Your laptop has crashed and refuses to boot the OS. The only option you have is to reformat the drive, losing all your non-backed up data in the process. Thankfully you have a external enclosure for your SATA drive. However, when you try to access the files you find out they're inaccessible due to being registered to the non-bootable laptop. How do you get around the problem? This tutorial will teach you.

First things first. Connect the SATA drive (drive A) to your backup computer. Or, if you have another drive (drive B) laying around, put your OS on that and use it to boot up the previously mentioned laptop. Once you have a working laptop, attach the SATA drive (drive A) you wish to get the files off of and find the folders you wish to copy over.

Straight copying won't work, nor will trying to access to the folders. You'll need to right click on the folder you wish to gain access to then select "Properties" from the drop down menu. Now, go to the "Security" tab located on the top of the new window.

Step 1

In "Security" click on "Advanced". A new dialog box should open. In this box go to the "Owner" tab where you can see the current owner registered to this specific folder.

Step 2

Click the "Edit" button which will bring up a new window where you can see the current user who has control of the folder as well as any other available user.

Step 3

Click the user account you wish to give permissions to. Make sure the check-box next to, "Replace owner on sub-containers and objects" is selected. Click apply and a dialog box should open which will give permissions to all the files within the folder/location you which to access.

Once this process is done, you'll be asked to close the properties window then reopen it to view the changes made. Do this to verify if the permission we're successfully changed to the new laptop user. From here, you should have complete control over the folders you wish to access.

Step 4

Want to know what happened the past few days in nerd culture? WEEK IN GEEK is your quick fix to catch up with the rest of the fanboys out there.

MOVIES

The new Terminator film has been pushed back several days from June 26th to July 1, 2015.

My take: Just please don't screw this up...

Terminator may take a few more days to get here, but apparently Arnold Schwarzenegger could end up being the villain in Avatar 2.

My take: This could be awesome or horrible, but if James Cameron thinks its a good idea, I shouldn't doubt the man.

Jack Black will be starring in a GOOSEBUMPS movie.

My take: Say Cheese and Die? Bad Hare Day? Egg Monsters from Mars? What is it going to be? Probably awful, but hey, Goosebumps was a big part of my childhood, so that's kind of cool.

VIDEO GAMES

Mighty No.9 reached its goal for consoles.

My take: You'd think Capcom would realize that people would like more Mega Man games after this, right?

HOLLYWOOD

Mark Wahlberg finally graduated high school after completing online courses to get his degree.

My take: Good for him. Nobody should drop out of high school and everyone should always try to learn new things.

We've had it pretty good these last couple of seasons in regards to anime with this recent one probably being the best one yet. Among all the shows, there are bound to be ones you might miss or overlook. Dog and Scissors is one of these. I'll try my best to avoid spoilers, but be aware, there might be a few things in the following that can be considered spoiler territory.

Insert random neuter joke.

Episodes 1-3 sets up the show's premise. After a being killed by a robber while trying to protect a woman, Kazuhito heads off to the afterlife. During his spiritual journey, he begs to live so he can read his favorite novelist's last book which has yet to be written. Somehow his pleads are hear and he's brought back to life...as a dachshund.

Making matters more interesting, he's then adopted by the same woman he was killed saving. In a coincidental turn of events, this woman turns out to be his favorite novelist, Natsuno Kirihime. Now, as a dog he can't talk, yet Kirihime can somehow understand his thoughts. Aside from her and her editor, no one can understand Kazuhito.

If this premise sounds weird already, just wait as the show starts leaning into harem territory by introducing new girl after girl, even a overprotective, crazy little sister type. Of course, the only woman for Kazuhito is Kirihime who is the perfect yandere/tsundere type. She subtly expresses her feelings for this dog who's about as thickheaded as they come and only cares about books. Yes, he's a neet. A book otaku. Only caring about the 2D. We catch a glimpse of the place where he lived as a human and, as to be expected, he went so far as to rent a separate apartment just for his books.

