We normally don’t link to stuff like this, but Hustle & Flow kicked my ass when I saw it a couple of weeks back and I want to try to get it into the CHUD reader consciousness. It’s the story of a small time pimp and weed dealer who takes one last shot at redemption … Continue reading

It’s certainly a nice painting of what Ghost Rider looks … Continue reading
With Batman Begins’ well-thought out supervillain plan eating up all the thoughtspace in the fanboy mind, Marvel Films Dude Avi Arad is making a bid for a little attention by dishing on all the plans the comic book company and fledgling production house have for the future. And amazingly, some of the plans don’t suck. … Continue reading
