So it has been quite a while since my last post, but I believe it was time to tell you all about a milestone I'm experiencing. Final Fantasy XIII-2 recently came out and I had to sit and think about if for a while... I just don't care anymore. Now, those who know me might be shocked at that statement, but Final Fantasy has just gotten so far off the beaten path that it's almost unrecognizable

I can always find a lot of good things to say about almost any movie (with the exception of Valkyrie that is), and that I am by no means a "critic", and that's why most people don't really respect or listen

As a child of the 80's, I'm really looking forward to this! Looks to be pretty good. And HELLO! Is that a Back to the Future poster in the background I see? I believe it is! Which reminds me, I still haven't posted my review of the new BTTF game yet! Oops!

Holy crap this looks cool! I super loved the original Kirby games. They were just stupid fun. Now, I never did get around to playing Kirby Epic Yarn, mostly because it just looked wrong, but this.. THIS is Kirby! Did you see him sucking up all those enemies and blocks?!?! BADASS!! I think this will be a must buy. What do you guys think?!?!

Yup! They are coming back! And so far, it looks promising! The new Thunder Cats is being produced by Japanese studios Studio 4°C through Warner Brothers. I'm excited to see this succeed because I was an avid fan of the original cartoon. I think it had a great story and artwork (originally done by Rankin & Bass studio). If they do it right, this could really blow up, and maybe even bring

I haven't been this excited for a movie since Scott Pilgrim! This looks totally badass in all aspects. And it has Jamie Chung whom I adore! It also stars Vanessa Hudgens. But What I really like is that there aren't a lot of BIG stars in this. Those movies seem to really do well with me. Not like that ANNIE remake that Will Smith had to make for his kid Willow.. UGH!!!

Was anyone else aware of a new My Little Pony? Now I never.. uhh.. ahem.. watched the original cartoon, and this new cartoon is WAY more cutsie, but I do like the style. Something about the "Power Puff Girls" style that I like about it. Oh wait, it was developed by Lauren Faust who WORKED on Power Puff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, the two shows created by her husband Craig

Yeeeaahhhh.. so one of my vices is that I loooove terrible Japanese movies. Usually they are horror movies, but once in a while I'll stray to other genres. So I picked I Was a Teenage Ninja in my Netflix and got it the other day and decided to plop down and actually watch it. Yeeeaahhhh.. even for a BAD movie.. this was BAAAAAD with a capital WTF!

A while ago I posted about this product that I randomly found on the internet. Sounded interesting to me so I figured I'd write about it a bit so I did. Well a couple days ago I was at the Depot in South Haven and they had a bottle of it just sitting out there for anyone to grab! It looks like a pretty high-quality bottle and the attendant there said that it compares to Kahlua. At around $22

Our first trailer for Thor has surfaced over at Yahoo movies. I'm not too sure about this one. The feel seems right and the effects look pretty refined.. but I gotta say.. some of those costumes for the gods.. yeah, not too sure about that. It's one of the reasons I didn't really enjoy the X-Men movies. Here's to hopin'!

With all the movie reboots coming out nowadays, it's no surprise to see the video game industry also jump on that bandwagon. Tomb Raider is a series that has desperately needed a bit of a face lift. And that's just what she is getting. This will be the first major Tomb Raider game since Square/Enix took over Crystal Dynamic. It will be nice to see what Square can contribute to molding a new

Saw Paranormal Activity last night finally. There has been a lot of hype surrounding this movie for sure! I was really excited to go check this out for myself and see if it was as good as they made it out to be. First, there were nothing but badass trailers before the movie started! 2012, Daybreakers, Shutter Island and the Road. I think maybe one other that was good but I can't remember.

I work in advertising so when I see new an unique ways to get messages across, it always gets my attention. I was searching around the other day for things to write about, when I found this little website. They really have a great idea for getting people talking and getting messages across. This website is themed around sending a message to kids what kind of impact doing drugs has on their

Being 30 (at the time of this post), I can be considered "old-school" when it comes to video games and cartoons and the like. I definitely remember spending countless hours at the bowling alley plugging quarter after quarter into many arcade games. One of which was, of course, Donkey Kong. Then, of course, the Nintendo came out and with it came home versions of our favorite arcade classics

I was pretty eagerly awaiting Resistance 2 for my PS3 because it really looked like a solid shooter. Now I myself am not a big fan of FPS (first person shooters), but with the graphics of the game and not having played one in so many years, I wanted to see how far FPS games have come. Obviously I haven't played Resistance: Fall of Man, which is the predecessor to Resistance 2, but I got the

I had a chance to test this phone out a while ago and really enjoyed it. A lot of nice features on this phone made me not want to give it back so easily! If you have ever handles a Blackberry phone, you will realize that they are slightly larger than your everyday phone. Compared to my Sidekick Slide, which is, in itself larger than a normal phone, the Blackberry Storm was even slightly

Saw this on the 15th, not the 13th. Didn't know what to expect because, if I did even watch the original, I don't remember it! I know my parents never allowed me to watch that type of stuff so I never knew what I was missing. That being said, I never looked for these types of movies when I finally moved out of my parents house. But my first roommate in college was kind enough to trot down

