Halloween Scene: Housebound (2014)
As an avid listener of my favorite horror podcast Killer POV, I hear about a lot of movies that sound cool. That's where I heard about You're Next and Resolution, both of which were awesome. The only problem? It's hard to keep everything straight, especially because they're usually talking about films they've seen at festivals or screenings and it takes a while for them to show up on Netflix. Luckily for me, I remembered them talking about Gerard Johnstone's Housebound and then the movie popped up on Instant, so I gave it a watch yesterday and really enjoyed it.
Here's all I knew about the film: a troubled young woman gets sentenced to live in her mom's house for several months which may or may not be haunted. Also, it mixes in healthy doses of comedy with the scares and has a particularly Kiwi sensibility. Really, that's all you need to know. Go watch it, then read the rest of the review, because going in blind is the best way for this film.
Okay, have you seen it? I'm not looking to spoil the whole thing, but I love how this movie plays off, not just the thoughts and superstitions of the people in the story, but also my own experiences as a horror fan. Like anyone, I've seen my share of haunted house stories, so even though I don't believe in that kind of thing in the real world, I'm totally open to it happening in the world of this movie. So, that being the case, I found myself buying in to what I was presented because that's part of the game. The way that Johnstone and the actors played with those expectations and yanked me around was just fantastic.
We're in definite plot SPOILER territory with this paragraph, so consider yourself warned. I also loved how basically everyone in this movie is wrong about something. Theories are floated as if they're fact, seem plausible and then get smashed by someone coming along and telling the truth. I love when stories do that because far too after then hero knows more than they need to just to get to the end. I also really enjoyed the Eugene reveal. It's such a cool idea how he could be mistaken for something supernatural. Plus, I'm a sucker for reinvisioned gothic haunted house tropes being worked into modern stories.
Okay, no more spoilers. I really enjoyed this movie and think you should check it out immediately. Go! Now!
Jason Aaron Is Awesome
Jason Aaron's one of those comic writers whose career has interestingly intersected with my career as a writer about comics. When I first started at Wizard one of my buddies and an editor at the magazine was huge on his Vertigo series The Other Side. I didn't read that one, but I did check out the Ripclaw one-shot he did as part of Top Cow's Pilot Season not too long after that and the first few books in his Scalped series.
The first of his works that really captivated me, though was Ghost Rider. But it wasn't until my second attempt at reading it. As I've written, I love the down-and-dirty, grindhouse-y tone of that book and the wild places he took it. I assumed for a while that that was pretty much his wheelhouse, but as I've learned recently from branching out into X-Men: Schism, Wolverine & The X-Men, Amazing X-Men, Thanos Rising, Incredible Hulk, Astonishing Spider-Man & Wolverine and Thor: God Of Thunder, this guy has more tricks up his sleeve than all the magicians in Vegas.

Ambitious Summer Reading List 2015
The other day I was cleaning out the garage and came across a few boxes of unread books that I was able to combine, but only if I pulled a few out. I figured that was as good a reason as any to try my hand (and eyes) at another Ambitious Summer Reading list. There's just something about the warm weather that makes me want to stay inside and read, I guess.
As usual, I've got a pretty eclectic selection here. From the top, Ghosts And Things is a spooky anthology from 1962 that includes stories by Henry James, Ambrose Bierce and others. I'm thinking about reading these stories in between other books, but the James story was SUPER boring, so I'm not sure if I'll stick with that plan.
Below that is the 1979 Avengers novel The Man Who Stole Tomorrow by the awesome David Micheline. In the 90s I read a lot of superhero novels and am curious to see how this early example is. Then there's Freddy Krueger's Tales Of Terror #2: Fatal Games. My buddy Jesse sent me this and I'm pretty excited to read it because I love Freddy and this looks like the Christopher Pike novels I read in grade school.
You can also see Stephen King's The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger. I've heard a lot of different things about this series over the years and made sure to get the pre-revised version of this book, so we'll see how this goes. Switching gears completely, I've also got Chuck Klosterman's Fargo Rock City. I listened to the audiobook version of Klosterman's IV a few years back and picked this up not long after. I'm a sucker for music related autobios, so I'm sure this will be awesome.
I know absolutely nothing about Twilight Of The Superheroes by Deborah Eisenberg other than the fact that it was like a dollar at one of all time favorite discount stores that's no longer around. But, hey, it's about superheroes, so it should be in my wheelhouse (I hope). At the bottom of the pile you'll see another comic-related book, this one Mark Evanier's column collection Comic Books And Other Necessities Of Life. For some reason I thought this was a collection of interviews, but I must be thinking of ANOTHER book in one of my boxes. Evanier's one of the best comic historians around, so I'm sure this will be an interesting read.
