally... will own a copy (not all signed first-editions) of every RJ hardcover printed! I am as excited as the day I got the Nintendo with the Power Pad as a young kid (i know, I am young).

My wife thinks its cute. They are the only books I collect and dust off once a month!

And FPW, I hope to have the chance to have you sign THE LOT OF THEM at one of your appearances in Florida this spring.

For a guy supporting a wife and three young boys (all future RJ fans), it is quite an accomplishment to hoard away the money to buy these books!

Anyone else like to brag about their collections? Would love to hear about them.

How come I can buy the Jack: Secret Histories paper book, but when I want to buy the kindle edition, it tells me that it's not available "in my country".
My country is Austria, Europe. That little speck of dirt on the other side of the big pond someone is obviously not interested in selling things to.

:out:

Who do I need to flood with hate mail?

Jack's father, Tom, was a Marine sniper in Korea. Who taught him marksmanship?

Where was the evil compound TPD first examined?

Ok, forgive me if this question has been asked before, as I am sure it must have been.
After finishing Ground Zero, there is a note from FPW saying there will be a heavily revised edition of Nightworld released. Now, I have the Borderlands Press LE, which I now is revised, but I was led to believe that the revisions for that were minor changes, more along the lines of updating it to now and so forth. So what I am asking is, is the BP edition the heavily revised edition mentioned in the note or will there be an even newer revised edition?

I love my collection of these books and all, but is this guy's price crazy out-of-this-world?

Just wondering if any other RJ fans watch "Burn Notice".

It has a basic similar plot, guy with skill handles problems outside the law for people who can't handle themselves, for each episode, but the overall plot/aim is spy/espionage based.

Though, where Jack only works for money, Michael (the main character) works for money but sometimes he's simply guilted into jobs by his friends/family into helping.

Where Jack is a self made man and master of many trades, Michael Weston is a CIA guy. Operates outside the law, has tons of tricks of the trade/McGuyver-like skills, and he prefers to work from the shadows, or under an assumed ID.

That and his love interest is an ex-IRA gun/explosive maniac. So they differ in that way.

And his backup is a retired Navy SEAL turned gigilo played by Bruce Campbell. The humor is completely different, as is how he solves problems, but it's a fun little show if you happen to catch it on tv.
