The Day of the Doctor is upon us!



Just a few more hours to go! Spending some time today catching up on some of the old favorites while I wait.

Well it isn't a cyberman.....

......but it is damn close.


Unless there is something lost in a box somewhere, this is my last Necron model in my house.

Is it finally going to happen?


A long standing (and infinitely quotable)  favorite comic of mine, is on the radar yet again.



AMC is now rumored to be interested in bringing Preacher to the small screen. I have my doubts. An adaptation of this comic has been in development limbo forever. Also is AMC the best place? They would have to cut a lot from this that a network like HBO or Showtime wouldn't.

Doctor Who 50th prep

The Doctor Who 50th is just a few days away. 

Now if you know nothing or care nothing for Doctor Who then you will feel the same about this post. 

Myself, I have enjoyed the Doctor’s trips through space and time for many years. Now I’m geared with my sonic, slick new duds, and I am eagerly awaiting a great episode of Doctor Who. This is also the 50th anniversary of the show! Saturday I get some new Who and a milestone episode to boot!



Then I watched the Night of the Doctor, an online prequel to the Day of the Doctor which premiers Saturday night.

This seven minute short starts out great. It has Paul McGann reprising the 8th Doctor. How cool is that?! It even takes place during the Time War. Once again cool beans! The problem I have is the ending. Here we get a look into who John Hurt is playing in the 50th. It really left a bad taste in my mouth. The big shakeup at minute 6 something, really warps the Doctor Who universe. Yes, I know it will all be made clear this weekend. Whatever this was about, or will it?

Kaya vs. Madrak battle report

The second or third game of Hordes we have played, now in written and pic form!



Druid 1
Kaya casts Occulation on all the beasts. This gives then stealth to protect from incoming spears. Then she forces them to run. The warpwolf is riles to generate extra fury for next turn.
Trollblood 1
Madrak forces the Impalers to run. He fores the Axer to cast its rush animus. This gives him 2" extra movement. Then it is forced to run.

Pregame

She had been tracking a band of Cephalyx and their slaves for a few miles. They seemed to have been searching for something and had yet to find it.

Thor 2 Electric Bugaloo


Where Iron Man 3 felt like an epilogue to the Avengers movie, Thor- The Dark World is the first chapter on the way to another Avengers adventure.


I was pleasantly surprised by the first Thor film. I went in with mild expectations and left feeling pretty damn impressed.