That brings us to the last three books. Trevanian's The Loo Sanction is the sequel to The Eiger Sanction, a book I read last year and really enjoyed. There's also my first Raymond Chandler book Farewell, My Lovely and The Dante Club by Matthew Pearl. I must have read about that last one ten years ago and always wanted to check it out, but haven't gotten around to it until now!
As you can probably tell, there wasn't much rhyme or reason to these selections. I tried to balance out longer books with shorter ones just to take it a little easy on myself. I haven't been taking much time to read actual books lately, but I'm hoping that this will push me in that direction. I'm kicking off with The Loo Sanction because I actually started it like six months ago and want to finish it. I'm about halfway through and trying to spend more time with good books, so I'll hopefully be posting about that one soon!
Dwayne Johnson Is Awesome Part 1 (of Infinity)
As you can tell, I haven't been blogging much lately. My days are filled with work, kids and house stuff, so I don't have as much time to sit back down behind the computer and write out my thoughts on important things like movies and comics, but I've been lucky enough to see and read a lot of cool stuff lately and want to remember that.
So, let's start with the trio of Dwayne Johnson movies I've seen recently. A few weeks back, unbeknownst to us we had a free trial of HBO. For a night, I thought we'd had the thing since we moved in six months ago and I'd just missed it, but the disappearance of the channels the next day revealed the truth. Still, I was able to take advantage and watch Justin Lin's Furious 6.
I'm actually not very up on the Fast & Furious movies. I saw the first in the theaters way back in 2001, but I preferred the previous year's Gone In 60 Seconds. Since then this series produced a few sequels that kept the motor running until it really kicked into gear in the past few installments. In a lot of ways, these movies have taken on a kind of comic book nature. The last three films have drawn from the previous ones as far as characters go and also, as Paul Scheer said on the episode of How Did This Get Made dedicated to the movie, they're basically superheroes at this point who can't die (or mostly can't die). Read more…
Dan Slott's Amazing Spider-Man Is Awesome
It might have been a few months since I wrote about how much I enjoyed Dan Slott's Amazing Spider-Man, but I've been burning through every subsequent trade and issue leading up to Superior Spider-Man with a quickness and anticipation I haven't felt in a long time. Since we're talking about nine more trades here, I'm going to talk in a few broad strokes about this excellent piece of longform comic book storytelling.
As I wrote last time, I was emotionally blown away by what Slott did with ASM #655. He didn't stop there. In fact, he got me again not much later when Spidey joined the Fantastic Four after Johnny Storm seemingly died. It's been a while since I read those FF issues, but I was really moved by how Spidey honored his good friend and also worked with these new teammates.
In fact, Spider-Man's team interactions are a real high point for me in these books. He's a great superhero on his own, but he's even better as part of the FF and the Avengers. Some solo books do their best to avoid the idea of calling in the teammates, but Slott has Spidey utilize them in ways that make sense and feel organic (they are all in NYC at the same time, after all).
I also love how complex, yet surprisingly easy to understand the villains are. These are characters older than your parents and yet Slott makes them feel fresh, new and yet filled with just the right amount of history (instead of info dump/continuity overload territory). He makes you love and hate characters like Lizard, Morbius and even Doc Ock in ways that make them real.
And then Slott goes and does the unthinkable, he made me love a story about everyone in New York getting Spidey powers. When I heard about this mini event, I kept thinking of things like JLApe, but it turned out to be an incredibly compelling crossover that felt big enough and important enough to keep me interested. Unfortunately, I can't say the same thing about the "Ends of The Earth" story which finds Doc Ock threatening every living thing on earth as he gets closer to his deathbed. This was by no means a bad story — in fact, seeing Spidey, Black Widow and Silver Sable try to save the world is pretty rad — but I think I have had my fill of Big Two "the world might end" stories. Slott does a great job of getting me interested, mainly from the villain side, but the more of these stories you read the harder it can be to suspend your disbelief. Of all the books in this series, this one took me the longest to read.
And then BAM, I was right back into it with the amazing Lizard story which also circles back around to Morbius. It just so happens that I read and wrote about Morbius' first appearance for Marvel.com last Halloween, so I knew the background on this particularly strange relationship. This added some depth to what I was reading and also gave me the slightest insight into how much fun this book must be for longtime, diehard Spidey fans.
