Olivia Munn’s lawyers descend on comic retailer over fan-service funnybook
My fascination with Olvia Munn is well-documented here at YM, so you can imagine my dismay at a developing legal imbroglio involving the aforementioned host of G4’s Attack of the Show and comic book retailer Heavy Ink. The dispute in question involves a book solicited by Heavy Ink entitled Celebrity Showdown Olivia Munn. Munn’s legal [...]
Off-Topic: Superheroes in my backyard
I used to wonder what it would be like to don the spandex and beat the snot out of wrongdoers in real-life – then I turned 12.
Did I mention I live in Cincinnati? I am sad.

China Movie Blacklist Watch: The Dark Knight
Variety reports that the latest Batman film (The Dark Knight in case you’ve been living under a rock) won’t be released in China, due to ‘cultural sensitivites’. In other news, it’s been available on every street corner in Singapore since June. Grow a pair, China. Seriously.

Will the film live up to fan’s expectations? Probably impossible – but I’m willing to give [...]
“…what about the hentai tentacle monster?”
I knew I was going to like ABC Family’s new show ‘The Middle Man‘ when the above line was uttered about two minutes in.

Quick n’ Dirty Review: Iron Man
Our good friend Jason (aka ‘Centurion’ for old-skool Yellow-Menace / Destroy-All-Monsters visitors) sent us this short-but-sweet review of the new Iron Man movie.
