EPISODE 3

All i have to say is DAMN. Anyone who even attempts to talk bad about this movie needs to have their head examined. Awesome from start to finish and the opening scene was one for the record books. I was also suprised at the amount of people in the theater. there was only about 40 people in there watching the movie when i did...I highly recommend this to anyone.

Thought of Today

Went and picked up my Episode 3 tickets today and was i suprised to find out that the only show sold out was the very first showing (Midnight). I figured that because i waited until 3 days before it opened that i would get screwed into watching a midafternoon or early morning show. to my suprise i was still able to pick my time to see the most anticipated movie ever (in my opinion).

Another random thought.....As I go on in my day to day life i am astonished by the amount of people that i come across that will go out of their way to do nothing for anyone else without expecting or in some cases demanding something in return and i cant help but wonder where the fate of man is headed when we expect immediate satisfaction for the things we do. Thomas Edison once wrote "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. "

CKY

I just got through listening to the new single "Familiar Realm" off of their new album "An Answer Can Be Found". If the Album is as good as the first single then boy are the CKY fans in for a treat. I am still listening to it on loop in media player as i am writing this. Definetly appears that Chad, Deron, and Jess got their shit together on this one. Not that i was disappointed with any of their other albums. as a matter of fact i have Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild in my car and 99% of the time i listen to it instead of the radio. That is one of the few albums i have where i can listen to it from the first track to the last without having to skip any along the way. anyway i am eagerly awaiting june 28th and until then i suppose i will have to leave familiar realm on loop...............

Ignorance of the day

I have decided that I need somewhere to post my thoughts on the stupidity that I run across everyday and this is it...........

I suppose a little about me is in order to understand where my first witness to an act of ignorance is coming from. I have been an avid console gamer since the Atari and have played on all systems along the way and know that each system had its greatnesses and its pitfalls. But nothing gets to me more that the people who are supposed to report on the upcoming consoles are so "pro-Nintendo" "pro-Microsoft" "pro-Sony" etc etc etc that when the competition comes out with a new console that they begin to "dis" the thing before anyone gets a chance to put their hands on it. Case in point the "Xbox 360" and "Playstation 3" are scheduled to be unveiled at E3 (I know Microsoft is "supposedly" to unveil the 360 on MTV this Thursday and Sony will debut the Playstation 3 shortly thereafter..But we will not get to see a full demonstration until E3) and people who have the "spec" sheets say that the Playstation 3 will have 3 times the CPU as the xbox 360 but that Sony will have a lot of extra "horsepower" under the PS3’s hood that’s mainly for show, not actual gaming. What kind of idiot do you have to be to believe that.... Even if it takes another 2-3 years for game developers to get the full potential unlocked out of the PS3 it still will all be put to use. And as for it being 3 times faster than the xbox I seriously doubt that one. Do you mean to tell me that the people at microsoft are going to sit idly by while Sony builds its cell processor and not have something up their collective sleeves to fight back with. I think not. I personally think that both systems will respectively "KICK ASS"and should be put into the consumers hands and let them decide which is going to have the "horsepower" and which will fall by the wayside. But affording them on the other hand..................
