Being There

Now watching:

What's wrong with this picture...

What's wrong with this picture, I ask again? Gamespot seems to have caught it pretty quick and fixed it, but for a fleeting moment, a pile of dung rested at the top.

Def Leopard

I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to call this guy.

PSP Import Titles

I've been looking over the list of Japanese PSP games at liksang.com. I have to say one thing: I can't wait to play with my colon. I mean Kollon.

Grand Theftendo

Just in case you can't wait until GTA: Retirement Home comes out, this should hold you over. Some guy made a GTA game for the NES console. It still looks better than most N-Gage games.

Ring 2; more like, Ring Poo

I went into Ring Two hoping it would be more broad and far reaching. I thought it was supposed to be more about the ring "virus" and how the tape spreads across the country and something big happens to everyone who's seen it, like they all become zombies or become republicans... wait, that's being redundant. Anyways, it was real lame. Pretty much a big letdown even though I didn't have any expectations of it being good. There were a few jumpy moments but it was really lame overall. The story pretty much revolves around Naomi Watts and little malnourished dude the whole movie and didn't really deliver on the creepyness like it should have. Sure, I could write it off as being a bad movie, just because it's a sequel, but I think it's really a no brainer.

• Make the movie scarier.
• Don't treat the audience like a freaking retard
• When people die of mysterious causes, at least acknoledge that they died in the next scene (or in the movie at all for that matter)
• Enough with the researching. Every time you leave your kid somewhere alone, something bad happens anyway.
• Either lay off the special effects and stick with eerie atmosphere or make the special effects look really good and believeable
• More Cowbell

It's not totally a terrible flick. I mean there's a really good scene with deers.

(Note: Above image NOT from Ring 2. This would have made it a good movie.)

PS - I almost totally forgot the best part. There was a tense, quiet, boring scene when I was trying to hold a fart, only it was too painful. So I decided to let it "pfffft" out. Well, the first part "pfffted", but the end of it must have caught the inside of my anus and punched the rest of the air that went past in the gut, because I farted really loud and I think all 20 people in the theater heard it. Especially the 14 year olds who talked on the phone during the movie.

New Batman Poster! New Batman Poster!

A new one-sheet has been release for the upcoming batman Begins movie.

War Of The Worlds Teaser Trailer 2 is out

The other night my awesome girlfriend Carole and I watched Minority Report at the beach. There's something about watching TV at the beach that brings back fond memories of my childhood summer trips to North Myrtle, most of which were spent inside whatever timeshare or condo my mom scored from some rich dude she worked with. Needless to say, the beach is effing hot. Nobody wants to be in the sun all day long playing putt-putt or getting sand in their butt-crack or having a combination of saltwater/sand/canvas raft sanding off your nipples while your back gets lobster red and your lungs fill with salt water. The best feeling after a long venture out at the beach is sitting down with leftovers and watching TV for a few hours. It makes whatever's on a million times better.

Back to Minority Report. I hadn't seen it since it was in the theater. I remember it being a good movie, but not as good as it was the second time. I had forgotten alot of the plot so it was like seeing it for the first time again.

Enter War of the Worlds. Spielberg & Cruise back in the saddle again. It worked once, why not try it again. In all honesty, I haven't really been too interested in WotW until now. Sin City is coming out in a few weeks and Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy will be out a few weeks after that. Not to mention Episode III, which reminds me of someone's blasphemous comment "Minority Report is better than Star Wars!". Just kidding dude, we all know what you meant.

The second trailer is now available on the apple trailers site. It reminds me of Signs for a brief moment, except this has mass distruction (the first trailer just looked like a natural disaster film). The screen cap above is right near the end of the trailer and it looks like part of an alien craft (the only actual alien stuff you see in the trailer). It's just a split second so pause and advance frame by frame.
