A quick note that I haven’t decided to fully recap this series,... More »

IRIS 2′s main promo poster
The main poster is out for upcoming blockbuster sequel IRIS 2, and I’ll say this for the franchise: It sure knows its brand, ’cause it’s clinging to that concept like a second lead clings to his unrequited love, with little deviation.

Javabeans Playlist #3: Actor edition

It’s somewhat satisfying, though a little pat for my tastes, but most importantly it gives each of our characters an... More »
