Natural Selection #2

This video is just mind blowing, I can't believe a road could be that slick. What is so silly is people see all these cars so messed up yet they try to come down the same street!

you can hear the nerds bones crack as their posture changes b/c they are so pumped about being nerds that can virtually stab people!

Natural Selection #1

I really enjoi Darwinism, it is fun to think about especially how it relates to humanity. From now on I will post videos and other critters that relate to how natural selection is taking place as we speak.

Example #1

Wild Animal Candies Wet Themselves on Stage!

This is a video made by an olde timey pal of mine Ben Cooper. Currently he is in production for a video for the Its. It is an excellent use of crayons, paper, and warm gummy bears with alcohol infused stop action. Take a peek

Harry Potter: The Order of the Pheonix

I seen it yesterday with my fiancee`, Pasta, who surprisingly got us tickets for the IMAX 3-d version at Navy Pier in Chicago. I am always pumped about seeing films @ an IMAX b/c I love how my brain needs to process information differently when the film starts. It is just so massive, you feel a "click" inside as you begin to process the glory on the screen. The sound is also amazing and immersing b/c of the 15k watts surging in the theater. Well about the film.

We were given these bulky 3-d glasses that were made to fit all, but I heard kids QQ'ing about the glasses not fitting their heads, but the glasses fit comfortably over my glasses and made me feel sex-e. The film started interestingly enough in a playground with Harry's cousin "Big D" threatening to beat up Harry. Pasta turned to me and said this is way different than I expected. Pasta is an avid Potter connoisseur and knows much of the books by heart. Pasta also said the 3-d sort of sucks, and then told me she realized the objects fell back into the screen instead of popping out.

That is something I have known through my research and love of 3-d. Most new types of 3-d glasses use a polarized sun glass lens to offset the images on the screen, so if you were wearing the 3-d glasses while watching a normal program that has the main characters in better light than the background, the shadows tend to fall back into the screen more than normal creating a false 3-d effect that is semi-satisfying. SCIENCE!

The film itself was interesting and quick paced. I did not feel lost by the story and enjoyed the idea of putting myself in the situation of the students. Umbridge is a twisted and corrupt woman that thankfully gets whats coming to her towards the climax of the film. The new editions to the film did an excellent job adding to the magical Potter world through excellent acting. Luna Lovegood was one of my favorite new characters because she has a strange charm about her that Harry shares. They have both seen someone die and it gives them the ability to see and hear things that the other people cannot.

Towards the excellent climax of the film a warning came up on the bottom of the screen to put on our 3-d glasses. Everyone was saying "WTF" for not knowing that the glasses should have not been worn till this point. The 3-d now kicked in full force! Let me tell you... it was pathetic. The darker the object was, the more it was split into 2 images. I was quite disappointed during an awesome battle seen against the Order and the Death Eaters. Right after someone dies... Harry runs after the Killer, Belatrix... only to be schooled by Voltimort who just paws Harry's wand away like a polar bear! I laughed pretty hard at it and kept doing it to Pasta when the film was over. Then PIZZOW! Ganindorf pops out of a fire and starts battling Bad V in awesome 3-d!!! The scene was very bright and the 3-d worked fantastic in this bright setting. It was so awesome and a very good battle. One point you think Ganandorf is winning, then you think V is winning, then Harry tries to help and Ganandorfs paws him away and I laughed some more, the Ganandorf does this awesome water thing against V and it looks like he is about to kick V's ass... BUT then V is just about to get blasted and he takes the power blast and just LAUGHS and does this HAHA thing with his body! SO COOL. They all this glass comes flying down and shoots towards Ganandorf and Harry and Ganan makes this sheild and turns the glass into nano-powders! HAHA!

Then Volt turns into sand but really didn't leave... HE IS JUST INSIDE OF HARRY! Harry says Volt you are teh suck b/c you don't have friends and Volt has to leave. Then the ministry of magic comes down and sees Volt standing in this power globe of death sand and says, "Dag, he is back!" The main point of the film is the world of magic is divided b/t Vold is really back and he is not really back.

I gave it a night to think about and decided this film is better than the last one of the goblet fire. I dug the dragon battle in that film. I was still confused about somethings b/c there were little holes in the film of why things were happening, but Pasta filled me in. IF you have any questions about the film just leave a comment and she will fill you in. I give this film 5 broomsticks.

Age of Conaan Gameplay Video

From what I could tell from the 6 minute video is that this is going to be a hardware intensive game. The colors and animations are crisp and clean at this beta stage, I am sure they are crunching on updated textures for their demo @ E3 this month. The video shows no HUD, so you can't really tell what is going on. All you can see is a warrior fighting other NPC's as well as a sorcerer casting the same spell over and over. Any updates I find will be posted in the comments.

UPDATE: New E3 Video hosted by Gamespot.com

this girl

datin' this girl who's a bit more high maintenance than what i'm used to. always raggin' on me for how i dress n shit. so i straight up told her you can dress me however you want, but you'll never get me to stop playing video games!

aren't you proud of me?

well... things are a bit rocky right now, so you'd all better appreciate it.

So my free Vista upgrade came today from Dell

Only it was about 6 months late. Submitted the code in January.

SO MUCH ROBI!

Transformers the Movie is without a doubt the best movie I have ever SEEN!

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind. The film pushes it's PG-13 rating with plenty of mature material including a film about alien robots and a mom asking if she should call masturbation "Sam's happy time".
The film captivated me from the beginning. Evens Stevens actor Shailo kicked so much ass in the film. He completely filled the role of the Hero while fighting along side the beautiful robots. I was amazed by how far Computer Graphics had come. These effects were so life like it was difficult to step back into reality after the film. Optimus Prime got a sweet upgrade in terms of sweet flames and sweet truck parts. I noticed the parts of the film where they used a real truck Optimus Prime had a lot of tire shine on, but when CG Prime showed up the tires were dirtier. What a nerd observation! wow

The theater smelt a lot like anime and comic book conventions and of course there were the people that clapped at random parts. I will never understand clapping at a movie unless I was at a premier with creators of a film. I really hope they bring constructacons and the critters from Beast Wars in for a new film.

Oh and the movie has a twist I didn't see coming near the end! ALSO stick around through the end credits. DO A BARREL ROLL ^wink wink^

Re: iPhone silliness

I agree with Mattias.

...Until I see or read anything about it. Once that happens, my technolust kicks in.

I want an iPhone just so I can rub myself with it.