Getting back on track, episode two finishes the first episodes story by having Kirihime and Kazuhito track down the robber that killed Kazuhito. From this confrontation with Kazuhito's killer we get a glimpse at how Kirihime's books influence other people. This actually drives home the message on how impactful books are in our lives. This point in the episode is something that pops up repeatedly over the course of the series. Further proving how important books are to us as humans.

Episode three is mostly there to serve as an introduction to Kazuhito's sister and Kirihime's editor. Kirihime being a sadist, we get the opposite side of things with her editor who is a masochist. One thing I forgot to bring up yet is Kirihime's trademark scissors. She always carriers around with her these pair of scissor which she's not afraid to use on annoyances or on a certain thick headed, loudmouth dog.

There's a lot of humor within these first three episodes as well as great set-up for things to come. What comes off as some weird beastality, erotica show, just happens to have a pretty good story to tell. So, if you're looking for something really out there to watch, or want a break from the norm, take a look at Dog & Scissors. Now streaming on CrunchyRoll.

Always one to take an opportunity by the reins, I've started work on a script for this year's Top Cow Talent hunt. This is the second year they have held this illustrious competition and if you have any inkling of being in the comic book industry as either a writer or an artist, I would highly recommend you look it up here. That being said, how are you supposed to write a story for a universe you know nothing about? In doing my due diligence, I took to the internet and my local comic book shop to try and educate myself, and there I stumbled across a gem: Cyber Force. More specifically, 2012's re-launch of the series.

If you haven't heard of Top Cow before, that's OK; neither had I. Top Cow is the publisher of the infamous Witchblade series and The Darkness which has also been adapted into a line of video games. It's helmed by Mark Silvestri who penned the original Cyber Force comics and is one of the earliest offshoots of the well-known Image comics imprints.


Also, if you haven't heard of Cyber Force, I don't blame you. While it's been one of the company's flagship titles, it's never elevated itself above the status of being just another poorly executed super hero team up book. It follows an assembly of cybernetic enhanced stooges fighting the forces of the evil mega corporation Cyberdata. I'm sure there are fans that would dispute my distaste, but perhaps I'm just turned off by how superb the new series is. In comparison, there is no comparison.

Their humble origins.

The newest incarnation of the Cyber Force is brought to you once again with Mark Silvestri as co-writer, who will be joined by Matt Hawkins in creating what they are calling a "bio-cybernetic steampunk" in a "cutting edge world based on real technology." Most notable additions to the team however is the art department. Khoi Pham of Mighty Avengers, Hercules, and Daredevil fame is turning out some of the most squee-inducing pages in print at this moment, and if you aren't getting lost in his elegantly crafted character designs then you're probably appreciating the color contributed by his partner in crime, Sunny Gho. In all seriousness, this is a pretty series with plenty of eye candy to be found.

Left to Right: Mark Silvestri, Khoi Pham

You don't have to know anything about Top Cow or it's universe to pick up and read this installment of the Cyber Force which is probably the best part about it. It's neatly self-contained so all you need to do is grab your copy and start flipping. Thus far, we've found our ragtag group of cyborg degenerates and defunct military models hiding in the underbelly of the big city just trying to get by. They live under constant threat by their previous employer, a military conscription and black ops firm known as the CDI. It's when Caren, daughter to CDI's president, stumbles upon their hideout that things get all shaken up and ends in an all-out battle for survival and the future of mankind as a whole. The new story reinvents the primary cast giving them a new livelihood, and trims the fat right off the top. It's a clever and gritty adaption to the original series that offers plenty of room to grow and develop.

Taken from Issue #3 of Cyber Force

In a surprise move, this series is also currently available absolutely free thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign that concluded its funding August 17, 2012. It raised a respectable $117,134.00 with 1,419 backers and offered incentives ranging from "internet high-fives " at the $10.00 level, to a three day, two night all expenses paid vacation to Disneyland and a chance to meet Silvestri, Hawkins and the rest of the Top Cow clan in Los Angeles for a measly $10,000.00 (which unsurprisingly went unclaimed).

You can follow the complete first five issue arc by downloading the DRM free PDF here, and then after you are thoroughly hooked, head on down to your local comic book shop to reserve your copy of issue #6 which is coming out this Wednesday (September 18, 2013).


