Them Media

I’ve been trying to shove media into my brain.

Movies:

Harry Potter : Goblet of Fire

The movie was a little draggy for me. I had to go to the toilet once because of my weak bladder(it’s heridatary) and also maybe because I was restless. The movie was well done though I would admit, but maybe a little rushed ? Try being a director that crams 300+pages into 2 something hours. Oh , and Cho looks so chinesey !! hehe …. later on , she’s kinda cute I guess.

The only way to watch this film is in a crowded cinema with all those teen girls squeeming at the guys ( the twins and Cedric ). Oh , and the restless kids who have to go toilet often.

Doom
This movie stinks. Along with all the video-game adaptations. Name me one good video-game movie and I’ll eat a frog. Figuratively, of course.

Music:

The Used - In Love And Death
So this album speaks to the inner emo kid in me. So what ? Perhaps they use the bleeding metaphor a little too much ?

Sufjan Stevens - Illinoise
Highly recommended. Nothing like I’ve ever heard before. I skip the instrumentals though. Parts melodramatic and rousing, about the state of Illinoise, from Wayne Garcy the serial killer, to UFOs , to Andrew Jackson to Metropolis and Superman and about Ghosts.

Arcade Fire - Funeral
Very slowly growing on me. It might be brainwashing me.

Team Sleep
Fronted by Deftone’s Chino Moreno, this electronica band is something different. A little mellow and depressing. But nice.

Games:

Resident Evil 4
The game is very solid and has great gameplay. The best Resident Evil game ever. But they try to throw in every B-grade-movie-cliche’ and has one of the lousiest endings ever. (They ride off into the sunset with a jetski ?? COME ON !!)

Ratchet : Deadlocked
The spider tank rocks ! The action rocks ! Damn I gotta sit down and start this game.

Urban Reign
Never have 3 people sat down to play as street gangsters beating up each other to gain possesion of a teddy bear been so fun.

Defense of the Ancients
I’ve been on a losing streak. Stupid game…

Anime:

Basilisk
This anime is very violent, but also very tragic. You sorta care for both the “heroes” and the “villains” but they die anyway. Tragic and absorbing. No shit filler episodes, all very fast paced and action all the way. Did I mention it’s violent ?

Naruto
Currently showcasing stupid shit-filler-non-manga episodes . Who cares about super curry?

Books:

Michael Crichton - State of Fear
Did you know that global warming is just a theory and is debatable ? Well screw those environmentalists and their “dramatic” implications. (Can anyone think of The Day After Tommorow ?) . Better researched than most environmental websites, this book is quite informative.

Websites:

The Perry Bible Fellowship

No , the comic is anything but churchy.

Fazed.org
My number 1 source of Internet bullshit (news,videos)

Wikipedia
I used to read the encyclopedia to sleep. Now I read this online encyclopedia while neglecting sleep.

Its a wonder how I ever find the time to do anything else.