Speaking of the fans, I'm sure they were pretty distraught when they read what happens to Peter Parker at the end of ASM #700. As someone who covers comics, I knew about the big reveal (which I won't spoil here, but will in the next paragraph) so reading this whole run was kind of like watching Usual Suspects for the second time. I knew where it was going (to some extent) and could keep an eye out for the seeds Slott planted throughout.
Okay, SPOILER time. How amazing were those last few issues where Peter is just desperately trying to save himself, not because of ego, but because he's worried that Doc Ock (now inhabiting Spidey's body) will surely do some evil stuff with it? The way Slott figured out how to keep that from happening was great. I didn't know about that specific bit, so it was a wonderful surprise that makes me incredibly excited about diving into Superior Spider-Man which is not something I thought I'd say after enjoying a character for over 50 issues and losing him.
I can easily say after reading this run on Amazing Spider-Man that it is one of my all-time favorite runs of comics and that Slott is a ridiculous talent when it comes to crafting these kinds of stories. Now on to the next nine-or-so trades!
Toy Commercial Tuesday: Spider-Man Spider Force
Oooh, I stumbled upon a doozey this week! Even though I was a die-hard fan of 80s toys and cartoons growing up, most of them were gone by the time I started getting an allowance or going to the toy store with my grandma. Luckily, by then (the mid 90s) a whole slew of comic-based cartoons were hitting the airwaves as their toy counterparts appeared in stores. I was already into comics by then and loved watching superhero adventures, even if they were based on Marvel books (I was a DC kid through and through then). So, the Spider-Man and X-Men cartoons and toys were where it was at for me. Back then you could get a figure for about $5 and if you happened to hit a sale, you could walk out with a bag of figures for what it costs to get one today.
In other words, I have a lot of Spidey toys, including some of the ones from the Spider Force line which included the Avenger Wasp, Beetle, Nazi bee villain Swarm, Tarantula and CyberSpider Spider-Man. Oh, and apparently a Spider-Mobile (or Web Car) too! This is a pretty bonkers line-up when you think about it, but a fun one nonetheless. Notice how pose-y the bodies are. That's the influence of companies like McFarlane Toys on the industry back then. I know for sure I picked up the Wasp and maybe a few others.
I haven't been blogging too much lately as regular readers can tell. I'm not sure why that is. Sure, I'm busy with a new gig, but I also don't have the same burning desire to write down my thoughts about everything I see, hear or read. But, I do still love having this page here as my little corner of the internet extolling the virtues of the things I love. It also works as a pretty handy external memory because mine is getting worse and worse and these are some stories I want to remember.
A few weeks back I realized that I've moved out of my "watching people kill or get killed" phase and wanted to move into some more emotional offerings. I'll never stop loving action and horror movies and I do feel like they are a great distraction when you're already feeling incredibly bogged down by real-life emotional matters, but once things equalize a bit, it's nice to see if the ol' heart can take on a movie meant to do more than thrill and spill blood.
So, with that feeling in mind, I went looking around the Netflix queue to see what was available and landed on The Giant Mechanical Man. I only knew about this one because I'm a big fan of Jenna Fischer from The Office and saw her tweet about it. The film about a pair of wayward souls who discover each other in Detroit also stars Chris Messina of The Wendy Project fame (another beloved show in our house), Malin Akerman and Topher Grace. Fischer's husband Lee Kirk wrote and directed the film.
The movie follows Fischer, an awkward adult who doesn't quite know what she wants to do with her life and Messina's title character who dresses up in a giant suit, paints on makeup and walks on stilts as a piece of performance art. The two eventually find each other while working at a zoo to make some scratch and develop a genuine relationship in a world seemingly filled with plastic, surface-y characters played by Akerman, Grace and Harry Crane (er, Rich Sommer).
For me, the cast comes together really well to tell this story so concerned with authenticity, Art and honesty. I also really appreciate that the movie was shot in and around Detroit. I grew up less than an hour away from the city and while it wasn't a regular destination, I have a soft spot in my heart for it, especially when it's treated as more than just a place where awful things happen. The fact that this true love grew there was a nice part of the story that just struck me. I'm glad I made this one of the first more emotional movies I watched this year.
