Twilight Time

Posted by The Purple Wyrm on August 15, 2010 under Movies & TV

I admit I’ve never read the books. I haven’t seen the movie. I have no desire to watch some emo teen throwing herself under the wheels of an unsuitable glittery vampire stud.

You should see my eyes rolling right now.

But hey, the teen girls seem to like it.

A List of Fantasy Movies

Posted by The Purple Wyrm on May 13, 2010 under Movies & TV

What?

You seriously thought I was gonna write a list of all fantasy movies from forever ago to now?  You’re crazy!

I could make a list of fantasy movies that are realistic, or a list of fantasy movies worth seeing (not always the same ones ya know), but it would be rather boring.

I’m an important guy.  I don’t got time to make lists, ya know?

I tell you what, sign up to Netlifx or head out to Blockbuster, rent a bunch of DVDs and make your OWN frikken list of fantasy movies.

Scourge of Feathers Comedic Fantasy Blog Fiction

Posted by The Purple Wyrm on May 10, 2010 under Movies & TV

Check out the Scourge of Feathers fantasy serial fiction blog written by none other than M. Lori Motley.

Scourge of Feathers Fantasy Fiction Blog

Scourge of Feathers Fantasy Fiction Blog

Things are getting interesting in the forgotten kingdom of Barend. Captain Harlon spars with wife and magpie over his interest – purely professional! – of the new lady in town. The new lady in town reveals she is actually there to work. Work!

In the words of the immortal Vizzini, “Inconceivable!”

And now there’s an orc. A non-farming orc. An orc with a big-ass war hammer and a flamboyantly-dressed minder.

Scourge of Feathers is a comedic fantasy fiction blog with new chapters added weekly.
M. Lori Motley started this project to have fun, though she says she hopes people actually come to read the thing. Why? ‘Cause she thinks they’ll have fun reading it to. I’ve read some of the chapters. They are funny. I mean, not like I’m rolling around laughing my ass off or anything, but yeah… I laughed.

Ya see, Barend is this really screwy place. No one wants it, no one visits it… well, normally. And all of a sudden these people (and orcs) start showing up… screwing with the status quo, ya know? And there’s this self-appointed “King’s Own Guard,” who is really just some shmuck in a homemade uniform, who goes around trying to make money and avoiding trouble.

Lori’s got a good sense of humor. And it’s not that pffft-whoops-I-farted adolescent crap either. It’s actually funny in a dry sort of way.  Check it out.
