Movies, Games 'n' Cartoons
It's official, I've become the weekly film critic guy here. Pretty cool. This week I review Stealth, as Island has been out for too long. Not as cool.
Also got the weekly video game column foisted on me today. Which will make this my first return to game writing since I worked for Disney in middle school.
And next weekend I cover the Seoul Cartoon and Animation Festival. So this week I am being paid to watch movies, play games and go see cartoons. I never expected to accomplish one of my life goals so soon. ;)

And you're in Japan. You've accomplished the dream of so many fan boys all at once.

You gotta tell me how you got this gig.

So basically, all those times I told you to stop playing those stupid games and watching those crappy cartoons and do something productive with your time were for naught, huh? Not the first time I was completely wrong. Nor the last...

Cliff: I'm in Korea. But close enough. ;)
Scott: Sheer luck. Literally.
Dad: I think in the balance of time you will be proven correct. This is just temporary usefulness of this knowledge. Kinda like how life on Earth managed to develop despite the universe but eventually entropy will win out and we'll all die. :D