That feeling of opening-up has also spread into my comic reading. The last time I went to the library I found a different section of trades in the sci-fi section (the other two are in YA and kids) and saw that they had Michael Cho's Shoplifter. I immediately snatched it up because I've been following Cho on Twitter for years now, love his style and had been wanting to check this book out since I saw him posting about it.
The graphic novel — a sequential story told all in one volume as opposed to the monthly comic book format everyone's familiar with — stars Corinna Park, a woman in her mid-to-late 20s working for an advertising agency. But, that's not what she wants to do with her life. She wants to be a writer. This entry level job wound up taking off, sucking her focus and making her kind of hate her life a little bit, what life there is to hate. The title refers to her not-too-often habit of stealing a magazine while buying other goods at a corner store near her house. After meeting a guy she likes, she starts thinking about making a huge change in her life, though even that doesn't quite shake out like intended.
I really enjoyed this story. The story itself is not one unlike the kind you see at the heart of a lot of indie movies like Giant Mechanical Man or The Lifeguard, the idea of not knowing what the hell you're going to do that swirls around creative types in all mediums. Cho literally adds his own style to it by using a visual look that uses black, white and pink (instead of gray). Pink might seem a bit one note for a lot of people, but it works as well during the day as it does at night and adds a kind of frosting quality to what Corrina's going through. This isn't real life for her, it's just the gussied up version she's living for now until she figures out the real thing she wants to do.
As a wannabe writer myself, I can't help but instantly fall for Shoplifter like I have so many stories like it in the past. I am super on board for anything else Michael Cho wants to write and draw about. His is a voice I can relate to and appreciate.

Frontline and Frontline 2012 agree to merger
Frontline and Frontline 2012 entered into an agreement and plan of merger, pursuant to which the two companies have agreed to enter into a merger transaction, with Frontline as the surviving legal entity and Frontline 2012 as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Subsequent to the merger, this subsidiary is expected to merge into the Surviving Company which will retain the Frontline Ltd. name. After the merger is completed the combined company expects to become one of the world's leading tanker companies with a total fleet of approximately 90 vessels, consisting of approximately 25 VLCCs, 17 Suezmax tankers, 16 MR product tankers and 10 LR2 Aframax tankers. This includes approximately 20 vessels on time charter in or under commercial management. The combined company will also have a newbuilding program of approximately 22 vessels, which are scheduled to be delivered in the period 2015 - 2017. Shareholders in Frontline 2012 as of the time the merger is completed will receive shares in Frontline as merger consideration. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, one share in Frontline 2012 will give the holder the right to receive 2.55 shares in Frontline. The exchange ratio is based on June 30, 2015 NAV broker estimates for Frontline and Frontline 2012. Frontline is expected to issue a total of approximately 584 million shares to shareholders in Frontline 2012 following cancellation of treasury shares held by Frontline 2012 and Frontline 2012 shares held by Frontline. Completion of the merger is subject to the execution of certain definitive documents, customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The merger is also subject to approval by the shareholders of Frontline and Frontline 2012 in special general meetings expected to be held in the fourth quarter of 2015 and the merger is expected to close as soon as possible thereafter.

HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba labelled as absurd and manipulative an annual U.S. State Department report that once again designated Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism, a setback for advocates hoping for a change in Washington's Cuba policy this year.
The annual Country Reports on Terrorism issued on Wednesday continued to list Cuba, Iran, Sudan and Syria as countries that have "repeatedly provided support for acts of international terrorism." Cuba has been on the list since 1982.
The designation carries with it economic sanctions beyond those already imposed in the U.S. trade embargo of Cuba.
Cuba's Foreign Ministry "energetically rejects the manipulation of a matter as sensitive as international terrorism by turning it into an instrument of policy against Cuba and it demands that our country be definitively excluded from this spurious, unilateral and arbitrary list," the Cuban government said in a statement late on Wednesday.
Opponents of Washington's Cold War-era policy on Cuba had hoped it would drop Cuba from the list this year in a sign U.S. President Barack Obama might want to normalise relations with the communist-ruled island 90 miles (145 km) from Florida.
"Many of the reasons for keeping Cuba on the list are no longer valid," said Alana Tummino, director of policy at the Americas Society/Council of the Americas in New York, which is critical of U.S. policy towards Cuba.
"Sadly, unless the State Department has more evidence than it's providing, it appears that political motivations have once again driven this determination." Cuba remains on the list "because it fails to meet the statutory criteria for being removed," said Mauricio Claver-Carone, director of the U.S.-Cuba Democracy PAC, the most powerful Cuban exile lobby group in Washington, who said Cuba continued to support terrorist groups and harbour fugitives from U.S. courts.
