Funny: Kevin Smith talks about working on Superman

I was watching the Evening with Kevin Smith DVD, and I thought this passage was pretty funny and interesting. It's sort of long, but yeah...

The punchline about the producer at the very end brings it all together.

ACL

Well, just got the results for my MRI on my jacked up knee and it looks like I've torn my ACL! I'm actually more happy that we at least figured it out, rather than the doctor not having a clue what the problem is. So I'll be out for about 6-8 months from sports activities after surgery...oh well. Like Tim said, it's like I'm an elite athlete now!
Hooray!

10 minutes of Batman: Arkham Asylum

http://kotaku.com/5303348/ten-minutes-of-batman-arkham-asylum---in-polish

It's looking pretty good to me, with the stealth stuff it almost seems like Metal Gear Batman. The brawling looks pretty brutal too. I read that the combat is fairly simple, so I guess it could get old after a while, but for now I'm thinking it's a buy.

USA USA!

Dan, you might find this interesting. Someone translated the lead story from La Gazzetta dello Sport. The largest sports newspaper in Italy. Pretty interesting stuff. The comments from the italian readers of the newspaper are crazy too. Nothing but praise for the us team. Especially Donovan. The article for the US V Italy game praised Donovan like mad and this one continues that... It would be cool to see Landon playing in Italy if some teams decide to pick up on the vibe from these articles.

"Pharaonic USA batters the Egyptians In the end the Americans are the pharaohs. Goal differential has awarded the team of Bob Bradley. Something that no one even took into consideration. Three to nil for Donovan and his companions. A result that even flattered the Egyptians, who were never in the game. Without legs, without heart. The USA, however, put on a show while creating at least eight clear chances. Only the exploits of El Hadary, on the field wearing a turban for a forehead wound, contained the defeat. But the 3-0 brought second place for the USA, who move on to challenge Spain. The European Champions now concentrate on Donovan. The key Zidan wasn’t there. And it showed. Without his offensive power Egypt is another team. Too predictable. Even Aboutrika, another one of Shehata’s talented veterans, was unrecognizable. Egypt was toothless up front and a wreck in the back. Gomaa and Fathi were a couple of statues. The result: the USA went ahead after 22 minutes through Davies, who recovered a dirty ball and fooled the opposing defense. Then it was El Hadary’s turn to invent three miraculous saves. USA unleashed Bob Bradley’s team insisted. At the 7th minute Altidore, unmarked near the penalty spot, took a shot at what seemed to be a sure fire goal, but his conclusion was pushed off the line by Hani Said. The ball struck the chest and then the arm of the defender. Egypt seemed paralyzed. Their attack had only one plan: crosses from the third quarter of the field. Easy pickings for the gigantic DeMerit and Onyewu. It was no match. The Americans doubled their lead at the 19th minute when Bradley, on the fly, adjusted a delicious touch from the unstoppable Donovan. The U.S. coach then played another one of his cards by sending on Feilhaber, an attacker who, against Brazil, made Julio Cesar tremble. And at the 72nd minute Dempsey made it 3-0 with a perfect header. With the defense watching. Immobile. In the afternoon the Egyptian delegation had officially protested against a South African newspaper article that reported a "spicy" evening (ending in theft) involving Shehata’s team in their hotel after the victory against the Azzurri. Maybe it wasn’t so spicy after all. Perhaps just tepid? "

Sorry guys, I just need to vent for a second....




And as always, a picture says 1000 words.


Inglourious Basterds Trailer 2

First time I've heard about it. Cast looks good, however I'm already a little wierded out by Brad Pitt's accent.

New iPhone 3GS


Well, they did it again. However, doesn't seem like an amazing upgrade from first glance. Most impressive features for me include video capture, voice dialing, built in compass (turn by turn directions) and faster speeds, definitely doesn't make me want to upgrade before my two years are up. Also, at the pace they are going, next summer they should have a real upgrade out (It's like iPhone 2.5).

In good news, the current iPhone 3G is now only 99$ while the 3GS will have the same price points the 3G used to have. Good thing I didn't just buy one a few weeks ago after my friend telling me to wait because they will probably announce a new one... oh wait... =p

NEVER!

So i don't know how much you guys paid attention to the Nintendo conference for E3 but this video is based on a podcast making fun of it. Its just fu


Thanks Bing!

Well guys, I just bought my first ever tv! And I used Bing...it was very helpful with the compilation of all the reviews and everything. I definitely noticed the repeats too, just like Tim.
It's a Sony Bravia KDL-46z4100, so 46" LCD tv from Sony. I can't wait for it to get here already, but I've still got like 2 1/2 weeks since I'm getting it off the internet (hopefully not though). Here's a picture:


Totally unrelated; check out this high school picture of Tim I found online:

Decision Making Time

Alright, sorry for the post crazy day, but it's been a while and this is my last gem I have to share with the world. It would be great if you guys really tried this out, and gave critical feedback. Indexing isn't great yet, but there are some great features, new and old.

My top three:
Bing
Bing Shopping
Bing Travel

My Life Choice

Seems a little too much for me, but, let's see what the developers do with this. Also seems a bit late in the 360's life to me. I suppose only time will tell.

Time to pray.



Don't know much else, chainsaw + zombies = awesome, pretty solid formula in my opinion.

Cool New Feature!















http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/darthgreedo/games/

Giant Bomb added a pretty sweet new feature. Essentially it just tracks the acheivements that you've gotten and compares them to other people who have accounts. It then Grades you on your proformance. It also compares acheivements so you can see if you've gotten some tough ones out there. Looks like I've only gotten 10 Rare ones, my favorite is the acheivement for taking a walk in MLB 2k8. Not because i loved the game or anything or that it was super hard, but really just because i find it really funny that almost no one can do what is pretty common in baseball... Draw a freaking Walk! haha.

Even more Fallout?!

http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/983/983990p1.html

Dear God. Even more Fallout 3 content is heading to the xbox. I haven't had a chance to complete the new stuff and probably won't until after the move... The first of the 2 new expansions are supposed to come in JULY! Man, they need to give me some time here. Anyways, I'm really excited to play more fallout now that the XP cap has been lifted. Just have to somehow find the time!
