Da Vinci

Well I think the ciritics were way too hard on Da Vinci Code. It follows the book pretty well (up until the end). It was pretty action packed and fun. Not much else to report recently. Apparently the "old" version of Blade Runner is coming to DVD soon... that should be interesting.

Fore-shadowing?

I am going to see the Da Vinci Code tomorrow with a friend of mine. I can't wait to see it (even though I have heard bad things about it). I really liked the book (and Angels and Demons) and wonder how it will transfer to film.

Old time fun...

I watched the Final Fantasy : Advent Children Movie last night. It was good but, I think only those that have played the game could really enjoy it. I would liken it to going to a reunion and seeing all those friends that you remember. It was a good film don't get me wrong (and the graphics are just outstandingly amazing, almost just worth seeing the film because if it) but, for the average movie watcher it wouldn't hold much appeal.

Stupid HTPC!

Well I didn't catch Survivor last night but, hopefully I can catch it tonight when i get home. I pray that my HTPC recorded it correctly!!

Long awaited release

It is finally done! Final Fantasy X is defeated. The ending was good and definitely makes me feel like something was acomplished (even thought it is just a video game). Maybe I need to work some on the house now!

Sin??

I have finally gotten inside SIN! (sounds bad doesn't it?) I finally got past a boss in Final Fantasy X that I have been trying to get into for over a year. I don't know what I did differently but battles are so much easier. I must be using a different strategy. I am thinking about picking up a DS Lite when they come up for purchase next week. I might not though.

Gencon...

Boy, what a mad dash to get registered for Gencon this year. I wasn't able to get enough tickets for the Goodman games tourney. I was able to register for myself but, as per the allowable registrations I couldn't get any registered for my buddies since they had accounts of thier own. I definitely think that the way to register for gencon is to take the afternoon off and have everyone pick what they want and rush the system all under one account so you can all get registered for what you want.

I was able to pick up two tickets for True Dungeon. It should be fun but it was the most costly for the events. All the other events really had a lot of bang for the buck. They averaged out to something like a buck an hour (for a 5 to 6 hour session!). It should be fun!!
