Oh no!!! I am a raging geek! (and I am not proud of this)

Ok, I know i have been spreading hate for the last two bloggs, but things are just making me so angry! SO ANGRY!!!!!

I am an avid comic book reader, I read them every day and I get them every week, it is what I do, they are my main source of entertainment (when there are no bums fighting in the street and calling each other mowawa). I have pleasure in seeing good comic adaptations to film, it happens once in every 35 comic movies that come out, and the main reason why is because comic books are a monthly reading material. They are not 2 hours of storytelling, some of them are 45 years of story telling.

But let's not go into that. the only Batman movie i respect is Batman begins, cause it has been taken serious, it is true to the character in many aspects ( even rahs al guhl in many aspects)but the thing about it is that it is an excellent translation to film. It is not the comic, it is a movie version of the comic book character, and it has its own world, but it feels so much like the stuff on paper, the way it looks, the way it feel, how the characters are played, you know, it is respectful.Not like Tim Burton's Batman, I do not care what anyone says, Jack Nicholson is NOT the joker, he is Jack Nicholson in make up acting as he would in a situation like that.

In any case. actually that is the case, Hollywood just wants to make a profit, and they will take this " writers" they trust, cause they have made them money some how, to make whatever the writers feel is " cool", and if there is someone out there that makes a script ( and honestly who knows if the script is good or bad?) hey take another person they trust to re-write it and make it crap.

But back to what I was saying at the beginning. There are those comics that are hard to capture in 2-3 hours time, because there are so many layers of the character that have been explored for decades that you can't simply fit it in the time given, and then there are the amazing miniseries! A yes something that takes place in 4,6,12 issues, that you can see be made into a movie, cause a lot of times is written sort of like a movie( then again there are those times where a guy says 13 lines while throwing one punch) and sometimes you can see trough what can get lost for the time and money, because no studio is going to give you the budget to make watchmen how it needs to be done, but you can try and make it the best you can, there are such miniseries like Mark Miller;s wanted.

Ah a comic book rotating around the ultraviolence, with enough character driven plot to make you want to act it out, so much evolves around the characters that you could care less how much of the technology is missing by the time is done. You don't need to adapt it to the big screen, unless that means cutting out unnecessary words and expanding the action to fit the exposition by word. So tell me, Why are the guys that wrote fast and the furious/ and fatf Tokyo drift " adapting" the comic to film? why is the scribe if "tomb raider" " tailoring " the fox character for Angelina Jolie? is she really the kind of actress that can't play a character? the character has to be " tailored for her"?

No I do not expect a page by page adaptation of the comic, I already mentioned that is not realistic for time and budget issues, but if you are going to get someone to "adapt the source material for a movie" can it be someone that did not wrote such piece of shit movies as the fast and te furious/Tokyo rift? I mean those movies are on the top 15 worse movies ever made! and if people love them is because they are really entertained by shit. If you are going to get an actress to play a part, can't you just get an actress tat can play a part?

This is just fucking ridiculous, I am sure I would not be mad if the people doing this project had a better resume that the fucking fast and the fucking furious, movies made for lil 12 year old girls, you could have gotten anyone else in the fucking planet and you get this piece of shit movie writers. I would have the guys that wrote the Hulk write this, and the Hulk is in the top 5 worse movies of all time!!!!

Sorry for the anger, but it is sad when you see something you like and that is good, be potentially at a shit-shake, and not get mad. it is just not the way it should be.

I hope this movie turns out 1/4 as good as the source material is, and you will have something to take home with you.

If I was a Transformer what car would I be, or why I hate Dusty Baker.

Does not make much sense to you?

As i sit home watching the home-run derby, I see Dusty Baker talk his ass off on tv. I HATE dusty Baker, he was the most over rated coach in baseball, all he can do is be loud and look like he cares, but does he really know?

I feel like he likes to be on tv and nothing else, he really never made anything work, and before you tell me anything that he did that changed the game on any of the team he was in, I do NOT care, he simply did not look like he cared, he just looked like he wanted the money and as he got payed, he just seemed to get more relaxed about not doing a fucking thing.

I told a friend of mine that i felt like this, he said i was racist. NO this is not the point, I never said that he was like this cause he is black, I said he is like this cause he sucks, I hate him as much as I hate Mike Scioscia, but at least Scioscia took the angels to the world series in 2002. And I HATE Mike Scioscia. well hate is a strong word for both this guys, I really dislike them.

To hunt my life (lol) now Baker is a " baseball annalist " for ESPN. Now tell me if that is not some bull shit! this is some bull shit! I just feel like is not fair cause i feel like there are people out there that know more baseball than dusty baker(no not me) that should have that job! Just beacuse you where a coach that sucked ass you should not get a microphone at ESPN and say whatever you want, that has nothing to do with what is going on! and that is why I am a Landau Decepticon!

Cheap special efffects!

Ok I am mad!!!!

If i remember correctly even the cheapest special effect companies look great when they look cheap!!! At least when compared to 1982!






I had a dream, and no not like Dr. Marthin Luther King, that was not a dream in the sence that he was sleeping, but in the sence that he was wishing. I had a dream that I was in a fight with Captain Hook, in Dagobah, so I find my way down to yoda, who gives me the recepy for flying " think a happy thought". But being chased by Captain Hook, how happy can i really be? more like shitting myself.


Now i think of getting home and it gets me in the air, and then as soon as I am in the air here comes mister "look who now flyes with a hook"Hook. So I am shitting my pants once again, one cause i do Not have the time to take a flight course so I am more like floating and two cause I can not fight a man with a sword when i don't know how to use one ( and i did not even have a sword i had a fucking dagger!).

Well that is all nice and dandy since I Woke up right away when i new i was goign to die by the sword of Hook, that is not what had me mad. what had me mad was that the yoda that i had was the puppet!!!! Yeah and frank ozz did not even voice him!!!



And although Captain Hook was a person that looked exactly like he's cartoon counterpart, he was still flying with like 1983 special effects! I mean I could see that white aura you get when you put someone against a blue screen! it was him on one vivid color, and a background that looked like it got shot in 1978 film! disgracefull!!!!!



Now I don't know who was in charge of the effects for my dream last night, or rather this morning, but I can asure you, they are FIRED!
