Geek Media Round-Up: June 12, 2009

Zerg Cake
ZERG CAKE!

Comics

  • Eco-comics very elaborately pokes holes in Jeph Loeb’s take on Batman’s rogue gallery. It made for a good read, but I couldn’t help but chuckle over how much the argument sounds like dialog written to sound like a geek argument. Try imagining it as a conversation between the characters on Big Bang Theory.

Film

  • Harvard has rounded up a photo gallery of Mathematics in Movies.
  • Movie Mobsters picks the Top Ten Coming Of Age Movies… but in what world does Breakfast Club not make this list?!!
  • News is circulating that the G.I. Joe Movie is a complete bomb. It’s so bad, in fact, director Stephen Sommers has been fired.
  • The first trailer for Martin Scorsese’s next film, Shutter Island, has hit the web, and it looks like it may be his best work ever! It looks dark, fast-paced, and frightening. I can’t wait!

Literature

  • Free Fiction: Read “The City Quiet as Death” Steven Utley and Michael Bishop at Tor.com.
  • Free Fiction: Read “Deacon Carter’s Last Dime” by Nathan Crowder at Crossed Genres.
  • Free Fiction: Read “Three Gold Pieces” by Brock L. Noel at Planet Magazine.

Television

  • Even after being declined by Fox, Ronald D. Moore thinks his Virtuality series is still possible.