If you are a fan of the original and think I'm out to lunch or have any ideas on what I should write about in this script to knock Top Cow's socks off, leave me a comment and I'll be sure to take it into consideration.

Broadway's Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark has recast the part of Peter Parker and found their new Spider-Man in Justin Matthew Sargent, who was apparently an alternate for the role previously before being upgraded to replace Reeve Carney.

Before you ask, the answer is no: Carney is not leaving due to an injury. Rather, he has been cast in an upcoming Showtime series called Penny Dreadful.

I've yet to see Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark and to be perfectly honest, I more than likely never will. Although the idea behind it was intriguing to me and I thought there was a chance they could pull it off, this production has just been one problem after another.

Hopefully, Sargent will do a good job and luck will be on his side.

What do you think about this casting choice? For that matter, what do you think of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark in general?

Blog Talk Radio:

"I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away."

I now fully understand why this episode of Breaking Bad was named after that Percy Shelley poem. And I wish I didn't. This is going to be a short review because I'm both physically and emotionally drained and have so much other stuff to do tonight, but here it is.

That was, without a doubt, one of the best episodes of any television show I've ever seen. It completely shattered all of my expectations, and the fact that I'm still devastated an hour later really says a lot.

R.I.P. Hank and Gomez

I can say that the transition from the flashback that opened the episode to the aftermath of the shootout was beautifully done and definitely one of my favorites in the entire series. Seeing Gomez dead, though expected like I said last week, was still rough, and the matter-of-fact way that Hank was killed was a brutal moment that was very difficult to recover from. I expected Hank to die in this episode, but not like that. I thought- no, HOPED- that Hank would make it out of the shootout alive, but it's actually a much better story point that he didn't. And it was still in the first few minutes of the episode! Then seeing Jesse's ultimate fate, being chained up to be a slave after suffering a (thankfully unseen) brutal beating, was almost worse than it would've been for Jesse to die right there in the desert. But the episode pressed on.

Once Junior found out about everything, it was obvious nothing good could happen anymore. Sure enough, one of the most shocking scenes in the episode was the confrontation between Walt and his family. What really surprised me was how physical it all was, and then Skyler actually made contact with the knife. Walt realizing that he had completely lost his family was actually an upsetting moment, but at this point he really did get what he deserved. I should probably see a therapist if I can still feel any sympathy for Walter White at all, but this is not about any of my possible mental problems.

Walter White truly has nothing left. Like the poem says and like Vince Gilligan promised in last week's Talking Bad, we definitely looked upon Walt's ("Ozymandias's") works and despaired. His empire has truly crumbled now, and that final phone conversation between Walt and Skyler was astonishing. Walt said the worst things he's ever said to anyone to his wife of all people, and as awful as they were, I maintain that Walt didn't truly mean a word of what he was saying. He most likely didn't believe Skyler when she said that no cops were involved, and he said the things he did because he knew he had to go for broke and cut all ties with his family while helping to save Skyler by making her seem far more blameless and ignorant than she actually was. We saw how upset he got by the end of that conversation, so of course he still loves them more than anything, but he did what was best for them by making himself seem like even more of a monster than he actually is, and it seemed to me like Skyler picked up on what he was doing too. Finally, Walt riding off with the "disappearer" was a pretty chilling end to one hell of a rough episode, and since Walt's fake identity is from New Hampshire, the Granite State, and next week's episode is called "Granite State," it seems like we'll finally catch up to those cryptic flash forwards.

