Is this stuff for real? I don’t really care. I want it to be real!

Part of me wants to go get some electronic equipment there and monitor the vital stats of the master and his victim and see what is going on. Measure any unexplained energy exchange, see if there is any physical artifact to that blow…

But then on the other hand I really want to believe that you can kill a man by channeling your chi at a specific meridian point (or whatever they do)! So whenever I watch stuff like that I really try hard to suspend my disbelief, suppress my scientific curiosity and just enjoy the awesome. mrgreen

The Amazing Screw-on-Head

Thursday, August 3rd, 2006
Screw on Head

Scifi channel is hosting a pilot of a brand new, trippy animated show titled “The Amazing Screw-on-Head“. Apparently they are trying to see whether or not it is worth it to pick it up for a season or two. The full length episode is available on the linked page, and (of course) on YouTube here.

I personally like it. In fact I can’t see a reason not to like it. You have your crazy steam-punk machines, zombies, mummies, vampires, werewolves, ancient demigods, a machine-gun toting monkey, magical turnip of power, Abe Lincoln, and a man-servant named Groin. And this is just the first episode. mrgreen
