30 Days of Night

Man, did they ever decide to pad this out. Two hours? Really? I mean the entire first series takes like 10 minutes to read. And thats WITH the plot-hooks that point to the expanded world. Oh well, the movies nice enough, nothing spectacular though...

Sunday Trade: The Couriers


The Couriers by Brian Wood and Rob G

The Couriers is Wood and G's love letter to over the top violence and New York street culture. Super bad-ass couriers Special and Moustafa take a job to steal a little girl away from some Triad goons. The Girl has been marked for death by some crazy ass Chinese general. And The General is willing to wage war in the streets to kill her...

The whole thing is crazy and wild like a terrible, terrible action movie. I mean they're blowing up cars on the freeways and Chinese soldiers are flying in attack choppers and this is 2003 NYC. But once you ignore the complete implausibility of it all it makes for a fun ride...
