bounty

Aw man, i knew the minute they wanted to meet a fan, it was all just a ruse to kill someone in the name of art.

Go watch the video here:

Unless there's something i'm missing, it's only going to up for the next four hours or so.




i was never sure if this image was legit or not, but be assured, it is real, and it does indeed spell out bounty.

The Losers

Okay so while The Spirit is a horrible film, i felt it was one of the best comic adaptations ever. A horrible adaptation of Will Eisner's comic, but a perfect adaptation of the work of Frank Miller. i mean, it was essentially the Dark Knight Returns on the silver screen, over the top, bad dialogue and goofy villians all the way. i have a love hate obsession with it, it's so painful, and yet so fun.
Anyway, i didn't think there would ever be a more honest translation of comic to movie, and then i saw the Losers:

And amazingly, it's really good.
It's got everything, the stereotypical characters, the cliche story and crazy schemes, the femme fatale (Zoe Saldana, what a babe), and even the Saturday morning cartoon villain.
And it's entertaining all the way through, i was honestly surprised at how fun and well made this movie was.
And it contains this amazing scene which is by far the best use of a Journey song.

Like Hell

So in preperation for the upcoming Minecraft Halloween update, i made a video showing off part of my world, all the way up to my brand new hellgate.

Hell truly is ghastly.

Check out more hell previews over at pcgamer and the biome info over at Notch's blog.

i haven't been this excited about halloween in quite awhile.

Sherlock

Fairly well done modern adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. Great acting, i love the updates like the nicotine patches and texting. And hey, Arthur Dent!
Moffat has some clever dialogue in here, he's great with dialogue, but seems to lack the mystery chops. The Sherlock Holmes books were told from the point of view of Watson. And while Watson is quite clever, he's no Holmes, so he'd never fully know what was going on.
In this story Holmes just misses the glaringly obvious so the story can go on. i knew it was the cab driver once it turned out the passenger was just some tourist, i mean come on, there's no reason for Sherlock or Watson to have not thought of that. Not realizing the location of the phone was a bit annoying as well.
Since they never revealed the secret of the pills i'm going to assume they took a page from The Princess Bride.
Inconceivable!
The Mycroft reveal was nice, however i had guessed it, which makes me wonder if Moffat writes things he thinks are clever, or if he writes things for people to figure out so they think they're clever.
Could've done without the high functioning sociopath line as well. "I'm a sociopath now, sociopaths are cool." Yeah, thanks Dexter.
Other than those minor quibbles, it was really entertaining. Much like how i enjoyed the detective view in Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes, i rather enjoyed the text clues that came up while Sherlock was investigating.
I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the series and am pleased to hear they're working on a second.

Eliva is back!

Oh Elvira, how we've missed you.
Unfortanetly it seems that PDXtv is only showing it at three in the morning on Sundays.
Oh, well.

Mostly i just want to comment on how awesome this is:

To whom it may concern.

It's looks like the big unveiling is coming November 16th.

Not really sure what to make of this:



Publisher Clearing House meets "Take me to your leader"

Good Music is at Hand!

My favourite website for MP3's is rising from the dead, that's right kids!

epitonic is back!

This means quite a lot to me, it'd be hard to list the bands that this website introduced me to.
Even though it's been dormant for years, i'd still go back hoping to see what i'm seeing now.
So yes, go forth, donate and help epitonic come back! You can even go and enjoy the old classic site while you're at it!
