So X-Men origins:Wolverine is hitting theaters May 1, 2009. The flick will be a prequel to the movies and trace Logan’s life as well as his introduction to the Weapon X project. Details on the plot are guarded (I wonder if it will touch on any of Barry Windsor-Smith’s excellent Weapon X miniseries) but Sabertooth will play a heavy part as well as some other cameos. I’d be intrigued if Vindicator and Maverick where dropped in, some good ole Canuck supes.
Jason and Chuck have a Force-fest in this Star Wars themed podcast. Of note: Chuck’s lightsaber exploits as a young child, Jason’s lowdown on the new Star Wars themed video games coming out, and why our wive’s thumb mashing control of video games trumps combo moves.
So, there I was cleaning out the basement and I come across this excellent, handmade light saber hilt. A buddy of mine (Doug, where are you man?) actually made this for me many years ago and it’s really rather cool. The main body is made from a chrome-plated tube (I think a piece of drain pipe), some black plastic flex tubing a piece of a hair brush, a faucet handle, some large metal washers, and some various bolts and switches.
