Once Upon A Time

Guess who's balls deep in a new show?

So I'm a little behind on the band wagon? Hate me some more, why don't ya. I was always good at being the odd ball out.

Please tell me you've experienced this show. A little difficult to grasp at first with all of the flashbacks to construed time lines, it's well worth the time to understand what's going on. I'm looped.

So before this is you:

Keep in mind that I will be back. As soon as I'm finished. Promise!

World War Z

Let's start off with the fact that I have a rather serious fear of all things zombie related.

Also, I'd like to first recognize Max Brooks for the original novel.

World War Z didn't make me as terribly sweaty as most apocalypse movies do. I'm talking like majority of them leave me with legit muscle cramps and tension throughout my entire body. It's rather concerning. We won't even begin with the impossible imagination - nightmares included.

My first impression of these 'zombies' honestly reminded me of an incredibly hungry and upset Beast. Their movements were very primitive and super-humany. That put a nice spin on the typical 'walker' stereotype. Slow, clumsy, uhhhh, type zombies. These things were crazy!!

Of course, the common 'one guy can save the world' scenario is put in place. His adventure is a little different than most, though. Most of all zombie flicks now are just the 'I'm bored and want a thrill' kind of deals. Your family is dead, kill zombies, run a mile, your friend gets bit, kill said friend, cry, etc. WWZ had some brain power behind the making. I enjoyed how the three writers figured out the plot.

Needless to say, I will never watch this movie again in my entire life. I heard decent things so I had to check it out for myself. Duh. *lesson learned* Can't fault a girl that at least knows what she doesn't want (who am I kidding?). 

I do, however, highly recommend this movie to anyone that loves this genre of sci-fi. I specifically used Netflix to stream this horror film. Have you picked up on the trend yet??

Oh, and here's a little distraction with all the zombie chatter.

 I'm going to go watch The Little Mermaid or something so I don't have crap dreams. Indubitably, that would entail that I actually hit REM tonight. Yeah, oookay. (>.<)

Show me some better rainbow farts in the comments. Errbody got time fa dat!

100 Degrees Below Zero

Movie Review! *extra side of spoilers

So if you haven't caught on, my escape from reality is to drive in deep to all things science based fantasy. Which is needed as of recent, given the latest events in my personal life.

Let's visit the movie 100 Degree Below Zero, shall we?

The environmental concept in this movie was pretty intriguing and even slightly believable. Job well done, H. Perry Horton, on setting the plot line for possible scenarios. I would love to hear from a geophysicist on if this is probable and the percentage rate for occurrence.

Sara Malakul Lane made it an incredibly difficult challenge to watch the entire movie from beginning to end.
To keep it simple:
You either look like this ---> and do soft core porn *cough cough Jailbait*
OR
You have a seriously decent acting career.

Unless you're Angelina Jolie. That bitch does it all.

For being someone so far under the radar with experience, Marc McKevitt Ewins didn't give me a 'gouge my eyes out' experience. Besides my normal focal point being his teeth, I found him to be handsome on a normal scale.

Here we go with some (probably incorrect) numbers crunching.
We all remember the movie Clerks from '94, right? That movie was created using only approximately 5% of the total budget used to create 100 Degrees Below Zero - and it still blows 100 Degrees Below Zero out of the park. I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that I will purposely go out of my way to be cautious that I never watch another film by The Asylum. *That previous sentence is false due to my curiosity of all things sci-fi but it added nice impact*

In case you read this without checking out the title of my blog, please revisit the top of the page. This is a place for criticism from me, a lame fangirl, using entirely my own opinion. I openly accept all opposing points in the comments. :)

Video Game High School

Woah! Have you checked this series out on Netflix yet?

I was almost as geeked about this concept as when I first watched Wreck It Ralph. Talk about some ultimate brain power behind that hamster wheel.

Think of what it would have been like to go to high school specifically for gaming; from Rhythm Method, Drift Racing, FPS, and Unknown Fighting Class. Um, yes please! Not only are these kids literally gaming all day and knocking their peers down in expulsion rank with each win, it seems that they have an unlimited supply of Monster Energy Drink. Did I mention the vending machines on campus with hot pockets in a can??

So now you understand my slight excitement.

Talk about poor delivery. Yikes. On Netflix, I only have access to the first two seasons. Each season has maybe 5 or 6 episodes that are probably 30 minutes long. I'm far from impressed with the selected cast for what could have potentially been a major hitter in my book of epic.

What brought me to VGHS, you ask? The one and only Zachary Levi. 

I found out he had a part in the series and jumped all over it like a maggot to dead flesh. I was more than heart broken when his role wasn't very active, but only in Season 1 twice. Once during a classroom setting for FPS 101 and the other during the JV vs. Varsity tryouts. With an absolutely painful accent, mind you.

Did you pull out your hair watching VGHS too? Let me know in the comments.

Stay tuned for the final thoughts after Season 2!