Random Thoughts

• The only thing that disappointed me actually had nothing to do with the episode itself. Like I said last week, IMDB had lots of dead characters listed in the cast, which was very intriguing, so it was pretty disappointing to see that IMDB was misinformed and none of those characters actually appeared. Oh well, that's what I get for believing something I saw on the internet.
• I also thought it was interesting that for the first time in the history of the series, the cast and crew credits were actually placed in act 2, almost halfway through the episode, instead of in act 1 after the teaser scene. Good choice there because seeing random names would've taken away from the intensity of act 1.
• Huge moment I decided to save for this: Jesse finally found out the truth about Jane! Anyone who has heard me talk about this show knows that I've hoped Jesse would find out about her somehow, but I did NOT see this one coming. Walt and Jesse's relationship was basically beyond repair, but if there was anything left at all, that revelation shattered it. So cold and cruel on Walt's part, and as stunned as Jesse was, he knows what Walter White is capable of, so of course he believed it. Also, poor Jesse. He's a slave who's had the shit beaten out him and has been forced to cook for Todd and Uncle Jack, and he has to look at that picture of Brock and Andrea so Todd and Uncle Jack can keep him in his place. I can only hope that when we catch up to the flash forward scenes, Walt uses that gun on Uncle Jack's crew and frees Jesse, but considering I'm sure Walt blames Jesse for Hank's death, I'm sure it won't be that easy.
• What the hell was up with that dog at the very end that jumped off the side of the road? Is it symbolizing Walt being on his own now? Or maybe the dog was just as devastated as we were and couldn't take it anymore, so it wanted out. Clearly the latter is more likely.

Doritos' annual "Crash the Super Bowl" contest has a special twist this year that should already have your panties in a twist: the winner gets to work on Avengers: Age of Ultron!

The contest winner will have made the most effective and eye-catching Doritos commercial out of thousands of entries from 42 different countries around the world. The prize includes seeing your ad during Superbowl XLVIII, one million dollars and the chance to have Joss Whedon tell you how he takes his coffee. Score!!! The runner-up won't meet Loki but will get $50,000 as a consolation prize.

Submissions can be taken starting October 8th and are due by November 24th on Doritos.com

This is an amazing opportunity for a lucky fan (or group of fans, let's face it, you won't do this alone). The contest doesn't specify if it would prefer a comic book themed commercial but I wouldn't mind one.

If you've read the latest installment of Cullen Bunn's Fearless Defenders #9 (SPOILER ALERT), you know that Doctor Strange and Clea have come to a critical moment in their long-standing marital union. In a flashback, we discover that upon returning to Earth, Clea finds her husband fooling around with three scantily clad mistresses. This culminates in the final confrontation act of the issue when Clea asks Stephen for a divorce.

If you know me, you know that I have some major issues with how Stephen Strange is being written in more modern comics. One of the aspects I find unsettling about the contemporary approach to Strange is the perpetuation of the idea that the Doctor is a womanizer. Yes, that may have been the case back before Stephen became a sorcerer, but we all know that he did a moral one-eighty after meeting and training with the Ancient One.

Furthermore, the relationship and love between Doctor Strange and Clea is perhaps one of the strongest in the Marvel universe that I know of. The two have been through a hell of a lot together, from saving the world multiple times over to organizing an extradimensional coup d'etat. Stephen is crushed when Clea leaves him so that he can pursue what she perceives to be a "truer love," and this event proceeds to give birth to perhaps the best issue of Doctor Strange ever: Doctor Strange Vol. 2 #55. Time and time again, the two are separated, but issues pre-dating the past decade have had Stephen acting as the ever faithful husband.

Despite all this history, though, contemporary writers insist on "hooking up" Doctor Strange with a string of female characters such as the Night Nurse (The Oath), a college student (Defenders Vol. 4), and a bunch of lowly escorts (Fearless Defenders). In the past decade or so, Doctor Strange has become less of the noble and virtuous character he used to be and has turned into something akin to something out of House or Grey's Anatomy. This, to me, is a severe departure from the established personality of Doctor Strange and his relationship with Clea, and I find it extremely distasteful and disappointing.

Looking through Tumblr and some other social media, it's clear that there is an overall negative tone to peoples' reactions to Stephen's recent transformation into a playboy that has been simmering for some time. It would also seem that Cullen Bunn has received some feedback from fans with regard to the newly christened Strange/Clea fallout, and Bunn has very cryptically replied that there is certainly "more out there to explore" with these two. I sincerely hope that there is a possibility for reconciliation for these two in the near future, because it would be a great shame to let this relationship fall into the abyss of failed marriages in the Marvel Universe.

