Hiatus

2010-08-10T08:29:00.004-04:00

I haven't posted in a long long time, probably the longest break since I started this blog. But anyways, since I am currently working 40 hrs/week and finishing up my wedding planning once I get home from said work; there's not really time for blogging. However, my friend reminded me of this very fun website that I found about 5 years ago and I thought it'd be a fun little thing to add to a post. It's called zefrank and there's a lot of little "experiments" and games there that are just really fun to mess around with.

Oh Apple You're So Crazy

2010-05-01T18:01:00.000-04:00

Currently I'm taking a course about product design, so Apple comes up in our class....A LOT, like excessively so sometimes. I understand completely why, but it still gets old after having to hear about how "amazing" Apple is sometimes. Anyway, in class the other day we were talking about whether or not we thought the new iPhone prototype that was found in a bar was accidentally lost or was left there on purpose in order to stir up hype for the new iPhone that's coming out this summer. So I had heard about Gizmodo opening it up and explaining its inner workings. The next day in class some kid mentions how the cops busted down Jason Chen's (of Gizmodo) door after he gave the phone back.

I really thought that this must've been some kind of joke so I looked into it. Turns out it was completely true. You can hear more of the story in this hilarious Jon Stewart video below. He talks about how he thought Apple was so cool and how he found this excessive, which I'm sure everyone can agree with. Jon Stewart had a pretty good point too, that if Apple wants to be mad at anyone, then they should be mad at AT&T for having such crappy service. I mean, Apple was denying that the phone was even theirs at first and Jason Chen gave it back after he was done with it. So what possible reason could they have for busting down his door during dinner? Also, the guy that found the phone originally had "Apple representatives" show up at his house and try to search the premises. If I were him, I'd probably move so Steve Jobs didn't try to kill me with a giant iPad or something lol.

So Much for the Spiderman Reboot

2010-04-01T23:30:00.003-04:00

Apparently Marc Webb fails at being a director already. He decided to choose Lindsay Lohan as the new Mary Jane. I can only imagine who will play Peter Parker. Maybe it will be Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner or just throw in Justin Bieber (seriously hate that little dude and his high-pitched girly voice) just to piss me off. Maybe we can have a twisted romance with Gwen Stacy being played as Miley Cyrus. Seriously, this news has made me lose all faith in any reboots, possibly any superhero movies that contain superheroes I actually like. I really don't know what Webb was thinking considering this was what he had to say about it:

"Lindsay hasn't really been up to much in the past few years — even if you count the straight-to-DVD Labor Pains — but when I think Mary Jane Watson, Lindsay Lohan immediately comes to mind. Well, OK, maybe not the current version. But certainly the Mean Girls/Herbie version. She was available. She needs a reboot worse than this franchise. It just made sense."

Oh wait yes I do. He just picked her because he felt sorry for her sucking and being an alcoholic or something. I'm glad other directors don't just go with people because they're "available". I mean I'll give him the fact that Mean Girls was pretty funny, but I still can't see Cady Heron as being anything like Mary Jane unless he means when she was being a bitchy "plastic". We can only hope that this is a bad April Fools day joke.

woot FFXIII

woohoo! suck it Ps fanboys lol (even though i used to have a Ps2)

Worse than Ryan Reynolds as the Green Lantern

2010-02-24T19:48:00.000-05:00

Apparently there's some rumors going around that John Krasinski has been shortlisted as 1/7 actors to play Captain America. First of all, Captain America is a big muscley dude and and as Michael Scott so eloquently told Jim; "you’re 6”11 and you weigh 90lbs, Gumby has a better body than you". Also Captain America definitely falls short of the top of the snarkiness meter. I mean seriously, he has got to be one of the least witty superheroes in my opinion and I don't want to picture John Krasinski being that boring. It's actually a very similar situation to Ryan Reynolds playing the Green Lantern if you think about it, funny guy being a boring super hero (that's right I think the Green Lantern is boring...and a whiner!). I hope the directors realize that almost everyone that hears John Krasinski's name now, will probably automatically associate him as being Jim first. The movie Away We Go seemed to portray him as a goofy light-hearted guy as well. He's just not a good fit in my opinion, so I hope he turns the role down and leaves it up to the other 6 (Scott Porter, Mike Vogel, Michael Cassidy, Patrick Flueger, Chace Crawford, and Garret Hedlund) actors that Marvel wants to keep on hold for 30 days during the test process (it almost sounds like they're gonna be locked up lol).

Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire Are Full of Lies!

2010-01-31T01:58:00.000-05:00

I'm sure you've heard that Spiderman 4 has been cancelled. It happened on the 11th, just 3 days after Tobey Maguire ensured fans that he was very hopeful for the film and that "It's all a process....It's all happening right now. It's all sort of coming together. It's very exciting to me." I find it completely ridiculous that Tobey would even give the interview about how well the film is coming together and then turn around and be like oh yeah Spiderman 4 is done now, bye! I mean sure, it might not be his fault, but wouldn't you have atleast some kind of inkling that the film was gonna die in 3 days? The good news is that they're trying to reboot it (So hopefully it doesn't suck this time around. I mean seriously wtf is up with webs coming out of his wrists?!?). Personally I hope the reboot goes over well since it's supposed to be Spidey in a highschool setting. I have high prospects for it also because it's rumored to be based on the popular Ultimate Spider-Man comic. Marc Webb (Seriously how perfect is his last name for directing a spiderman film? haha) is the new director. I hope he definitely adds to Spiderman what it actually needs, snarkiness! I'm tired of the half-witted comments of Tobey Maguire. I mean Spiderman is supposed to be sassy and a downright pain in the ass to the super villains he faces (that and occasionally make crossover characters super uncomfortable lol).

The "Jam" Story

2010-01-11T16:04:00.000-05:00

Ok so first off, I haven't updated in like a month which I usually try to avoid. I blame the holidays/my computer getting a virus and the related terrible events that happened because of said virus. But, now that the holidays are over and I'm back at school, I've been looking forward to new tv episodes. Since the latest episode of The Office aired on the 10th of December, I figured they might have a special new years episode or just start airing new episodes a week or so after. Wrong! They aren't airing new episodes until the 21st! I find this to be incredibly bogus. Just because your show is popular and people will wait over a month for new episodes, doesn't mean you should make them wait! I mean just last week ABC showed 3 new episodes of the new Scrubs (which is surprisingly awesome, especially if you liked the old Scrubs) and Better Off Ted (also awesome, seriously Veronica is crazy...in a good way? haha) within 4 days of each other. Anyway, the next episode of The Office is called The Banker, which doesn't particularly seem exciting since everyone that watched the episode on the 10th knows that Scranton branch is safe from being fired.

Today though, The Office twitter announced that "Jim & Pam will experience the birth of their baby in a special two part episode of The Office on March 4 and 11". That's pretty cool, but seeing as how they're hyping it over a month before it's gonna happen, it had better be a good episode. I'm not really sure why it's happening on 2 different days though considering the fact that they were able to get a nice 1-hour slot for the wedding episode. Also, The Office website on NBC has decided to devote an entire mini site to Jim and Pam's story. There's dorky little pictures from each of the parts of their relationship going from "Just Friends" to "The Baby". Most of the site is coming soon still though. It's pretty cheesy if you ask me. But, if it's between girls going googoo over Jim and Pam or Twilight, then I'm all for this dorky little website. Also the pictures from "Just Friends" seem so strange sometimes that they just crack me up (seriously how weird is the picture at the top of this post?).

WoW 3.3 Means More PUGS

2009-12-16T13:53:00.000-05:00

I realize I haven't updated in awhile and I blame that on Thanksgiving and finals. Anyway, WoW patch 3.3 finally came out last Tuesday and there's a bunch of fancy new stuff to play with. First of all, the lfg finder has been seriously upgraded. Now, you simply input whether you're a healer, tank, or dps and it will usually find you a group within a minute. This is because it searches for your fellow PUGmates across servers. It will only group you up with players in your own battlegroup and your own faction of course. Also, to help people out that seriously need to run instances that people hate going to, there's a random instance function. If you're 80 (or slightly below, I'm not really sure what the bottom level cap is), you can pick between random normal and random heroic. This will randomly place you in a PUG inside a random instance. Also, once the group is full; you should be instantly teleported to the inside of the instance. Sometimes it fails (shocker!), but usually clicking the tiny eyeball (lfg button) on your minimap will let you teleport inside after a few tries. This makes it so super lazy people aren't holding up the group by requiring summons. To discourage people from ditching groups that enter certain instances, you get a 15 minute random debuff, which prevents you from queuing up for another random instance until it fades.

