No. Not until Tarantino wins best director and Inglourious Basterds wins best picture.

Woot! Christoph, you magnificent basterd!

Picked up You've Come A Long Way, Baby a few days ago. Probably going to be the soundtrack of my 2010. Yeah, I'm a bit late to the party. Shut up.

I sincerely hope that Avatar loses every single category it is nominated in. It's a terrible movie, that happened to look good. It was boring as hell, had only okayish acting overall, and was way too preachy. Honest to God, when there's a 52' screen filled with explosions and 3D shit pop...

Shit, I didn't know they were coming out with a new one till yesterday.

Now I've got yet another reason to look forward to the 9th...

Has 2.1 or whatever the hell it's called even been released in Japan?

But yeah, really looking forward to getting this on Tuesday or whenever FedEx delivers it.

Huh...so Kaworu does have genitalia...which happens to look like Rei's head. So that's how they're alike.

Nine Inch Nails and Muse fit Evangelion well. Not They Might Be Giants.

Verily I doth concur.

Downward Spiral/The Fragile are like Evangelion in music form.

And Muse has that grand epicness with most of their songs, along with all the references to the end of the world.

Just platinumed Heavy Rain. Trophies aren't a big deal to me but I was so interested that I wanted to see every single outcome. I couldn't stop playing til I'd done everything. There are so many fun little details to catch. The game is absolutely awesome and, I think, an early GOTY cont...

Hell, the DVD menu of EoE is pretty fucking disturbing.

Zombieland

Saw it last night with some friends after spending like an hour at Family Video. It got a little too serious at some points, but it was a lot of fun overall. I have the sneaking suspicion that Tallahassee is Chicago Ted's brother.

Yeah, definitely don't feel the same as I did with Call of Cthulhu . I'll probably have to order The Thing at the Doorstep since I have yet to see it in any bookstores. I assume you've read that one, yes? I certainly hope it's a lot better than the mess this one is turning out to be.

Started my second collection of Lovecraft's short stories...

So far this collection sucks ass, and I have only now seen that this is thought to be the weakest of the three collections by the publisher. Damn.

Guess I'll slog through it anyway.

I had been playing Half-Life 2 a lot, and one day I was walking down the street, saw something of interest and attempted to zoom in on the object.

Eh...Force Unleashed was disappointing since you don't really ever feel like a complete bad ass. I refuse to believe that if you can pull a star destroyer from the sky, you can't force push a goddamn dark trooper prototype. I just gotta ask, when you get Heavy Rain, will you be a cruel god, ...

Sorry for the sorta necrobump, but yeah Eva Monkey, if you don't have Heavy Rain yet, get it! Damn good movie/game/hybridthingy. Movement is a bit iffy, but it's really engrossing. Hell, I knew the ending before I started playing, and I still played it all night. MAG is also a lot of fun. He...

Yeah, the only thing is that it only lasts six seconds. Better than nothing, yes, but I don't know how many times it gave out right before I got to cover...and then I was made into a fine paste. And don't make me think of praetorians...I hate them sooooo much already. Definite sense of achie...

MAG is a goddamn commitment. You don't rent that shit, you live it. S.V.E.R. Pride! Also finally got past Purgatory on my Infiltrator/Insanity Shepard. That room before the Warden with the goddamn heavy mech was fucking bullshit. Goddamn Centurions...really should have brought Miranda AND Garrus...

Currently trying Insanity with my Infiltrator.

Goddamn, I will feel a sense of accomplishment when I get everyone out alive in that playthrough.

Beat Bioshock 2. Pretty much the same as the first, but if it ain't broke don't fix it. Good game. Heavy rain coming tuesday or wednesday. I've been waiting for this game for a long time. The demo was alright, but I'm just a little wary about the game. Got it preordered, but I think...