Hey Hey Hey Dacetacular F.A.N.!! Chris "The Dace Man" Dace here to celebrate the first of two Friday the 13ths in the year 2013. Nothing says lets celebrate horror and the 13th more than having a camp fire. That's right yours truly will be sitting by a fire sipping hot chocolate and projecting Friday the 13th out side for a night of fun. You jelly bro? With that in mine it's time to run down my top 3 Jason Vorhees movies. Yeah top three ya heard?

Slashing its way in at number 3. The original Friday the 13th

The original Friday the 13th hit theaters in 1980 and was directed by Sean S. Cunningham. Considered one of the first true slasher movies the franchise busted on the scene following a group of teenagers who are murdered while attempting to re-open an abandoned campground. The movie was prompted off the heels of John Carpenter's Halloween . The movie has gained approximately 39.7 million in gross profit on what is assumed a $550,000 budget. The film garnered mainly negative reviews upon its release but captured a huge cult following that is felt today. Now the reason I put this at number three, for all you butt hurt fans out there, technically Jason wasn't the killer in this film he made his debut in Part 2 to avenge his mother. So suck it. The film follows a murder who picks off the camp counselors one by one and is later revealed to be Mrs. Voorhees who is pretty upset her son was left to drown by previous camp counselors and clearly now she wants revenge. Best leave things abandoned that were abandoned right? Though Jason wasn't the one hacking up horny young adults in the original his mom took care of the dirty work. So technically this isn't a Jason movie but it does how ever set up a legacy that would pan out across 10 movies and for ever be held in the hearts of the cult horror followers as one of the big three and awesome ass kickers of slasher films!

Hacking its way in to Deep Space 2. Jason X

Now I know what you're thinking..."Its a terrible movie Dace you are off your damn rocker!" Well you are correct I'm absolutely bat shit crazy but I really enjoy this movie and here's why. The movie is over the top and complete gory. Isnt the whole point to slasher films to be god awful but entertaining. Jason X does that 10 fold. The mere concept of Jason being in space is a hundred times better than a leprechaun in a hood. Jason terrorizes a space team that discovered his frozen ass and decided "Hey it might be a good idea to unfreeze the dude who has a huge criminal record and a machete....what's the worst that could happen?" The worst that could happen is your future gadgets made the dude with a lazy eye in to a jacked up Supper Shredder looking mofo. Big Daddy Diesel Kevin Nash has nothing on this guy. So enter pure entertainment. I love this film and there is no way I'm taking it down from this list. One of my all time favorite murder scenes in a slasher resides in this film. Big Poppa Pump Jason is walking through a Camp Crystal Lake simulation and finds two nude lesbians. I feel like that's a beginning of an awesomely bad joke. Long story short he puts em in a burlap sack and just keeps beating the two of them on a rock where all you hear are female yelps. Not to mention the awkward romance between that dude and the android. So Deal with it this is number 2.

Having the clash of the century at number 1. Freddy vs. Jason


Now after writing an entire article dedicated to Mr. Voorhees you think I was a big fan of him right? Wrong. The reason Im doing an article based on Jason is because it's Friday the 13th. The true king of horror and my favorite slasher is sir Freddy Krueger. So when these two juggernauts when toe to toe in the 2003 slasher Freddy v.s. Jason I was pulling for the pervert on Elm Street. Don't get me wrong Jason is one of the kings of horror but Freddy brings a certain....what do you kids call it these days...Swag...to the horror scene. He busted onto the playing field in 84, and in his killing spree he hacked up Johnny Depp....that's a feather in his cap right there! Fred brought a new kind of murder to the big screen, the kind where he taunted you before you died. Jason was obviously the king of slow walking yet catching you death but Freddy was a pure genious who wanted to mess with you and possibly rape you prior to your death. So when these two squared up it was an interesting concept. They played it perfect. Freddy was forgotten and needed to be remembered in order to gain back his power, enter the log known as Jason to do his dirty work. Freddy said it perfect in the film "He'll get the blood but I'll get the glory.". The plan went perfect till Freddy realized once the dog is off the chain you cant stop him, so ring the bell and lets get it on! That's my top 3 Jason movies and yes my bias tone brought in Krueger deal with it. You don't like it tell me why?