The case against Cuba has been based largely on its past support for the armed Basque separatist group ETA, which declared a unilateral ceasefire in 2011 and says it will disarm, and for Colombia's FARC rebels, who are currently in peace talks with the Colombian government which Cuba is hosting in Havana.
The U.S. report says Cuba's ties to ETA "have become more distant" and it makes note of Cuba's role in the Colombian peace talks.
"There was no indication that the Cuban government provided weapons or paramilitary training to terrorist groups," the report said.
Cuba "continued to harbour fugitives wanted in the United States," the report said.
Cuba countered that some of those received legal political asylum, some decided to live in Cuba after completing their sentences, and that none of them were charged with terrorism.
"Even so, political considerations and the need to justify the embargo at all cost ... have won out over rationality yet again," Cuba said.

Ernie Els holds 1-stroke lead at BMW
Updated: June 21, 2013, 3:08 PM ETAssociated Press
MUNICH -- Ernie Els shot a 3-under 69 in the second round of the BMW International Open on Friday to maintain his one-stroke lead.
The South African made six birdies, a double bogey and a bogey, leaving him at 12-under 132 halfway through the European Tour event. Els, a two-time winner of the British Open and U.S. Open, opened with a 63 Thursday.
"There's so much golf to be played. If you fall out of the lead, if you're not leading after three rounds, it doesn't really mean much ...

MAN OF STEEL - Grading & Discussion

Re: MAN OF STEEL - Grading & Discussion
I wasn't crazy about Cain's costume, but it did look like his mom made it. To me, Cain always looked more like Captain Marvel than Superman. But in that show, the focus was as the title said: Lois & Clark. His Clark Kent was good. Confident, capable. Like George Reeves, but younger and more fit.
Christopher Reeve's look embodied the vision of Superman I always had in my head. His Clark seemed a little too bumbling to me, but in those scenes where he took off the glasses and changed his posture from Clark to Superman it was impressive.
Brandon Routh's Clark was an almost perfect duplication of Reeve's Clark. I think he looked a little too young to be the same person, but you have to use your imagination. The suit bothers me a lot. I think in trying to update it they went too far.
So I fixed it.
I brightened the colors, loosened the neckline, and changed the "S" to what we were used to seeing. Oh, and I moved the part in his hair to his left side, to be more like Reeve's Superman.

Ranger 1 was a prototype spacecraft launched as part of the Ranger program of unmanned space missions. Its primary mission was to test the performance of those functions and parts necessary for carrying out subsequent lunar and planetary missions; a secondary objective was to study the nature of particles and fields in the space environment. Due to a launch failure, the spacecraft could only reach low Earth orbit, rather than the high Earth orbit that had been planned, and was only able to complete part of its mission.[1]
Spacecraft design[edit]
The spacecraft was of the Ranger Block 1 design and consisted of a hexagonal base 1.5-meter (4 ft 11 in) across upon which was mounted a cone-shaped 4 m high tower of aluminum struts and braces. Two solar panel wings measuring 5.2 metres (17 ft) from tip to tip extended from the base. A high-gain directional dish antenna was attached to the bottom of the base. Spacecraft experiments and other equipment were mounted on the base and tower. Instruments aboard the spacecraft included a Lyman-alpha telescope, a rubidium-vapor magnetometer, electrostatic analyzers, medium-energy range particle detectors, two triple coincidence telescopes, a cosmic-ray integrating ionization chamber, cosmic dust detectors, and solar X-ray scintillation counters.[1]
The communications system included the high gain antenna and an omni-directional medium gain antenna and two transmitters, one at 960.1 MHz with 0.25 watts power output and the other at 960.05 MHz with 3 watts power output. Power was to be furnished by 8680 solar cells on the two panels, a 57-kilogram (126 lb) silver-zinc battery, and smaller batteries on some of the experiments. Attitude control was provided by a solid-state timing controller, Sun and Earth sensors, and pitch and roll jets. The temperature was controlled passively by gold plating, white paint, and polished aluminum surfaces.[1]
The Ranger 1 spacecraft was designed to go into an Earth parking orbit and then move into a 60,000-by-1,100,000-kilometre (37,000 by 684,000 mi) Earth orbit. The purpose was to test systems and strategies for future lunar missions.[1]
Launch delays[edit]
- Delay of the 1st countdown
- July 26: Trajectory information required by the Range Safety Officer was delayed.
