Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, Brisco County, Xena, Spiderman, Bubba Hotep, Jack of all Traddes, Sky High, Spiderman II, From Dusk til Dawn, Army of Darkness, Congo....that is all I can name, proud that I didn't look any up..but I'm gonna do it now
So, it appears that the rumors are true. My roomate tells me that imdb 'www.imdb.com has updated the list of actors for the upcoming Spiderman III. First off, I have to complain that introducing the Sandman as a villian is a little weak. I was never a fan of the Sandman, and wondering why the Spiderman franchise would include him. I was hoping for the Dr. Co
So, the advocate against videogame violence is now out of vogue. Lawyer and videogame violence against guy Jack Thompson is now being turned on by people that he once regarded as allies. The news that the National Institute of Media and Family has distanced themselves from Thompson is a letter asking him to stop laying claim to them as a ally. This was only a
Once upon a time, there was a company that wanted to revolutionize the gaming industry. Infinium Labs wanted to be asked into your homes and played with. They had a great idea for a system, and that was a broadband gaming system that gave you games from the net. A golden age of gaming was about to begin. This revolutionary system was going to allow you to get games wi
I have recieved a ton of e-mails asking me why I hate the Xbox. I'm not sure where that idea had come from, but I am here to explain a few things. First, I will freely admit that I love the PS2. It wasn't that they were faster or had a better ad campaign, I just liked them. It took a lot for me to hang my Nintendo fanboy hat up a long time ago, when I was hop
I have to disagree with Kan up above. The hardware specs for the 360 show that it will not be superior to the PS3, so why would the games? Some of the games that made the Xbox a hit were also available on the PS2, and even then, popularity could be a factor. PS2 outsold MS at every step, and mostly because of games. The 360 isn't showing a incredible lineup yet, because many of the games have bene pulled for the release, if they are even goin
So, with fall here and winter approaching, what can we expect from the movie industry? Will we be disappointed like so many were with remakes in the summer? Will there be reasons to head out to the movies with friends and families during the holidays? Let's see what is coming out. Not to say that the summer didn't have winners for me, like 40 Year old Virgin, but this
Well, I did. I was shocked that it was out. There was very little fanfare about it, and then the TV spots showed up. What do I think from that 20 secs on the air? Thumbs down. The monster didn't look scary, but a albino pig. And I cna't say that a movie that is supposed to be eerie and scary could be with the Rock in it. 'Nuff said.<!-
So, some of you might not have heard of Jack Thompson before. The well-respected lawyer is a furious, angry advocate against videogame violence. Since he has taken his crusade to the media in the last while, he has challanged the makers of GTA and other game makers to pull what he calls filth off the shelves. He has addressed many challenges to game makers t
Actually, the invention of these companies really have brought the price of your average PC down to a all time low. When the P II came out, the average computer was about $2500. Now, you can pick up a fully loaded computer with a 80 g HDD and usually a DVD Burner for about $500. Where is there proof that these companies AREN'T bringing down the price. They are not the only reason, but they are a contribution factor. Dell is the # 1 seller of computers
So, Peter Jackson has been given a 7 figure advance to produce the movie debut of the massively popular Xbox game. No word on who will direct it, whether it be Jackson or the other lucky man to be offered a advance for producing, Fran Walsh. I'm not sure if the issue here will be ' Will this movie suck?'. Peter Jackson has shown that he has a falre for makin
With the current push by Microsoft to put out the Xbox 360 before it's two main conpetitors have a console out of the box, the question is will Sony lose out in the next gen console war? Sony had a sweet grace period last time new consoles were announced. Microsoft was new to the whole idea of a gaming console and took a little more time in developing it's sy
You know, you are correct sir, but I had to check and did some research, thank you for the catch.
So, in my province, British Columbia, the Supreme Court has decided that it will sue Tobacco companies for 50 years of damage done to smokers by smoking. 50 years! The Supreme Court ruled that the Tobacco companies willfully sold a product that has both long term and short term effects that can cause many things, including death. Wow, that is a reve
It is the battle of VHS vs. Beta all over again. The big guns are starting to pick their sides in the next 'media revolution', that being the next form of media for us lucky consumers to buy. That is correct, Dorothy, there is a new Standard coming out. The much touted BlueRay discs vs HD-DVD. The Playstation 3, one of hte most expected game consoles, is goi
As many of you have probably read by now, a admitted pirate in the vacinity of Houston, Texas, has been fined $1.1 million dollars from having over 5,100 counterfiet copies of Symantec's Norton products. Li Chen, owner of Microsource International, was also found to have sold over 9.9 million dollars in pirated software. The total restitution came to 1,005,000 million
So, I bought a album the other day and thought it was great. Now, I don't normally purchase music, but I do when it is a band that I like, and has proven that there will be more than a catchy single on the CD. The one I purchased was the new alubm by a group from texas called Bowling For Soup. I am a big fan of their music and for that, I bought the CD.
Yes, DELL is exclusive to INTEL, but that is just more of a image thing. In talking with many people, including some marketing people that used to work for Microsoft, it only makes sense. Intel has played the market relatively well. They are well-known, through tie-ins and commericals. AMD is a word of mouth company that has grown fast. I tend to shift back and forth between who I am siding with. While AMD is, as I have said, makes a superior
The power that a celebrity has is a strange one. For the most part, we as the consumer let them into our houses and lives for brief times to fill a purpose. Most of that time, it is for entertainment value. Only in America can we take a New Jerseian that tried to have his wife killed by his mistress and give him 15 minutes of fame. A place where a intern in
First, let me say that, for once, I tend to dismiss a celebrity out of hand. I had read her statement and actually sat there with my mouth hanging open until a friend asked me what is wrong and I made them read the single most retarded statement I have read all year. It seems to me that the author, which until a few years ago have respected, seems to be dropp
I had heard that there was a Final Fantasy movie hitting the streets that took up the story of our favorite heroes from Final Fantasy VII. Well, all ecpect that one dead girl anyway. The point is, after a long silene, FF VII, still a benchmark in videogame amazement, was coming back in style. There are, also I might add, a couple of games that are also comin
agreed, it won't stop users, for the most part, too much, to loop around such measures. The point is that something IS being done. I'm not sure if people really understand, at least for Asia, that MMO lifestyle is becoming a little dangerous. It is fine to look at a article and kind of be amazed at the stuff that is going on, and laugh at it, but there is a problem when things like death result because of a video game. I'm not saying that it is a video
So, I left my lvl 60 Priest to fend for her own a couple of weeks ago and started a rogue on a different server. First off, because the constraints of work would prevent me from raiding with my guild in MC and BWL, I couldn't make it for these raids, and I am at that point where raiding for equipment becomes more and more important. I joined the Dark Iron se
Well, to comment on one of the above, yes, there are people that can 'hold their game', as it were, but from reading all the media that comes out of Asia as far as the level that gamers take it their playing to, I would have to say that it would be a better idea to impose some sort of restriction until people get their priorities straight. I mean, come on, a child lost their life because parents wanted to play online. That is really what we should be l
So, it seems that after a few deaths, Asia and it's game loving people are going to have a hefty withdraw as early as October of this year. After the untimely death of a small child while the child's parents left the child alone to go to a internet cafe to get in a few hours of World of Warcraft, the powers that be decided that it was time to put a end to vid
