Aah yes is it that time again? ’bout f*cken time if you ask me! To the people who don’t know what I’m going to write about, it is the comeback of the long awaited Grand Theft Auto 5 (GTAV).

Now for those of you who don’t know what the GTA franchise is about I’ll try to make it as short as possible. It is set such you start out in a really bad situation, or a great amount of sh*t, and you have to find a way out (well that’s what the original idea was). But most people play it just for the fun of jacking cars, shooting at cops and killing hookers then stealing their money.

Now Rockstar Games has released a trailer of the next generation of GTA, and with what I’ve seen its looks to be pretty awesome.

So now, I’ll let you guys watch it here: GTA 5 trailer Yeah, I can tell this is gonna turn anyone who has a secret desire to become a virtual criminal, the exact opportunity to do so. But remember, this is a Game, don’t go carrying on what you do in it out into the real world! That might upset some folk.

Also we are a few days away from the release of another big title Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and I personally can’t wait for it. So if you think the multiplayer is original, you are a moron. They literally copied another FPS called Homefront and put a few extra bits and pieces. I’m only excited for the fact of the continuation of the campaign.

Well I think I’ve had enough. This is Nicoli saying Never Say Yes to Free Candy.

Well having heard about Paranormal Activity 3 I thought – “Oh no, 2 has come out and I missed it….”
I was more upset because I just loved the first one sooooo much I was busting to see what rubbish this instalment was laced with…

I was a little surprised!

Gee someone had sat down and actually given this some thought… Although, the whole movie is again based upon a spook ( don’t like saying the “D” word ) that just loves to be in the movies – how odd! Or , hmmm well it wouldn’t work otherwise!

This time the good ole Security Cameras come to the rescue. And not just the odd camera here and there – the whole house is decked out….Even the bedroom?

Now I watched 3 just after this so I am in danger of making some cross references and getting a little mixed up so please don’t slaughter me for that… Speaking of which… Our naughty Spook isn’t so nice in the end…

Ok the story line in brief, which kind of gave this a little meat to it and I’m thinking trying to give some substance to the first one what was just… strange!

Anyway, we are back in the past… As really , after the first one, there isn’t much future…So we are in Kate (Katies)  Sisters place Kristie was it? Correct me if I’ve got that wrong.. Anyway The Other “K” and her bloke have just had a kid recently and it turns out that Small Boys are what Mr Spook is after…. Which in the good ole way of PAx the saga, is that everyone kind of works out – sooner or later depending upon their IQ – that everything isn’t all right and then don’t do alot about it or just do something silly.

I’m not going to ruin this instalment of Horror as it’s actually worthy of watching if you do want a good ole scare… The things with these movies are that its more of what happens after you’ve watched it that can be scary… Although I didn’t have any nightmares, there are some good moments which are enforced by the fact we kind of discover why it’s happening, unlike in the first one.

The other clever aspect is that the end ties in with the happenings of the first movie. Now I know there were a few endings out there and I’m not quite sure that the one I saw when Micah ( the guy always cops it… ) and Kate both end up in a non breathing state… But still, in the vein of everything else that happens, it’s not a huge stretch to accept ( as much as you can with a little imagination ) what happens in the ending…

Or is it?

Rating

Hmm I might break a habit here and give this a 8/10 only because they gave it a “story” that gave you something to prop up the goings on upon and it had some good scary bits. Plus it tried to tie in the first one…

But in way you can’t help but feel that this version wasn’t a “Oh we’re sorry – the first one sucked and we’ll try to rescue it to explain it to folk” which I think they did.

You won’t miss a whole lot by not seeing the first one… This one stands on it’s own and it’s probably better to not see the others at all… ( including the 3rd one ).

Watch this with a friend!

Cheers

Noah: Ok, here we have “Source Code”. It’s 93 minutes long and classified as a Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller.
Max: I think it’s more like a Mind f*&^%#.
Noah: Steady on Max, this is a family site. But yes, it definitely leaves you in a state of mass confusion at the end. Which I think makes this a worthy film as I like movies that keep you thinking – “What just happened….” at the end.
Max: Well that’s fine for some but I found the whole thing to be rather stupid… I mean how can a guy…
Noah: Hold up Max, don’t go giving away too much here…
Max: Well how can I review the stupid thing if I can’t say too much…
Noah: Well we can say a few things… Just checking up on IMDB

We took our popcorn and left the comfort of our lounge to venture outside into Cinema Land…

Ok so it got all the hype one expects from something that you lived in hope that it would live up to……..
Did it? Not really!

