kick ass review

I saw kick ass and it is the 2nd best movie I have seen so far this year. I would say kick ass is a must see movie for every comic book fan. I would also tell people if you don,t have a sick and twisted sense of humor then stay far away from kick ass. I was hoping the movie would be good but it was better then i thought it be. I was't expecting the movie to be as funny as it was. I laughed my ass off though out the whole movie. This is a movie where i did,t know everything that was going to happen when i walked into the movie theatre. The movie really did surprise me which does't happen often because i usally know everything about the movie because of what i read online. I have to say nic cage gave his best performance in years. Nic Cage as big daddy was just excellent. He has not been this good in years. I have to talk about Chloe Moretz as HIT-GIRL. I can only say WOW. This little girl steals the movie away from everyone even nic cage. She was just excellent, I could't believe how good this girl was. When we first meet hit-girl we hear the banana splits theme music. This was such a fun movie to watch. I sould tell people the blood and gore is done in a outrageous, over the top way. Kick ass is a very bloody movie. Trust me when i say this is not a movie for kids. I give kick ass 4 stars. I really want to see this movie again.

review of doctor who

Well here is my review of the season premire of doctor who. It starts off with a bang, the tardis is crashing to earth and the doctor is hanging off the tardis. The tardis crashs and the doctor gets out and meets this young girl and the start of the show is exciting and pretty funny. The doctor does,t know it yet but he just met his new companion. The doctor meets her again 12 years later and she,s all grown up and she,s a cop. Her name is amy pond. The doctors new companion is smart, strong, good looking. She is the perfect match for this new doctor. This is the youngest looking doctor in the history of the show. This new doctor is wacky, crazy, wild, but he is still THE DOCTOR. I liked the new actor. I think he will make for a good doctor. The premire was all about meeting this new doctor, setting up the new season, the doctor meeting his new compantion amy. The doctor goes after a escaped alien prisoner. We see these space ships looking for the alien and one of the space ships has this giant eyeball. It,s everything you would expect from doctor who. It is a good fun, exciting, funny start to the new season. The premire was great.

the history of doctor who

Doctor who is the longest running tv show in history. Doctor who started in 1963 and was canceled in 1989. So it ran for 26 years by the time it was cancled.The Doctor is a time lord who travels though space and time. The doctor has always had companions. His first companions were his granddaughter susan, susans school teachers barbara and ian, starting with the 2nd doctor was the brigadier and then sarah jane smith was the companion of the 3d and 4th doctors. Because the first doctor was played by a older actor, when the first actor left the show they came up with the idea that the doctor can die but his body can regenerate and he can come back to life. So when one actor leaves the show we see the doctor die then regenerate into the new actor. It,s been said on the show the doctor can only regenerate 12 times. The show finally came back in 2005. This new series is a continuation of the old series. The show also has had spin off series like the sarah jane adventures, torchwood. This new season will see the start of the 11th doctor.

for andrew

I just watched the real slim shady video in honor of andrew. Andrew Dargan was a big kid. He really loved his family and friends. For as long as i can remember we have always had pets. Andrew loved our first dog and cat, baby and fluffy. Today we have our big girl of a dog because of andrew. After our dog baby died, Andrew went out one day and he comes home with this little dog after his arm and as soon as we saw her we loved her. Andrew loved taking her out running and walking. He loved playing with her. He loved playing sports, softball,baseball,golf and hockey. Hockey was his life. He loved playing hockey. I know if he could have gotten the chance he would have played for his fave team the boston bruins. I remember going to his hockey games, always rooting for him. I did,t go to every game because i did,t like being in those freezing cold hockey rinks. I now wish i went to more of his games. I may never have told andrew but he was the best hockey player in the world. Andrews fave hoilday was christmas. He always had katie sleep in our room on xmas eve and he was always the first one up, then he wake up katie, me, then mom and dad. His eyes always lit up when he saw how good st.nick had been to us. Andrew was always a happy go lucky kid. He loved to laugh, play jokes, always had a smile on his face. Andrew loved being with his family and friends. I,ll always love you andrew. I think of you everyday.

