Leaving town, Transformers, and Comic reviews

Were leaving town early tommorow morning for Minnesota for a little Convergence and some much needed vacation time in the twin cities. So no updates till next thursday at the earliest.

Just saw Transformers and I got to say I enjoyed it alot. It’s hard to redo a cartoon that has some many fans passionate and you cant help but feel a little bit squeezed when you only have two hours. Overall its fun, it’s big and Optimus is very very cool. If you love explosions, well Michael Bay has plenty of them here and the special effects are phenomenal.

New Warriors #2 keeps the path of secrecy going and looks to become a nice little mystery before it’s all done. The crew knows the history of these characthers and that always goes a long way.

O.k. have a great week. see you later

July Movies

So July’s movies have a very high built in audience as it is. There’s also comedies like I know pronounce you Chuck and Larry that may steal the show but Transformers which is open now will probably be hard to topple right away.

Then on the 14th the juggernaunt tht is Harry Potter comes back to theatres.

Sunshine on July 20th will probably be the least money maker of them all, but it is from the director of Trainspotting and 28 days later Danny Boyle and it looks like a normal Sf movie which we usually dont get anymore in favor of the explosion type spectacle.

Lastly it’s the movie 18 seasons in the making. The Simpsons. On the Big Screen. Everyone will go. Somewhere we will be dissapointed.

Smashing Pumpkins Tarantula

So this video proves what many have known. Smashing Pumpkins are Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin minus James Iha and D’arcy and including a bunch of new people. Still sounds like Pumpkins which leads one to believe all those Corgan wrote all the music anyway rants from the nineties. Anyone else picking up Zeitgest?

trek fest is um




really a small town faire. Its kind of neat that they have the whole star trek thing label on it but really its just a small town fair with nothing much more to it. We only stayed about 1/2 an hour. I did see the future birthplace of Captain Kirk though. It’s behind an alleyway. Someone had taped a picture of Uhura to the back. Funny.
