Lightning Strikes Twice!

I know, WHAT THE HELL? Yet another vlog, David? Oh, geez. *rolls eyes*

But, hey, no one's forcing you to watch these. Right? RIGHT???

Oh, and this time I'm in another room in the house. The room where I close the door and do all my writing. Hey, in fact, I'm there right now . . . writing this very sentence!

Anyway, here's me babbling away for your amusement. Stay tuned 'till the end -- I have a special request for those of you brave enough to watch.

Later!

It's Been A Long Time . . .

Since I did one of these, that is. For those of you not prepared, get ready to set your eyes on my hideous visage and atrocious-sounding voice as I subject you once again to the horror known as . . . my VLOG!!!!

It runs at nearly 15 minutes long, though, so don't say I didn't warn you:





Are you still alive? Are your eyes not blinded, and are you able to continue reading? Phew, good! I was worried there for a second. For some reason the finished video turned out even darker than it looked to me while I was recording it. So I apologize for that Two-Face effect I had going on where half my face was in the light, while the other half in shadow. Spooky!

Oh, and if you're having trouble viewing the above embedded video, or if it's not running smoothly, click on this link to view it directly on Vimeo.

And, as promised, below are the links to the books I recommended in the Vlog. Check them out and see if you might not be interested in one or more of these. Of course, for the ones that are sequels, maybe you'll be interested enough to read the first books in the series? I hope so!

God's War, by Kameron Hurley.

The Broken Kingdoms, by N. K. Jemisin.

The Wise Man's Fear, by Patrick Rothfuss.

We'll see what I decided to discuss next time I do one of these. Unless, of course, you beg me in the comments not to. But it's going to have to be a LOT of you to convince me otherwise. Good luck with that!

Newbie Pick: Tombstone vs The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly

Got another vlog up. Discussin Blu-ray Westerns, more warm and fuzzy 80s movies . . . and another Yankees game!

God of War III . . . And More

In which I talk about The Yanks vs. White Sox game today, the Lakers' series win last night and . . . more importantly, God of War 3!!!

Dave! Talking Movies . . . (Making Copies!!!)

I warned you, didn't I? Behold the return of the video blog -- now with more ramble.

To see the trailer for Jonah Hex, click here.

What do you think? Is Jonah Hex going to suffer the same fate as Will Smith's Wild Wild West? In other words, are you getting a severe campy vibe from the little footage being shown? I'm having some misgiving about this now, but I think in the end Josh Brolin will save the day. He's the only awesome thing about this so far.
