Pineapple Express

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

This was not just a stoner movie. ;)
(I’ve even included the Goofs!)

Like its predecessors the theme of friendship was prevalent throughout.

However the boys added something different to the mix this time, besides weed.

Pure OVER the top action, i’m talking explosions, car chases, Ak 47’s, guns galore.

It was a solid movie, with comedy always there to overshadow the bad-ass action and violence. :P

The actions scenes were not only original, funny, and different, they were entertainingly brutal.

This movie does have a lot of gore, but it is used in the best sense.

In an effort to keep this a spoiler free review, all i can leave you with is… , watch this film.

I haven’t laughed this hard for quite a while.

enjoy!  ;) magic

The Goofs have been included, however to save the spoiler - I’ve edited the last one, the astrix’s used don’t reflect the amount of letters in the characters names. ;)

Speed Racer

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

I have to say, it seems that those who hated it were obviously not doing their homework beforehand to know that Speed Racer is not supposed to be a thought-provoking film like The Matrix.

It is based on a wonderfully simple cartoon with a simple message for kids.

If anyone knows anything about cult fans, they want films to reflect the original medium as much as possible.

Thus, if you go to a children’s movie based on a child-friendly anime, expect it to be such and not some mind-blowing,challenging film.

Especially these days, we need films like this one to take our minds off the usual violence and such found in so many other so-called family movies.

Take it as it is, a great family flick for ALL ages to simply enjoy.

have fun! ;) magic

New Browser from Google

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

We have learned that Google has launched a new Internet Browser, its called Chrome and should be available to download from today.

It’s pretty much the same as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, Apple’s Safari and Mozilla’s Firefox, Chrome has more tools for Web surfers to cloak their online preferences, creating a shield that could make it more difficult for Google and other marketing networks to figure out which ads are most likely to appeal to which individuals.

It really is just a matter of time to see how much security the new browser has, Apple’s Safari has been reported to be the most open browser with security flaws.

happy browsing! ;) magic
