Packing up my entire life, and watching Pete Holmes’ “Nice Try, The Devil” for the ∞th time.

I’ve already packed 3 boxes of DVDs, and that only covered that hole in my bookcase.

Here is the best way that I can think of to decribe what it must have been like to be a producer while making "Star Trek Into Darkness"

*Spoilers*

It must have felt like being a toddler (The Producers) playing Hide and Seek with an adult (The Fans/ Audience).

The toddler thinks they are doing an amazing job of hiding, but in reality, they are just standing behind the curtains, yelling that you will never find them, when the adult can obviously see their ~~Kahn~~ feet the whole time.

I just realized that I got my tattoo over a year ago.

I guess I need to get another one.

Suggestions?

My wallet is telling me “No”, but everything else is screaming “FUCK YES!!!! GET IT!!! GET IT!!! NOW!NOW!NOW! YOUNEEDTHATFUCKINGPHASER!!!!”

And here it is!!!

My “Evil Dead Chainsaw” v3.0!!!

This one is much sturdier than the last one, it fits a lot nicer, and I think the paint will last a lot longer (I actually primed it this time)

It was a lot of fun walking around Comiccon with this, and seeing people’s reactions when I told them that I made it out of an orange juice jug.

As much as I love how this one turned out, I can guarantee that I will make another one.

(P.s. If anyone who attended the Ottawa Comiccon has any pictures of me, I sure would like to see them)

Let me get this out of the way.

I did not meet Castle last week.

I met Captain Malcolm FUCKING Reynolds!!

Seriously, Rest of World, get your shit together.

I totally didn't just order the Doctor Who Regenerations Box Set.

Here are the best parts from Pete Holmes Comedy Central Special “Nice Try, The Devil”.

So I got some German versions of Serenity in the mail today.

Tue, 14 May 2013 04:17:07 -0400

Let’s take a look at one of them!

Here is your standard German version of Serenity:

This is cool. It’s nothing we haven’t seen before (just with a red tint). They gave the film a nice subtitle (which translates to “Escape into New Worlds”).

Let’s see what the back of the case looks like.

Nice design.

Hey, I see some bonus features.

Wait.

What does that say?

WHY WOULD YOU NAME IT THAT???

YOU COULD HAVE CALLED IT ANYTHING ELSE!!!!!!!

WHHHHHHYYY!?!?!?!

Sun, 12 May 2013 01:39:50 -0400

So, at Comiccon today, I was looking for a model of the USS Enterprise NCC 1701-D (from The Next Generation, of course) and I walked up to this both and asked the guy behind the table if he had one, he looked around his booth for a bit, then found one tucked away under some boxes. I asked him how much he was selling it for, and he pointed to the price on the box. Only $25! I was really happy, but it looked to be an older box, and I wanted to make sure it was in good condition. The guy said it was no problem (it wasn’t mint condition to begin with), and just as he is opening it up, I notice that there are ads on the box that say “collect the rest of the Star Wars toy line”. Star Wars? But it’s the Enterprise. I told him “This looks to be a knock-off, so I don’t think I’ll be buying it.” Then all of a sudden little R2-D2 figures start pouring out of the Enterprise box (almost cartoonishly). I then instantly woke up in my bed, only to realize that the entire interaction was a dream that just happened.

This convention is haunting me already!

FWENDZ!!!

So, If I want to get a picture with Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day, I have to miss the Nathan Fillion Q&A, and If I want to get a picture with Nathan Fillion, I have to miss the Wil Wheaton Q&A.

It’s 3:40am.

Fucking Costumes.

It’s 1:30am, and this is the floor of my basement/workspace.

I’m trying to figure out how to make a shotgun harness, and nothing is working.

I’ve also listened to the soundtrack to “Evil Dead: The Musical” 3 times in a row, for inspiration. That’s kinda working.

The costume is done!*

(*except for a few little pieces that need to be glued on, but I’ll do that tomorrow after work. Until then, I need to figure out how I’m going to fit into the actual clothing part of my costume, because I haven’t worn the pants in 3 years, and the shirt I bought from Value Village is a little too tight. Oh well, I think it’ll work.)
