Don’t Starve

Leave a comment

Okay, so I’ve been seeing this game all over the place for a long while now so I decided to sign up for Steam JUST to try it and other games I might find fun. I’m in no way a gamer, of course, but if the game is cute or fun-looking, I wanna try it.

Anyways, Don’t Starve is a game by Klei Entertainment. I like that it was made by an indie company, just because I think it’s cool when good things happen to the little guys of the big corporate world.

Don’t Starve is basically that. Don’t starve. You start off as a character who may have been kidnapped by some weirdo and dropped in the middle of some creepy land filled with all sorts of creatures that want to kill you. The monsters range from walking eyeballs, werepigs, spiders, and more. You’ll even deal with the monsters you see in your head…oooooo. All the while, you should be trying to not die by using your survival skills. You’ll be making outfits using grass, assembling weapons and tools, setting traps for game, and foraging for food.

It’s a very repetitive game that lasts until you die…I think. I don’t know if there’s a way to win this game yet because I keep dying by the stupidest things hahaha. You can play alone or play with people from the internet, depending on the game you buy. The animation and the design of the game is very charming. I love this style of art 🙂

Give it a try, if you get the chance. I’ll try to play it when I can, but I have two strikes against me: a sucky laptop computer and unreliable internet. *sigh* Oh, if only I had all the money in the world………..lmao, I’d probably donate to worthy charities first and buy a house and take care of family–BUT after all that, a kickass, powerful desktop and faster-than-Flash-and-Superman-combined internet. 😉 Yup, yup, that’s the dream………….LMFAO hahahaha. I amuse myself.

Doctor Who Series 9 Trailer

2 Comments

Wow, this was creepy.

Why are so many trailers for the 12th doctor creepy?

Okay, so my first thought on this was why the hell are there so many creepy horror movie monster rejects in this episode?

Was this a trailer for the series premiere episode or for the whole series 9?

Anyways, yes, this was a creepy trailer. The beginning of the trailer’s song really, really reminded me of Thunderstruck from AC/DC. And I feel like the only big thing to come out of the trailer is the appearance of Arya Stark at the end. I’ve never even read or watched Game of Thrones–I’m quite adamant about not doing so–but I will admit that she is my least disliked character of that series, haha. Back to the point, I feel like they’re making her cameo the whole draw or appeal for series 9. Seriously? I’m sure she’s a nice girl and her plot will be hella awesome, but I’m gonna need more than that to be excited for series 9, BBC. Please release more stuff to hook me in 🙂

Is anyone curious about Missy? I thought she was dead, but I guess the Master/Mistress never really dies. This trailer kinda made it seem like she was going to be a semi-companion. The way she stood by Clara made it look that way. I don’t quite like that idea though because she’s the MASTER. She’s supposed to be the enemy of the Doctor, right? Or a very delusional, evil old comrade of the Doctor…

Welp, I’ll be waiting for series 9 to come out this September!

 

P.S.
What happened to Danny? Will he be coming back? That was such a sad storyline.
Also, I heard that they were going to try to make the Doctor funnier? Which is kind of a weird thing to do. Haven’t you already established the Doctor and his persona in series 8? Going back and trying to change him now seems cheap and very weak….just saying….Also, he wasn’t unfunny, so what are they trying to do exactly?

Goosebumps (2015) Movie Trailer

Leave a comment

Hmmmmm……..ooookay.

Goosebumps, if you didn’t already know, was a book series created by R.L. Stine that was pretty popular back in the 90s. The books were of the horror genre, but it was suitable for kids ages 9 and up. The series was so popular that a TV series was also created that featured Goosebump stories. Here’s the opening intro:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC3kue_C35g

Creepy. Love the theme music. Anyways, I used to read a bunch of these as a kid. I don’t remember much of it now, but I do remember being freaked out by these books, haha.

Sony has come out with this trailer that there will be a Goosebumps movie.