What is up Dacetacular F.A.N.?!?!? Chris "The Dace Man" Dace bringing you another installment of YouTube Spotlight! This week we go to the parody specialists The Key Of Awesome! The group is headed up by Mark Douglas and Todd Womack from barely political and the two comic geniuses write parodies poking fun at the top hits and their artists.  Ranging from Lady Gaga to Kesha and even young Miley and One Direction, the two have pumped out with the help of many others YouTube sensations! The group formed in 2009 when Mark Douglas and Ben Relles with their first video ever, Heavy Metal Cats, which has a total of 10.6 million views!!! A quarter of a million subscribers later and seventy six music videos the Key of Awesome is still going strong!  The group has even seen success when they went on tour to perform many of their hits. The musical talents come from the core duo Douglas and Womack but the majority of female voices, and once Beiber, come from Mark's wife Anastasia. The man behind the camera Tom Small has directed the vast majority of videos we enjoy on YouTube. The group has seen much success but outside the core four there have been other contributes to the gang that help boost popularity, some of which we may see in future installments of YouTube Spotlight here on Fanboys Anonymous!

The group has hit huge success with their parodies of Ke$ha, played by the lovely Andrea Fczko,  and the always fun to play Lady Gaga, portrayed by the nerd goddess Lauren Francesca and lastly the Teenie Bop sensation Beieber presented by Jan Uckowski! The trio previously listed has stared in key roles for The Key of Awesome. Seeng some of the largest views the group has experience with their repeated portrayals of Lady Gaga, Ke$ha and Justin Beiber. Lauren Francesca out of the three holds the most apperances in Key of Awesome videos not only portraying Lady Gaga on numerous occasions but as well as other roles such as J Woww in the Jersey Shore Parody. Other re occuring roles have seen the infamous Bearded Nun! Though he lost his beard in the Lady Gaga Judas parody he was a key staple in the Key of Awesome franchise played by Michael Stevens. Two other main stays in the Key of Awesome line up are the mom and dad figures portrayed by Bricken Sparacino and Michael Birch. Oh and there's Jake....he shows up a lot to....

So check out the Key of Awesome on YouTube. Trust me you wont be disapointed.

Have you ever looked at a super hero and though, "Oh man. I would pay bottom dollar for a lot of questionably reputable plastic surgery to look just like that person."? Well, meet Herbert Chavez.

The difference is nothing if not staggering.

And for 300,000 pesos (as well as a trip to the Philippines) you, too, can look like an Asian ladyboy Clark Kent. That's right. It only takes just under 7,000 USD and 16 years worth of bad decisions. Although, perhaps finding a surgeon unscrupulous enough to take on the project would be difficult. The surgery is quite far from finished, though. Maintaining the chiseled looks of Clark Kent requires regular maintenance, which Chavez says his surgeon does for free in exchange for promotion.

In an interview, Chavez claims, "If you talk about super heroes, the expectation of people is that they are flawless, they do not get hurt, they do not die. But as human beings, we can only copy their looks."

If Superman were a real person this would be illegal.

... What about their values?

Fueled by the poor decisions of years gone by.

The whole point of super heroes are the fact that these are characters that ceaselessly stand up for what they believe to be right, and just. They're an example of overcoming things like circumstance, and tragedy. Rather than averting tragedy, Herbert is just content turning himself into one. Reading various interviews, it's clear that Chavez is a man made happier by his decision. Hopefully, as the years see him fade from Clark Kent to Bizarro he will remain complacent with the decisions he has made.

Burn Notice has come to an end with its series finale, entitled "Reckoning". Season 7's episode 13 will be the last one of the show as they are ending on their own terms. Once the episode airs, a complete review will be posted here. But for now, let's take a look back in a retrospective of the series in general.

