52 Days of 52: Week 7

October 31st, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: Comics


Remember how in week six I was complaining about Booster crossing the line? Well its nice to know that the writers have him paying the consequences already. Not only did he get ousted for being a con-artist but it was great to have Ralph Dibny (who we’ve not seen a few weeks) go to Booster for help and then when Booster didn’t help him he totally ripped Booster a new one in front of the media. So now everyone knows Booster has had some fraudulent rescues. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

52 Days of 52: Week 6

October 30th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: Comics


What the heck happened? Booster Gold has been a character I’ve really liked. He’s a fame-whore and it just makes sense to have a super-hero like that. But paying someone to dress up as a villain just so you can stop them for a publicity stunt? That’s crossing the line in my book. That’s just pathetic. And I’m not sure if I buy that the character would stoop that low. Which makes me think this only happened because the writers needed it to happen not because Booster would actually do it. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

ScottKing.info Turns 2!

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: Me


Today marks the two year anniversary of ScottKing.info. My little site-that-could has really started to come into its own. For starters, there are a lot of you out there who are regular readers and I love everyone of you! In the past year we had 143,782 hits. It’s still not super great numbers, but it’s solid and every month more new unique visitors show up. So I’m happy.

Another interesting factoid , is that in a year I’ve made 1,327 posts. That’s an average of 3.6 post a day or 25.5 posts a week. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Posted In: Me, Sarah


I’m sorry, but I’m out of town and won’t be back till next Monday (it’s why I tried to make a whole bunch of posts today). The “52 Days of 52″ will automatically post while I’m gone and so will your Thursday “Halo” pic and Friday “Edit” pic. Hope you all have a great week and a Happy Halloween.

52 Days of 52: Week 5

This is the first issue to really only focus on one storyline. I’m mean sure you have a single panel-appearances of Booster Gold and Renee Montoya shows up for like 3 pages, but everything else in this issue is about the heroes who were in space at the end of “Infinite Crisis.” ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Halo 3 on TV

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: TV, Video Games


So far I’ve seen “Halo 3” on an episode of “Sarah Silverman,” “Chuck,” and “Desperate Housewives”

What I think is interesting to note is that “Chuck” really had the characters playing the game which means the episode was filmed after Sept. 21st. On the other hand, “Sarah Silverman” showed the characters playing the first “Halo” but they were calling it “Halo 3.” Meanwhile, on “Desperate Housewives” the characters were playing “Halo 3″ but simply called it a “Zombie Game.”

How do I know all of this? It’s because each of the Halo’s use different maps and different weapons. So having played all three it was simple to figure out which game was on which show (p.s. the pic above is an actual screenshot from the game).

“The Dark Defender”

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: Comics, TV, Dexter, TV


So after last night’s “Dexter,” who else wants to read a “Dark Defender” comic? I’m also curious as to who did the pencils in the promotional art. I think I’ll email Pop Candy and see if Whitney can help me find out.

Update: A poster just shared this link which takes you to Showtime’s website where they have posted a “Dark Defender” video-comic. It’s basically a short promo that looks like it was done in Flash or in a  similar program, but of course if you’re a fan of the show, you have to check it out.   Thanks Josh!

“Star Trek’s” Country Music Awards?

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: TV


I’m sorry, but when did the Country Music Awards join Starfleet? I was watching “Brothers and Sisters” last night (an awesome show and SHAME on you for still not watching it) and there was a commercial for the CMA’s with a massive Starfleet logo in the background.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with “Star Trek,” the logo to the right is the symbol used in the “Star Trek” and the logo to the left is from the CMA’s website. So what’s going on? Is it some joke Trekkies are playing on red necks or what?

It wouldn’t be November sweeps or even a normal TV season without deaths. So after the break I’ll share some of the shows planning to kill people off. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

“24″ Season Seven Trailer

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: TV, 24, TV


Did you hear a trailer for the seventh season of “24” has hit the web? The basic gist is that terrorist have hacked CTU’s firewalls and infrastructure and that Jack has to leave LA to track them down. The twist is that the bad guy of the season is a resurrected Tony Almeda. 

Last season of “24” was painful to watch. Specially since the fifth season was the best season ever. So now I’m really worried that they are bringing back my favorite “24” character and that they are going to do a hack job of it.

Things are moving closer to production for Neil Gaiman’s “Death: The High Cost of Living” adaptation. The movie, which is based on the comic book mini-series, will be directed by Gaimen and produced by Guillermo del Toro. In a recent interview, Gaiman had this to say:

You can have many different types of executive producer … what Guillermo really wants to do is be there as a safety net for me. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

The Office Convention

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: TV, TV, The Office


I’m so mad I didn’t get to go to this, but in Scranton Pennsylvanian they held a “The Office” convention. Every cast member, except for Steve Carnell, was at the event which lasted three days. Pop Candy went to the event and covers it:

I happened to walk in at the exact moment Creed Bratton stepped in as singer for The Scrantones, and he was a sight to behold. Shortly thereafter, Craig Robinson (Darryl) grabbed the mic and belted out I Will Survive. He may not have Bratton’s musical chops — Creed was a member of ’60s band The Grass Roots — but what he lacked in skill he made up for in spirit.

Whit is supposed to do a longer write up of it (including interviews) later in the week. Updated@2:52pm: Man’s she’s quick. She already posted a more detailed summary of the convention here.

Problem with International Space Station

October 29th, 2007 | by Scott King
Posted In: News News


This is kinda scary and something you’d see in a sci-fi show. Astronauts were on a space walk yesterday when they discovered a joint needed to turn a set of solar power panels was filled with metal shavings.

“It’s quite clear that it’s metal-to-metal grating or something, and it’s widespread,” Tani said.

“Wow,” said his spacewalking partner, Scott Parazynski.

The shavings resembled small flakes and were clinging to the joint as if to a magnet, Tani said. “It looks like a dusty table that you’d want to dust at home,” he called down.

David Dobkins, who did “The Wedding Crashers” and “Fred Claus” has been hired to direct “The Flash” movie. The film will focus on Wally West and will somehow be tied to the CGI “Justice League Movie,” though all other details are being kept hush-hush.
