The image is a little big so I'll just link it. It's a teaser pic of Rorschach from the impending Watchmen movie. The picture isn't much to get worked up over either way, but between the director's recent credit (regardless of how well it works on it's own level), and the quote of his in the article, I'm expecting, even more than before, that this will well trump all previous attempted adaptation of Alan Moore material and create a black hole...of suck. _________________ The old Jastermereel account seems to have been killed in an unfortunate email changing accident.

Linked to avoid irony.
Quote: | They used a well known template to create his Myspace page. The template was designed by NewsVineFounder and CEO Mike Davidson (original template is here). Davidson gave the template code away to anyone who wanted to use it, but asked that he be given credit when it was used, and told users to host their own image files.
McCain?s staff used his template, but didn?t give Davidson credit. Worse, he says, they use images that are on his server, meaning he has to pay for the bandwidth used from page views on McCain?s site.
Davidson decided to play a small prank on the campaign this morning as retribution. Since he?s in control of some of the images on the site, he replaced one that shows contact information with a statement:
Today I anounce that I have reversed my position and come out in full support of gay mariage?particularly marriage between two passionate females.
