    I can't be the only one here who fails to see what a woman being upset over not being able to have kids, has any relation to feminism what so ever. Some people want kids, some people don't. If the writer of the film says the character wanted kids, THE CHARACTER WANTED ###### KIDS!

    I'm excited for the sets and story, don't get me wrong. But one think I just can't wait for is when new members come to this site, who are a generation who never grew up with Bionicle, and see them experience it for the first time. Seeing it through their eyes will take me back to when I first got into Bionicle when I was 7. It's been ove 10 years now so a lot of that magic has faded into something else. I just want to see kids get involved is something the way we all did when we were there age. Gonna make the experience for me so much more nostalgic.

    Yesterday I wrote a blog entry about what Bionicle did for me. I finished it, looked at it and deleted everything. It was just over emotional and cliche garbage. So I scrapped it.
     
    Then, earlier today, I watched the Bohrok Animations for the first time(Yes I know, tie me to a cross and burn the blasphemous). But while watching it I realised. Screw what Bionicle did for me. What about what Templar Studios did for Bionicle?
     
    They made the characters of Bionicle not just boring robotic heroes, but actually beings that had compassion just like people. My favorite scene in the whole of any MNOG product was the Po-Koro scene in the Bohrok animations. So much is happening with the characters in such a short space of time and its gread.
     
    First of we have a bit of humour when Hafu realises he has to break down his statues. I want to point out MNOG humour is just the best. But that humour soon vanishes as we actually see Hafu breaking down his sculptures in order to same Po-Koro leaving him trapped on the outside. Then we cut to Hewkii screaming about Hafu. So we see, just by that these two have a strong friendship. I think I love the fact that Hafu knows hes going to die in this scene and he is willing to sacrifice himself(and his pride and joy) to save his home and the Matoran inside. If thats not Bad*** I dont know what it. But then Pohatu saves the day by getting Hafu back into Po-Koro with the help of Hewkii. Then the two Matoran hug each other which is actually really touching.
     
    I know it may sound a little far fetched but Im not sot sure if the Bionicle story would be what it was if not for MNOG. I actually think they single-handedly set the tone of Bionicle with providing a template for the atmosphere. It also made us aware that these were characters on not just toys

    Dont know if Im going to stick with the name... not very catchy. This is all I have done so far (its only the first page). I hope it looks slightly reminiscent of the first comic issue of BIONICLE as that's what I was going for. Let me know if you cant read the text. I was having troubles with that. Also let me know if you have a hard time understanding what is going on. Making sure people can follow is something I really want to do in the comics.
     
    The Story
     
    Six Bionicle toys (Kopaka, Avak, Kalmah, Mutran, Macku and Whenua) are transported into the Bionicle world by an unknown force. At first, this seems like a dream come true for the team has dreamed of nothing more that becoming real Bionicles, and known has dreamed this dream as much as Kopaka. They soon find out that being a real Bionicle isnt all its cracked up to be. In the midst of a brutal war, the six are stranded are forced to take sides. But how far will they go to fit into the new world they have been thrown into?

    Hey guys. Haven't posted a blog entry in a while but I thought I should. I dont know if anyone remembers the CeeCee Avs I used to draw. Those badly drawn Bionicle Avs with a purple coloured background. They were in a thread called "Cute Bionicle Avatars" but I guess "CeeCee Avs" Caught on with some friends and now I use it. I got kind of bored drawing just the characters but I recently had the the idea of creating a comic with them in. Ive never really tried making a comic before, or even considered it before now but I was thinking something a long the lines of it starting like the first Bionicle Comic. You know... the very first one... with Kopaka and stuff? But then it just turns out they are toys re-enacting the comics becuase they wasnt so desperately to be heroes... and villains of course. Anyway, a selection of these toys get transported into the real Bionicle Universe and realise real Bionicle life isnt all it seemed cracked up to be.
     
    I dont know if this is something that would interest anyone but one of my main concerns in the humour. Now dont get me wrong, I dont find myself devoid of all things funny, in fact wuite the contrary. I just dont know how well it could be translated to a comic... but we will see.
     
