Fraggmented: November 2014
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 13, 2014. So I went back and checked. And when I found out they didn't, well. It's the 1950s. Sue Storm is a private investigator in Los Angeles barely keeping the rent paid and the bill collectors happy. Her kid brother Johnny sometimes helps her out with a case, usually when it involves driving too fast or thinking with his fists. But out of the blue one day, an old friend of hers named Ben Grimm turns up looking to cash in a favor. At this point, Sue is convinced that Victor isn't t...

Fraggmented: Why I Would Have Destroyed My Cell Phone Too
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2015/07/why-i-would-have-destroyed-my-cell.html
Thursday, July 30, 2015. Why I Would Have Destroyed My Cell Phone Too. Look, this isn't that difficult. It's not an admission of guilt that Tom Brady destroyed his cell phone rather than hand it over to the NFL. Not of deflating his balls, which is the sort of thing that really should be kept between consenting adults in the bedroom, and not of anything else either. It's just common sense. Here's why.

Fraggmented: October 2014
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 30, 2014. My Latest 'Star Wars' Theory. Let's take a look at Owen Lars, shall we? Good old Uncle Owen, a nice old moisture farmer who raises his nephew and works the soil with nothing but his family and a few old droids. A kindly soul, one who doesn't want trouble and doesn't want to get involved in the wider affairs of the universe. The salt of the earth. And those droids.well, it's not like he's buying top-of-the-line equipment to help him with the harvest, is he? In fact, he's buying...

Fraggmented: May 2015
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 28, 2015. Top 5 Movies DC Should Make That Aren't About Superheroes. The other day, I mentioned to my roommate that I'd really like to see the upcoming 'Suicide Squad' movie go back to basics. Then I paused and said, "Well, not all the way back to basics, because that would be a movie about a renegade tobbogganist fighting dinosaurs during World War II.". Which got me thinking: Why the hell is there not a "War That Time Forgot" movie? IT NEVER. HAPPENED. Tuesday, May 26, 2015. And Lars Pear...

Fraggmented: June 2015
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2015. Why I Love Zoos. I'm currently reading a book by Peter Laufer called 'Forbidden Animals'. To start, it's worth understanding that the Minnesota Zoo. This is important, because as a child I also happened to be a big fan of the books written by naturalist Gerald Durrell. Founded on his philosophy of what the role of a zoo should be in society. Friday, June 26, 2015. Review: The Severed Streets. I started 'The Severed Streets', Paul Cornell's latest novel about a team of detectives wh...

Fraggmented: Storytelling Engines: The Elongated Man
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2007/01/storytelling-engines-elongated-man.html
Monday, January 15, 2007. Storytelling Engines: The Elongated Man. Or "If It Ain't Broke, Don't Break It"). Let's now reiterate what brought him into the public eye of late: His wife was murdered in 'Identity Crisis'. Um, oops. Even on a career second banana like the Elongated Man. A better subtitle, I think, would be "If it can stretch, why break it? Pretty much my EXACT problem with Sue Dibney's murder. He might not be selling wheelbarrows full of comics, but the Elongated Man worked as a unique concep...

Fraggmented: Ellen Ripley: Strong Female Character?
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2015/08/ellen-ripley-strong-female-character.html
Thursday, August 06, 2015. Ellen Ripley: Strong Female Character? Time for a second installment in the (extremely) occasional feature here, where we look at a female character in science-fiction and fantasy and ask ourselves the following five questions:. 1) Is she active? A genuinely strong female character should make her own decisions, and those decisions should drive the plot. 2) Is she only allowed to be strong in a way that confirms gender stereotypes? 1) Is she active? Definitely. Ripley makes...

Fraggmented: The 'Matrix' Sequel...
http://fraggmented.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-matrix-sequel.html
Thursday, July 23, 2015. Should have been a 'Matrix' prequel. I know, prequels all suck, but hear me out here. It'd be set a few years after the time period represented by the Matrix in the original 'Matrix', and the main character is a coder at a Google-type big company with big ideas. One of the big ideas, which the main character is working on, is artificial intelligence. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Comforting Lion Comforts You.
