Dweebs Geeks & Weirdos – When I was maybe 10 my older brother refused to play this game with me.  He kept it out in his room all the time and told me I wasn’t old enough to play.  I was gutted.  One day he came into my room and handed me the game…”it’s all yours”. I got my best friend to run on over, we set it all up and played.  About 5 minutes later the game was given to the charity pile in our spare room.  What a shitty game.  Thanks brother.

Here are today’s interesting links found on the series of tubes:

  • A PUBLIC ENEMIES poster.  Is Christian Bale’s name even on this thing?  “So ameture.” This hits theaters on July 1st.
  • Kevin Smith is signed up to direct A Couple of Dicks for WB…Clerks is a good movie.
  • Danny Boyle + James Bond = ???
  • Jimmy Fallon’s first show as the host of “Late Night” was…not good
  • The new trailer for Terminator Salvation will be attached to Watchmen this weekend, and now it’s online here.
