I'm sure they'll fix it, have you tried youtube XL?
watching youtube on PS3 was rubbish anyway since it was limited to 240p

youtube xl was disabled as well.
found an HD youtube site though for the PS3

I'm baaa-aaaaack!

Had a great time in Long Beach, and a lot of stuff happened that I'm sure wouldn't interest you lot. More than anything, I'm thrilled to come back and find a lack of fresh spambots.

Incidentally, I heard about Neil Armstrong's death at the syncopated drummers' conference. Ruined a perfectly good day, I'll tell you what.

If it's any consolation, he was pretty old. :(

Oh, yeah. It's staggering to me that he had the ability to go through all the physical stress of working for NASA, landing on the moon, and then still going on to die at 82. I wouldn't be surprised if Death came to him two or three times and Armstrong told him to fuck off.

Incidentally, didn't we also lose Sally Ride this year? I'd say this was an awful year for space fans, but the Curiosity rover kinda balances that out, I think.

You're just saying that because of your ego.

Monologue start:

Today I have spent about 5 to 6 hours searching online for a downloadable copy of Hard to Die.
Also, less commonly known as Sorority House Massacre III.
Image
This is my second trip looking for this movie. The last trip lasted days and days.
I eventually gave up when I stumbled across some other satisfying B movies.

I expect nothing of Hard to Die except gratuitous gore and lots of T&A.
Though I fear the movie built around such shameless attractions will be so dismally STUPID that it will without a doubt dissapoint the fucking hell out of me. Countless negative reviews have not deterred me so far. Horrible looking previews and bad word of mouth haven't put me off this search. At this point, I think I'm so hellbent on looking for it, simply so I can say I've found it. I would store it on my PS3 and show it off as a shlocky trophy of my internet prowess.

Now, I hope I never find this movie. As it could never live up to my rock bottom expectations. There could not be a pair of tits or a splash of blood so glorious in it as to justify this ridiculous obsession. There is no way it could NOT dissapoint me with all the time I've spent towards it. So now...

I give up. Formally. Officially.
I give up this pointless and sad obsessivly stupid search.

Instead, I am now currently downloading Hard Ticket to Hawaii and 2019: After the Fall of New York.
Image Image
These movies shall hopefully further inspire me to do what I've wanted to do since I started getting a soft spot for these horribly sleazy movies: Make my own.
As Black Dynamite was to Blaxsploitation, one day, my own movie will be to the shlocky 70's-80's era-genre of B grade, VHS, bargain bin, action/horror/sci-fi flicks.
It shall be wrought with cliche slasher tropes, infused with the best qualities of cheesy low-rent actioners, and combined with the greatest aspects corman-esque sci-fi.
There shall be bikinis, motorcycles, ninjas, mutants, tacky montage scenes, tacky 80's pop music to accompany said tacky montage scenes... *takes a breath*

There will be big boobs, bigger guns, buckets of gore, vietnam flashbacks, mullets, mohawks, samurai swords, chainsaws, a distinct lack of shaky cam, and a hero who manages to proudly rip-off the T-800, Max Rockatansky, AND Snake Plisskin.
If it all doesn't gel or fit into one film, I'll make it into a damn trilogy!

And if I had it my way... I'd shoot it all on actual film.

*exhale*

Over approximately 7 hours left for these movies to download.
I shall bide my time, less than patiently.

Monologue finished.

So I have gotten an idea for that ultimate grindhouse/exploitation B-movie flick I plan to make.

Mob Guy (who's son of the head honcho Godfather Dude) goes to 'take care of' a Witness Chick in this backwater swamp area place. Only right then, a meteor lands in the swamp, and as he goes to investigate, he gets possessed by a flesh-hungry alien, who must incubate and acclimate to Earth's atmosphere in a host body before he's big enough to exist by himself. Anyways, after Mob Guy gets possessed, he eats Witness Chick. After the Godfather Dude learns of his son's newfound taste for flesh, he figures his boy is one of those weird people you hear about on the news. But seeing as how family's family, he decides to aquiesce his son's new taste. They set him up with a run-down, boarded up, locked off house in a really bad neighborhood where he can stash girls he kidnaps to kill and eat them. Similar to seeing a bunch of dumb, busty, chicks get stalked around an abandoned mansion by a slasher... yeah.

Anyway, eventually, the cops see a pattern with all these bloody skeletons turning up in dumpsters and put their two finest on the case: Two loose cannon, ladies men who use off the wall methods to get the badguys every time. So to throw them off his trail, Godfather Dude hires a few equally wild-eyed hitmen to kill them. Motorcycle riding, bomb toting, freaky looking baddies who look like they stepped out of a sequel to Hobo With a Shotgun. These guys are also bloodily dispatched by our intrepid heroes, who are now hot on the Mob Guy's trail. They find his slaughter-house and in a big face off, they rescue his latest batch of needlessly well-endowed ladies, except... for the lead Cop's Girlfriend. Mob Guy escaped with her back to Daddy's. Realizing who he is, the cops decide they're going to need more guns to take on the Godfather Dude in his own mansion. Bigger guns even.
Meanwhile, Godfather Dude figures he'll need extra protection so he requests a favor from an old friend and Yakuza Contact....

So, the climactic showdown gets underway with a massive shootout on the mansion's grounds as they blast their way through waves of disposable mob foot soldiers. But when they enter the mansion... they must contend with fifty ninja assassins. Courtesy of Yakuza Contact. So in that big bloodbath sequence, our heroes emerge with their fair share of cuts and scrapes, and also smart enough to pick up a ninja sword or two for whatever lies ahead...
Which just happens to be the full grown alien just about to snack on Girlfriend. Shocked, but determined the cops face off against the implausibly big alien, who has just left his host, the now graphically deceased Mob Guy. The cops fight him with guns, swords, and anything else that comes in handy. They destroy him in some excessively gory manner and save the day. The Godfather dude would of course get his from Yakuza Contact, who is most upset about this blatent display of dishonor.

The end.

Am I too paranoid in thinking this was staged ?

I mean, sure, this kind of stuff happens, but these guys have been a pop band for the last decade, and now they're gonna complain when they get dropped at a "non-punk" event ?

Goddamnit Watchmencomicmovie.com!!

Procrastination has reached new heights, I'm on the penultimate paragraph of a Child Language Acquisition essay and I've hit "the wall".

At the moment, sitting around with a cup stuck to my face seems a lot more rewarding than finishing this goddamn stupid-arse-bitch-Satan essay.

Someone persuade me otherwise??

I did it. It got to the point where I realised I'd happily been sat there with the cup on my face, listening to Justin Timberlake and Madonna (the evils of shuffle) for about three minutes without even thinking anything of it.

Needless to say, I soon came to my senses and slapped on some SOAD. (Y)

why do you even have Timberlake and Madonna available for shuffling if you are a System fan? :|
