Interview with Chris Avellone, and damn it, this really makes me curse Sega again for not going ahead with AP2. http://www.thatonevideogamer.com/featured/tovg-extra-spotlight-interview-with-chris-avellone-by-gerry-martin/]ThatOneVideoGamer - Spotlight Interview with Chris Avellone

Some brief DE Mankind Divided stuff.. GamesRadar - Deus Ex Boss Fights

I think Dwayne Johnson is charismatic and funny. But I worry that - as he's a fairly big action star - the plan is to make him the action star of the movie. One of the best things about the original is that for all of Jack Burton's macho posturing, Wang Chi and Egg Shen were 1000 times more competent. Yeah there's a reason he's there and ultimately gets things right (its all in the reflexes) but...I have a feeling that a remake made carelessly will have none of the charm of the original. Exactly, part of the fun was that Jack Burton believes he's the hero, when he's just the sidekick. While from everything I've seen suggests that Dwayne Johnson would have fun playing that, whether the studios would actually allow a "major" action star to have that role is another thing. I would half expect them to shift it so that he becomes the actual hero of the story, with Wang Chi as the plucky sidekick. And that would be disappointing. Although that news has made me listen/watch to this again : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xiAbDkXDgg

Someday fitness guru and multi-millionaire (insert Woldans real name here) will be describing how he came up with the idea for his revolutionary new weight training machine that was hailed as "the greatest advance in personal training since nautilus". And to think, we heard it here first! Or will it go down in infamy as a device for advanced interrogation?

And on film news.. Variety - Disney pulls the plug on Tron 3

I really should make some time to re-read The Count Of Monte Cristo soon. I find that's one I pretty much read once a year.

Egyptian Cotton Sheets. That 500 thread count just makes for a luxuriously decadent feel. Perfect for when you just want to ignore the day and spend the morning reading in bed....

A good book...

With all this resurgence of superhero tv shows going on, I had a sudden urge to re-watch some of the old Adventures of Lois and Clark. ... and saying that that's old makes me feel decrepit. While there was so much that was cheesy-silly to that show, the one thing you can say is that the way they wrote Lex Luthor, along with John Shea playing it pitch perfect, has to be the best version I've seen of Luthor.
