One of the formative 10 is being remade, and it looks to be another favorite of my destroyed by CGI. Where have you gone, Ray Harryhausen? A nation turns its starving eyes to you (woo hoo hoo).
Watch the bava blog trailer!

Generations from now, they won't call it the Internet anymore. They'll just say, "I logged on to the Jim Groom this morning.
-Joe McMahon
Everything Jim Groom touches is gold. He's like King Midas, but with the Internet.
-Serena Epstein
My understanding is that an essential requirement of the internet is to do whatever Jim Groom asks of you while you're online.
-James D. Calder
@jimgroom is the Billy Martin of edtech.
-Luke Waltzer
My 3yr old son is VERY intrigued by @jimgroom's avatar. "Is he a superhero?" "Well, yes, son, to many he is."
-Clint Lalonde
Jim Groom is a fiery man.
-Antonella Dalla Torre
“Reverend” Jim “The Bava” Groom, alias “Snake Pliskin” is a charlatan and a fraud, a self-confessed “used car salesman” clawing his way into the glamour of the education technology keynote circuit via the efforts of his oppressed minions at the University of Mary Washington’s DTLT and beyond. The monster behind educational time-sink ds106 and still recovering from his bid for hipster stardom with “Edupunk”, Jim spends his days using his dwindling credibility to sell cheap webhosting to gullible undergraduates and getting banned from YouTube for gross piracy.

I’ll watch it.
Although after that trailer I wonder how much more is there to watch?
You’re missing the point with all your “meaningful experiences” blah-blah-blah.
The point is that Sam Worthington is going to be in it, and that is the point.
I believe I’ve made myself clear.
Leigh,
You internet babies have no taste.
Isn’t nostalgia great?
Medusa was CRAZY in the original with her head o’ snakes. I remember watching this so many times when we first got cable TV.
BTW–Harryhausen is still alive and kicking. My parents own a bookstore in the LA area and have him and Bradbury in periodically http://www.mysteryandimagination.com/?page=shop/disp&pid=faq&CLSN_775=12667881827758082d8686d198b660d3.
