Smallville Season Finale

2007-12-16T20:47:00.001-08:00

Epic.

A word I would use to some up an amazing episode of Smallville. But Im not. It was just pretty good.

Seem's Lex's army plotine is over with the snap of the fingers. He just left them there once the kid went resident evil on him. There should have been more thought there or at least a hint hat we'd see more of Lex's army in teh future, but that storyline looks dead in the water now.

Clark tells Lana his origin story! Fina-fucking-lly. Theres not much impact though because we've seen this exchange a hundred times before in those one-off episodes in different dimension/time/what if/bullshit things. lana says she's leaving and leaves. You'd think he'd call after her and stop her, but Clarks a man's man. She can go to hell. To which she does, because 5 minutes later she gets blown to shit.Car bomb and all that, seemingly planted by Lex. But we all know shes alive due to the clever machanic of having a ice cream truck obscure Lana getting into her car. I think we can assume she's alive. Shit.

Lois fuck's about in this episode as always and gets stabbed hunting down Lex's secret's for the #9123232 time. Chloe comes to the rescue but Lois looks dead. Yes! No more manly face to look at and go "ugh, thats Supermans love interest at some point". Chloe uses her "power" and brings back Lois from the dead. shit. And as a consequence, Chloe is now dead. SHIT. Fucking Lois Lane man. Chloe, who is far superior to that manly rug muncher, is dead. This finale has gone tits-up.

Anyway, turns out Clark is the martian-manhunter (a character who shouldnt be there at all, why the fuck is he there? honestly?) is Clarks gaurdian. *sigh*. Fucking writers of this show man. If he was his gaurdian wouldnt he have showed up 3 seasons ago with the zod storyline? The time when he might have been actually usefull?

Anyway, the phantom and Clark meet and the Phantom hurls itself at Clark. Instead of making Clark its host however, it Turns into a bad version of Clark.They fight for awhile and its pretty sweet. Turns out this cat is Bizarro. Bizarro of all the fucking people. Fucking writers man.

Anyway, the show left itself on a cliffhanger and we dont know whats going to happen. Thats what the writers thinka anyway. were not that stupid though. They'll all make it out safe. I fucking garauntee that.

The whole episode felt like it was just tieing up all the loose ends to dump the storylines for a fresh show next season. It failed at a few things though, namely killing Lana when we know shes not dea,killing chloe when we know shes not dead and introducing martian manhunter as Clarks gaurdian. The scene where Clark told Lana everything could have been better. Alot better. It needed more that just hammy lines and a kiss. It needed power. Writers failed.

Roll On new season.

Heroes season finale review : part 1 of 4

2007-12-12T11:45:00.001-08:00

So yes, due to the shitty negotiations between the WGA and those greedy bastards at various television networks, Heroes ended after 11 mediocre episodes. Yeah, mediocre. They weren't the best weekly 40 minutes ill remember when Im about to die in my sickbed with my relatives around me. The last episode was about as fun to watch as a horse getting a handjob.

Lets review shall we?

So the episode opens up with with Mohinder “Im about as interesting to watch as a limp cock” Suresh walks into his appartment to find sylar, a character misused this season, in his 1930's wooden desk chair. Mohinder reacts with the same reaction he uses for everything. He'd probably have the same face if I mixed terracotta and beige paint while decorating his appartment. But it turns out that all that driving and brooding/posing sylar has done all season has made him a bit peckish, and Maya is cooking some lunch. God bless that maya, she may be as thick as the walls in a bank, but she can always cook up a storm. Why shes wearing an apron that says “world's greatest dad” is anyones guess. Anyway, after sylar shows his true colours, Maya realises that Sylar is a prick and does that whole “black eyes” thing. Sylar manages to stop her using a child. What a top noch fellow

Next, were with Matt, Nathan and Nathans “im in menopause” mother. Nathan mentions that peters alive, obviously forgetting to tell her that before. Telling my mother her son was alive would slip my mind too. Nathan mum then tells them about Adam/dickens and his plans,how she helped him. She tells them its in primatech paper and they fly off. Fucking literally.

Now, the scene that I hate. Peter and Adam/dickens somehow stroll right into primatech paper, without a single soul asking why they're there. I wish I could just stroll into places without getting bothered about why im there, but im not the awesome peter petrelli or the dickless Adam/kensei. Hiro shows up and he and pete argue about kensei's fate. While Hero points out some things about Adam, to which peter should have copped on too by now, peter decides to save the British git. Peter then knocks out Hiro and re-starts time and once again the workers fail to notice a now unconscious Asian man with a sword in the middle of the floor.

BAM, annoying sound, Heroes eclipse logo.

