What to Watch Tonight- Superheroes and Trash
We are getting closer to the start of fall programming!
Bachelor Pad (ABC)- Season premiere. I don't watch these shows, so if anyone can clue me in I will post it on the site. Seriously, anything you say I will post. I don't care enough about this show to fact check.
Hoarders (A&E)- Saw a preview for this the other night and it looks fantastic. An older lady is hoarding in 16 lockers at a storage unit. I think this calls for a crossover with "Storage Wars." I think it'd be great to watch those guys bid on this crap.
Blazing Saddles (AMC)- A classic and a favorite of mine. Half of my jokes when I was twelve came from this movies. Come to think of it, not much has changed.
Superheroes (HBO)- This documentary is about 'Real Life Superheroes' also called 'Extreme LARPing.' When I used to do this as a kid I would get chased off and now these people are getting their own movie? I was ahead of my time.
Netflix: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring- After watching "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" this past weekend I was reminded of the brilliance of Andy Serkis. This is the only LOTR on Netflix, but it is a good reminder of a great character that he brought to life, Gollum.
Let me know what you will be watching tonight in the comments.

Game of Thrones Special Effects
As a huge fan of both the HBO series "Game of Thrones" and the G.R.R. Martin series of books, A Song of Ice and Fire, I am stoked when anything relating to either comes out. The following video was brought to my attention today and it doesn't disappoint. It shows how some of the special effects were created while set to the tune of the series theme song. Enjoy.
A video like this makes me wish I spent five years in college learning special effects, but knowing me I would end up producing something along the quality of "Birdemic." I am not going to list the comments here, but there are a few good ones if you are so inclined.
