Preacher S1 Ep 4 ‘Monster Swamp’

Last week Sheriff Root defined Annville as a Monster Swamp, which is this episode’s title. Anville has a literal monster in Cassidy, and you have those weirdos who might be angels, but the real people are the monsters here.

EwTube – Celebrity Japanese Commercials

The use of foreign celebrities in Japanese commercials is a common thing. Lost in Translation helped me understand this happens because it’s quite lucrative.

Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers – RePlay

“My name’s Knight. Gabriel Knight” I’ve been into point-and-click games ever since I was a kid. There’s something about them that fascinates me but I can’t put my finger on what. The first video game I ever played was LucasArts’ Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade so that might be the reason. In those days […]

Preacher S1 Ep 3 ‘The Possibilities’

I’m going to assume this will be a common reocurrence when it comes to Preacher, as last week’s opening scene had me thinking “Are they doing what I think they’re doing?!” and the answer in that case was “So it seems, so enjoy the ride”. And while this week’s scene wasn’t doing that for me […]