Part 2 tomorrow

Apparently, Downloading music boosts CD sales

2007-11-03T18:48:00.001-07:00

On torrentfreak.com, they've posted an article, quoted here with link :

http://torrentfreak.com/piracy-boosts-cd-sales-071103/
University of London researchers, Birgitte Andersen and Marion Frenz surveyed a large group of Canadians to find out what the effect of piracy is on music sales. The results are surprising, at least, for the music industry.

The researchers conclude that that people who download more music actually buy more CDs. They report: “We estimate that the effect of one additional P2P download per month is to increase music purchasing by 0.44 CDs per year.”

This basically means that if someone downloads 270 songs a year via BitTorrent, he or she will buy 9 CDs more than someone who only downloads 27 songs. So, in a way illegal downloads actually convert into more CD sales.

Well, If that doesnt encourage you to download without guilt I dont know what will.

You cant Kill a machine like torrents, So why does the RIAA and MPAA try so hard to?

In 2 days I will become a man. An Adult. A piller of society.

No longer will I walk in the shadow of........... ah fuckit. Ill be able to buy beer whenever the tit I fee like it now.

I can vote to, but who fuck does that anymore?

Thus, as the number 18 approches, a pheonix rises from the ashes. Octoberfest 2007. This year will be the second official Octoberfest and something im going to continue every year. The gathering will take place in Shanes on Saturday and hopefully will go off without a hitch and be heralded as "A fucking awesome shindig".

I like Gnome

2007-10-15T12:15:00.001-07:00

It turns out no-one can make a windows XP theme to save their lives. Ive scoured the internet and I cant find ONE, not fucking ONE that is in anyway nice to look at. I do, however, love the gnome themes. Ubuntu's is sexy. Clearklooks is design heaven for me.

Recently ive been really wanting to install Ubuntu and Dual-boot windows and ubuntu, but im afraid of GRUB fucking up or me fucking up and overwriting my windows partition. I want Ubuntu so much it hurts.Why cant there be a totally safe and secure way of doing this?

Im not abandoning windows because I need it for some things, and im pretty sure I wont use ubuntu that much anyway, but a change of scenery is always nice.

piss it.

Firefox has failed me

2007-10-08T10:14:00.001-07:00

For the past while, Firefox has annoyed me with the little things. Its slow to load up at the start sometimes, Its buggy with tabs sometimes, has problems loading javascript and ajax and now It cant fucking play quicktime movies in the browser.

This seriously pisses me off. Opera doesnt have one problem doing any of that, but i stick by Firefox because its got the best extensions and plugins and I like to support the open source cause.

Firefox 3 better have all of this fixed and have that memory leak problem fixed too, otherwise im switching to Opera permanently.

Just got to stick this annoyance out until whenever they release it, which looks like the end of the year (hopefully).

Lately ive been working on a project for Mark called YourDebs.com. Basically its a site where the youth of today can get information and tips for the debs from the youth of today. Its a fairly big project and its in its final Design stages now, but you can see an index page on the site its self.

Ive also been working on a secret project called "UNIVRSE", which isnt really secret, but i dont want to go into detail about it if its not going to happen.

Thats pretty much it in the oh-so spectacular world of Warren.

Will work for 5k gold

2007-06-29T20:24:00.000-07:00

The Summer is in a horrible weather filled full swing and I still dont have a job. Not that I really want one, I just need cash to buy things. I mean ive put out CV's to loads of places, Looked up jobs and even did a sort of Indian rain-dance to summon up some sort of low paying shit heap of a job, but nothing. Its almost as if they were tipped off about me being a lazy bastard. Its already a month into the holidays and If I dont get a job ill by the end ill go nuts. Im contemplating climbing a clock tower with a rifle and a list of names.

I guess all I can do is hand out more CV's and call a few places. You wont catch me behind a "fast food" counter though.Couldn't stand having to take people's orders all day without going "Em, sir. Listen im going to have to tell you that this food will lead to high blood pressure, Obecity and a horrible heart atack later in life. But, I guess, by the look fo you your already half way there".The only job I can think of that id be well suited for and love is working in a video-shopee. Seriously. I have an un-healthy obsession with movies so im perfect and I get free rentals, watch movies in there, possible internet access and I can laugh at peoples choice in film. perfect-o.

Someday it'll happen. Someday....

Bring me the Horizon

2007-04-26T09:35:00.000-07:00

April is crawling to an end and the Summer is near. Yes my children, Summer holidays is on the Horizon.