You can still pick specific instances, but you won't get the first and subsequent bonuses that you would get by running a random. The first bonus for completing a random normal is 2 emblems of conquest plus some gold. After that, you just get gold for each random normal you do. For a random heroic, the first reward is 2 emblems of frost (the new emblem for better gear) and some gold. After that, you get 2 emblems of conquest and some gold for each random heroic you complete. You still get an emblem of conquest for every boss you kill in a heroic whether it's random or not. This new system does away with the daily heroic quests. Instead, there is a weekly raid quest which you can complete 1 time each week (aduuuuuur), whenever you want.

There are also 3 new 5-man instances and 1 new raid. Basically, you run away from the Lich King through part of Icecrown Citadel with Sylvanas. In the 1st 5-man you will get a quest to unlock the 2nd 5-man, and inside the 2nd 5-man you'll get a quest to unlock the 3rd 5-man instance. These new 5-mans are about as hard as heroic ToC, so don't just queue up if you've run a normal instance before, since normal ToC is about as hard as the original Northrend heroics.

All in all, I'm very impressed with this latest patch. There haven't been too many bugs that I've come across besides the instances filling up (That usually only delayed my instance by like 5 minutes though.) and the new lfg system is pretty amazing (I really don't know why they didn't make it like this in the first place :P). Really, you just need to watch our for noobs that think they are geared enough for the new instances because they are labeled "normal". There is an easy way to deal with this though. You now can simply vote to kick someone, and if it passes; they'll be removed from the group and you can simply requeue to grab another person from lfg. Also, when you enter an instance that has already been started; it will tell you how many bosses have been killed, which is very nice.

Happy Turkey Day!

Final Fantasy XIII will Finally be Here...in March

2009-11-13T19:04:00.000-05:00

Last Friday, Square Enix posted a riddle on their site, "A Henchmen Inventor Tent Unto", which was quickly solved to be "ANNOUNCEMENT NOV THIRTEENTH". The announcement we've been waiting for has finally come. Final Fantasy XIII will be released for the Xbox 360 on March 9, 2010. (You can unlock a special Xbox Live item by doing what it says here!) Below is the announcement video that talks with the creators of the game. Getting past the overly dramatic opening with a guy that reminds me of Mulder (seriously it's almost a full minute of this dude blabbing about how great Final Fantasy is. I mean if we didn't know that, then we probably wouldn't care about the release date anyways.), this video shows some pretty cool new battle scenes. It talks about a new battle thing called Paradigm shift. It happens in the middle of the battle and gives the player real-time control. Personally, I like the idea of real-time battles in comparison to the usual turn-based battles of Final Fantasy.

Also, I'm not really sure why, but Sazh is completely ignored as a main character in this video. They show quite a bit of Fang in the battle scenes, who is also listed in the main characters on the FFXIII site; and mention all the other main characters by name though. I'm really excited that they finally announced the release; and that it isn't around next Christmas, like it could have been.

An Italian Magazine wants Harry Potter to be Super Awkward

2009-11-05T15:51:00.000-05:00

What is it with Europeans and making up weird rumors about movies that can't possibly be true? Anyway an Italian magazine spouted off some rumors about there being an "intimate" scene with Daniel Radcliffe being possibly naked in the Deathly Hallows movie. I'm pretty sure WB doesn't want to get in trouble with every parent (who's gonna let their kid go see the movie even though it might be rated R) by putting a possible sex scene in a movie about highschool-aged kids. I mean I know they think that darker stuff sells, but they're hopefully not that dumb. Anyway Daniel Radcliffe's representatives quickly squashed any rumors of Harry resembling Daniel's more naked self in Equus. When I first heard the rumor, I was trying to figure out how they could possibly put a weird scene with Harry and Ginny together in book 7, before I remembered that Ginny isn't really in the picture until the end of that book. Then I realized that it's supposed to be the scene with the locket Horcrux making images of Harry and Hermione that causes Ron to almost have a mental breakdown. If any piece of clothing was removed during that scene, I know I'd feel super awkward (even though I'm sure there's creepy internet fangirls that want to see it). I'm glad that the movie is trying to remain classy unlike the recent trend of supposedly "popular" book-based movies.

