One of the things I like about New Fables as a series is that the stories within are not strictly “furry”, nor are they explicit. Many of them touch on some very adult themes, but it’s the kind of book you could give to a family member or friend to ease them into “that weird animal thing that you’re into”. The Summer 2010 collection keeps up the tradition, and has the added bonus of featuring some of my all-time favorite stories ever printed in these books.

Look we’re all adults here. And as much as we’d like to review every talking animal flick that comes along, the truth is that we don’t have the time, or the alcohol budget, to make that feasible. What we do have time for is to glance at the posters lining the hallway of our local cinemas, and make judgments about the films from a quick glance. And that’s exactly what we did.

Did you see this new Orangina ad?! Now there is marketing to a demographic, and then there is “Hey furries, when you get a boner, think of Orangina!”

Lovejoy here, along with new writers Duroc and Corvi. We’re chatting about E3 2010 and whether or not 3D and motion controlled gaming is cool or total bullshit. Here’s a hint: if it forces you to dance, or buy $200 glasses, it’s retarded.

We’re bringing back double reviews. And what better movie to splice up with two reviewers, than Vicenzo Natali’s creepy, perverse film about genetic modification and hot French chicks with scorpion tails?

I don’t think I could use a hyperbole to describe Super Mario Galaxy 2 that hasn’t already been said. I won’t claim that it’s the Second Coming of Video Game Jesus or anything, but damn, this game is really really fun.

Few modern authors have the talent of blending the classical with the modern that Neil Gaiman does. In Odd and the Frost Giants, he melds that talent with the not inconsiderable feat of writing a good children’s book. Finally, he adds that rare gift, writing a book with a fox in it*, to make a delightful little tale.