    Anyway... have a nice day/night...

    Yup, yup, yup. You heard right. After a "short" hiatus of CeeCee's av's I will be bringing them back and with a twist... actually there will be no twist(I just thought it would sound cool, I apologies for my actions and misleading you), they'll be the same silly, stupid computer drawn Av's with that horrible purple-y blue back grounds.
     
    FAQ about CeeCee Av's
     

    (This "FAQ" was done in good fun and is not to be taken literally. Please know this)
     
    Yeah, they are coming back. I actually want to thank everyone though more making them as popular as they were. I dont expect anything like that this time but I will continue them regardless.
    Thanks everyone and stay tuned in you are interested.

    My account turned one today so I got the Vahi spiny. Thanks everyone for making this an awesome year at BZPower. In other news I worked a 10 hour shift today at the Warehouse I would at. Pretty tiring if I do say so myself.

    Having no vision in my right eye, I forget how much I rely on my right ear to "see" on my right hand side. Unfortunatly my right ear now has some sort of infection making my hearing temporarilly messed up in that ear. I cant tell you how odd it is being heavily compremised on that side. Other than that, not much new. might be joining the Terrotorial Army soon hopefully. That should be fun.
     
    Anyway, thanks for reading!

    This inst going to be a super long, detailed review. I just want to get one thing across here. Im a pretty big fan of Lordi and have been for some time now. After listening to their latest album, Im just not very fond of it. At first I couldn't tell what it was that was wrong, and then it hit me. Kita...
     
    And I dont mean the drums. The drums are fine. Mana and/or Otus (I don't know if Otus managed to record anything before his passing) did a superb job. It was the backing vocals. Kita had a distinct voice when it came to backing vocals and I didn't think I would miss them as much as I did.
     
    Anyway, that's all I have to say about it. Its good but not as good as the other five.

    I trust everyone has heard of Kopaka from the Bionicle story line. The icey cool dude that most people seem to love so much. Yeah... he's cool. I mean... Kopaka characters are cool. In every movie, book or whatever, we love 'em. We dream to be like Kopaka, with his cool ways and chill attitude(Yeah those are horrible puns).
     
    I mean like really cool. But, what I'm going to say, people aren't going to like. Kopakas are annoying as heck in the real world. I mean, when you think about it, it sounds really cool. Then you realise. Who is most like Kopaka that you know? Can't they be reeeeeaaaaaally annoying at times? Darn right they can. They analytically think everything, they think they are some sort of chief. And when they speak...
     
    Okay, here is another thing that doesn't work in the real world: Cool dialogue. I mean, seriously its annoying. I think the worst part is that you can tell the person thinks theyre so chief when they say it. You can practically hear the music playing in their head as they speak. I'm really empathizing with Tahu right now. If Bionicle was real, do you really think Tahu and Kopaka would have made up and ben buddies? I highly doubt it. The whole thing was just thrown in there like "Two contrasting characters who are completely different bond in the end". There is nothing wrong with that. Its heart warming, it really is. Just thought it was a good point to throw out there.
     
    I guess I'm not so much talking about Kopakas. Because the truth is Kopakas don't exist. They're an idealistic character that we either want to be or want as a friend. People arent that perfet. I think my gripe is wannabe Kopakas. Darn you Kopaka I want to be you.

    Okay, okay. I haven't been on this place too long compared to a lot of users, but I still consider myself an active BZPer. Its wierd now. Im looking back on all my blog entries that's almost a year ago and realising how much of a newbie I used to be. I had this sort of overly sweet quality to all my posts. Then again, I guess that's what I always do when going into a new place, and that's not to say Im not nice anymore, becuase I struggle to think of a time where I I have been mean on this site.
     
    Something else that I thought was really funny was looking to the people I had replied to and how I had replied to them in earlier blog entries. I met one of my closest friends(some silly orange and white matoran who thinks its funny to puit numbers on the end of canon character names and pass them off as his own) on this site on my second blog entry(which I beleive has long since been deleted) . It was some daft badly told epic that's gone through about one million re-writes. I something you can never really see coming and its strange. Its sort of like I'm talking to strangers back then, but... its just weird.
     
