Back to the Beginning – Part 2

Back to the Beginning – Part 2
<a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=98>Part 2</a> of the comic is up. Well, it’s 2003… Yep. DVD Review: An Evening with Kevin Smith An Evening with Kevin Smith is a 2 disc DVD set that shows highlights of Q&A sessions Kevin Smith did at 5 or 6 different college campuses. Even though he plays Silent Bob in the movies Smith rarely gives a short answer in these sessions. His longer stories were obviously prepared ahead of time but he is absolutely hilarious in the way he tells them. He says he can’t act but his comic timing is excellent. I am a die hard Kevin Smith fan but about 90% of his stories were things I’ve never heard. Some of these stories include:
  • working on a script for a Superman movie
  • joining Dogma protesters outside a theater
  • his feud with Tim Burton
  • making a documentary for PrinceThe feature is about 3 hours long on 2 discs but I still felt like it was ending too soon. I actually hurt I was laughing so loud. My only minor complaint is that there are no special features whatsoever. I don’t really know what they could have included anyway. I rate DVDs 3 ways: Don’t watch it, rent it, or buy it. If you are a big Kevin Smith fan like me you’ll probably buy it. However if you don’t need it for your collection you may want to rent it because it doesn’t have any extra features to keep you coming back. Continue reading "Back to the Beginning – Part 2"

FINISH HIM!

FINISH HIM!
Sometimes I base comics on events in my life, then there’s <a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=96>today’s comic.</a> I had the typical holiday: presents, food, battle for world domination. K-Dog, Goz and I played a cuthroat game of Risk. Goz won, but fortunatly this was “Lord of the Rings” Risk which means Goz currently only reigns over Middle Earth and not this planet. K-Dog finally got an XBOX. We played co-op on Serious Sam and it was a lot of fun. Lastly, I got a chance to check out a couple of really cool cartoons this week. The first is Undergrads. It is awesome. I think it does a good job of depicting college life from a geek’s point of view. You should definately check it out on Comedy Central. The other cartoon was Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I can’t describe how messed up this cartoon is. It is on Cartoon Network Adult Swim. Continue reading "FINISH HIM!"

Will work for money

Will work for money
<a href=https://www.bitsmack.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=93>Today’s comic</a> is not on my resume. I’ve been doing a lot of job searching online. Haven’t heard anything back yet. When I’m not searching I’m usually playing Beatmania. Other than that mot much is going on. I heard rumors that Christmas is next week. If this is true, I am not prepared. I have also heard rumors of a possible party at K-Dog’s for New Years. Maybe he could clear up these rumors if he ever decided to post on this site again. I’d say he’s been busy but now that finals are over he should have less to do than me. Continue reading "Will work for money"

Star Trek 10: So Very Tired

Star Trek 10: So Very Tired
WARNING: <a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=92>Today’s comic</a> contains spoilers for Star Trek Nemesis. You have been warned. So yeah, we went and saw the movie. It was ok. There weren’t really any surprises and nothing we haven’t seen before in Star Trek episodes. The special effects were impressive. And luckily no one ever “went to manual” (see Star Trek Insurrection). If I were to rank my favorite Star Trek movies it would be as follows:
  1. II The Wrath of Khan
  2. IV The Voyage Home
  3. VI The Undiscovered Country
  4. First Contact
  5. Nemesis
  6. Generations
  7. III The Search for Spock (only because the Enterprise gets blown up)
  8. and the restYou are free to argue with my rankings. Until next time, live long and prosper. Continue reading "Star Trek 10: So Very Tired"

Finally Final Finals

Finally Final Finals
And on that <a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=90>note,</a> we cue the music. Today I took my last two finals and turned in my final programming project. I am now officially done with college, officially. I going to get a lot of game playing done in the next couple of weeks while I look for a new job, most likely Beatmania and Medal of Honor. Kruton and I have been playing MOH online lately and it is a pretty fun game as long as no one is using cheats. I like how it is a little more realistic than other FPS. Instead of carrying 7 or 8 weapons at one time you only have a main weapon, a pistol and gernades. Continue reading "Finally Final Finals"

Time of my Life

Time of my Life
As you can tell by <a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=88>today’s comic,</a> I am pretty excited to be graduating college. Right now I actually don’t know what I’m going to do next. I’m still looking for a job. Next week I have finals. How messed up is that? I go through graduation and then have to take finals.

Last homework ever

Last homework ever
In case you were wondering why K-Dog gets hurt so much in the comic this <a href=modules.php?op=modload&name=Comics&file=index&action=comic&id=87>comic</a> should explain things. I’m not much of a PC gamer but when kruton asked me to join up for some Medal of Honor LAN action I thought “cool”. Today’s comic isn’t our exact conversation but it was pretty close. I can’t really blame them for quitting early to do homework, I have my own homework not getting done because I am doing comics about not getting to play games. The way I see it this is my last week ever to procrastinate on homework. It’s sort of sentimental in a lazy “not actually sentimental at all” kind of way. Anyway, I told myself I wasn’t going to play anymore games until I get all my projects done. Chances are I won’t make it to the weekend. Continue reading "Last homework ever"
