Looking at the source material I know I’m walking right into a publicity stunt for the most part but really this is something I firmly believe in. After recently watching “Hitman” and by default finding it to be the best video game based movie so far while watching yesterday LOTR:TTT I said to vanbergs “I don’t think they will ever make movies that are this cool ever again.” Then I said “If they made a proper Halo based movie they could”.
Personally I’ve never seen any of his films but it’s always been a small personal goal of mine to see all the video game based movies. I’ve seen the Mortal Kombat movies and I own the abysmal Super Mario Brothers movie on DVD but never seen a Uwe Boll movie.
Today I stumbled upon this article quoting if a this petition receives a million signatures Mr. Boll will stop butchering video game licenses. I urge all to sign. Time needed was about 40 seconds. The likelihood of this reaching a million signatures is slim but you can’t claim victory if you don’t even try.
OK lets see here. On my bookshelf there are probably over 20 unread books I want to read. On my video game shelf I have another 20 games I still haven’t defeated. My DVD’s are stacked with unopened and unwatched DVD’s.
This is what I call Media Overload. I love reading. I love playing video games. I love watching movies. The problems is that there is TOO MANY good books, video games and movies to consume.
Everybody I believe has queues of entertainment they don’t have the time to do because of there are already a million things everybody needs to do and wants to do and sadly everybody has to work sometime.
Personally I don’t view this as a problem but more of a discussion point. It’s a good thing in our day of age that we have so much entertainment available. Do others find Media Overload a issue? I’d like to hear some feedback mostly because I think about it a lot.
As a few people know I’ve created a character in World of Warcraft. When watching the opening movie and the reading the propaganda on their homepage it seems the world Blizzard is trying to protray is one of epic propotions.
After playing on and off for a little bit the game really does seem less then epic. I’ve been planning on writing an appropriate post on my thoughts but really the video below should sum up my feelings on WoW. Well not really but it’s pretty funny IMHO…..
Along with trying out WoW (proper post coming soon promise), when I’m away from my iMac on my laptop I installed Diablo 2. When traversing the world I came across this wonderful “location”. After battling hordes of demented enemies the game wanted me to stick..um….place my…umm…I’m not into that type of thing…
This past Saturday I purchased a Nintendo Wii. With the recent release of Metroid Prime 3 now was as good of time as any.
My quest for a Wii really wasn’t that difficult. Since they have been released back in November of 2006 I’ve only seen one system on store shelves and at that time I wasn’t in the position to buy one. This weekend I said I will make a MINOR effort to see if I could pull the plug and make the purchase.
My first stop was Meijers. There was need to go anyway because the cats needed litter and food. No dice at Meijers. The day was nice so I decided WTF lets go to Best Buy. As I’m driving up to park I see some tool walking out with with on so I go in and see just a stack of Wii’s.
I ended up purchasing Wii Play, Metroid Prime 3, and an extra Nunchuk. From my birthday I had $70 in gift certificates so the money hurt wasn’t so bad. So far it’s been a fun purchase. Playing four person tennis was a blast, bowling rules, and Metroid Prime 3 rocks even though I’m not that far into it.
If anybody wants to send me messages or whatnot my Wii Number is 6035 8457 6609 7735.
