The Queue

This title is factually accurate.

Thanks again for helping me with my question last week! Now let’s move on to your question!

There’s three movie trilogies I watch every year: The Godfather, Hobbit + Lord of the Rings, and The Matrix. I’m saying this because you all need to do the same; three movies that are just some of the best ever made.

Okay. There’s a dinosaur in the header image. Am I doing this right? Have I convinced you all that I’m Matthew Rossi?

Well the joke’s on you, because I’m definitely not Matthew Rossi (and I don’t know nearly enough about Warriors to fake it). And since I don’t think I can keep up the illusion for an entire Queue, so I’m going to stop trying. But I’ll do my best to answer your questions anyway. Here we go!

Guys, E3 is pretty legit crazy. I got to meet up with our very own gone but certainly not forgotten Fox Van Allen, wander the halls, take in the scenery, not get eaten by wayward dragons, and play some video games. I think I still prefer BlizzCon though — E3 is a convention, but BlizzCon always feels like the biggest family reunion ever. Oh, and I’d also like to thank Alex for covering for me last week while I was away. Let’s get on to your questions!

Ugh, Mitch is the worst, always raising the bar on the Queue with his whole “I’m so impressive that I can answer ten Queue questions every day” thing.

Because, really, there are only so many hours in the day, and when I spend 15 minutes going through comments to find one question about Transformers (i.e. what I was doing up until I gave up and started writing this introduction), well… making enough time to question-hunt is tough. FeyMercurial suggests I should lower the bar on questions and “do some some limbo dancing,” but I’m not so sure.

But fine. Let’s give it a try and see how I do. But I’m still not answering questions about Transformers. Or tentacles. (These comments can be a real minefield, I’m telling you.)

Happy Tombsday, everyone!

You know what instantly endears me to a show or movie? An original score that blows me away. Such is the case with The Leftovers, which recently ended its run after three incredible seasons and is, frankly, underrated. It managed to reinvent itself every season while still feeling like the same show. I can see how the show isn’t for everyone, but personally, it’s one that I will forever consider influential on how I write.

What’s your underrated/inspirational show/movie/book? Give it a thought, and maybe read some questions while ya do.

The last question in today’s Queue got me going down memory lane… It was kind of dangerous. I’m now thinking of popping over to the server and saying hello to a few folks.

My wife and I got engaged during a Molten Core run. This weekend we’re celebrating our 11th year married with a trip to the mountains in Jasper. We will be spending time in a cabin, going for nature walks, and perhaps I may commune with my Sasquatch kin.

Hopefully y’all will have a good weekend in my absence.

This is the Queue. Let’s chat.

Anne isn’t here, so I am. Sup? Let me dust off this ol’ copy/paste real quick…

Seriously, I’m not saying my Night Elf Warrior is in love with Jarod Shadowsong.

I don’t have to because look at the two of them. I don’t think she could be more obvious if she said “Hiiiiii, Jaaaaarod” every time she saw him. Which she probably does.

Anyway, this is the Queue. I had a pretty hectic week launching the new book. Played some D3, spent some time failing to log into WoW today. What’ve y’all been up to?