- July 27: A guidance system malfunction in the Atlas booster.
- July 28: Engineers found that the guidance program to be fed into the Cape computer contained an error.
- 1st countdown. July 29.
- 83 minutes before launch: Power interruptions occurred, requiring momentary holds to permit all stations to check and recover.
- 28 minutes before launch: Commercial electrical power failed. Inadequate allowance had been made for changes in cable sag caused by variations in temperature on the new power poles recently installed at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
- 2nd countdown. July 30. Engineers discovered a leak in Ranger's attitude control gas system.
- 3rd countdown. July 31. A valve malfunctioned in the liquid-oxygen tank on the Atlas booster.
- 4th countdown. August 1. Ground controllers turned on a spacecraft command applying high voltage to the scientific experiments for calibration purposes. Immediately all stations reported a major spacecraft failure. An electrical malfunction had triggered multiple commands from the central clock timer, and Ranger 1 "turned on" as it had been programmed to do in orbit. The explosive squibs fired, solar panels extended inside the shroud, and all the experiments commenced to operate. Project engineers disengaged Ranger 1 from the Agena and hastily returned it to Hangar AE. Meantime, the launch was rescheduled for August 22, the next available opportunity. Subsequent tests and investigations determined the activating mechanism to have been a voltage discharge to the spacecraft frame; although engineers suspected one or two of the scientific instruments, they could not determine the precise source of the discharge with certainty. In the days that followed, they replaced and requalified the damaged parts and modified the circuitry to prevent a recurrence of this kind of failure.[2]
Ranger 1 was launched on August 23, 1961 atop an Atlas-Agena rocket. The first stage operated successfully, and the Agena B made its first burn to inject the satellite into a parking orbit; however the Agena's engine subsequently failed to restart to raise the satellite into the planned higher orbit, and Ranger 1 instead separated into low Earth orbit and began tumbling. The satellite re-entered Earth's atmosphere on August 30, 1961. While the spacecraft was still able to accomplish some flight testing objectives, little scientific data was returned.[1]

Official opening of St George's Park sees those involved in England's national football centre deliver their verdicts

With St George's Park to be officially opened by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge a number of leading figures involved in the project have been having their say on what is a momentous day for English football.
FA chairman David Bernstein: "It's a fantastic day for football and for the FA. This has been 20 years in development with false starts and so on. A huge amount of work has gone into this.
"I'm extremely excited. We're expecting a huge amount out of this. It's probably first and foremost about developing coaches. We have good coaches in this country but we need many more."
Sir Trevor Brooking: "Almost universally everyone has been pleasantly shocked at the quality of the facilities. I think we've got the facility right and it gives us a great chance now.
"We've got to bring it to life with the quality of the coaches and raise that level of English players in the Premier League. At the moment it's 35 per cent and we'd like to raise it to 45, 55, 65 per cent. The depth of choice then for the England senior coach would be much greater. That's a challenge for us all."
FA General Secretary Alex Horne: "We're building it for the future. This is a big investment, a lot of people have helped us with it. The facilities are first-class, world-class, and they're all very local. The first impressions are very positive.
"What we're trying to do around the England teams is gel a club. This is their home. The senior team play at Wembley but this is where they'll train, as often as they can. We're building a real club ethic here around England and re-instilling pride and passion in playing for the badge."
England coach Gary Neville: "This facility is the best I've seen and believe me I wouldn't say that if it wasn't. I've been fortunate to visit some great footballing facilities over the past 25 years but this is absolutely incredible.
"Ultimately it's about the coaches because the information that is passed to children between six and 12 is the most important period. The long-term solution to that will be better English football players and more English players. It's a problem that everybody sees; the decreasing numbers of English footballers in the league is something that nobody is happy about."
"How do we prepare players better mentally and psychologically, how do we instil the discipline in players so that they take more personal ownership of their own career development. How do we train players to have that extra bit of puff to make that last attacking run that scores the winning goal, or the last-ditch tackle that saves one?"
Football Association president The Duke of Cambridge: "Coming here and seeing these wonderful facilities gives the same feeling as when I first went to the Olympic Park. It gives me great pride we have created in this country facilities that are beyond compare anywhere else.
"St George's Park is a concept totally new. It will provide more than just world class facilities for our national team and more than a university from which hundreds of coaches will graduate. It will provide employment and a social hub for local people and will foster community spirit and purpose and hope throughout England."
