Real life conspired to delay my gratification, but yesterday, ten days after its nationwide American release, I finally saw The Avengers. By now, reams* have been written about how good the movie is, how thoroughly it entertains on multiple levels thanks to its snappy Whedonesque dialogue, its insightful Whedonesque explorations of character relationships, and its […]

Yesterday I did what seems like my civic duty (after all everyone’s doing it) and went to see The Avengers. This film had a lot going for it before I even got into the theater, so to say that I really wanted to like this movie is an understatement. First, and foremost, it had the potential to […]

At long last YouTube has released its hold on my favorite YouTube video. Created back in 2006 and six years in the making… This was my tribute to all those who made us believe a man can fly.

Ever since those old “I’m a Mac, and I’m a PC” commercials came out, some enterprising folks immediately capitalized on them and made an analogy between the two big comics companies, Marvel Comics and DC Comics.

Brian attempts to recount his very entertaining weekend to his fellow Podwits, only to incur the wrath of J. (JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ!!!) and the discombobulation of Dion. Chaos ensues… the fun kind! Also, the Podwits have at a controversial recommendation by the American Library Association (damn librarians…). Yes, it’s another barely controllable episode of THE PODWITS!