Warning, Incoming Game

2009-10-26T10:51:00.000-04:00

Now if you don't know what this means, then I'm ashamed of you. Reboot was one of the best shows on Toonami from 1994-2001 (it's hard for me to believe that it was really on for 6 years) and was also made by Canadian company Mainframe Entertainment (makers of Beast Wars). All you DBZ fans don't come whining to me here about how it was so good because I will have no sympathy while shooting you down. ReBoot was a CG show about the characters inside a computer and what would happen to them when someone played a video game. The main characters were Bob (Guardian #452), Dot Matrix (who for some reason owns a diner inside the computer), Enzo Matrix (Dot's little brother) and his dog Frisket, Phong (the old philosophical advisor to Bob), AndrAIa (a game sprite that is later Enzo's gf), and Mouse (originally bad and then changes sides to help Dot and Enzo). The main bad guys are Megabyte and Hexadecimal who were as corny as 90's cartoons could make them. This trailer makes me remember how good and bad 90's cartoons could be at the same time. It makes me want to see if Netflix has Reboot on their "Watch it Instantly" list, even though I seriously doubt it.

Since the movie is still in production, there's not too much info I can get about it other than the fact that it's supposed to be a trilogy of films and that it's due to come out in 2010. Also if you want proof that this teaser isn't just a fan-made trailer to get people excited for no reason head over to Rainmaker's site.

Zach Braff Isn't Dead and Neither is Scrubs

2009-10-16T16:31:00.000-04:00

On Monday there was a pretty big internet rumor (originally found here, but now it's gone due to the massive bad publicity) going around that Zach Braff was found dead in his home. Zach Braff decided to clear it up by posting this on his facebook. Turns out the whole thing was supposedly a joke that someone had tried to play on their friends 2 years ago and just hadn't removed from his website. Anyways, somehow the link resurfaced and made crazy news that even made it's way to Zach Braff's mom; which caused Zach to give the creator of this "joke" the douchebag of the day award.

Anyway, putting this prank gone horribly wrong aside, Zach mentioned something very interesting on his video on facebook. He talked about shooting the new Scrubs intro and and this made me confused. I mean everyone knows that Scrubs had it's series finale this year and that it wasn't supposed to be making anymore episodes right? Wrong, turns out Scrubs is headed for it's "9th" season. That is, if you consider the new Scrubs the same show as the old one. The new show is supposed to take a deeper look into the medical campus joined to the hospital (which I'm pretty sure the original show only revealed once during a morbidity and morality conference that Elliot had to present). It centers around 3 new interns that Dr. Cox and Turk are supposed to be teaching. I hope they keep the old new interns as residents now too, since they were pretty good characters imo. According to Wikipedia Eliza Coupe (aka "Joe") will be returning along with the 3 new interns Michael Mosley (aka Drew), Dave Franco (aka Cole), and Kerry Bishé (aka Lucy), who is supposed to be the new narrator of the show. Sadly J.D. and Elliot are only supposed to be in 6 episodes before leaving the show for good. Also the Janitor might not be in the new show either after the opening episode because of his role in The Middle. All in all Scrubs could still be a good show considering they're keeping Turk, Dr. Cox, and supposedly Joe. But, I feel a little like it could start to suck too, like when Eric left That 70's Show.

Andy is All Grown Up

2009-10-11T14:18:00.000-04:00

I meant to post this trailer for Toy Story 3 yesterday, but I'm sick now. The trailer shows that Andy is actually leaving for college now, and so the toys start freaking out. It looks like they get donated to a daycare or something since they are being nommed on by toddlers. I love it when they reset Buzz so that he's not only obnoxious, but also speaks only in Spanish. Overall looks like a good movie to me. I'd post more but like I said, I'm dying.

[Edit: Cinema Blend has removed this video until Monday since Disney whined at them. Not so sure what's so special about it being allowed to be viewed on Monday vs. today but when Disney whines at you, you listen I guess. If you didn't see it I'd advise hunting through Youtube, but I'm sure any videos are going to be deleted almost as soon as their posted. Make sure to come watch it here tomorrow!]

I have seen FFxiii and It is Beautiful!