The way the trailer starts off kind of reminds me of a typical teen, girl-meets-boy movie. Through out the whole trailer I was expecting more creepiness and some scary stuff….but that never popped up. I know people say that Goosebumps weren’t that scary anyways. It was only kid scary. And I consciously know that! Goosebumps was a horror series, but it wasn’t at the level of Stephen King or the like. However, if you can’t admit that these books were uber creepy, then I don’t think you read the books as a kid, lol.

This trailer didn’t not have the aesthetics or the atmosphere of being creepy. Instead, it felt like this story was inspired by an adventure series or story, like Magic Tree House or  the Spiderwick Chronicles or even Jumanji.

All that being said, the movie looks like it could be enjoyable. I think it’s a nice introduction of an old book series to the new generation and to this decade. I just would’ve liked to see more creepiness and some scare factors. The animated characters/monsters weren’t scary enough or foreboding enough. However, maybe that is the point. Maybe Sony didn’t want it to be too scary so that kids of all ages could watch. So that their parents, who grew up reading these books, could take their kids to watch it and have fun watching a movie based on a book from their childhoods? Who knows.

I’ll be waiting to see how this movie does either way 🙂

Watching Right Now: Felicia Day

Felicia Day Youtube Channel

So I’ve known about Felicia Day for a while (Dr. Horrible and Supernatural, of course XD). But I didn’t know she had all these other things, like her own channel, a twitch account, and a bunch of other stuff.

FeliciaDayFeaturedChannels

Then I watched her on some Supernatural con panels and I just love her personality haha. I definitely want to try to play all the games that she played. I’m not much for gaming, but I might even open a twitch account!

Anyways, I think she’s hilarious and I’m going to try to catch her streams, watch her web series, and uploads.

How The Avengers: Age of Ultron Should Have Ended – Part Two

Leave a comment

I haven’t blogged in a while……due to my lack of motivation, lmao. I actually do have a lot I need to blog about, but I’ve been in this weird funk lately where I’m too tired to even get out of bed. The urge to stay in bed and binge on Netflix has been too strong as of late! Hahaha.

Anyways, I loved HISHE (How It Should Have Ended). I want to try to get into animating like this in the future, but non-animators don’t realize how much is put into these things! The planning, the character parts, the lip-synching, the voices, the script, etc., etc.! Bah! I’m only one person lol. Good on him for his channel!

I love Part Two of this because it has all the references and in-jokes that I thought about when I watched Age of Ultron. I really don’t think Quicksilver is really dead. I’m not sure what to think about Civil War (actually, I’m not sure how I feel about this whole Secret Wars’ destruction of the Marvel Universe either). I think it was silly that Avengers kinda eradicated mutants from their universe…

Still an enjoyable movie,

Reminds me. Look at the LOTR-Marvel crossovers!!!

Pitch Perfect 2

Leave a comment

>>>Spoilers, obviously<<<

It was an enjoyable movie. I definitely liked the first one better, but that’s usually expected when it comes to sequels. I did think that this one may have mirrored the first one a bit too much. I mean, in the first one, a girl projectile vomiting like Linda Blair ruined the Bellas and their reputations and they had to work their way back up to win the competition. In this one, Fat Amy flashes the president her crotch and the Bellas are back down again and suspended. So they have to win the world competition to make a comeback. They have a newbie too.

The songs were fun. I like singing along with them. I thought that storyline was a bit predictable. There was a point in the movie where I kept getting annoyed about why couldn’t the Bellas see that they were all gimmicks and not about singing?? Also, did anyone notice how very stereotypically “german” Das Sound Machine was? Lol. The final competition was disappointing though. I was left wondering if that was it. I thought there’d be more competitions around the world, like a tour, I guess.

Overall, it was an okay comedy with a few laughs. Not much to praise about, but it was still fun.

Jem and the Holograms Trailer

Leave a comment

I never really watched Jem and the Holograms when I was little. I think I mostly watched Care Bears, My Little Pony, and Power Rangers. That being said, I do know enough about Jem to know that this trailer was screwy.

