I never knew of these scenes! They’re damn good. Especially the first one. Every star wars fan must watch! The first one was from the original 70s Star Wars. A vital subplot, taken off the movie.

Ok, but seriously, this one from Episode 3 really rocks. It shows a deeper dive into the whole corrupt senate. And it shows Shaak Ti, in the flesh! She rocked in the Clone Wars. And the best part, Yoda comes to Dagobah.

I was about to start on my lab assignment… and then I realised, I couldn’t. I got a bad feeling about this semester. And the other module has yet to reveal itself.

Anyway… the reason I made this post is because of a video on youtube that sort of got me re-inspired to get back to drawing webcomics.

Sure my drawing prowess has crumbled to nothingness, but I may yet start again… Who knows… maybe in the near future. Meanwhile, my old stuff can be found here.

This is the video I’m talking about. Hmm… I should stop embedding video. It’s not good for health.

I’ve told so many people about this monster, and being the poor story teller that I am, they ended up laughing at me when I do the actions while describing the monster.

So here, watch it for yourselves, if you hadn’t watched the movie, Pan’s Labyrinth.

It’s not too scary, after all, it’s just a fairy tale.

*Why I chose to show this now is coz I wanted to watch the Nightwish concert I had on DVD. So, after searching for it, I found that it's on the same disc as Pan's Labyrinth. Therefore, I was reminded of this monster. Heh.

You know what? Screw everything else… Nightwish (with Tarja) is the best, and nothing beats it.

This is the best rendition of the song, Phantom of the Opera.
I was introduced to this song in sec 2 by my music teacher. It was the original classical version. But Nightwish’s take on it… really captures it. The best i tells ya. The best.

This song’s called Victorium Speramus. Played to some awesome Assasin’s Creed cutscenes and gameplay. It’s an awesome game, and if you’re getting PS3 or 360, get this.The band’s called Krypteria. Worth checking out, especially if you are those among few disappointed with recent Nightwish developments.

That’s the lead vocals. A certain friend who’s got a Korean girlfriend should check her and her band out yeah?

I woke up today for my usual servings of email and rss. This caught my eye and gave me morning goosebumps. Aged 6 to 12? Count this 24 yr old in! Click on the image to view the trailer. It’s bloody awesome. It’s as if the X-Men Evolution kids grew up. I loved X-Men Evo when it came out, coz it came after a long silence of XMen stuff. I think it was around the hype of the first movie. But since the third movie kinda disappointed me, I’m hoping to reaffirm my faith with this series. Very promising indeed.

In other news, I realised I haven’t been making as much entries as I wanted to. There’s not much going on right now, except for the ’secret’ project. Progress has been motivating, but there’s a hell of a lot more to go. Whether this endeavour can succeed or not still remain illusive.

I’ve caught Rambo 4, and a few other movies too, since Cloverfield. But the drive to write a review had faded since then. I should do a review the very moment I got home from the theater. Otherwise, it’ll just slip my mind.

It’s the long CNY break for us, and this time round, I’m making full use of it for the project. Damn. I hate how they leave you in the dark and expect you to learn everything yourself. But, what to do…

The Starcraft Ghost game intro movie.

This is a video of the gameplay. Anyone noticed how the voiceover is extremely familiar? Optimusly familiar?

I’ve been out of the gaming loop for a long time. But one game I truly loved was Starcraft. Played it in my secondary school days. Tasted the first online multiplayer gaming with the game. Loved the storyline, concept and everything to do with it. Then Blizzard decided to do Diablo II and Warcraft III, which was… okay, I guess. The thing is, they’ve already announced Ghost way before Warcraft III. They’ve even got all these trailers, videos and teasers. But where the hell is the game!!!

Warcraft III was released, and I find it a little disappointing. Then they went on to do World of Warcraft, which got me interested till I found out that you’ve gotta pay and all just to play it.

But where’s Starcraft GHOST!?

Then they said they’ll return to the Starcraft universe, with Starcraft II. Yeah, it’s sure as hell been anticipated for a long time. But where’s Ghost? That’s a damn good idea for a game, which never got released.

It’s been going around for quite some time hasn’t it?

We’ve all heard about it in some way. All the news about how some of our favourite shows are being put on hold, or even risk cancellation, because of the writers not wanting to work.

But before you get pissed at these writers for being selfish, and not bringing you the goodness of shows such as Prison Break, Heroes, 24 and many others which are affected by their strike, take a look at this video, which explains why they do it.

After watching it, I would probably join them if I was a writer.

This is madness. Everyone’s talking about it. Halo 3 is out. Xbox players are shrieking in excitement. And I’ve only played Halo 1. That’s just sad.

I’ve been so backdated with the one thing I’m ’supposed’ to like: playing games. For a game development student, I’m not playing enough games as I’m expected to. Well, that’s just my theory. But really, it’s been so long since I keep up with what’s hot in the gaming world.

When people speak of Halo 3, I can only relate to the one Halo game I’ve played. The graphics was so smooth, the concept, original, the gameplay, unique. I really liked it. Master Chief was just.. cool. And that land rover/buggy kinda thing… damn nice.

I didn’t miss the Halo 2 hype either. But all I could do was to watch videos of it on youtube and such internet media with my mouth watering. Once, I tried playing it at a friend’s house. I actually tried to stop myself from enjoying it coz if I did, I’ll be sad when I get home and realise I’m unable to play it whenever I want.

Not so recently, I went to the Game Convention, and saw how freaking far the technology had developed. Everything was so… graphic heavy. Sometimes people tend to forget on the important aspects of a game and dump all their energy on creating breathtaking gfx. Stuff like storyline, gameplay, loopholes, are often overlooked.

For example, warcraft 3. I know it’s old. But I’ve never liked it. And yet, the game kept spawning and evolving and getting more and more people playing it. I’ve played warcraft since warcraft 1, back in the days of 1.44 inch floppy disks. I loved the storyline and concept. And when warcraft 2 came out, the jump was so big that I couldn’t contain myself. Warcraft 2 was awesome. It really expanded the warcraft universe. But when warcraft 3 came out, and I got the game, I was thinking: This MUST be some preliminary testing version! The game can’t be as sucky as this!?

But anyways, for Halo fans out there, here’s a cool clip on some guy with a really realistic masterchief costume. The bg music’s nice. I don’t know where it’s from.

Also, I was browsing through the google trends website on the day of Halo 3’s launch. And people are already searching for cheat codes. Pfft. Pathetic.

I don’t know how long this has been out. But it’s freakin’ HILARIOUS!

It seems that it’s been 30 years since Star Wars began. They’re celebrating its anniversary and this episode is a part of it.

It’s Family Guy’s parody of Star Wars. There’d been many flashbacks about star wars before, but this… this is a WHOLE episode on spoofing the great Saga!

Been a long time since Family guy got THIS funny!

Where can I find the FULL episode!!!??
