GAMING REVIEW: Magic: The Gathering, Eldritch Onslaught Intro Pack
Wizards of the Coast was kind enough to send us one of the intro packs for Innistrad. Eldritch Onslaught contains the following cards:
WWE Gets into Green Lantern, Matthew’s Head Asplode
Those crazy WWE superstars have arranged themselves into the emotional spectrum corps from the last major arcs of Green Lantern. This was definitely not something I expected to see when I went in looking for pictures of Kelly Kelly this morning.
MOVIE REVIEW: RED
I have an incredibly embarrassing admission to bring to the readers of Major Spoilers. This may very well cost me geek credibility cache, but I owe you the truth.
Here’s the thing: I have never actually read Warren Ellis’ and Cully Hamner’s graphic novel, RED. Further details will only serve to compound my lapse in fandom. For example, I consider Warren Ellis to be my favorite comics author. When I say I own EVERYTHING else that Ellis has produced, I’m not overstating the facts.
Rather than spend any additional time lamenting my contemptible actions, I have decided to instead speculate on the uniquely intrinsic benefit that my lack of exposure to the graphic novel has allotted me. I went into the Cineplex with few preconceived notions of what to expect. My red and green-tinted fanboy spectacles have been cast aside, freeing me from the inevitable comparisons that typically plague my critical palate during comic-to-film adaptations.
So, faithful Spoilerites, get ready to get your ass kicked while smiling throughout the entire journey. Red is the single most enjoyable film I’ve seen all year.

Red Trailer arrives
Way back in 2003 (seems like forever, doesn’t it?), Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner had a little project called Red, a three issue series from Wildstorm, that follows the attempted assassination of former CIA agent Paul Moses. Moses obviously doesn’t like trying to be killed, gets his old gang back together and gives back what they got.
The mini-series has been turned into a movie starring Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, Morgan Freeman, and others who are no strangers to comic book movies.
