Down with a Sickness...

I hate being sick.   Especially when it lasts for multiple days. I thought it was just a common cold or something that would get out of my system by now, but it has now been with me for the last five days. And my temperature is slowly going up by the day.   Thankfully, I've been off from my job for the last few days too, which has helped me to get some much needed rest. And I'm going to go see my doctor tomorrow to get on some medication for this. (I did go see someone at a Minute Clinic on Sat

Thoughts on Thor: Ragnarok Teaser

Me: 'I've saw Kong, Beauty and the Beast, and Power Rangers a couple weeks ago. I really would like to post something about at least one of them today...'   Marvel Studios: Here's a teaser for Thor: Ragnarok!   Me: Those movies can wait.     As for what I think of the trailer, it looks great IMO. They picked a great song to go with it. Plus, it has a Guardians of the Galaxy feel going for it, which makes it even better. November can't get here soon enough.

Batman's True Enemy.

So I watched a short video yesterday that revealed who was Batman's ultimate enemy. It was made for comedy's sake, to kind of put a twist on Batman's fight against crime and not to be taken seriously. But I thought it had a neat concept. It had The Joker, Two-Face, Mr. Freeze, The Penguin, and The Riddle all meeting with this person, who turned out to be Alfred, Bruce's butler.   Alfred then explained that Bruce was never able to cope with the death of his parents. But instead to dealing with hi

Thoughts on Independence Day, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, and Beauty and the Beast Trailers

So over the last few days, new trailers for Independence Day: Resurgence, Star Trek: Beyond, Ghostbusters, and Beauty and Beast have been revealed to the public. It's been awhile since I've talked about new movie trailers, so I thought this would be a good time to fix that. The following is my thoughts on these trailers.   Note: The only trailer I have a link to is Beauty and the Beast. The others have either language which prevented me from linking to them here or I wasn't sure if I wanted to l

A Sixteenth Random Question

It's been a long time since I've asked one of these, so I thinks its time to finally ask another random question.   If you could pick one real-life place to live on earth, whether it be a city, town, or an other place, where would it be?

Thoughts on Pokemon Go

Over the last few weeks, Pokemon Go has basically taken over whatever country it has been released in. There have been numerous stories that have been caused by the game. Everything from people snooping behind police stations to people falling off 100 foot cliffs to people even finding dead bodies! And those aren't even the craziest stories people have from playing this game.   I started playing the game last week, around the time I went to Las Vegas. I had a lot of time to play the game at nigh

Sharks Found in a Volcano

The following video is about a year old, but I only found it on Facebook the other day. Regardless, it's really cool. It shows scientists founding sharks living in an active volcano.     It's a great find IMO.

Should We Have a Lego Video Game Sub-Forum?

BZP Member Lucina started a poll topic asking people if BZP should have a Lego Video Game Sub-Forum. The poll has gotten a little more than 20 votes as of this entry, but I thought I'd still promote the topic with this blog entry in case anyone was unaware of it and would like to cast a vote in it. Here is a link to that topic.

December is Here....

....Which means that the Christmas Season can now officially begin IMO.   And what better way for me to start celebrating this holiday season than to share one of my favorite Christmas songs.     I think I may have asked this before, but I'll ask it again anyways. What is your favorite Christmas song?

Temporary Inactivity Incoming...

I don't know if I'll have a chance to post this after tonight, so I'll go ahead and do it now.   After this coming Thursday, you probably won't be seeing me very much on the site. This is because of Spring Break, which is the busiest time of the year where I work. This will be the fifth year where I've endured a Spring Break at my job, and its because of these previous Spring Breaks that I'll only have time to work, eat, and get what sleep that I can during this time ahead.   Just to give you in

New Metroid: Samus Returns Trailer

I was debating on watching this, as I don't want to learn too much about this game before it is released. But I couldn't help myself.   It's great that we're finally getting another 2D Metroid game. It's also great to see the Gravity Suit back. (I still think it should've been in Other M.) The Aeon Powers look like an interesting addition to the game as well. I can't wait to see how they are used in the game.   My one nitpick about this is that they're are some content locked behind Amiibos. Y