I've been a fan of both Star Wars and Star Trek for as long as I can remember, but to be honest, I am more of a Star Trek fan. I have fond memories of watching all the Star Trek movies on VHS when I lived at home. It was always exciting when a new movie would come out in the theater and then getting it on video. Although, the fourth movie was starting to get on my nerves a bit because it was

Yourfonts.com is a website that would allow you to create and use your own handwriting as an everyday font! It's extremely easy to use and with minimal adjusting, can be used with astounding results. You will need a computer, printer, decent pen (have found that to get maximum results, to use a fine, felt tipped pen), a scanner and a steady hand (doesn't hurt to have nice handwriting either!)

Being a big fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Joss Whedon and Eliza Dushku, I was really anticipating seeing Mr. Whedon's new TV show, Dollhouse. With remote in hand and a comfy recliner, I settled in and prepared myself for what I was hoping would be another knockout by Joss and Eliza. But, to be fair, I think I will have to see what is going to happen next week to form an educated opinion.

Ticket? Check. 3D glasses? Check. Refreshing beverage? Check. Annoying people behind me complaining about how they hate 3D? Sigh, check. With my cell phone in hand, I was updating my Facebook ever so often to let everyone know that I was on my way to the theater, getting my ticket, watching the previews and of course amazed when it was over. Needless to say, I was excited for this film.

I was pleased this morning to see a new trailer on the internet with new footage and featuring the new song "Rule" by my personal favorite J-pop artist, Ayumi Hamasaki. I've been trying not to post TOO much Dragonball information here because this is not a Dragonball blog, but I am just too geeked about this movie to not talk about it a little bit. The first video is the new trailer, and the

I've been playing this game for a while now and I'm pretty addicted! Many a weekend have been spent exploring and exploding the city of Liberty. I've played most of the past incarnations of this game. GTA through GRA San Andreas, and I think that this one really tops the chart. The graphics aren't mind blowing, but they are constant throughout the game so that there is no back and forth

I collect a lot of different toys and whatnot that remind me of my childhood. I have kept a lot of different toys that I have had throughout my youth (except for the ones my mom so graciously threw out). Most of the toys I collect now are pretty new and more for show or collecting than opening up and displaying. My co-workers are aware of this, so any time they come across something they

I have mentioned this site a few times here on my blog, but I haven't really gone in depth about it too much. Although I did write about how Zazzle now has skateboards that you can design! So what Zazzle boils down to, is a website that you can upload pictures and images and graphics to, and have said images and whatnot printed on a variety of items. These items include shirts (all kinds),

TIM BURTON! Yay Tim Burton! Ok, I got that out of my system. If you can't tell, I really enjoy Tim Burton.. well... everything! I can still remember back in grade school watching Frankenweenie on the reel-to-reel during movie Friday. The more I saw of his work, the more I wanted to see! Batman, Edward Scissor Hands, Beetlejuice... the list goes on and on. So, I was on the Apple website

I've always been a big Jim Carrey fan, even when people didn't like him or thought he was over the top. He is just one of those actors that always stood out to me among all the "cookie-cutter" Hollywood actors out there. "Ace Venture", "Liar, Liar", "Eternal Sunshine...", the list goes on of excellent movies Carrey has been a part of. "Yes Man" is another winner for Carry in my book. At

I got to sneak in 2 movies on Christmas day (Happy Christmas by the way).  The first of which was Bedtime Stories. I've always been a big fan of Adam Sandler.  I was hooked the first time I saw Billy Madison.  He just reminds me of what I'd be like if I were to be in a movie.  I haven't seen Zohan yet, but I will...  But when I saw the preview for Bedtime Stories, I was a little skeptical.  It

LG Voyager, Dare Originally uploaded by butterstud I hate talking to people on the phone, I really do. That's why I hate cell phones so much. If you have a cell phone, you almost have a 'duty' to talk to whoever calls you. If you don't, you have to explain WHY you didn't answer... "I left it at home, the battery was dying, I was on the other line..." Thankfully though, cell phones have

That, and the fact that they added on the subtitle "Evolution" to the movie. Not sure what that's all about, but hey, it's Hollywood! They also released 4 movie posters (which can be seen by click on the picture shown

Unfortunately I was somewhat forced into watching it at my local, hometown theater, which has seen better days. Let's just say it has been there a LONG time. That being said, the movie wasn't on a nice, digital screen that I have come to love

SawV Originally uploaded by butterstud I'm a little late on this, but I thought I should probably still write about it. I've been a fan of the Saw movies since the first one came out. It was something new and abstract and fresh in my opinion.

