Speed Grapher – Episode 07

Tuesday, May 31st, 2005

Saiga and Kagura continues their flight of freedom. Getting the paki-man to deliver Saiga’s uber camera lense was a great idea since the power of the shot depends on the lense and the focus. Going to the country, Saiga got a doctor who was with him during the war to do a check [...]

Madagascar

Saturday, May 28th, 2005

I really didn’t know what to expect out of Madagascar. I saw the trailers, and because of the voice cast (Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, etc), I thought it’d be funny! Unfortunately, it wasn’t. I don’t think I laughed out loud at all during the entire flick. Very unfortunate.

Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith

Saturday, May 28th, 2005

I have to say I was disappointed in the last episode of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. The story overall was alright, though there were many unbelivable parts that I just couldn’t really swallow. But, let’s take it from the top! Don’t read if you don’t want spoilers.

Best Buy, I loved thee ~

Thursday, May 26th, 2005

A long time ago, I used to frequent Best Buy for every single computing/gaming/electronic needs, but it hasn’t been the case for years now. It’s unfortunate, but online shopping and comparisons turned Best Buy into a what seem like a price gouging upscale warehouse. They won’t match prices you find online, only other [...]

The Notebook

Thursday, May 26th, 2005

The Notebook is a good love story but since the director so kindly ruin the surprise by throwing in hints as big as a moose at you, it really could’ve been better. To those that ask, it’s not really super sad and depressing love story – it’s more heartwarming and sweet to be exact. [...]

Wednesday, May 25th, 2005

Reuters reports a BitTorrent site that offered Star Wars Episode 3 hours prior to release is shut down by the FBI and Homeland Security. This is the first time that such a closure has such publicity associated with it! I wonder how this’d affect my anime habits… Hmmm…
