Neat

Whether or not you like Barack Obama, his Q&A session with a room full of nothing but elected Republicans asking him any question they want was apparently the first time this has ever happened in front of television cameras. It was basicaly a town hall with the whole audience being elected Republicans.  Again, putting aside whether or not you like the guy or his policies, if you are just fascinated by politics or a student of political history, this was definitely worth watching.

Either Republican leaders are stupid, or Barack Obama “won” the day because the consensus is he came out pretty well in this. I’d like to see this kind of  thing all the time. It’s one thing I’d like to see America adopt from England, questioning the leader and what not.  And he didn’t even need a teleprompter :)

Free advanced tickets to Adam Green’s Frozen this Thursday.

I scored two free tickets to an advanced screening of Adam Green’s cool looking flick “Frozen”. Problem is, it’s in Texas.

Dallas, to be exact. Thursday, February 4th at the The Grand 24 AMC Theater (7:30pm.)

If we have a listener or reader in the Dallas area who would want to free tickets courtesy of the Splattercast, shoot me an e-mail at splattercast@deadlantern.com

First come, first serve.

Merry Deejmas!

I almost forgot to wish a happy birthday to the one and only Deejay!

Just sayin’

New AVP gameplay video

Hat-tip to Teen*Idol for posting this link in the forum. A new gameplay video from the upcoming AVP game. I know there’s been some concern about how good this title will be when it actually comes out. This footage looks pretty cool.

Worldwake prerelease weekend

This coming weekend is the prerelease for the new Magic set, Worldwake. Unofficial sources have full spoilers. I’m sure the official spoiler will catch up by the weekend.

I’m planning to go to tournaments on both Saturday and Sunday here in Lincoln. The worldwide player base is up and more stores are getting the opportunity to do prereleases. I’m excited to support a new location for Magic here in town on Sunday, in addition to going to the big event at the more established shop on Saturday.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game and you have access to an Xbox 360, I heartily recommend the Live Arcade version of the game, Duels of the Planeswalkers. It’s an excellent introduction and will teach you all the basics in a pretty fun package.