Most of my month has been spent doing the usual stuff. Studying being an annoying part of that equation. Im not much of a studier so its hard for me, but I really want a good mark this year so ill give it my all. I Finished Lunar Park last night, after only been reading a few chapters a day, and I thought it was Bret Easton Ellis' best work of his so far. The fact that its a faux Autobiography, but written with a great attention to detail and subtle afterthoughts, makes it better to me than American Psycho. Its not a boring book by any means. Murders, Horror and family values of all things makes the thing a page turner. Fans of American psycho should love it and I reccommend it to anyone. If you've never heard of Bret Easton Ellis pick up something by him.

This month has been a bit shit in that I can never get into town to pick up a few trades from ye old Comic shop. Its both lazyness on my part and lack of cash. I did however pick up Batman #664 and Batman : Detective comics #831.
Batman #664 was alright. Im not a huge fan of Grant Morrison and the story was a little slow. It tied a few loose ends for the batman and son story then rushed into a new one which made the story a little thin. The artwork annoying for both heavy line work and was a bordering cartoony.
Batman Dectective stories #831 was great. Paul Dini can successfully do a whole story in one issue and since he's doing countdown ill be picking it up. The artwork was pretty darn good if not for the awkward mouth movements. Good read anyway.

I didnt set out to get these, I had gone to get World War Hulk but they didnt have it on yet and any back issues of All star Batman and Robin were sold out. There wasnt much else that interested me so i grabbed those. I wanted Amazing spiderman too but they were delayed. piss.

Well Thats all I got for now. You never know though, you might get a drunken rant by saturday night.

Myspace Bulletin's

2007-03-28T09:45:00.000-07:00

Ok, im gonna go ahead and tell you something you fucking morons on MySpace. This is something you dont know and i feel privileged to tell you this. I and hundreds of other people DO NOT give a shit about your MySpace bulletins where you post pointless bullshit about your personal lives and expect sympathy. This is an example :

"Im sick Of him hurting me and making me cry so much.

I did everything in my power to make him happy.
I did so fucking much and it wasn't enough.

I'm never going to be good enough.

I can't stop crying.
fuck."

Hate to break it too you dollface, but i dont give a fuck at all. This pathetic cry for attentions just gets a belly laugh out of me. Why post that? why? Seriously, I mean if you post that your only looking for sympathy. The worst part is you'll get some.

I guess its my own fault for opening these bulletins, but when you have titles like "Im sick, really sick" you usually would assume theres something life threatening or whatever. Your curios, but then your greeted to this shit.

Please, if you have to post shit that has nothing to do with me,I dont care about, attention seeking and Pathetic then delete me please unless I delete you first.

Welcome to the real world, you stupid fucking people.

Philidelphia, here I come

2007-03-15T17:25:00.000-07:00

Its hard to put into words my disapointment at this play. Poorly directed and acted, this is probably the worst production ive ever seen by the school. There were some saving graces, but they couldnt make up for it. I cant say I was expecting much, but I did think it would be better than it was. I entered supportive and left disapointed.

By the time me and my associate entered it was roughly 10 mins before the start and there were only 8 people there. We made it up to an even ten, wondering if maybe people were just late. With minutes before the start only a few more came in, making the total for the start 13. Unlucky. The play started with a somewhat camp man introducing the play. It felt unappropriate and out of place. bad start. The lights dimmed, but not as much as we everyone wanted. The light in the room made coupled with the few people in the room made us very aware of each other.

The play started out alright, introducing us to the only character that seemed to remember her lines. This was short lived when the lead made his way onto the stage. Im not sure why the director made him the lead. He had as much charisma as a spoon and spoke all of his lines, not acting. There was nothing there. One major character of the play is the leads concious. Hes depicted as a man in white who shadows the lead, commenting on whats going on in the scene and in the leads head. I know this because I had read the play before I seen it. Everyone else, I thought anyway, didnt seem to grasp this until further on. A good director can make this connection apparent to the audience as soon as the character walks on. This is forgiven by the actors energy about the stage. He wasnt afraid to speak up, deliver lines the right way and even sing the play titles tune. The lead himself though mumbled and was constantly forgetting his lines. Again, Im not sure why he was made the lead. He had no redeeming features and was just annoying. By the first act eveyone knew what they were in for. I actually wanted to leave.

One major plot point of the play is his relationship with his father and trying to speak to him about how he feels. On the stage however this was not really felt,seen or apparent at all. This was mianly due to mumbled lines,forgotten lines and no emotion from either party. If I had'nt read the play i wouldnt have even noticed this plot point. Points like this were all ove the play. Its not even fully explained why he wants to leave in the first place, you have to guess in places. After and hour My associate and I were just waiting for the thing to end. Eventually it ended and we left in a hurry.