It had some scary stuff in it, don’t get me wrong, but you’d think that those “living” in it would actually do something!
Well ok a camera would work if the Spook was camera shy. Was it? Well I think it liked being on camera.

The whole camera thing got a bit tiring due to the “day after reviews” became seemingly less interesting to Micah when things started to heat up.
For instance, when the door first moved he was overjoyed…. but all the other stuff… some never even got mentioned….

The whole, “I’ll fix it” thing and the “you can’t do this in my house…” attitude, obviously scared the spook into submission.

I’m not going to mention too much about what happened as it is worth going to see, if you get scared easily and like to be scared.

Reading between the lines, what I got out of the movie is that a great duo has been born in Micah and Kate as two of the most dumbest people on Earth.

I’m hoping it becomes the theme for the next “Scary Movie” installment! Let’s see – the spook gets rather annoyed that he gets white powder on his tootsies and decides to kill them for it…

Yes, it had scary bits, loud noises will make most people jump, but overall the whole thing was comical. Especially the end….

And I won’t mention the so called “Psychic”. This guy obviously knows somethings nasty is going to happen, but he does Diddley Squat.
He was the little ray of hope, that ended up outscoring Micah in Stupidity. Hey he might end up in his own series…

I think the most scary part is hearing everyone in the cinema screaming.
Something to try…. Go back to see the movie again- wait for a non scary bit and Scream… and plug your ears…cause everyone will follow suit without knowing why.

That has to boost the entertainment value to “being worth it”.

The movie was a progression of hope (hoping it would be really scary) where in parts you did get a bit of a heart start.
That quickly progressed into a strong feeling of “how dumb can you be” and finally a big smile that it all worked out so well in the end.

Remember, it’s just a movie.

There are many more ideas that can be put into a movie like that, which would really require the local laundry service and paramedics to be on standby!

I’ve had the pleasure of watching ZombieLand.

To think that this was inspired by “Shaun of the Dead” which was an absolutely funny 9.5/10 movie, makes you wonder. Which bits of “Shaun of the Dead” did the writers actually watch? Or understand?

Let’s see – “Shaun of the Dead” had zombies…. Zombieland had zombies – Ahh now I see the inspiration! Cause that’s about all the inspiration that it takes from it.

Surprisingly there is a lot to be said about ZombieLand. I could even say a few nice things about it. But I don’t want to upset the writers and fans too much.

Personally, I’d give Zombieland 1/10 for entertainment and 9/10 for giving me hope that anyone can write a movie and make a few million riding on a proven concept.
That concept being, run around , trashing whatever you can find and shoot people, who have been dead but have since decided to get up again with the hope that those that aint dead become dinner.. Oh that last part only applies to ZombieLand, so that was disappointing – maybe there’ll be a part II.

Z-Land did just that – Gave one the strong urge to go off to Z-Land and dream of more entertaining things…

I’ve just seen this comment from a mate on Facebook…

The guy from Man Vs. Wild drank his own pee this week….. not just one sip either, a good three or four mouth fulls. You sir are a f&*@ing nutter….

It’s interesting in a number of ways. 1. Because the guy probably had to hydrate and the cameraman had probably finished his bottle of Gatoraide or hidden it and was having a great laugh.

You can picture the cameraman saying, after the above act was performed, “Oh I just found this bottle….”

Anyway, it did remind me of the Movie Dune. Having read the books and played the game ( on the PC). In Dune no one takes a piss, they just wear these suits and there is a little tube they drink from. Looks like Gatoraide…
So the act itself in the context of the Dune Movie was acceptable.

Although it raises the question regarding No 2′s. That I don’t recall how that was dealt with in Dune. I didn’t see them drinking coffee from that tube at anytime….

Hotdogs are just about ready…

Ad: Telstra Mobile
Aired: Commercial TV – too often.
When : Obviously about the time I’ve written this at a guess!

There is a trend…

I’m going to be writing alot about these kinds of ads as there seems to be some advertising persons who think they are pretty “Kool” ( I even spelt it like that just for them..) and love taking the mickey out of their audience while making a few bucks for their clients.

Anyway, I seen these ads enough times to come to the above conclusion. No I’m not a Telstra Mobile Phone User. I’m not married to an Idiot and if I were I wouldn’t stay with them… But if I had a Telstra Mobile I sure would.