andrew

I can,t believe it has been 4 years since andrew died. It does,t seem possbile that it,s been that long. I miss andrew so much. I don,t think i can ever put into words how much it has hurt me to lose andrew. I still remember that night and that week. That whole week i did,t cry at all even at the wake and funural. It was,t just shock,i think with out joking that i really lost my mind. I really think my mind just snapped and it did,t hit me until the day after the funural. I went out for a walk then it hit me like a ton of brinks. I went to his grave and cryed there for 2 hrs. I did,t know what to do, how to think or feel. Nothing that big had ever happened to me before and i had never lost someone that i loved as much as andrew. I was only able to handle it as well as i did because of my family and friends. My friends helped me out and for that i,m thankful to them. I know people were worried about me because i did,t talk about it or cry as much as everyone else. I always thought of myself as a tough guy and i always kept my feelings to myself. I think now that i did,t want to cry because i thought if i start i will not be able to stop. The hardest part for me is we still don,t know everything that happened the night andrew died. I love you andrew. you were a great brother. I wish you could have met luke. you would love luke.

COMIC CON REVIEW

Well the comic con was good. I had fun. I and my friends were shocked when we saw how long the line was. We had to wait outside for a hour before getting in to the comic con. I got 2 tradebacks signed by Mike Mignola. He is the guy that does the hellboy comic books. I also got she-hulk number 1 for only 5$. There were people dressed up as superman, batman,spiderman,wonder woman. My godson conner was awesome. Conner was happy all day, smiling and laughing. I got conner a stuffed toy. The only bad thing I can say about it is there were so many people that I could't get at anything and I could't really look at anything. There was so much i wanted to look at. One of the actresses from buffy the vampire slayer was there but i did,t get to meet her. It was a fun day with my friends and godson. I was happy that i got to hang out with my friends and godson for the day. I can't wait for the next one. The next comic con is wizard world in the fall. Wizard world is the biggest comic con of the year. There's always big stars not just from comic books but also from all the big comic book movies. Wizard world is the first weekend of october.

random thoughts

I have been watching taxi and just finished season 4 tonight. In one of the episodes was a pacman arcade game. I love the old arcade games. I came up with a crazy idea when I turned 30 that I wanted to buy one of the old arcade games for myself. There was a movie called the king of kong and it's about this guy that beats the donkey kong world top score. This is where I got the idea for wanting to get one of the old games for myself. I thought since the old games have been around forever that I sould be able to get one cheap. I was to find out how wrong I was about this. I looked first at ebay and was shocked when i saw the arcade games cost like 700$, 1000$ 1500$, 2000$. Then there is the shipping which i kept seeing it cost like over 300$. I still have not gotten a arcade game because of how much money i have to spend on not just the game but the shipping. I read not long ago that someone just beat the new high score for donkey kong. What I have been thinking is I like to try beating the top score for donkey kong. What I want to ask everyone is am I crazy for wanting to do it? So I forget about it or do it?

Well it's April, it looks like spring is here! The weather starts to get nice, the sun starts coming out more and the days start to get longer! April is a hard time for me, this coming week will be a hard week because of Andrew. I always try to watch more comedy's and try to watch stuff that will make me feel better and make me laugh. I,m sure you will notice i,ll be watching alot of the old tv shows during this month. I started things off with "Taxi". I just got "Taxi" seasons 2,3,4. I just finished watching taxi season 2 tonight.For anyone not old enough to remember taxi was a show about cab drivers during the late 70s/early 80s. You had the boss from hell Louie depalma, Alex, Bobby who was also a actor, tony who was also a boxer, Elaine, latka, and reverend Jim. The show is still funny as hell. I have been laughing my ass off watching it. I remember watching it as a kid and watching it now as a grown up theres tons of stuff that i know went over my head as a kid. Like Christopher Lloyd as reverend Jim was some goofy wacky guy and as a kid i did,t know he had done drugs and thats why he acts the way he does. The show had the perfect cast, it,s funny because of the characters, the lines, the story's. For a show thats over 30 years old now, it holds up well. I really enjoy watching the old stuff like this.