Burn Notice, created by Matt Nix, has essentially operated in a format where there are two plotlines in each episode: one overall arc for that season (or, the series in general) that deals with Michael Westen's burn notice itself and one weekly special case that the team takes in helping someone out. This episode seems to be combining these two into one, wherein Michael is actually the person who needs help from the rest of the gang in order to turn back to the good side and not join the crusade that James has warped his mind into believing.

Supposedly, someone is going to die in this episode and while everything will be wrapped up, not everything is going to be just a bunch of smiles. In a series that kept a pretty humorous tone despite some bittersweet and sometimes flat out sad moments, I can't imagine we'll leave upset in the end.

What I would like to see in the finale

If someone is indeed going to die, it needs to be Michael's mother, Madeline. While I had previously tried to predict several times that Jesse would bite the dust, they've proven me wrong at every single opportunity. Madeline's death will hit Michael hard, but can you imagine them really killing off Fiona or Sam? I doubt it. Nor do I expect them to kill off Michael himself. That would be a bit too cliche and depressing.

Madeline's death, however, could result in Michael and Fiona settling down to raise Charlie. After all, what's a better motivator to give up a life of danger than to raise a child with the woman/man that you love?

I've been hoping for the longest time that in the end, our heroes would decide to run a private investigator service and still kind of operate jobs, but just on a less explosive scale, so I'd like to see that included in here as well.

Oh, and there has to be some blueberry yogurt ;)

Reckoning Episode Review

After the last episode, we were left wondering if Michael would side with Sonya or Fiona. Obviously, Michael sided with Fiona and shot Sonya to her death. James gets away and Michael is in shock, feeling guilty about what he did to the point where he even almost commits suicide (via saving Jesse and Sam in a situation that was too risky).

The strawberry ice cream scene was one of my favorites, and I originally thought to myself "this is missing an 'I love you' moment for real". Thankfully, we got that later on with the phone call. Madeline didn't have to die, in my opinion. Nobody HAD to die. But out of everyone in the cast, it makes the most sense and I'm glad they didn't go with anyone else, despite how I kept thinking Jesse was doomed from the start.

"Should we shoot them?" was a nice little reference to the beginning of the series. The same with "you know spies, a bunch of bitchy little girls".

Michael and Fiona faking their deaths and going to Ireland to raise Charlie whilst setting up a potential spinoff for Jesse and Sam makes a lot of sense, and I'm glad that they acknowledged that they knew that Michael and Fiona were alive. I also liked the referencing of telling the story, as that could explain the narration.

Overall, I think this ended things the way it should have ended, and as a fan of the show since the beginning, I'm happy with what it all boiled down to.

Cheers, Burn Notice. Thanks for all the memories and congratulations on a great series!

Want to know what happened the past few days in nerd culture? WEEK IN GEEK is your quick fix to catch up with the rest of the fanboys out there.

MOVIES

Rob Corddry wants to play the villain in Ant-Man, which is now moved up from November 6, 2015 to July 31, 2015 to get away from the 24th Bond film.

My take: With the horrible schedule, the lack of a confirmation that Hank Pym is even Ant-Man, and all the other problems going on with this, fuck it, let's have Rob Corddry play the villain. He could pull off serious, probably. It's not like this movie is going to be awesome anyway.

Along with the Alex Pettyfer, Rachel Hurd-Wood, Benedict Cumberbatch and other random rumors for Star Wars Episode 7 casting, two more names have popped up: Liam McIntyre and Ksenia Solo.

My take: At this point, it's getting beyond ridiculous. The likelihood that Ksenia Solo is playing the daughter of Han Solo is just laughable. It's the type of IMDB jump-to-conclusions-over-nonsense bullshit that we see all the time, like when every person is cast in a comic book movie and people think they're automatically playing a character from the comics. He has red hair and he's in a Spider-Man movie? HE MUST BE CARNAGE AAAAAH!!

Sir Ian McKellen will play Sherlock Holmes is an adaptation of "A Slight Trick of the Mind", a novel by Mitch Cullin.

My take: Sherlock Holmes, despite being such an old character, just keeps sticking around, doesn't it? Two TV shows are running at the moment about it, Robert Downey Jr. just had two fairly recent movies based on the character, etc. Hey, if that's what people want, give it to them. McKellen will be cool.

