[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/ateam.mp3] 10 years ago a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from maximum security stockades. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! The A-Team

IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! HALO Legends
[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/halo.mp3] So a few years ago this new sci-fi franchise got started. It had some interesting ideas based on established literature and the first entry did a lot better than anybody could have expected. It spawned a couple of sequels that really didn’t measure up to the original but people really ate it up anyway… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! HALO Legends
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Splice
[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/splice.mp3] When I was growing up I would hear of stories, movies or episodes of television that were touted as ‘not for the faint of heart.’ They promised thrills and surprises aimed at an adult audience, one that could handle the nature of the material. Not that they wouldn’t have nightmares afterward, mind you, just… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Splice
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Lady Death
[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/lady_death.mp3] Not every adaptation has to be 100% accurate in its translation of the source material. I mean, honestly, how would the Lord of the Rings film trilogy had been helped by the presence of Tom Bombadil? In spite of his absence, the films are faithful to the spirit of the books, encapsulating the epic… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Lady Death
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Prince of Persia
[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/pop.mp3] Translating a story from one medium to another can be a tricky prospect. Video games in particular have had a rough time getting comfortably adapted from their interactive medium to non-interactive means of storytelling such as book or movies. Some seem more inclined for this sort of translation than others on concept alone –… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Prince of Persia
Back On Track
The holidays can throw everybody for a loop. I’m no different. Travel schedules, inclement weather and other factors unique to this time of year tend to play havoc with routines and timetables. Things have started to normalize a bit and it’s time I took a bit of stock of where I am now and where… Continue reading Back On Track
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! The Emperor's New Groove VIDEO
At last… IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! as I’ve envisioned it. [tube]z2mRrjkBK0I[/tube] Please provide feedback, comments and criticisms. I want to make this series better. Also, if there’s a way to make this player default to 360p, I’d love to find it. 240p is icky.
Have A Plan
I think part of the problem with the previous deadlines for my upcoming video project was I didn’t establish any guidelines for what to do before the deadline hit. So let’s fix that, shall we? It should make the week to come more organized and the overall project a bit less intimidating. Today I will… Continue reading Have A Plan
48 Hour Hiatus
It’s been a long, long year. I’ve maintained a schedule for most of that year, with posts every day and Netflix every Friday. I want to move the thing forward to its next logical step, but that requires time and energy. Most of the last couple weeks, I haven’t had the time. Today? I just… Continue reading 48 Hour Hiatus
Full Burners
Courtesy Terribleminds The best way for me to avoid feeling the doldrums of both the season and my situation are to stay busy. I throw myself into my writing during the commute and immerse myself in games and other media while I’m home. Yes, I’m an awful procrastinator when it comes to chores because of… Continue reading Full Burners
