A Game of Thrones (series, 2011)
this is quality stuff, and even the opening credits do the project...well...credit. I'm enjoying it a lot. the finale is this weekend. that said, the book is 100x better. It's pretty obvious why: there's a lot more going on in 500+ page novel than can reasonably be packed into ten 55 minute episodes. I take it they intend to produce a book per season. it's understandable and, as I said, works. but I would have taken a more methodical approach. I wouldn't feel compelled to "catch up" with the books. rather, spend a couple seasons on one book. it's an epic. they're long. they just are. that's why they're called epics.

I decided to watch Paul and i'm glad i did, i really enjoyed it, it was pretty consistantly funny througout, Pegg and Frost seemed to fit the roles pretty well, and Rogen sounded quite fitting as an alien who is a bit of a slacker

yeah. I liked PAUL. I AM NUMBER FOUR is paint-by-the-numbers sci-fodder. but i was mildly entertained. reminded me of a better, more action packed version of ROSWELL (series).

i see, i remember that show back when i was a teen, season 1 finished and i was giving it all "can't wait for the next season to start, it's gonna be awesome" then the next season rolled around and i really couldn't even give enough of a shit to start watching it again...

Probably give i am number four a go tonight then, although i also have The Man From Earth to watch, and i'm quite interested in it's premise... An impromptu retirement party for a professor leads him to tell his friends that he is actually immortal and has been alive for 14,000 years

mind you, I had very low expectations, and I'm not saying it was great. apparently, the idea that hal jordan would imagine a gun type of weapon is blasphemy, and he does so at least three times.

saw last ep of GAME OF THRONES s1 last night. gotta wait a whole year just for another 10 eps. :(

oh well. new book in July. :)

i watched The Man From Earth (2007) last night and really enjoyed it, i found it very well made and the acting was pretty good considering, i would recommend it to anyone, it's one of those films that opens up debate afterwards but in a good way not a bad way

Bad Teacher (2011)
bad movie. lots of laughs though. all the laughs are incredibly cheap, and it's a pretty raunchy movie. it also kind of just ends. but I did laugh out loud quite a few times at a lot of the absurd and raunchy fodder. so there's that.

I just thought i remembered hearing somewhere that they split up, i may be wrong though

Watched 3 movies yesterday

TimeCop
EuroTrip and
Thunder In Paradise 2

Thunder in paradise 1 (i watched the night before) was cheesy early 90s hulk hogan fun, the 2nd one wasn't, it was cheesy, but it lacked the fun part, however i do always enjoy timecop and eurotrip, the latter being somewhat of an annual summer tradition between me and my close friends
