I had an odd feeling this weeks coverage of the Democratic National Convention was going to inspire the crew at The Daily Show to create a bit more humorous mayhem than usual…
I think this rather surreal biographical look at Barack Obama, entitled Barack Obama: He Completes Us was leaps and bounds beyond what I anticipated.
Brace yourselves, then enjoy.
Make note, this one should get blown up to mantle-size.
Regular updates to return soon. Just let me get acclimated to the new day job, and then content. Sweet, sweet content.
Freshly announced for this fall, SEGA’s bringing back the much-loved (here at least) HOUSE OF THE DEAD franchise, with The House of the Dead: Overkill for the Nintendo Wii.
Of note, the title will feature a style similar to that seen in Grindhouse, with a mixture of zombie shooting action, and b-movie exploitation.
Suffice to say, I am THERE. Check out the trailer!
We’ve made no bones about three things here at Blast-O-Rama…
1. Love Robert Downey Jr.
2. Love Marvel more than DC.
3. Think The Dark Knight is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
So I’m sure you can imagine the mixed feelings I had when I read this quote from Downey regarding The Dark Knight…
“My whole thing is that that I saw ‘The Dark Knight’. I feel like I’m dumb because I feel like I don’t get how many things that are so smart. It’s like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I’m like, ‘That’s not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.’ I loved ‘The Prestige’ but didn’t understand ‘The Dark Knight’. Didn’t get it, still can’t tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I’m like, ‘I get it. This is so high brow and so fucking smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.’ You know what? Fuck DC comics. That’s all I have to say and that’s where I’m really coming from.”
Is Downey firmly supporting his new major employers? Or did he really have an issue with TDK? YOU MAKE THE CALL! (insert NFL music here…)
So a clip from THE SPIRIT has leaked to the web, straight from last month’s San Diego Comic Con.
In a word: Ugh.
What do you think?
From this week’s premiere of Star Wars: The Clone Wars…
I’m fairly sure Lucas saw the early reviews of the flick…
As an “agnostic gamer” this generation (meaning I own all three systems), it’s certainly nice to have the pick of any of the exclusive titles coming to gaming world.
However, being that XBox Live is so much nicer than PSN, and more of my friends own XBoxes (meaning that if the title has online play, I’ll want to go with MS on that title), my PS3 has been collecting dust since Metal Gear Solid 4 hit.
This is all about to change, though, with the lil’ platformer that could…Little Big Planet.
Hitting the PS3 this October, LBP intends to not just give Sony’s black box a platformer worth playing (something that I feel has been greatly needed this generation, Mario Galaxy aside), but add an incredible online presense, with a level creator on a scale never seen before, and the ability to both share and play levels with fellow gamers online.
Let this new preview from Amazon do the talking…
And if that wasn’t enough, you can even get the ultra adorable lead character (seen above) Sackboy…to look like the ultra badass hero from God of War…KRATOS!
Little Big Planet hits shelves this October. And I’ll be there day one.
