The year in review: Part 1

This post is going to be a bit on the long side, but all things like this tend to be that way.

Movies:

Well this year has been good for me on the movie front, Just got done seeing I am Legend, which was great. Also picked up an HD dvd drive, a great buy I might add.

There was alot of movies this year that were all pretty good, In January you had Epic Movie, which for the people that like that style film was so so, but it had its moments. Feburary saw Breach, which was a fantastic film, March had Wild Hogs, and Zodiac, the new Ninga turtles movie. March had Live Free or Die, and Blades of Glory. April had Grind House, Hot Fuzz, and a bunch of crap movies. May which might be one of my favorite months for the obvious reasons had Spider man 3, and thats about it that was decent. June saw Surf's Up, and Hostel: Part 2, Ratatouille, Live Free or Die Hard, Evean Almighty, it was one heck of a movie month.

The list goes on, Transformers, License to Wed, the Simpsons, I now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Hot Rod, Underdog, Superbad, American Gangster, Beowulf, Alvin and the Chipmunks, and still coming up we have National Treasure: Book of secrets, and Sweeney Todd.

Overall I saw most of these films at home, or will be seeing them there soon. I think overall it has been a good year for movies, not all of the ones I listed were the greatest, but they were entertaining, and I think that is the important part. In the next part of the Year in review we will take a look at my thoughts on the video games that have come out, I think i'll try my hand at a top ten list for that one though, and try to keep the list a little smaller.

Major Update, and Major life Changes

Well its been awhile again, and wouldn't you know, this time i'll blame my friends, work and games for keeping me away.

Work has been alot of fun lately, not quite as busy as I have been this year, which is good. Its nice to have time to think and clear your thoughts and to focus on the future. My friends have been keeping me very busy at night though, My one friend got me to join him in team fortress 2 online. That has been a long struggle to get me to commit to.( and of course as soon as I do the group he plays with breaks for the holiday) Another of my friends just dragged me to best buy a few hours ago to buy a football game to play with him. And some of my other friends have been getting me to go out with them and my fiancée to all sorts of places.

All in all its been a great few months. The getting engaged, running around alot, finally going out and living life up a bit.

The gaming has been great as well. Assassins Creed, BioShock, Super Mario Galaxies, Mass Effect, the list goes on. Coming up in the next few months I dont have too many new titles to look at, Burnout Paradise is about the only thing on my radar for now. With the writers strike I accutally have some time to look into finishing alot of my old games that I have been putting aside for some time. So its time to see my gamerscore completion ratio close the gap a bit. If any of you would like to play some games, my gamertag is Terin85. Until next time, hopefully it will be sooner than later...
