The Children of Hurin

Posted on March 26, 2007 by Administrator Barnhard Blog

tolkienThe Children of Húrin (2007) is a forthcoming completion of a tale by J. R. R. Tolkien. Begun in 1918 and revised several times, the tale was never completed by Tolkien before his death. Tolkien’s son, Christopher Tolkien, has now completed the tale for publication for the first time as an independent work [wikipedia]
 
 
According to the independent the book is coming out this 17th April worldwide. Likely a hit, but more interestingly where does 30 years of Tolkien notes translation & reworking result in.

      Homer VS Kan Cho Man! (The Fist Master)

      Homer Simpson takes on The Fist Master… and I’m not talking about Akuma.

      It’s a shame that Homer’s animation doesn’t quite work well with Kan Cho’s ‘attacks’ but it’s still funny. Funny and disturbing. There are two fights: both on Matrimelee stages. Scroll down for the lyrics (from Kazuya_UK’s translation guide).
