Guillermero Del Toro directs the opening titles for this year's 'Treehouse of Horror' episode for The Simpsons and it's a nerd's delight

I lasted all of three seconds before I was squeeing over some of the references in this ('top left corner of the Springfield panorama' is all I'm saying on the matter!) but others are just sublime - Chief Wiggum and Mr Burns especially.

If you're not quite sure you saw what you think you saw... let Empire give you a hand

In other news - the first cold of the year is early. I'd normally expect it in about a week's time but no... it's here now. Bah. I have things to do! Students to teach! Films to watch! Rangers to get laid!... so yeah - same stuff, different year!
