We just finished getting up a new look for the site. Let us know what you think in the comments!

This week’s episode of Pressed & Bound has to take a sabbatical due to a freakish illness. I’ve been pretending for the passed few days that I’ve had the Swine Flu, but since my guts haven’t exited my body in a very gooey way, I think I simply have an upper respiratory thing. But at the end of the day, this all means that we can’t do a show this week. As much as I’d like to infect Joe with a head-cold, I figure it’d be best to not do that. So look for us next week, when hopefully I’ll be back on my feet.

Well, it’s been over a month.  I guess I should update.

Let’s talk about a wicked kung fu movie, shall we?  I’ve done a few reviews here that feature the legendary Wong Fei Hung, but it’s time for a slightly more recent bad ass to take the stage.  This post’s movie is Ip Man, a biopic about Yip Man (just an alternate Anglicization), the great 20th century Wing Chun master.  There is honor.  There is sadness.  It’s kung fu during World War II.  What more could you want?

It may just be my browser, but when I got to Amazon, I’m asked to board the hypetrain for a trip to Brownville. It turns out that here in a couple of weeks the author of The Da Vinci Code will be releasing his next Robert Langdon novel, The Lost Symbol. According to Amazon, this will be an event of EPIC PROPORTIONS.

Sounds of Amazon pushing old money aside while eagerly awaiting the sales of this book after the break.