    I just sort of made this blog entry to encourage you to look back on your old blog entries or posts and see the people who you first interacted with and where they are now. Could be they dont even come here anymore. Maybe you hate them, maybe you love them. Its just really quite cool.

    So I had a friend. I just want to say right here, right now it is no one from this forum. Anyway, I have just found out that his opinions vary very different from mine. Im not sure if I know what to do. I mean he is a nice guy but we have very different views of some matters. I have always had very close friends that have different views than me before and I get along with them fine. We even discuss them and I get to understand them a bit more. but this guy really seems to beleive this stuff really strongly. I need some advice. What would you do in a situation like this?

    My Mum says Im really good. Just look at some of these hot skills Ive used
     

     
    Give it up for Demon Jaller staring into your soul!
     
    And yeah, it took me 5 seconds. I hope it makes you laugh and cry as much as It made me.

    Hi. My name is Sam. This is the first time Ive ever done a random ramblings, but what else is a blog for so lets get to it.
     
    The Avatar thing is going pretty well. I never expected it to get so big and Im really happy. I just want to thank every one that is wearing one. I wondered also, does any one get annoyed by it. I mean it would seem a trivial thing to get annoyed over but Ive had my fair share of them. What do you think of it. Does it anger you, make you happy? I want to hear you thoughts.
     
    I also saw the movie "Unbreakable today" The ending came unexpectedly soon but it was still very good. Definitely worth the watch.
     
    Epics going pretty slow and there's a bunch of reviews I need to do.
     
    And on a good note, for the first time in a while, Im actually happy. Dont get me wrong, Im not one to sulk down in depression. Heck, Ive rebounded off rock bottom woth a bounce more times than I care to mention. Its just been an underlying feeling but I feel for the moment, its gone.
     
    I quit school and am starting a Appreticeship. Its sad to leave my school as I really liked it there and there are always things you had wished you'd told someone befre you left. Still, fate owes me one so.
     
    Anyway. That was cool
    Felt good to get thought out the way.
    Have a good day/night.

    Why are you so hard to draw.
     

     
    Doing this for a guy. I just need feed back as to where this looks okay or not.
     
    Here is how it would look and an Av

    Comments and criticisms needed.
    Thanks!

    So Im doing a Matutu for Nuju. I just dont know if the eyes look alive enough.
     
    If no, what could you suggest. Of you dont like something else about it, please say.
     
    Thanks for reading!

    So, dont focus on the badly drawn miru, but on the lighting. First time Ive tried this and its pretty basic, but I tried to add lighting to the mask by using different shades of green and a bit of white on the forehead. Its meant to look cartoony so thats why there are loads of black out lines. Do you guys think I pulled this off okay for a first attempt?
     

  18. CeeCee
    I think its fair to say that Im happy. The only thing I have been thinking more and more recently though is that I dont think Im happy with my life. I feel like Im going in completely the wrong direction to the things I want to do or the person I want to be.
     
    I have so many dreams that I woudnt even think telling anybody about which is pathetic. Can I have some advice off some BZPers? Im feeling kind of down.

    I know how hard it is to get people to take notice of your work, so if you need a review please PM. It can be a SS or an Epic and Ill do it. Ill try do do it as soon as I get the PM but Ill notify if I cant do it. I dont ask for a review in return or anything like that. The benefit me is that I get more experienced with writing. The best way to learn is by teaching some one how to do something. So if you need an Epic or SS reviewing then just PM me and Ill get to it.
     
    I know people may just say "why not use the ECC", and by all means, be my guest. I just want to do my bit to help writers around here so dont think of me in a negative way.
     
    DISCLAIMER: I am not trying to copy the ECC or SSCC, Im am simply just trying to help people (including my self) get better at writing. I have nothing against either organisations. I also do not consider my self and expert in writing so be warned =P
     
    EDIT: Unlike the ECC, I do not intent for people to have to make an appeal if they want their epic review again but I work at a first come, first serve basis.
