Putting the fun back in web surfing
Don’t shoot the puppy is a silly, but amusing and very hard game to play. Each level of this weird game poses a unique and creative challenge. I completed the whole game on the 3rd try. Let’s see you do better.
Don't shoot the puppy
Patrick McGoohan
Patrick McGoohan, best known for playing No.6 in the 60s cult classic The Prisoner, has died at the age of 80. He is also remembered as the dreaded Longshanks in Mel Gibson’s Braveheart.
Patrick, who is said to have turned down the role of James Bond in Dr. No, had been ill and passed away on the 13th. He will be missed by his fans.
Punch Drunk Critics has posted a few photos of some of the coolest movies scheduled to be released in 2009. These include Pixar’s UP, Land of the Lost, Terminator: Salvation and Where the Wild Things Are.
Pixar's UP
The Dark Knight
Warner Bros has decided not to release The Dark Knight in China due to cultural insensitivity in the Christopher Nolan movie, based on the Batman character. Why so serious?
The movie is offensive to clowns (and to mass murderers maybe), but I didn’t see anything else wrong with it. Was it because one of the baddies was from Hong Kong? Or maybe it’s because all the gadgets were made in China?
The truly insensitive thing is being done right now. Depriving the people of China of the joy of watching this awesome movie.
Batman not forever
In the latest Batman comic, Bruce Wayne has been killed off. I haven’t delved deep enough to find out what happens to Batman now, but it may be the start of a line of Batmans, much like the Phantom.
This also begs the question of what would happen when one of the main superheroes grew too old to be of any use. The accelerated growth experienced by Superman as a child would also mean that he would age faster than someone from Earth. Would he fade into oblivion or pass on the torch to one of his offsprings?