The Direction of the play was bad. It felt like the actors were just doing what they wanted. The deliverince of the lines was emotionless and talentless.The only characters who actually had something was his "conscience" "Aunt lizzy"and the character "madge".They could act and remember their lines. Casting wise it was terrible. The lead couldnt act, he was like wood.There was points where lines were forgotten they just stood there not knowing what to do. At one point bluntly asking for their lines. The story itself was hard to follow. If you hadnt read the play you would be lost. Full stop.

I was expecting more, but I was left with less.

Lunch

2007-03-14T05:46:00.000-07:00

Just a half hour ago i was caught in a conversation with a friend of mine on our way home. Although hes sound as chips, he doesnt seem to realise the problem he has. Nearly 80% of the English language spoken from that mans mouth is 100% grade A Fertilizer.

He should be a lawyer, because the tsunami of shit that comes out of this mans mouth is only second to a german sheisse orgy. Outside I was calm and collected, but inside i was screaming and my brain felt like it was trying to escape this madness. The sound of his voice and constant "GUFFAW"'s almost drove me homicidal. I would have done him there and then in the street.

The walk felt like it lasted years, but in reality on mere minutes. By the time I could see my house I broke into a kind of dash for the door. The poor bastard didnt even realise the torment I was in from his constant babbling. I waved a goodbye and ran to the door. pushed the doorbell. No answer. damn! Luckily he was oblivious to this and moved along home. This is unquantifiable proof that there is a god, and he likes me. Another minute with that man would have pushed me over the edge.

Tonight, im attending the play "Philedelphia, here i come" . I might just write up how it was later on tonight. I just hope it was better than their last production, "west side story".

Day of Infamy

2007-03-13T12:37:00.000-07:00

Gadzooks man!

4 Days until mass intoxication. The thought of it makes me almost taste the tuborg that will turn me into an animal. During the day we drink and in the dusk we hobble around like uncontrolable zombies, moving toward the sound of bar music. Yes, paddys day is only around the bend. One hell of a bender.

Theres that mass delusion that he wants us to get hammered in his name. We all know its not true, but we force ourselves to believe the only think that will make sense in those precious 24 hours. Alcohol, our only true saviour. Im sure all the n00b bartenders and getting the brief, to learn how to handle their taps, take orders over the roar of parched patrons all screaming for the cure too their illness and serve their country. America has its wars and its heroes, Ireland has its Bars and its bartenders. Nothing, and I mean nothing, can be more chaotic than a popular bar on St patricks day.

My plans for the occasion are uncertain, and theres a chance I wont come back. But I can assure you that when I say that if I take any shots (On occasion I love Vodka and its been awhile ), and I live to tell the tale, ill write up my exploits here.

There comes a time in every mans life where he must reach his full potential. To go to physical extremes and surpass their possibilty.To boldly go where no man has gone before. My mission is simple.

Im joining a Gym. Im getting fit.

Oh yes. Its time. My saggy man titties must wave goodbye and my gut say its prayers cause im going for gold.Me and my always classy friend, Mark ,are going to work out. But the questions remains. Can we well and truely push it to the LIMIT?

Only time can tell friends. But the next picture you see of me wont look like the marshmello man. No sir. You'll see a striking strapping young lad. Someone to look up too. A greek god. A Leader. A Warren.

May God have mercy on us all.

300

2007-03-06T09:38:00.000-08:00

With 300 fast approaching and the first reviews out it lookes like I was right in saying that it would be a classic. IGN just posted a review (10/10) where its quoted as a masterpiece and "It's truly difficult to resist making epic proclamations about a filmmaker's career after watching something like 300." Goes to show that a comic book movie can surpass the horrible filmaking it usually gets.

There are a good few geek movies coming out this year. Spiderman 3, Transformers, Halloween,Die hard 4, TMNT, Smoking aces, Zodiac to name only a few. We'll leave Ghostrider out of it since that isnt really a movie, but just a really long music video with a "Look I can still play a twenty year old" Nicholas Cage. With 300 just getting a really good review then my hopes of seeing just as good or better than expected in these is up +100.

One of these is Transformers. more than meets the fucking eye. When this movie was announced I had to bring a towel with me everywhere cause just thinking about it made me cream.I had fears of this turning to shit and my childhood fantasy ruined but fuck it, its Optimus Prime time baby, and ill be there, front row centre. Same goes for Die hard 4 and the fact that Venom will be in spidey 3. Sure, they might not win any oscars, but who gives a fuck? Once they're not absolutely god awful like Fantastic Four. I can only hope.

But it looks like the guy who just directed 300 is directing Watchmen. If you know what that means you might wanna get a towel. Now.
