Words fail me with this movie, but people say that pictures are worth a thousand words right?
Yeah yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve made an actual post, but at the very least I did some reviews! That’s something right?
Not much new on this end… well that is not much new that I will class under the News section. I have seen a couple movies lately (The exceptionally average 28 Weeks later, and the amazingly pathetic The Fountain) and I plan on reviewing those — and most likely linking in this post after the fact — a little later.
I started reading this book directly on the tail-end of The Zombie Survival Guide. I have to say that where the Guide failed to impress, this book delivers.
The book takes place years after what the Guide specified as a “Class 4″ or when Zombies overthrew the world, and mankind goes into hiding. The book is basically a recount of peoples tales of what happened before, during and after the “Great Panic”.
When I started reading this book, I can honestly say that I was expecting a humourous, maybe even cute survivalists guide to a Ghoul outbreak. Lord, even something that was at the very least eccentric in its writing style or message.
Hell was I wrong.
I usually find it hard to sum up a movie in one word. This is not one of those times. A friends msn name said it best:
“Spiderman 3 = Disappointing”
I couldn’t have said it any better, but before I get into this lemme put things into context here. I love Spider-man. Truly I do. The idea that a man is doing the right thing even though his world falls apart around him is truly noble and something I wish to aspire two when push comes to shove. Having said that, I want to point out that I did my utter and complete best not to put this movie on a pedestal. I avoided trailers when I could, nor did I read up on it. I never visited the website nor read any threads on it.
I was unintentionally saddened by this movie.
What happens when you take every SuperCop movie, combine it with fantastic writing and British humour so dry, you could use it as a combustible fuel? You get Hot Fuzz. I’m still new at this movie review thing, so I’m going to try to do this as best I can.
This movie is for all [...]
So the server hasn’t burnt down, which I can only assume is good news. I’ve gotta get around to getting the google ads back in and possibly the shoutbox (don’t quote me on that) as well as a couple nifty plugins to get things going properly!
Anyways, onto the pointless prattling that is my blog.