Quick Thoughts on Movies I've seen this summer

Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been posting my thoughts on movies that have been coming out this summer. (Or you have not noticed. I don't know. ) This is because it's been a really rough summer for me at my job. Summers have always been rough at my job, but this year has been extremely tough, especially this month.   But I still wanted to at least mention some of the movies I've seen this past summer. So I'm going to just mention which movies I've seen and give some quick thoughts

Quick Thoughts on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

It's been awhile since I've done one of these.   Anyways, I enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. A lot of the jokes were really funny, the action scenes were great, and the movie itself just looked beautiful. It also had a really good soundtrack. It's not as memorable as the first movie's, but it's still good.   Everyone in the movie gets a moment to shine, from Peter to Rocket to Baby Groot. Yondu is probably the one who gets the most character development, though everyone from the first mo

My thoughts on the Fantastic Four

The following is my thoughts on the 2015 Fantastic Four movie, which do have spoilers from the movie. So if you plan to see it for some reason, don't read this until you do. (Unless you don't care, then by all means read it. )

Playing Majora's Mask Again

I got the sudden urge to start playing The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask again last night. I stopped playing it a while ago when I thought I did something wrong in the second dungeon that stopped my progress in the game, and then never got back to it because I would play Pokemon Y or Smash Bros. instead. But I decided to play the game again, because even though I haven't personally played through the game, I do know its story and I like it a lot. And what do you know, I got pass the point that

40 Years of Star Wars

So today is the 40th anniversary of Star Wars. It was on this day, back in 1977, that the first Star Wars film came out, giving the world one of the best sci-fi movies ever made.   And since then, we've gotten seven more Star Wars film with more on the way, comics, books, video games, multiple TV shows, and tons of merchandise. (Many of it being Lego sets. ) While the quality of these things depends on the person, there's no argument that Star Wars holds a special place in many people's hearts

Thoughts on Independence Day: Resurgence

I saw this movie last week, but I haven't had a chance to post my thoughts on it until now. I'm putting them in spoiler tags, so I don't spoil anything for those who haven't seen it yet and want to. So don't read any further if you don't want to be spoiled.

Well, that was easy...

So I'm playing the after game of Pokemon Y, and I go to catch Mewtwo, arguably one of the most powerful Pokemon ever. I managed to get its health in the red and paralyze it, so I decide to start trying to catch it. I had 40 Ultra Balls in my bag, all ready to be sacrificed to try to do this. But I also had three regular Pokeballs as well, left overs from my early days on my journey. So just to be funny, I decide to throw one of them instead of an Ultra Ball, just to see what would happen.   I ca

How NOT to put out a Fire

So I heard this story on the radio earlier today. A few days ago, a guy was burning garbage in a field when the fire began to grow out of his control. He decided that the best way to put it out was to run it over repeatedly with his van. Not the best idea, but it gets even worse.   As he notices that the tires on his van were on fire, he remembers a very crucial detail that he apparently forgot about his van. Not only did it have a full tank of gas, the van also had firearm ammunition in it. Rea

Temporary Inactivity is Over

And oh, does it feel good to be back!   After working 14 to 16 hours shifts for the last 13 days, I've finally back to my regularly scheduled shifts at work. Which means I have time to be on BZP again!   It was a rough 13 days of work. I ended up working almost 177 hours between those days, so I'm very thankful that I have today off. Now I just have to catch up on all the TV episodes and Youtube videos I've missed. (And finally catch Groudon in Omega Ruby)

Quick Thoughts on Black Panther Teaser Trailer 1

When I learned that this trailer was being revealed last night, I was a little surprised. I thought that we wouldn't see anything on Black Panther until at least after Spider-Man: Homecoming was out in theaters. But I'm not complaining, because this trailer is great.   I like how it continues to trend in recent Marvel movies of showing just enough to get you interested in the movie but not give the majority of the plot away. (Though Spider-Man is an exception to that. ) It's a trend that I hope
