Kahn!!!

You know what I'm talkin' 'bout Burke...oh yes you do.

Rectum?...damn near killed 'em.

Let's all just take a moment of silence for my poor dead car. I got this car right after I started at DNA. It was my "daddy/family car" and it did a damn fine job of it. It's seen me through the birth of both my beautiful girls, 3 moves (one cross country), 2 movies, a tv series and my new venture into the gaming industry. I'll miss it....I had a really good butt groove going.

You will be missed...especially since you were paid off....damn car payments!!!

"Bolt" to see this movie...

So while my lovely lady was out having some "lovely lady time" I took our girls to see Bolt...which is a way of saying I wanted to see Bolt and she had other "not nearly as fun as seeing Bolt" things to do and since, when it comes to seeing movies the girls and I think on the same level, the girls came with me.

As far as movie watching attention spans go, my youngest's attention span lasts about as long as the popcorn does so to say that she was all wiggly about half way through should come as no surprise. My oldest and I, on the other hand, were completely caught up in the show. I really enjoyed this movie. Disney' earlier efforts into 3D were pretty hit and miss with Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons. But with Bolt I think they're really starting to show signs of the good storytelling we all used to get excited about at the mere mention of a Disney animated film. That's not to say this film is perfect, it is a little paint by numbers with the story but it never sinks into pop culture quicksand the way so many animated films feel like they have to do to make a profit.

One thing that I really enjoyed with the story is the omission of a real villain. Much like Finding Nemo this is very much a roadtrip of self discovery and the only real badguys are the ones in Bolt's T.V. world.

I haven't seen Mad 2 yet so I can't comment on it but I will say that for the most part Bolt adds to a wonderful string of animated films that have been released over the last year or so starting with Horton Hears a Who. It's been really exciting seeing an animated film in theaters and thinking to myself "I really can't wait to get that when it comes out on DVD."

I hate the Mac guy.....

....but I looooooooove my new iphone. Much like I did with the internet, sugarfree redbull and "ninja warrior"...I'm trying to figure out how I lived without it.

"The Goon"

Saw this over at cgchar:

Blur Gets a Film

Friday, 11 July 2008

The Hollywood Reporting is saying that Dark Horse Entertainment, David Fincher and animation house Blur Studios are teaming up to bring cult comic "The Goon" to the movies as a CG-animated film. Created by Eric Powell in 1999, the comic follows the adventures of a muscle-bound brawler who claims to be the primary enforcer for a feared mobster. The stories have a paranormal and comedic edge to them and concern ghosts, zombies, mad scientists and "skunk apes." Dark Horse has been publishing the comic since 2003.

Messin' around...

I hates me some lawnwork...

....yeah, not a fan.

Crap or No-Crap....

Wanted: Mix 1/2 awesome gun porn with 1/2 crap, toss is the awesomeness of Angelina. Bake for 20 minutes too long and you get "meh"

Horton: All the Suess, non of the crap. Mmmm, delicious.

HB2: More crap free than the first one.



Iron Man looked crap right in the face, then melted it with his repolsors...Hellz Yeah!!!

Kung fu Panda: Dung Fu?.....Noooooo. This Kung Fu is stronger than yours! Two for two on the animation front....niiiiiiiice.


Primer: That's some trippy shit, yo.


Step Brothers: Laughed till I pooped a little.


The Incredible Hulk: Only the faint aroma of doggy bombs in a couple places. The rest is like a big, green, ass-whoopin, summers breeze.


Wall-E: Genius...three fantastic animated films this year. Makes me excited for the industry again.


The Dark Knight: Batman beats the crap out of it. Joke scares the crap out of it...what more can I say. Plus it has the single best magic trick ever put on film.


Ok, that's about it. More to come....eventually.
