Blogging Been a long time since i've made a blog post, but it's been so hectic I haven't really had time to compose a blog, so it's about time for my first 2008 blog post :) Movies Recently i've bought a few Jackie Chan movies (Love the comedy included in his movies and the amazing stunts performed), haven't seen them in ages and there hasn't been any on TV for a long time. My collection of DVD's now has the following added: - Mr Nice Guy - Rush Hour - Rush Hour 2 - The Medallion - Who Am I? - Gorgeous Thinking about having a marathon night some time of the Jackie Chan movies, will be a great comical and martial arts night :D Games In other news... Looking forward to the next installment of the popular Dawn of war series, with the release of Soulstorm next month ( 6th of march), adding two new teams (Sisters of battle & Dark Elder), a few new units for existing teams, new upgrades and excellent single player experiance fighting across multiple planets and moons :D [Any questions about my user name can be referred to my first blog entry :P: My first blog (ever) ...] C&C - Red Alert 3 has been announce. Big fan of the C&C series when it was made by Westwood (Along with Frank Klepacki's music), but i'm not sure that EA will make a quality game, but time will tell :) Oddly, I still enjoy playing Red Alert (1) to this day, even though the graphics are nothing compared to those of today, though i've always found the gameplay to be excellent and enjoy the music as previously mentioned.

Went around to a friends place last Saturday and watched some movies. Was very nice watching the movies on a big screen rear projection TV (Forgot the size of it, but its large), with a 5:1 sound setup + amplifier, placed around the seating area. The night lasted a while, with a total of 3 movies: Transformers The Longest Yard Rambo 3 The last one was the only one I hadn't seen before, but it was nice to watch the others again with a good sound system and big screen :D I'm looking forward to the next time my friend hosts a movie night and while on the topic of movies, I bought the special steelback edition of Transformers for both my friend who hosted the night and myself :D Any other FilmSpotters host or go to movie nights at there friends places?

Thought I'd post some thoughts/comments about some trailers of upcoming movies & games. Most are based on the action genre. [Some titles may have been released, depending on your location] :) The trailers are worth checking out if you have the time and are :D Movies The Dark Knight (Batman) A bit of talk in the trailer and not movie clips, disappointing currently. Hoping to see some movie clips of action in the future trailers. National Treasure 2 Looking to be much more action and interesting then the first movie. Looking forward to seeing the movie. Hitman Based on the game hitman, the movie is looking good and keeping themes from the game. Not entirely sure if the actor playing agent 47 will suit the role, but we will see. Resident Evil 3Teaser Third and possibly last in the series, guns and zombies, along with the evil umbrella corporation. Aliens vs. Predator Requiem Looking to be a great horror for the end of the year, far better then the first AVP. Games Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance Looking good, with even more units to cause destruction on a huge scale. Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts Another great game from THQ, 2 new teams and more WW2 combat. World in Conflict One of the biggest releases of the year, with outstanding video clips (FMV's) for between missions and the games intro. Top quality footage. Many more I could of added, but i'll keep the list short for now :) Don't forget you can post comments and find further information about the games or movies on FilmSpot and GameSpot

My first blog on the internet, amazing as i spend many hours per day on the net doing various things, most of which is work. If your wondering about my odd name; i lacked creativity on the day i signed up with a CNET web site, normally i am creative when it comes to things ... Now that i have the name i'll guess i'll stick with it :) If anyone is actually reading this i guess you may be a bit bored while browsing a forum, or wondering why i have such an odd name ;)
