  • A PvP before noon? FREAKY!

    Posted on January 6th, 2004 thehutch No comments

    As Scott Kurtz admitted in his assessment of the last year, PvP’s strip has been posted in the afternoons or evenings for so long that we pretty much expect it. But today PvP‘s latest strip was up this morning.

    My world doesn’t make sense anymore! First, DC Comics is going to perhaps kill off my favorite character, which will definitely result in my dropping all DC books and thus ending 25 years of DC Comic collecting. And now PvP is being published in the mornings again? PvP being late is the solid rock on which I stand, all other ground is sinking sand. Woe is me, I have nothing to rely on anymore.

  • A late but great LOTR:ROTK review

    This The New Yorker review of Return of the King came out just a week ago, but I think it’s one of the best yet.

  • “39 Steps” remake

    Posted on January 6th, 2004 thehutch No comments

    The New York Post reports:

    ALFRED Hitchcock’s classic “The 39 Steps” is set to get a makeover. Carlton America, which owns rights to the flick, has hired Robert Towne to rewrite and direct the 1935 thriller which starred Robert Donat, Madeleine Carroll and Lucie Mannheim. Towne’s credits include “Mission Impossible: 3″ and “Chinatown.”

    While 39 Steps was great, I don’t know that it needs a remake. I’d rather see an update of Hitchcock’s underrated “Saboteur.”

    By the way: “Mission: Impossible 3″? After MI confused most of the audience and MI2 was a mishmash of action? (Kurt Belcher believe this may be a typo for M:I2)
