Nibble, Nibble, Little Mouse

[STORE UPDATE] Thanks to the diligence of the Blind Ferret team, the HijiNKS Ensue Store is un-hacked, re-upped and back-backed! I’ve lost over a 1/4 of my merch revenue for the month (and Jan/Feb are already slow months) so let’s all go celebrate by BUYING SOMETHING!!!

My temporary PRINT SHOP with my BRAND NEW “TESLA UNCOILED” print and many of my most popular large prints is still up and running and probably will be until I return from JoCo Cruise Crazy 3. Get on that mess while you can!

Randy tweeted most of what you see him saying in panel 2, and I threatened to twist his tweets into a comic. He responded by agreeing that it was a good idea. Then he shaved off most of his hair. I can only assume his response and the head shaving were all part of the same decision making process. Then he shaved off the rest of his hair, but kept the beard. In a matter of a day he went from “Deer Hunter with a beard” to “First Runner Up International Mr. Leather 2013.”

I still don’t believe Hansel And Gretel: Witch Exploders was a real thing. It’s more likely a psychic projection of one of Jeremy Renner’s recurring nightmares where he isn’t famous any more and he has to start doing SyFy made for TV “movies” to pay the rent.

COMMENTERS: I get the impression Hansel and Gretel was shot BEFORE Jeremy Renner got Bourne Legacy, MI4:GP and Avengers. It seems post those films Renner would have had enough cache to turn that fairy turd down. What movie or TV show do you recall where an actor seemed to be playing below their station. Did it signal a downtown in their career? Did it end their career? Did it change your perception of the actor?

  1. Prometheus made me really question whether or not Ridley Scott is invested in the movie process like he used to be, or if he has decided that his legacy is going to be mostly about getting paid. There wasn't a single moment in the entire movie where a single person did a thing that made actual human sense.

    I won't put any spoilers here because I hate it when people do that, but if you haven't seen it, let me just simultaneously congratulate and envy you.

  2. It was amazing…. it was stupid and silly but it knew it was a stupid action film and abused it.

    Honestly one of the best films I've seen in the last 5 months.

  3. I had to read part of the commentary twice, because my brain thought it would be funny to read 'Ron Jeremy' instead of 'Jeremy Renner'. I bet the movie would have been a lot more fun if my brain was casting it.

    • Really? I liked Zardoz, just for being so weird and hippie. That flying head…the kooky effects…
      It's even better if you listen to the director's commentary

  4. Somewhere there's this George Clooney interview where he's asked about Batman & Robin and he tells the interviewer that at the premiere he was almost in tears because he knew he quite probably had just destroyed his career. And that everyone else who worked on it had probably ruined theirs as well.

    OH! OH! And Patrick Stewart was in this horrible movie called Masterminds where he and his criminal gang took over a prep school or something and he got totally owned by some little shit delinquent. Came out in '97, and my dad and I were all, "Did…did he lose a bet?"

  5. It's too bad Randy didn't enjoy the movie. My friends and I had a blast! I guess you just have to know what to expect and enjoy it for that. I like the Jeremy Renner takes movies like this sometimes, where you can just bask in the over-the-top cheesiness and laugh. He's got a great sense of humor so I think that it works. Either way, if you love action movies, this is great fun.
