Alan Moore is launching a magazine, of all things. That Melinda Gebbie and Kevin O'Neill are contributing is no surprise, but he also has Graham Linehan, Steve Aylett and Josie Long involved.

The trailer for the remake of The Prisoner doesn't do much to change my original opinion that it's a fundamentally bad idea, even with Ian McKellen. It doesn't help that the trailer is nearly ten minutes long; trailers should not be so long that you get bored before you've even seen the show.

Though I did also find time for Popular, drunken singalongs to the best album ever and setting myself on fire, this weekend was largely occupied with the Brontosaurus Chorus video shoot. If you've ever felt that between the 28 Weeks Later scene outside the Noble, and Shaun of the Dead in Crouch End, there was too big a zombie gap, then your worries are over - shambling undeath is now available atop Crouch Hill too. The first day of Parkland Walk filming was interrupted by joggers (including Bernard Butler), dogwalkers and children who will probably be scarred for life; yesterday we were next to a soft p0rn shoot.

The Rover is pretty cool, and I like the cookie cutter way The Village is laid out. But Six? American? Oh dear me no.

And the bit with the old Six only emphasises how wrong that is. But it was the other villagers who got to me most, for reasons I can't quite pinpoint.

Does that magazine sound awesome or not?!?! Hmmm.

I love that you read a site called hypergeek you sad man! ;P

I don't, I just have a Google alert set up for Alan Moore. Which means I am also kept well informed of the activities of a New Zealand magistrate and a US fireman of the same name.
