So I just got done watching this movie. Some may have heard of it, they released a trailer a month or so ago. It had a limited release back in September, I think, and was set for a wide release this spring. Regardless, if you have Comcast, you can get it for $10 On Demand (HD only). It stars Hayden Christensen, Thandie Newton, and John Leguizamo.
Anyway, I first have to applaud this flick for taking a very traditional horror movie route. Apart from a few cuts and scrapes, there is no blood or
Super Meat Boy (bought it off Steam) is a new platformer. It's great fun, has a funny concept, retro soundtrack, and WHAT I HIT THE JUMP BUTTON

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO REACH THAT?
EVERYTHING IS COVERED IN SPIKES
RRRRRGH
Why can't I stop playing?
I got around to seeing this earlier today, and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and this coming from a hardcore oldie Cameron fan (as in, Terminator, Terminator 2 and Aliens were definitely his prime stuff, not his stuff that put me to sleep like Avatar). I was always torn by Terminator 2, because I loved the plot and thought it completely blew away the first one, but the kid drove me nuts.
One of the highlights of this one, though, is for a director (M
So I got around to seeing this today (yeah, I know, FINALLY), and it was good, I liked it. But back when it first came out I saw a lot of people confused about the ending -- not so much here, cuz I don't really frequent the COT forums, but several other places. And I was just wondering... Why? I think the only way it could have been clearer is if one of the actors looked directly at the camera and said, "Okay, here's what's going on."
Also, I don't really get the one tagline, "Your mind is th

Welp, it appears that my wrist is pretty much permanently damaged, and after all the x-rays and MRIs and doctor visits, there doesn't seem to be anything anyone can do to fix it in the foreseeable future. I can guarantee that even after this short entry I'm going to be screaming in pain on the inside. So that writing thing I've been working on for years, the only thing I'm really good at and the only thing I've ever really wanted to do with my life, BAM! Gone. Taken away. Guess I'm just another
Already I want to see it again. Amazing, which is saying something considering how high my expectations were for this one (the last book is by far my favorite). I hope Part II will blow me away even more. Speaking of which, thank all that is good they decided to split it, as they would have never done the book justice if they tried to squeeze it into one film.
Picked a really good ending point, too, despite the amount of rage I'm sure will occur given how much of a cliffhanger it is.
And in the time I've been gone, I've gotten myself tangled up in some sort of love... I don't even know what shape, there's too many people involved (of both genders). :| This second half of the semester is going to get either really violent or really cinematic. Possibly both.
I realize my activity on here has already been almost non-existent. However, I might be gone altogether for a little while. I need to sort some things out, rather big things. I'm very... confused with a number of things in my life right now and I need some time to figure out where I'm headed. I'll probably be on once and a while to see what's going on, of course.
So... take care, everyone.
My dad was extremely awesome and got me Disturbed's new album, Asylum. I swear they get better and better with every album they make. I adore this CD. Highly recommend it.
So in the little free time I've had this week I managed to squeeze in finishing Firefly between classes, and just tonight I watched Serenity. I'm a Joss Whedon fan, I loved Buffy and Angel, and I had heard good things about Firefly for a while but never got around to watching it. Loved it, and was quite sad that it only lasted fourteen episodes. All of those actors, especially Nathan Fillion, should be in more and/or bigger stuff.
Serenity was also really awesome, although a lot more heart-wr
So I'm starting my first piece of fiction that I'm going to try to get published. 8D Well, I intend to start, whether or not that's gonna happen soon between the boatloads of homework is another story (ha! see what I did there?) entirely. Still, I have a basic premise and am quite excited about it.
Woot
Okay, I've had this looked at by two different doctors in two different areas, and both said it was just in my head, so I decided to ask here.
A while back I was reading a book and as I turned a page, my wrist cracked loudly. I usually pop some of my joints like my fingers and knees, but never have my wrists done that. I dunno if it was the way I turned it when I flipped the page or what. Anyway, it's a little misshapen (that groove on the side of the wrist beneath the thumb is deeper than it
Well, I'm sure you've all noticed that Demon's Tears seems to have hit a brick wall. Honestly, I haven't worked on any of my own writing since February. Yep. It's been almost seven months since I've been able to do what I really want to do with my life.
And believe me, I've wanted to. Badly. There's practically nothing I love more. And the only reason I got anything done in February is because we were snowed in for a week (a blessing in disguise). But my professors seemed to assign me essays,
DUDE. I haven't had that much fun in a theater in a long time. If you even remotely enjoyed those classic action movies like Die Hard, Terminator and T2, Rambo, etc. you HAVE to see this movie. Absolutely incredible, my only gripe is that I wish it were a little longer.
I've actually been gone since Monday, I just never got a chance to say I would be away before I left. Went to Boston. It was fun, I'll probably go into more detail later when I'm less tired and done raging at extremely dumb people on the road.

M'kay, so I have an issue. Now I don't really watch a whole lot of television, 99% of the time (now that LOST is over) if I'm watching TV, it's movies. However, there are three separate shows airing tomorrow night all at the same time that I want to see, but I don't know which one to pick:
- New episode of "Leverage"
- New show called "Rubicon" that looks pretty cool
- The first program of Shark Week, which looks like an hour of two guys filming great white sharks launching themselves into