Another remake of The Island of Dr. Moreau in the works?

My take: I've personally never seen any adaptations (unless you count the parody on the Halloween episode of The Simpsons), but it sounds like an interesting story. Maybe I'll check this new one out.

David Tennant as Plastic Man in Justice League?

My take: Yeah right. I'll believe it when I see something concrete.

Pirates of the Caribbean 5 has been pushed back a year from summer 2015 to summer 2016.

My take: If that's what they need to do, then they need to do it. Frankly, I thought the third one sucked so badly that I never saw the fourth.

VIDEO GAMES

The developers of Far Cry 3 are currently developing a Japanese-inspired RPG called Child of Light.

Sean Mitchell's take: Not only is the genre change surprising, but the unique art direction the game is taking as well.

FIFA 14's demo is now available for Xbox, PC and PS3.

Shaun Walker's take: This feels like a step backwards in the series. I, for one, have had enough of the same garbage EA feeds us every year. That's why I'm not making the switch to Pro Evo.

TELEVISION

Three possible actors that could play The Flash on Arrow are Matt Barr, James Mackay and Grant Gustin according to Latino-Review.

My take: I've never heard of these guys before, so I have no real comment.

Cynthia Addai-Robinson will be playing Amanda Waller in Arrow season 2.

My take: She's certainly not the older, overweight type of character I was expecting, but I guess she'll do fine.

October 16th, 8 P.M. ET on ABC, there will be a Toy Story special called "Toy Story of Terror".

My take: Neat. I love the Toy Story movies, so I'll have to check this out.

COMIC BOOKS

Geoff Johns is leaving Aquaman in the hands of Jeff Parker (Thunderbolts).

My take: I've yet to check out his run on Aquaman but I've heard good things.

HOLLYWOOD CELEBRITIES

A rumor sprung up that Jack Nicholson is retiring from acting due to "memory loss", but it turned out that this was false.

My take: Glad to hear that it isn't true, as Nicholson's awesome, even if he does tend to play the same character in most of his films (but hey, a lot of actors do).

Hey, everyone! Even though I haven't gotten the chance to go to a show myself yet, I've been a big fan of Tommy Tallarico's Video Games Live concert series for years. Not too long ago, PBS sponsored a filming of the concert, which they later released on DVD and Blu-ray, and so far a few soundtrack albums have been released, including the filmed concert called Level 2.

For anyone who doesn't know about it or would like a refresher, Video Games Live brings a symphony orchestra and video games together, playing themes from a wide variety of games. But this isn't a typical symphony concert; clips from the games are shown during performances, lasers and other effects amplify the experience, and everyone just seems like they're having the time of their lives. It's more like symphony/rock concert experience.

Now that you're up to speed, the creators of Video Games Live want to go all out and create Level 3, another concert DVD/Blu-ray release with an accompanying album, currently set for release in February of 2014. A lot of exciting game additions have been announced, including Street Fighter II, Silent Hill 2, Skyrim, Shadow of the Colossus, Journey, and more. But they need a little help to make this all happen, so Tommy Tallarico created a Video Games Live Level 3 Kickstarter with a goal of $250,000 and the funding ends this Friday, September 13, at 9:20 AM Eastern time. Honestly, this campaign includes some really great rewards, from digital or physical copies of the album/concert video to digital conductor scores for different pieces and all the way up to a tour of Blizzard studios and actually having creative input in a Video Games Live segment for the big spenders.

As of this writing, they've collected about 91% of their goal- $228,844 out of $250,000. Fanboys Anonymous has no connection to this project and there's no incentive for me to promote it, but it's just something I'm really excited about and would love to see happen. Since the campaign is very close to its goal with so little time left, even a $5 donation could make a real difference at this point, so if Video Games Live: Level 3 is something you'd like to see happen as well, consider donating by Friday and spreading the word and hopefully we'll all be blown away early next year!


Update: With over 24 hours left to go, the goal has been reached! If anyone who read this article donated at all, then I consider it a success. I can't wait until February!
