All Female Ghostbusters III...
While on the one hand I like the idea of challenging the stereotype that females aren't into anything technical. They'd have to be open minded to technical stuff in order to be the scientists that the Ghostbuster are or at least have a couple of geek girls.. OK at least one! In the original Ghostbusters there where two scientists with degrees in ( Read more... ) -
Xenomorph
About the "xenomorph" name in Aliens. I'm glad someone wrote an article such as this. When Lt. Gorman coined that name he wasn't even aware of what he was talking about. He didn't know what was waiting for them on the surface. It could have been anything. Xenomorph isn't the official name of the species of alien in the film ( Read more... ) -
Video Games The Movie
I was watching Video Games: The Movie (2014) and I have to say I don't like it. First of all it gave no lip service whatsoever to the personal computer's role in video games. Even if just mentioning its role in developing games as well as originating the modern graphics processing unit. Not to mention pioneering such stuff that is now taken for ( Read more... ) -
Gremlins 2 Blu-Ray remaster.
I just finished watching Gremlins 2 blu-ray remaster. Here's my mini-review.. This is a movie I'm well acquainted with and have seen several times in the past. I enjoy it as a parody film it was even a parody of the first film I also enjoyed the fun campy nature of the film and even the part where they break the fourth wall during the latter part ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I love this new trailer for Mad Max Fury Road! If the movie is anything like it it's just as apocalyptic as I would want Mad Max to be! Also this is the first time I've heard Tom Hardy's Mad Max voice. It seems more gritty and gravelly than Mel Gibson's ever was.
Also, to be honest this seems like it's going to be more exciting than the ( Read more... ) -
Batman v. Superman Dawn of Justice
Looking at the comments for the leaked teaser trailer for Batman v. Superman I see a lot of people underestimate Batman. Frankly, however.. the only limits a comic book character has are the ones the writers write. Take it from me it's probably not going to be the two minute battle where Superman immediately demolishes and then kills Batman like ( Read more... ) -
Ghost in The Shell 2.0
I'm watching the remastered Ghost In The Shell movie known as Ghost in The Shell 2.0. Quality seems mixed bag though. What I mean is.. while the newer DTS-ES 6.1 1.5Mbps soundtrack is a marked improvement over the original mix the visuals are another story.
It seems as if they may have tried to make it look "more clean" by removing the film grain ( Read more... ) -
Sailor Moon Crystal Episode 2
The second episode of Sailor Moon Crystal has been out for days now but it wasn't showing up in my Crunchyroll queue for some reason. I had to go look under updated in Crunchyroll;XBMC to find it. Here's my mini review:
That said I'm glad I did because personally I'm enjoying it. I really don't care what others think. I'm not as picky as they are ( Read more... ) -
Dolby ATMOS for the home...
Denon has already made an Audio/Video receiver with a home version of Dolby ATMOS! Basically what this adds to 7.1 surround sound is two ceiling speaker channels... they call it 7.1.2 with the .2 being the two extra celling speakers. If you count the channels normally like operating systems do though that'd be 10 channels. 7.1 is counted as 8 ( Read more... ) -
DOOM DOOM DOOM DOOM DOOM
So they are making a Doom (game) reboot now that goes back to its roots and also draws inspiration from the Brutal Doom mod while at the same time taking the graphics to the next level.
On the one hand I'm not a hater against Doom 3 and the more survival horror type direction it took. Especially after I applied mods to it that changed things ( Read more... )