2009-10-02T16:55:00.000-04:00

Video Games | Final Fantasy XIII | TGS 09: Japanese Trailer HD

XBox 360 | Playstation 3 | Nintendo Wii

This is the newest trailer for Final Fantasy 13 and it's safe to say that the new gameplay shouldn't disappoint. Now, before you watch the video I will tell you this; the girl making out with Snow is not Lightning. I sat there for about 5 minutes trying to figure out why the girl didn't really look completely like Lightning, but still really resembled her in a weird way. Turns out the girl is Lightning's sister Serah Farron, which should cause some good drama seeing as how Serah looks like she's about 12 and Snow looks more like he's 20-30. I guess it could just be that Snow is so tall that he makes Serah look like a child, since she almost looks slightly younger than Vanille when she stands next to her, but it still kinda creeps me out. Serah is also supposed to be kidnapped our something in order to force Snow and Lightning to team up. There's also a new little boy named Hope Estheim who vaguely reminds me of Titus, except he doesn't seem obnoxious (yet, his voice is definitely not as whiney for sure). He also seems to hangout with Lightning, a lot. There's a nice little clip of him yelling at Snow, which ends with Hope exploding (which I hope is him trying to tell Snow to stop being a pedophile by dating Lightning's little sister lol).

The fight scenes just look awesome, especially once things are summoned. Instead of the summons just having their own specials this time around, it looks like the characters can mount up on them and do a combined special. For instance, Lightning has a sort of angel thing that transforms into a pony, and when she mounts up on it she holds some huge scythes up to kill things with as they charge through them. Sazh has some kind of mechanical summon that transforms into somewhat of a dragster. Sadly, it seems like the special of the dragster is to either swing around and hit monsters of just shoot sparks at it from it's back wheels.

As far as the rest of the trailer goes, I wish there was more Vanille, since the most you really get to see of her is when she's captured with Sazh when she's begging Serah for something (also kinda creeped out by that part), and when she's fighting with Sazh about something (I guess there's more of her than I thought, but still not enough imo). The game finally comes out December 17, for all of the people that actually bought a Playstation 3. As far as I can figure out, the release date for the Xbox 360 will be sometime in Spring 2010.

Deadpool Will Have His Day, and His Yellow Bubbles!

2009-09-26T12:26:00.000-04:00

Comic artist Rob Liefeld (the creator of Deadpool) recently posted on his twitter feed that the Deadpool movie is really going to happen. Ryan Reynolds is actually going to return, and this time the fans are getting what they want. Also Rob definitely said there is going to be 4th wall breakage (coining that phrase right now!), so I'm really excited that Wade Wilson will possibly be getting lippy with the audience. I hope they explain why he's Deadpool though and don't just start with him being Deadpool. I feel like a lot of people could be confused as all get out since a lot of them are just bandwagon hoppers (or fans of seeing Wolverine in tight jeans) anyway and I kind've want that :D. I also feel like it would definitely need to be an R-rated film (even though I'm sure dumb parents would still bring their little 8-year-olds because it's a superhero movie, what can it hurt?) if it were to truly envelope the essence that is Deadpool. I mean, he kills hookers for goodness sake!

Happy Hug a Vegetarian Day!

2009-09-25T10:42:00.000-04:00

My sister actually told me that it was today and I just laughed. I'm glad that I don't have classes today with anyone I really know in them, so I can't be attacked. In honor of all the fellow vegetarians out there, I decided to post some more fun stuff. This shirt is especially appropriate for today. I found these fun/scary banners (their own banner is particularly scary imo) at Peta2, which is much less scary than the normal Peta site.

There's this cute "I'm not a burger" shirt from the Zen Shop. This cow shirt is also amusing since it reminds of me Finding Nemo lol. I love this set of tomato stuff because he's just so cute. I also kinda wonder if this actually says vegetarian or if it really says something else (like I'm sure so many asian script tattoos say idiot instead of peace lol). This tofu makes me so happy too. I find these tiny stuffed broccolis to be disturbing and cute at the same time lol. This site lists a bunch of cool stuff like the veggie of the month (which is carrot btw), games, and hilarious cannibalistic veggies. I advise you to create your own veggie alien, since it's like a more fun version of Mr. Potato head. The veggie version of space invaders is also pretty entertaining. Enjoy the rest of Hug a Veggie day!

Ahoy, Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!

2009-09-19T11:11:00.000-04:00

In the spirit of National Talk Like a Pirate Day I decided to post some fun piratey stuff! First up is this terrifying pirate cat accessory if you will. It definitely looks like it's dying and I'm not really sure why you would want to add this to a great pirate costume but the mustache (atleast I think it's a stache) kills me. Next up is this adorable cat pirate costume. I found it on Good Housekeeping's "Most Popular Pet Halloween Costumes" and it's definitely one of the best. Next is this Pirate name converter that I used myself. I am Epileptic Marie Barbossa :D. I also took a pirate personality quiz and got this for a result :D.