Igor Originally uploaded by butterstud It's been a while since i've posted anything! Haven't been doing much and i've been on vacation, but I did manage to get to the theater this weekend and catch the animated movie Igor. I'll start at the end credits if I may. I was very surprised at the list of big names to lend their voice talents to this film! Names such as Jon Cusack (already knew

Originally uploaded by butterstud My favorite time of the year: HALLOWEEN! Every year I try to find new and exciting Haunted Houses or corn mazes to visit around the area. I do many searches online but usually find the same old thing. I have since found an amazing database for finding what I am looking for. HauntWorld.com has a great searchable database for Haunted Houses, Pumpkin Patches

therocker Originally uploaded by butterstud Was treated to The Rocker Sunday night. Was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't too eager to catch this movie in the theater, but partner in crime for the day wanted to catch it, so we did. I haven't seen much of the Office and therefore haven't seen much of Rainn Wilson's performances, but he dominated the screen in The Rocker. I was surprised to

PS3 Originally uploaded by butterstud So I finally broke down and got my PS3 over the weekend and I couldn't be happier! I picked up the 80 gig Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots special edition. Awesome! Click on the picture to follow the "un-boxing". Aside from the awesome graphics and FREE online play, it also has video streaming capabilities through wi-fi. I can connect to a

pingpongplaya Originally uploaded by butterstud I came across this movie the other day while checking for new releases. I enjoyed Balls of Fury and this looks like it might give it a run for its money. C-Dub must help run his mom’s ping-pong class to help out the family. The trailer looks like it should be a pretty funny movie. The movie is rated PG-13 and opens September 5 in limited

Mirrors Originally uploaded by butterstud I got a chance to get out to the movies this weekend and catch Mirrors with Jack Bauer.. errr I mean Ben Carson (Kiefer Sutherland). I probably would be able to review this movie a little better if it hadn't been for the entire theatre chatting like a barn full of hens, but what can ya do? The usher said, and I quote "when the entire theatre is

PotterPuppetPals.jpg Originally uploaded by butterstud So I guess Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince that was due to be released this winter, has been pushed back to July of 2009. Almost an entire year! WB is stating that the 'writers strike' has something to do with it, along with the fact that being released in the summer is better for sales, blah blah blah. FAIL!

I was checking out all the used CD's and DVD's that they have, when I noticed that under the tables they had LP's (or records to some of you). The first thing I saw stood out like a sore proton pack.

Whether you're a snowboarder, raver, or just want to be one of the cool kids, you might want to check out these Solis performance eyewear. Even the non-goggles look pretty sweet and at a decent price too. Now, I'm not TOO into the

Chef Originally uploaded by butterstud Another loss has tugged at my little heartstrings over this weekend. Isaac Hayes passed on this past Sunday at his home in Memphis, Tennessee. Of course my fondest memories of Mr. Hayes has to be his role in South Park as the lovable Chef. Up until around season 9, when he left because of difficulties between himself and the writers over the episode

Well I was checking out Sideshow Toys again today and lo and behold, there are not one, not two, but THREE new figures available!

Originally uploaded by butterstud Have you ever heard a sarcastic applause? Well I did last night. When the X-Files first came out many moons ago, I was all over it. Mulder and Scully were my heroes! Mulder's dry humor and Scully.. being Scully. I have always been into sci-fi shows and movies, so of course X-Files fit right in there. So back to the movie. I went into the theater last

Photoshop Lady Originally uploaded by butterstud If you are a graphic designer of any type,  you might find this useful. I often find myself struggling to come up with new and interesting ways to create more visually attractive images and graphics.  I did attend art school for a few years, but that was quite a while ago (mac os 8 anyone?).  That being said, the internet was still pretty

WaterClock Originally uploaded by butterstud The other day, through my many interweb travels, came across this site and found a nifty little gadget. I've always been a fan of water powered items and this clock fits the bill nicely. Now i'm just waiting for my water powered car? At a nice $16 and with 4 colors to choose from (clear, blue, green and orange) it could be a nice "give and get"

Buffy Originally uploaded by butterstud This figure was actually delivered to me quite a while ago, I just haven't gotten around to writing about it. This figure is AWESOME! I love the look and the style! It's simply amazing to see in person. I first saw this figure when I was browsing a website and there was a side banner ad for Sideshow Collectibles with a picture of this figure on it.

IMGP0043.JPG Originally uploaded by butterstud This is the Hellboy figure I got with the 2 DVD set of animated movies. I wasn't planning on picking up the DVD's in the first place, but after seeing the set with the figure (and for only $20 to boot) I was helpless against it's powers. I haven't finished watching the DVD's yet, and I will surely write about them, but i'm pretty impressed with

Hancock Originally uploaded by butterstud Well.. what to say about Hancock... Fun movie. Bottom line, fun movie. I've heard this a lot and I did tend to agree (especially after the second time seeing it), that the first half is better than the second half. The first half of the movie we see Smith being a rude, drunk, haphazard superhero, which is what I wanted to see. It was fun and

Wanted Originally uploaded by butterstud AWESOME MOVIE! I wasn't TOO pumped to see this movie when it first came out.  The trailers did look pretty sweet and I knew I 'wanted' to go see it, but it didn't strike me as a must go see. So when I finally went, I was pretty blown away.  Lots of good action and comedy kept me glued to the screen (and I admit, so did Angelina Jolie).  With that
