John Carter and Mass Effect 3

So this past weekend I went to see John Carter. The entire movie was actually pretty well done for a Disney PG-13 title and I have no regrets. Would even recommend it to other friends. Good acting as well, especially from Willem Dafoe.

It has been getting a lot of backlash cause of the price the film cost to make and the fact it was PG13. I do not know what planet these parents are from when they take their 5 year old to a PG13 movie then complain about it being to violent and having a couple curse words. Seems like they saw the big "DISNEY" sign on the poster and didn't even look at the rating. When the girlfriend and I were watching it there were at least 3 small children down the aisle from us (sad face).

Overall this movie is two thumbs up. Granted I only judge movies on a scale of two, Good or Bad and this movie is definitely good.

Next up I got Mass Effect 3 the day it released. Finished it yesterday evening on insanity hardness my first time through. The entire game was amazingly well done and pulled at your heart quite often. They made the story more engrossing and you had a sense of hurry while playing since you knew the Reapers were destroying the galaxy.

My ownly qualm with the game was the ending (at first). Everything was fine up till then and I was boggled by it. I had the best possible ending I assume since I had my readiness for the final fight over 6000 and had played the multiplayer enough to have all systems 100%. After thinking long and hard about the ending I am not super disappointed in it since I have my own theory. The first few hours after beating it though I was basically scratching my head asking myself if that really was "IT" for the series.

When thinking about ME3 story wise I feel kinda sad cause my adventure with "Shaw Shepard" is over. Have had that character since ME1 and have grown quite attached to him. I will look back on the ME series with Shepard as one of the best.