You are The Quartermaster

You, me hearty, are a woman of action! And what action it is! Gruesome,
awful, delightful action. You mete out punishment to friend and foe alike
– well, mostly to foe, because your burning inner rage isn’t
likely to draw you a whole lot of the former. Still, though you may be
what today is called “high maintenance” and in the past was
called “bat-shit crazy,” the crew likes to have you around
because in a pinch your maniacal combat prowess may be the only thing
that saves them from Jack Ketch. When not in a pinch, the rest of the
crew will goad you into berserker mode because it’s just kind of
fun to watch. So you provide a double service – doling out discipline
AND entertainment.

You can also find a bunch of nifty pirate shirts here. I think this bag and this shirt are pretty great. Also, I don't skate but this deck is super cute. There's this great mousepad too! That's all for now, but if you play WoW make sure you hope online today to see the fun pirate stuff they're having.

Edit: If you have a Facebook then I highly suggest changing your language to Pirate. You can find out how to do it here. It is highly entertaining and I'm thinking about making it my permanent language setting.

Jungle Jim's Trip

2009-09-07T18:18:00.000-04:00

I mentioned awhile back about how I wanted to go to Jungle Jim's grocery store. Now that I finally got to go I wanted to show all the nifty stuff I saw there. The Irn Bru is from Scottland and I actually drank it before. It's a bubble-gumy flavored pop that strangely bright orange. It's supposed to be a good hangover cure which I think is hilarious. You can also see the scary fish eggs in a tube that they sell there. The pop flavored BBQ sauce and marinades just scare me. Who would want to have rootbeer or Dr. Pepper flavored ribs? They also sell do-it-yourself Boba Tea kits there. I thought they were pretty cool, but I don't like Boba tea enough to buy a kit. I'm more of a fan of the jelly anyway. They also had a nice selection of asian cookies/candies as well as Agar Agar, which turned out to be a sort of jell-o made from seaweed.

Marvel fans should be weeping!

2009-08-31T22:07:00.000-04:00

The big news today is that Disney plans on buying Marvel for 4 billion dollars. Some people say that Marvel fans should be rejoicing since this will get Marvel out into the general market. I am saying no way! Think about the good it did Transformers by using Shia Labeouf (former Disney teen in case you never watched Even Stevens). There's so many people jumping on the Transformers bandwagon now that it's ridiculous. I can only imagine how many people would jump on the Marvel bandwagon once Disney vouched for it. I'd think that a lot of people would start reading comic books and this could be good and bad. It could be good since higher sales would hopefully mean more and better comics. It could also be terribly bad since writers might get complacent and not have as high quality comics since so many bandwagon readers wouldn't demand it. Also some Marvel characters just aren't "Disney friendly," such as Stacy X. I mean come on she can manipulate pheromones, which enables her to be the biggest whore ever.

Hopefully if this deal goes down it will be a good thing for Marvel. I can imagine a sweet animated Marvel film and get really excited. But, I can also imagine them trying to squeeze Miley Cyrus or Ashley Tisdale into roles that they really don't belong in or even deserve to be considered for.

Apparently Goyle wanted some attention

2009-08-27T16:04:00.000-04:00

The actor who plays Goyle in the Harry Potter films, Joshua Herdman; spilled some news about the last 2 Harry Potter movies. He says that the first part of the Deathly Hallows will end right after Harry, Ron, and Hermione get caught by the snatchers after just being reunited with Ron. The second part is supposed to start off with them inside Malfoy Manor. The seems like a really good breaking point to me. It will be really suspenseful for the people who have no clue what's going on.

I must reiterate the fact that Dobby needs to be in this movie though. If not, then Harry and the whole gang shouldn't be able to escape from the Malfoy's. I really don't understand why they cut him from the 4th movie and had Neville give Harry the gillyweed instead. Were they really just being so lazy because they didn't want to c.g. another character into the movie? Also, Bill and Fleur need to get married because otherwise Harry and the rest of them will have no where to go to hide. But, I'm not really sure where they will have the wedding seeing as how the Weasley's house got burned down in the last movie. I'm interested to see how David Yates is going to fix what he screwed up.