I’d even be happy they were using some “Crappy not as good as Telstra” mobile service, apparently!

The real message

Telstra’s Mobile Service lets you get emails and stuff really fast. [It is an ad..]
The Others [of course] are piss poor slow. Possibly because Telstra has made them that way on their mobile backbone but that’s for another Blog.

The Ad in Question

Bozo Brains and Spunky Dumb Chick are waiting for some friends to arrive at a restaurant… Bozo can’t remember his mates new girlfriends name. “It’s something like a Fruit”…
Spunky Dumb Chick looks up the email they had got sent…While Bozo Brains is still trying to download his email to find out the mates girlfriends name. *** Note – there are better cheaper ways to do this. Just ask them! ***

This is where it gets interesting…

Turns out the Girlfriends name is Melony. “The Fruit” – Melons…hahahaha. Ok, it must have been a real fun creative evening for the guys with a few magazines for inspiration…

Any way the “bloke” and Melony ( what’s the guys name?) sit down, while Spunky Dumb Chick waits to be seated. Of course Bozo Brains doesn’t do the right thing by assisting her as What’s his name had just done for Melons, umm I mean Melony, and she ends up seating herself. Maybe he’s been affected by the “Telstra ” waves as well.
Well he is a Bozo Brain… You are not allowed to smoke near others any more cause they get affected by passive smoking. Passive Telstra Mobile Phone Waves maybe at play here…

If there are more of these…

This is the Second Ad of this “series”… If there is a third, and I’m guessing there will be, it just means there’ll be more for me to write about, and someone has to do it.

If you are a little unsure as to the actual title of this item, I’ll explain. If you use Telstra Mobiles you end up staying with a Bozo Brain… And that is pretty stupid!

She must have changed networks and moved on as I’ve not seen those two together of late…. Good on her!

Well I’m out of popcorn, time for a refill.

I’m not sure what to say about this ad,

On the one hand I think it’s Brilliant. My Wife goes into hysterics when she sees it.
On the other hand I kind of cringe in certain parts…You’ll know which parts they are when you see them.

It’s Part II of an ad where all the nice people who make the beer live. You’ll see flashes of them and the paradise they live in throughout the ad.

And it’s where the Dove has apparently come from and got lost and is having great difficulty in getting home.

Warning if you are a Dove

If you are a Dove, you may have problems watching this or maybe you can relate to it.

Watch and enjoy.

Hmm Rankings:

Cleverness 8/10.

Ability to show Beer Drinkers can be kind to animals 9/10.

I’ve had a bit of a look at the responses on the internet to Kraft’s New Snack Fiasco.

For one thing, it will not be a Recommended Couch Potato Critics Snack.

Now Dave, whom I’ve never met or spoken too has put up a good video on Youtube regarding this.
So as he’s taken the time to do so I’m putting it up here for your viewing pleasure.

Bravo Dave. Well Said and let’s hope it all goes the way of the DODO.

I thought it had…. as it tastes like a DODO would after all these years…

It might look like Crap. It tastes like crap and it’s name, well it’s ….

Once again the advertising geniuses have disgraced a National Icon by calling a revamped version of it – iSnack 2.0.

What is that? – “I Snack too” or is it some ad geeks idea of a Joke – like Web 2.0. “Oh I’m a internet Nerd and me and all my internet nerdy mates are up on this Web 2.0 thing and we all have Iphones to send nerdy pictures to each other on ( nothing wrong with IPhones by the way – See www.iWankers.com. So let’s first change the taste of some National Icon to real Crap and call it iSnack 2.0. Man that’s so Cool”.

Well Mr Advertising Geek…

Don’t go changing something that’s been working for a long long time and please don’t go using shit names like “iSuck@Advertsing 2″ (possibly the advertising companies name – perhaps it should be)

And whats with – We’ve asked a lot of people… and it’s just your mates around a board room table. Hmmmm Do I dare say more?

So overall – It’s an Insult to every one that likes the Old Vegemite and it insults those who have an IQ greater than 2.0. Again is that a reflection on the iSuck@Advertising 2.0 collective IQ. They must have a large staff

It’s a National Aussie Disgrace

Is the Vegemite company owned by Australians?

In Conclusion

No Ratings or anything on this one. There’s nothing more to say than “think up a better name”!
