No more Drive

Well, that was quick. A thing many posters at Whedonesque don’t seem to get is that Tim has a development deal with Fox (the studio, not the network), so they’re paying him whether the series works or not. Yeah, there won’t be another episode order, but it’s not like he would have gotten kickbacks on the ad sales, anyway. He’ll be back.

Movies

In today’s movie adventure, my date and I saw Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters and Hot Fuzz. ATHF was, I believe, as good as it could possibly be, with the opening bit better than I could have imagined. I was a little surprised and disappointed that the performance wasn’t Dethklok, but it was still wonderful.
I feel like HF was trying to do too much, but it was still okay.
The real surprise, though, was the previews. I wanted to go see every movie previewed at ATHF except one, and that one I would Netflix, though I might not make it past the first five minutes. Those movies?
Knocked Up
Waitress
Superbad
1408 (my date did not want to see this one, but John Cusack and Sam Jackson sold me despite Stephen King)
The Condemned is the one I would Netflix and wish it was Battle Royale.
Wow, you’re saying to yourself, Craig sure is a big girl. But Seth Rogan and Nathan Fillion, man! They’ve created ideal date movies for nerds. But why?

How were these still available?

The rush to grab every possible domain name seems to have slowed down a whole lot, because Buffy Season 8 Issue 1 has been out there for more than a month, and thricewise.com and thricewise.org were both still available a few minutes ago (thricewise.everything-else still is, as far as I recall or care).

I bet somebody already grabbed the gmail address, but I don’t care enough to check.