I was out Friday night at the movie theaters to go see Pitch Perfect 2 and was chilling and watching the trailers and previews. This trailer came on and I was like, “Oh, cool, the girl’s name is Jem….is this movie like Hannah Montana or something? It was directed by the same person as that Justin Bieber movie??? What is this? Jem? Synergy??? Is this that 80s cartoon with that pink haired rocker??? WOW! So wrong!”

I literally turned to my friend and said, “They’re making a bastardization of Jem and the Holograms!” Again, I don’t even know the storyline of Jem well, but I know enough to know that it seemed like the only similarities between this movie and the 80s cartoon is the name of some of the characters, the musical world, and Synergy? I don’t even know what Synergy is, but I know that 80s Jem talked to it/her a lot.

I know that a lot of movies nowadays are taking old cartoons and remaking them to fit this day and age, but it’s horrible for two reasons. One, what is wrong with Hollywood these days that they can’t come up with original ideas? Have they grown into complete idiots? Are we in an infinite loop where stories just get repeated over and over again, but with slightly different alteration like bad fan fictions??? And two, if they’re going to remake it, remake it right! I mean, I did enjoy the newest TMNT reincarnation, but I did miss a lot of what the old TMNT movies and cartoons had. The sense of humor. Mikey’s and Raph’s accents. A more plausible origin. *cough* Less Megan Fox. *cough* Lol.

SMH…

Just SMH, y’all…..

Here’s Black Nerd’s take on it and I pretty much agree with him on all the points lol.

Ant-Man (2015) Trailer

Leave a comment

Whenever I see Paul Rudd, all I can think about is Mike Hannigan from Friends, lol! I know he’s been in plenty of movies and stuff since, but I will always see him as Mike Crapbag Hannigan, hahahaha.

I know people have been saying this is the same old superhero formula over and over again, but I don’t think it can be helped. How many other ways are there to introduce a new superhero? There’s been so many overdone cliches and tropes and themes in the comic books. It’ll show when they’ve all come to the big screen as well.

Anyways, the movie seems entertaining, at the very least. I guess I’m glad that went with Scott Lang. I just really don’t like Hank Pym. Seemed douchey to me. That’s why I never got into reading his stories much. Which is why I never knew that the suit could also control ants? Is that right? What really are Ant-man’s powers?

The train scene at the end with Thomas the Tank Engine was hilarious, lol.

Supergirl Trailer

Leave a comment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm46-envrHo

The first thing that surprised me about this show is that it’s going to be on CBS. I guess I was expecting it to be on the CW because the Flash and Green Arrow were on there as well, but okay. We’ll see how that goes.

That trailer was interesting. It kind of reminded me of Devil Wears Prada a bit because of Ally McBeal being a bitchy boss with an overworked, under-appreciated assistant. That is Ally McBeal, right? Haha. She looks really different.

I wonder what this Supergirl’s origin story is going to be. The only Supergirl experience I have is from the 80s movie and that movie scared little kid me, lol. In that one, Supergirl came from like a small, dark, isolated city somewhere or something. This TV show seems to have Kara escaping from Krypton in a similar fashion as Superman, albeit she’s a bit older.

Overall, this seems kinda like a chick flicky TV series. I’d love to try to watch it, if I had a TV. And the trailer did make it seem like it had a good storyline. I think it will just come down to the writing and whether or not, the actress can play a good Supergirl.

Oh, and I’ve already seen so many comments about how flat-chested she is. Well, humongous, Powergirl boobs aren’t exactly realistically, aerodynamic, are they? Lmao. Grow up.

Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens Teaser

Leave a comment

My main thoughts about this trailer revolve around questioning what the story plot will be.

)))SPOILERS…a bit(((

I know that it’s Luke Skywalker most likely talking to his kids, but really! Who’s that girl and dude??? Lol. I’m not as well-versed in the Star Wars universe because I’m a Trekkie/trekker, but I thought Luke and Mara got married, Leia and Han got married, and now their kids’ generation goes through a bunch of drama and a Solo kid goes dark side.

Are these new movies going to go through that?

Hmmm…..I’m so curious! Christmas is so faaarrrr awaaaaayyy….

I guess the best part of this teaser was Han Solo and Chewie, of course 🙂
