When ever you get to a party, and you’re really late, you feel as if you’ve been missing out on a bunch of cool stuff. So I got myself a PS3 just before the holidays and I’ve been going through a bunch of games I never got to play before. So here is to the first one I’ve completed, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.
It’s hard to describe how much fun I had playing that video game. It was release back in Q4 2007 and was appreciated by many critics. Now I’ve tried playing a Tomb Raider game before, and totally hated it. But this video game, is a live action adventure in the making. The characters are highly relatable and most of the mechanics of the game are plain fun. Simple puzzle solving, jumping from ledge to ledge, always on the brink of death. Many times I got a high stress level simply because I didn’t want my character to die. Usually it’s simple to discard this feeling considering nowadays you simply re-spawn to the check point that was 20 seconds ago.
New Model, Original Parts. This trailers flown below my radar, but I’m very much looking for the FOURTH part of the franchise. From the trailer I get the feel they are going back to their roots and what made me like the very first movie. They’ve got the original cast back with the exception of a few minor characters, and it’s back to stealing of valuable goods paired with high speed chase on the freeway. Someone unfamiliar with the franchise could believe that screenshots from the trailer. I’ll be very honest, the original had a special place in my heart from my teenager years. I doubt they’ll be able to bring anything new to the table, but I believe this sequel will be what previous sequels should of been from the start. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, it’s embeded below.
Welcome to a 2008 movie I’ve missed, and I am glad to have now seen. This movie falls in the category of remakes from the same family as War of the Worlds. A fresh look at a great science fiction story. Keanu Reeves, plays the avatar to an alliance of alien races that think we’re killing this planet (wich we totally are doing). He attemps to communicate to the world a message of salvation hoping they will listen, however he is quickly shown that goverment, army and people in general are just hostile towards what they don’t understand.
Our first interaction with him is a bullet to the chest. Aside from character development and that annoying kid that I loved to hate, the movie shows off how cool aliens can be, unclear of what technology they might be using. Indicating how out of reach they are, and how miserable we truly are in the grand scheme of things. Sadly, the movie fails at having the message come across to the general public. As shown in this poster, what I’ve liked the best about the movie was how bad ass the giant “robot” was. The Day the Earth Stood Still is a clever reference to how the movie ends, but you should go read 13 WTF Moments From ‘The Day The Earth Stood Still’ Remake that demonstrates many confusing and geeksome moments of the movie. [Spoilers] It’s clear that Jaden Smith doesn’t want to be a cute little kid as seen in The Pursuit of Happiness, I would of smacked him multiple times during the movie. I even dared to say that if he were to die during the movie Klattu should NOT revive him. If he wants to save the Earth he should start by getting rid of that one first. I digress, I love kids in general!
I have no idea why people have been bashing at The Spirit. I’ve found it to be very entertaining. It’s true that the visual style it’s been granted would scream Sin City 2. The story was pretty good, that hero of the city that seems to recover from any wounds. Unlike Wolverine from the X-Men he can get a beating and doesn’t heal on the spot. The character actually ends up on the operation table quite often. But what was the brink of death is now only a matter of getting a new outfit that was worn out during the latest fight. Samuel L. Jackson plays the role of the demented villain called The Octopus who seeks immortality. There is an underlying love story between the main character and a female thief that turns out to be his high-school sweetheart.
