Price Adjustment

Today I received an email from GameStop advertising their Spring Sale where a whole butt load of games were on for ridiculous sale prices (like 90% off). So I figured I'd take a jaunt in there to see what I could see see see. Upon rechecking the email on my phone I discovered that only select titles were 90% off, so my original plan of getting Skyrim was destroyed, but I did see Bioshock 2 in the email list for $4.99 which I figured wasn't a bad deal at all. I've been looking at getting Bioshock Infinite because it looks adequately awesome, so I decide I'd give 2 a play to get me back up to speed on the Bioshock Universe.

Anywho, that's all.

Drum Roll Please

Well folks the deadline is here and the judging shall commence shortly.  In case you are reading this and have absolutely no clue whatsoever as to what I'm talking about, I'll fill you in.  Recently I took part in a 48 hour film challenge and the submission deadline for the whole rest of the festival is today.  I personally don't have anything else to be handing in for it but this means that the judging should be starting within the next day or two here.  On April 9th I should know how my team and I fared, so I will be sure to post the results here, along with a link to the unlocked video on YouTube.  In the meantime check out the poster for the movie.

Cheers.

Film Review - Oz: The Great and Powerful

I am just doing a quick copy/paste job on this one under a new title to keep things uniform since I'll probably do more of these.

So today I saw the new Oz movie with James Franco: Oz, the Great and Powerful. I have to say although it sat a little strangely at first, Franco's over-acting really sold it for me in the end. It was very clear that it was intentional and I don't think he could've done that much of a better job than he did, so good job James Franco, you nailed it! The movie definitely had a few good 3D moments but I actually think the 2D version does it enough justice. Without spoiling anything, I will say the ending makes the whole movie worth it. If you ask me if I recommend it I would say yes, go for it.

Anywho, that does it for the film review post for now, tune in next time for some other movie, possibly Jack the Giant Slayer. Cherio humans.

Back From Outer Space

It's been a few days. I've been away in the mountains for a while, way outside my regular data coverage zone, and I'm just back yesterday, so this is my first opportunity to get back on posting. It was a pretty good trip, and I tell you the beds in the hotel were AMAZING. They were soft and for once sleep was actually a welcome part of the day. Then again the days of walking probably helped tucker me out a bit. I managed to get a supply of Mars Planets from the candy shoppe as well so I'm set for a while in the chocolate department.

Also, I found a sign with a Bruce Willis sticker on it.

There will be more posts to come, probably even later tonight, so stay tuned and stuff, I have a few things to talk about. Toodles.

Follow The Yellow Brick Road

Oh sorry, did I say yellow brick road? I meant snow-white, bumpy, icy, semi-asphalt excuse for a road. I'm off to see the wizard at any rate, the wonderful wizard of the mountains. That's right I'm headed off to Banff for a few days and hopefully get some severe "chillaxing" time in. Maybe it'll be a good time to get some writing done.

Ok that's enough for now. Bye bye now.
