A Day at the Movies, Part 1 →
I won’t see you all day, Tumblr. Here’s why: I’m going to be in a movie theater for most of the day, watching five of this year’s ten Best Picture nominees. I’ve never done AMC’s Best Picture Showcase before, although I’ve wanted to; this year, even though none of my friends wanted to take the plunge, I’m going for it. Here are the movies on the...

The commentary makes it even more awesome.
“Oh, the Frenchman! Oh-ho, monsieur. Wow, the boys took a beating on that one, mmm. That guy needs a hug. Those are the moments that change your life if you’re a man, I tell you what…”

Destructoid.com expands to West Coast →
Yesterday, Destructoid (the videogame website I write for) was featured in the business section of the Miami Herald — we recently opened an office in San Francisco, the nexus of the gaming press. It’s an exciting time, and the article does a good job of highlighting the site’s growth as well as its continuing challenges.

Leaving the dream and the dismissal of effort
xavdematos:
You’re only as good as the last thing you’ve done. If the last thing you did was quit then YOU are a failure, nothing else. Just be a fucking adult and admit it.
That’s an excerpt from a much longer and much more fantastic essay from Xav; please go read it. I strongly echo his sentiments. If I was in this game (*rimshot*) for the money, well, I wouldn’t be.

The Mariana Trench (to scale) →
Whoa.
P.S. Isn’t The Challenger Deep, like, an AWESOME name for the deepest known part of the world’s oceans? Like, I immediately think of a booming voice shouting, “THE CHALLENGER DEEP,” as a camera zooms in on the surface of the Pacific and then plunges all the way down to 36,000 feet below sea level. It would work really well as a Discovery Channel special or something,...
