So, so many awesome things happened this week that I wanna talk about. I also need to make up for being sick as hell last week. So I'm gunna talk about a Plot Script for a TV show that I was given a chance to read (The guy who plays Chewbacca is already signed on.), give a short rant about vampires, and then talk about a Web Comic I came across earlier today that I fell in love with.
Firsts things first. Dead Reckoning at High Moon. You won't read anything on it on the web because it's in Pre-pre-pre-production. I mean early stages. It may not even make it to TV. It's a TV show that tackles the challenge of vampires, werewolves, zombies, bat creatures and dream demons in the Old West. It takes ancient Hopi and Mayan legends mixes them together in a way and uses them as the Origin stories for Vampires and Werewolves as well as a slew of other supernatural creatures that I mentioned above. The guy got vampires right and gave them an awesome power that I commend him for. Using their blood to make zombies. It may not be completely original but it's damn cool. From what I can tell it centers around a man named Dallas Blackburn who lost his family to vampires and is travelling with the former Hopi tribe who are now a tribe of Werewolves in order to stop the vampires. There are plenty of other characters including the drunk explorer Hanz, The Billy-Bob bounty hunters(One of which single handedly wields a gattling gun at the end battle.), Father Patrick and his nuns(Father Patrick is a pimp and the Nuns are prostitutes), and Los Docenta Banditos or something like that who at the end become Los Tres Banditos. It's pretty awesome from what I've read and I can't wait till it comes on television. If it makes it.
The second thing is a little rant on vampires. I'm not a big fan of how vampires are being portrayed in media these days. Vampires grow weak in sunlight. Vampires are intimidating, but most of all, vampires cannot be sexual creatures. To put it plain and simple, they're dead. They're are no longer human, and thus they have become above our petty views on sexuality. Sure, they use it from time to time to feed, but it's not something they should favor. If you are already not agreeing with me, let me ask you this question, Would you fuck your food?.
Anyway, lastly is a web comic I came across this morning. I just finished reading it all before I posted. I read alot of web comics like Questionable Content, Least I Could Do, and Ctrl+Alt+Del. This is a typical web comic about an air headed sexual deviant with a loyal if somewhat violent best friend and strange lovable, but pretty evil pet, and a loyal girlfriend despite his idiocies... Wow, I think I just described an amalgamation of all three of the above mentioned comics. Anyway without further ado I present Nerf This. It's pretty cool.
Anyway, that's all for today. Remember, I'm Lee and I'm awesome.
