  • and here we...go!

    So, as is the custom, I will start writing again in this brand new year...again...for like 2 days. Seriously, though. Does anyone even use Xanga anymore? I'm sure the only response will be from my best friend. That means you! Hurry, though. First in line gets best friend status. Nah, when you get married, you don't have friends anymore, right? -I'm just kidding...seriously Michelle and Jerry and Ron and John and Jeff and Megan and Brooke and Kristin and Cameron and Tracy and Miranda...in no particular order.

    So here is my point:

    I have no point.

    Good to see you all! Thanks for comin out!

    Super Terrific Anime Hour!!! Fun for Hole Family!

    I've seen it all

    Do you know what I hate?

    Anime.

    Anime that pulls out all the stops and shows off all of the main characters abilities in the first episode.

    Wait, let me start over.
    You know what really grinds my gears? YOU AMERICA.


    I just decided to abuse my Netflix subscription and watch some streaming anime. My pick: Gun Sword. Sounded lame, but I gave Samurai Gun a chance before returning it without finishing the DVD. Plus, this is a part of my subscription. If it sucked, I could stop it and pick something else out. To be honest, the anime showed promise.
    Main character looks like Spike Spiegel in a Tux and a D hat(AKA Red Mage Hat). He even has Vash The Stampedes voice acter to back up my next comment. I liked the comedy and the fact that it was a carbon copy of something you might get if you mixed Trigun with Scryed. Animation is decent for the super-deformed genre.

    The gripe starts with the fact that you see his skill at beating up the bad guys right away. No surprises. His sword morphs and he is basically impervious to injury. hat's boring. It shows a lack of creativity on the writer's behalf and inability to formulate scenarios in which Van would have to should his ability to defuse a situation without relying heavily on his powers.
    Then we end up seeing a pedestrian, yet well thought-out villain, that is undoubtedly disposed of after the first episode, use some insane ability that wasn't even hinted at before it shows it's face. Giant summonable robots, called 'Armour'. Well, inevitably, Van uses his, and beats the badguy, hands-down.
    It left me unimpressed.
    BUT, and I want you to imagine the best of Lewis Black impression...
    but I'm gonna watch the next one, and I'm gonna hate it, and I'm gonna hate myself for watching it...and hating it.

    The moral of this story is:
    Kids, don't stare at a train wreck.

    "You know, after breaking bread with Emeril, despite all the laughs I've shared at his expense, he's not such a bad guy. Rachael Ray still sucks."

    -Anthony Bourdain

    I think I woke the neighbors laughing at that one. Seriously.

    So I happened upon some interesting news, comic fans. I was looking for the Iron Man superbowl spot, since I missed most of it, and I heard that a Venom movie was being toyed with. That's not my news though. I was checking out some info on The Incredible Hulk since that's the next big Marvel movie. I had heard that the idea of an Avengers movie was being discussed, and vague plans of at least one movie for each member to set the slate. Cool, that's not my news either. With the idea of crossover movies a distant reality, I scanned the cast of The Incredible Hulk to find Robert Downey Jr as the second line item after Ed Norton as Bruce Banner. He's crossing over as Tony Stark and that's progress. Crossover comic movie...that's PROGRESSIVE.

    Ok, I'm done.

  • Oh crap

    So, I didn't know whether to get excited or not 2 years ago when I heard about a sequel, and I have been paciently waiting for signs of truth to the rumors. I mean, this is a labor of love for Guillermo Del Toro, so it would be a shame if there weren't sequels. Well, I saw a large display at the theatre when I went to see Enchanted (which was pretty good), and I almost wet myself.

    the main antagonist looks like Drizzt Do'Urden...but white. It looks pretty good.

    Day eight. Gym commitment going well. Now I’m eating chocolate chip cookies and drinking cherry 7-Up.

    I wish I was Anthony Bourdain.

    I did well this Christmas. I got alot of things I wanted. I'm entirely satisfied. There's a couple things I still want and plan to get in the near future.

    1. FLCL box set

    2. The Orc King by R A Salvatore

    3. New boots

    4. Socks

    5. Undies

    That's about it. I think I can wing those. Can we say 'tax refund'?

     

    I would like to pitch a new product. Check it out, it's an invention. When Paige and her mother were at the gym, this creepy old asian guy was staring at them. So I have a solution.

     

    The iLeer

     

    The iLeer is a device that can instantly capture sweaty babes at the gym safely and discreetly. Now when she says 'Why don't you take a picture', you can! You have nothing to fear with iLeer(tm).
