Snow is falling in Paris, side effects of the radioactive fallout from the Arab nations. (more…)

Hi. Some Zombie interviews in the style of World War Z are coming soon.

Hi. I exist. Just so you know. I’m still here.

Now in Review: 2012

This movie just adds to the 2012 phenomenon, which, in my opinion, will never happen. So, the end of the world happens. A family flees the disaster, with humans dying off like flies. They climb onboard a huge ship, just as giant tidal waves encompass the globe. Now, on to the characters: The Americans, Chinese, and African-Americans seem very stereotipical, and, like Avatar and Star Wars the Clone Wars, they are wooden. The most realistic characters are the Russians. They have the only humourus lines, and, guess what: THEY ALL DIE. One dies in a crash landing, one drowns, and one falls off of a cliff. The only decent parts of this movie are the special effects.  But one more thing: The best character is an eccentric conspiracy theorist named Charlie, who also dies.

Rating: 5

All Halo species project something:

Grunts: They project weakness, blind faith, and cowardice.

Jackals: They project bloodthirstyness, more blind faith, and “tropical bird with lazor”.

Drones: They project blind faith and “giant insect with lazor, omigosh”.

Brutes: They project blind faith the point of being zealous, bloodlust, obesity, and “omigosh, giant ape/rhino/idiot thing with lazor”.

Prophets: They project “small but mighty, when i has army”.

Enginneers: They project pacifism, work ethic, and “omigosh, giant floating thing with no lazor”.

Elites: They project awesomeness, and “ha ha ha, i kill you, then suddenly, omigosh help me help me.”

Humans: They project awesomeness, and resilience.

Flood: They project “omigiosh, parasitic squids”, and sheer, ultimate, incarnate, evil.

Now in review: Star Wars the Clone Wars

First, let me say: GAAAAAAAGH. First Ewoks, next Jar Jar, now this crap? You’ve gotta be kidding me. The animated characters appear eerie. The clones are a cross between redshirts, greenshirts, and spear carriers. The characters are pathetic and stereotipical, and there are large amounts of violence. Clones get their heads shot off, they get punched through the organs, they get used as cannon fodder. Honsestly. There really isnt any plot. They butchered the Star Wars music. Instead of the original Star Wars theme, they put in some weird electric gutairs, and instead of the opening crawl, they have some weird 1970s sport announcer. The addition of Ashoka Tano, a whiny little Padawan twit, and the downplaying of Anakin’s maturity combine to make an onslaught of pure whine. The battles, while the special effects are decent, all seem the same. Slash, slash, some droids fire lasers, slash again. They add in some slug-like baby thing, beloning to Jabba the Hutt. All in all, they butchered Star Wars. The death throes began in the prequels, but this was the killing blow. Rating: 2

Now in Review: Avatar

This movie is, well, weird. I don’t know how else to put it. Its just bad. First point: The humans are evil. The blue people are good. There are plot inconsistincies, and the characters seem wooden, and lack life. The side characters are forgotten. And, in the final battle, an army of blue people riding animals with bows and arrows triumpth over an army of humans with machine guns, mech suits, and aircraft. The only good part of this movie are teh special effects. They are breathtaking, and seem lifelike, unlike teh characters. So, all in all, science fiction fans are advised to steer clear of this movie, if you want to take it seriously. Rating: 4

They are the staple of every science fiction game.  An alien race, bent on destroying all of the Humans.  Halo is no exception.  So, I will describe the alien empire in Halo, known as the Covenant, as best as possible.

Grunts: The cannon fodder of the Covenant. They have methane tanks. They are weak and cowardly.

Jackals:  The snipers and support troops of the Covenant. Use energy shields, plasma pistols, carbines, and beam rifles.

Drones: An insect-like species, who swarm at opponents, firing plasma pistols.

Engineers: The technicians of the Covenant. Engineers are unarmed, and even rapair human equipment. They sometimes even repair human equipment. They don’ t take sides. They just want to fix some stuff.

Brutes: Brutes are the commanders of the Covenant army. They project stupidity, obesity, and blind white rage.

Prophets: Prophets are the religous leaders of the Covenant. In Halo 3, they are exposed as frauds.

Elites: The Elites used to be the backbone of the Covenant military, but they were backstabbed, betrayed, and used as scapegoats one too many times. They sided with the humans in Halo 3.