Another thing that is interesting about the last 2 Harry Potter movies is going to be the lack of Crabbe, since his actor Jamie Waylett got arrested for possession of marijuana. This means that Crabbe will either be completely replaced by a different actor (which I highly doubt since they decided not to change anyone out for the last movies, despite their ages) or that Goyle will take his place in the room of requirement. I suppose they could just fill in with some random other Slytherin boy like how they replaced the Creevey brothers with that random Nigel kid.

XBox 360 | Playstation 3 | Nintendo Wii

This is the newest WoW expansion's trailer in case you couldn't figure it out. It's pretty amazing and basically confirms all the rumors I posted earlier. I don't have much to say except for WOOHOO! That and the fact that this expansion makes me think that people will need to have it to continue playing WoW at all. I guess the new continents could just be on different servers, but that seems like it would be very confusing. Anyways, enjoy this awesome trailer. If you're Horde like me, cry yourself to sleep because we get goblins while the Alliance gets the worgen.

Short But Very Sweet (Hopefully)

Recently there's been a big rumor about the details of the upcoming WoW expansion, Cataclysm. First of all, the level cap is supposedly going to be 85. With just 5 new levels it will hopefully take much longer than the Lich King did to level up. Also, there are 2 new races that are supposed to be released in this expansion. The Horde get the goblins and the Alliance get the worgen(this is because of some new Halloween masks being released). I hope this isn't true, because if it is, the Horde are getting the raw end of the deal. Being a wolfy person would be super awesome; and being a goblin would be remarkably less so. The new classes that have already been confirmed from the 3.2.2 test realms are as follows:

Human Hunter
Orc Mage
Night Elf Mage
Dwarf Mage
Blood Elf Warrior
Dwarf Shaman
Undead Hunter
Tauren Paladin
Tauren Priest
Gnome Priest
Troll Druid

The cataclysm that this expansion is named for has pretty much destroyed Azeroth, changing many leveling experiences. Some of these changes include the Barrens being split up into 2 different leveling ranges, flooded zones, Azshara being a low level area, and the possible destruction of Orgimmar since Thrall will be handing over control of it to Garrosh Hellscream. Thrall will be in charge of the Horde and Alliance battle against the Naga and Black Dragonflight. Garrosh is supposed to go crazy and declare open war on the Alliance, so I'm sure this will be a contributing factor to Orgimmar's destruction. Orgimmar will of course be rebuilt during the course of the expansion. Also, because of Garrosh's declaration, there will be many new PvP zones like Wintergrasp.

As far as instances go, Gnomeregan is supposed to have a special significance in this expansion and the Blackrock Spire is supposed to go all splodey as well. Along with these dungeon changes, it is for sure that Onyxia is coming back in patch 3.2.2 in a new level 80 instance as part of a 5 year anniversary celebration. As part of the instance, you can receive a smaller version of Onyxia as an epic flying mount; and as part of their anniversary celebration you can get a free Onyxia whelping pet. Plenty of new instances are rumored to be coming, as well as the return of Ragnaros. Last but not least we should be able to fly in Azeroth in the expansion; which I'm sure everyone agrees will be awesome, except for the lag :P.

Comics are Funsies

Enjoy this comic that I made using stripgenerator.com :D.

Worse than Cher as Catwoman

I Promised Comic Con stuff but something more dire has come to my attention. British newspaper The Globe is trying to say that Miley Cyrus auditioned for Batgirl. I have to say that this is worse than the Cher rumors I mentioned awhile back. According to the British newspaper,(Wasn't it also a crazy British newspaper that announced the Cher news? Yes, yes it was.) Miley showed up in costume and “stunned” the producers by spouting out her self-written lines for the part. I highly doubt that anything coherent could come out of Miley Cyrus' mouth, much less Batgirl lines that would impress Christopher Nolan.
Also, we have to take into consideration that Christopher Nolan doesn't like Robin at all, so there's no reason for him to want a Batgirl unless they're pushing for some sex appeal(and please tell me nobody thinks Miley Cyrus is sexy *shudders*). Besides, if they wanted that then they could just add Catwoman(just not Cher!). Seeing as Gary Oldman announced at Comic Con that Batman 3 starts shooting next year, I'm betting this is just Miley Cyrus'(or probably her dad's) sad attempt at attention. Either that, or it's just another crazy British newspaper. Either way, enjoy this awesome Batgirl picture I found :D.
