Zootopia

Just saw Zootopia today. Good movie. 6/6 Spirit Stars. Would recommend.   I thought it was a pretty good sequel to Disney's Robin Hood, even if it makes no references to the original characters. I guess that can be forgiven since the movie takes place 800 years in the future. (Okay, it's not really a sequel, but there are a lot of similarities: the mayor's a lion, the heroes are a fox and a rabbit? It totally fits!)   But yeah, there were so many Easter Eggs in that movie, it might be worth gett

YouTube Rant

So I’m a productive adult. I’ve got a job and friends and things are pretty good when you average everything out. I’m entitled to a little mindless television every now and then. But, as a major cheapskate millennial and someone who hates media commitments because of how seriously he takes them, I don’t have TV so I just bum around watching cruddy YouTube videos in my recommended videos feed to opiate my brain from a long day of thinking and worry.   And here’s what grinds my gears, what get

Xi

Has anyone else beaten Xi on Playstation Home yet (or even heard about it, for that matter )? I did this morning and managed to secure myself three shiny trophies.   But I will admit it, I had copious amounts of help from online walkthroughs.

Writing

Hey, I just entered The Legend Continues contest. The prizes sounded pretty good, and I felt that the Skull Slicer kind of got a raw deal only showing up in 2 web animations and getting like a sentence of lore. He was this arena champion who inexplicably had 4 arms. So many questions...   Also, I've been off and on writing another movie spoof. I'll finish it someday...

Wireless Success

Well, it took some fiddling about, but I've finally managed to get my Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector working again, which means that now I can start playing Nintendo DS games against people over the Internet once more. If you have any of the games listed in the content block marked Gaming Info, drop me a PM and hopefully we'll be able to face each other. I'm particularly keen on getting a game of Civilization Revolution going to see if beating the computer on Deity level is actually something to

Winter 2010 Adventures

This last couple of weeks has been quite the whirlwind for me. Millions of things due in school, not to mention Reading Week, so here's what I've been up to lately.   Just before reading week, my professors decided to make everything due at once. Wasn't that nice of them? After finally stressing and fighting my way through a seemingly endless pile of assignments, it was suddenly Reading Week, but it was no time for relaxing.   No sir, no relaxing at all. Some people from my church and I wo

Which Pokémon Version?

So here's something I've wondered for the past decade. Do people pick the same sort of games in a Pokémon version pair? E.g. Does everyone who picks Red Version always pick Gold Version? I'm not asking if you have the games, I just want to know which you'd pick given the choice between them.   Red or Blue? Gold or Silver? Ruby or Sapphire? Diamond or Pearl? Black or White?   Oddly enough, I always pick the first one in the pair (Red, Gold, Ruby, Diamond, Black) for no discernible reason

What's So Great About Avatar?

I hope that got your attention.   I saw the movie about a month ago and I have a fairly neutral opinion of it. Sure there was a lot of impressive CGI and stuff, but for some reason I'm not seeing how it became the number one selling movie of all time or why I keep hearing about people desperately wishing to go to Pandora.   I can pretty much trace this back to the sense of nausea the 3D effects of the movie induced in me, so as impartially as you can, I'd appreciate hearing what exactly it is

What Should I Ask For?

What should I ask for for my birthday this year? I'm thinking maybe something like video games (preferably nothing with insane amounts of gore), but I'm open to suggestions.

What Powers Should Tahu Have?

So, as most of you probably don't know, when Tahu killed all the Rahkshi in the last comic with the golden armour, he actually gained their powers. Now, according to Greg, not every type of Rahkshi would have been sent on the invasion of Bara Magna so he probably doesn't have all 42 powers, but if you were in charge of the storyline, which powers would you give Tahu, which ones would you not give him, and why? (For your convenience, here's my Flash Kraata Maker).   So here's what I think:

What Is This I Don't Even

So I was procrastinating today.   "Whoa, SPIRIT was procrastinating? Stop the presses!"     So I decided to see what this whole Twitter craze was about and went to check out the site. On the main page, they've got like this search bar, so I thought to myself, hey, why don't I see if people are tweeting about BIONICLE?   So I search for some random BIONICLE words and while I'm sifting through the results when I come upon a series of... just weird tweets. I don't know if this is a prank or

What I Did On My Christmas Vacation

Well, after the 25th, I pretty much dropped off the face of the map as I celebrated Christmas and took an extended break from BZP. As I understand, there were subsequent riots in the street due to this absence, but fear not citizens -- I am back!   So here's what I've been up to lately...   Being the careful planner that I am, I went Christmas shopping on the 23rd. The mall was packed and selection was limited, but I somehow managed to get exactly what I was looking for. I got in a lot of d

What Have I Been Up To?

It's been nearly a month since my last blog update and I'd like to say that it was because I was busy, but quite frankly, I'm just lazy.   Since I last updated, I was promoted to Reference Keeper, finished that sound project that I had been promising you, ripped off an idea from Exo, filmed my first staff set review, and wrote a new chapter for Wildfire (which no one has reviewed yet ). From there, I finished the script for my next PSA (a script that I started writing back around AC#12 and ne

Wet Wednesday

Today was the fateful day that I went to school to receive both the results of my report card and the results of the grade 10 literacy test. All in all, I did very well, I passed the literacy test (obviously) and got over 86% on my report card. The problem, however, was the quest to obtain these documents.   On the way there, it was sort of warm outside, a bit too warm for jeans, but I wore them anyway. When I finally got to the bus stop, I was pretty hot, sweating and whatnot. The bus came

Were You Listening?

"Were you listening to me Harry, or were you looking at the woman in the red dress?" A mash-up of this scene from The Matrix and this scene from Deathly Hallows will occur -- I guarantee it.

Weevil Woes

This morning, after finishing a box cereal and munching down on it, I noticed something odd in my bowl. I scooped it out with my spoon and looked at it closely. I then saw that it was a...   WEEVIL!!!   That's right, as small brown beetle was in my cereal. Now it was dead, so it wasn't that gross but the scary thing is that it looked just like a broken off piece of raisin. I immediately taped it to a piece of paper and e-mailed the company in complaint. I'll keep you updated on their

Weevil Story Concluded

Well, it's nearly 20 days since I got the weevil in my cereal and today I noticed an interesting e-mail from Kellogg Canada. They apologised greatly for the incident, thanked me for telling them their cereal was "unsatisfactory" (), and are going to send me reimbursement coupons in the mail. Whether or not I'm going to chance the cereal again once I get the coupons is debatable.   Now that they've appologised, though, I feel sorta bad about spazzing out on them. I mean, when I wrote the e-m

Voting By Mail

So as I am still in France and Canada's got a federal election coming up, I got a mail-in ballot sent to my apartment. Turns out that to send it in, I put my ballot in an envelope, in an envelope, in an envelope. It's like Inception by mail!
