Revolution, The Children's Crusade, Review

"Dick-ish-ness is an Artform"

"Revolution" is one of my guilty pleasures. The show is a lite version of the world 15 years after a worldwide blackout causes society to collapse. While the show stretches credibility most of the time with the 'Quest of the 12 Pendants', Charlie's magic composite crossbow and Miles' sword fighting abilities I think it is worth a spot in my DVR. The crew at AfterBuzz does a great job breaking it down and reminding us that "Revolution"is just a TV show for entertainment.

Should we start a Concussion Ticker for Charlie?

1st World War Z Official Trailer looks, ok....

World War Z Official Trailer (2:27) | Horror School
If I ever win the lottery for a Billion dollars there are three things on my Bucket List. First, buy the Dallas Cowboys from Jerry Jones. Two, build the University of Louisville an on campus Football and Basketball complex. Three, make a grand scale Cecil B Demille style zombie apocalypse movie that does not have sprinting, flying, ninja zombies. The entire horror genre fan base is terrified that Max Brooks' definitive book on the aftermath of a zombie uprising will be turned into 28 Days Later starring Brad Pitt.
Ninja Zombies climb walls under automatic weapons fire.

It looks like the horror fan's worst nightmare's are coming true under the CGI brush of the biggest hack in Hollywood...........

What do you think? Can Brad "Achilles" Pitt and his secret reshoots save the movie?

World War Z's first footage.....

Brad Pitt has finally gotten the troubled zombie epic moving again. This Thursday on E he will be introducing the first trailer. Based on the few seconds we see it looks like the zombies are supernaturally fast and fluid like the Flood from the Halo series. There does not look like there is much hope for the long awaited film adaptation of Max Brooks' masterpiece of a world on the brink of collapse under the weight of SLOW AND SHAMBLING Romero style walkers.
What do you think about this sneak-peek?
Fast Zombies or Slow Zombies?
Does the movie have a John Carter's chance of success?

NEW YORK: Why some have gas, some don't

The NBC show "Revolution" seems a bit more believable to many residents of the Northeastern USA. Some areas of the storm ravaged region are getting fuel from military distribution centers while others are zipping in and out of the nearest gas station with full tanks after paying the cheapest prices of the year. It appears that regional fuel supplies and pipelines are directly impacted by the electrical grid. Without electricity gas stays on the truck, in the pipelines and the pumps don't work.
Without power nothing is as simple as internet forum posters would have you believe......

Free gas in New York City.
NEW YORK: Electrical outages caused by Hurricane Sandy explains why some have gas, some don't. 

Why do some areas struck by Superstorm Sandy have plenty of gasoline and others still don't?
It turns out we need electricity to drive. Even if we're driving cars that run on gasoline. And many areas still have no power.
Without electricity, gasoline can't be pumped from refineries, through pipelines, off tanker ships, out of terminals or from gas stations into Toyotas, Chevys and Fords.
