BLU-RAY FTW!!!!!
It's been a while since my last post. I decided to go Blu-Ray last week and I have to say, I'm not disappointed at all for that decision. I bought a LITEON Blu-Ray drive for my PC from CompUSA and it's stellar. It's only a player, not a burner, but for 65 bucks, who's complaining? I'm not. I picked up The Dark Knight on Blu-Ray, and I can tell you now, the difference between DVD and Blu-Ray is night and day. Blu-Ray discs can hold up to 50 gigs of information, so that allows movie companies to up the visual quality of their films by....a LOT. And it shows. The Dark Knight is one movie that truly benefits from Blu-Ray. The picture quality is sharper than anything I have seen at full-screen before. Christopher Nolan used Imax cameras to film certain scenes and as a result the aspect ratio(the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen) changes periodically for city shots and big action scenes. For some, that could be a distraction, but I found it to be breathtaking actually. I compared The Dark Knight Blu-Ray to the DVD version and there is simply no comparison. The Blu-Ray version of the film is simply better in every respect. You also get special features on Blu-Ray that you simply can't get with standard DVDs. I also picked up 300 and Superman Returns on Blu-Ray. Both look good, but are no match for The Dark Knight. I also picked up Terminator 2: Skynet Edition, but that movie simply would not work on my player. It would start and PowerDVD would simply quit. So, that's 22 bucks down the drain for that one, but 3 out of 4 ain't bad. I'm not giving up on DVD completely as I have a collection of nearly 400 DVDS, so I can't replace them all. That would be too expensive. But for movies like Star Trek and Terminator Salvation, Blu-Ray is where I'm going. Any new movie that comes out I will buy on Blu-Ray. Dragon Dynasty's releases are probably going to be the only movies that I will get on DVD. So......it's official: Blu-Ray fucking rocks. GO FOR IT!!!!

Big families FTL!!!!
I don't get it. Why the fuck would anybody want a gigantic family? 4 kids or more? Why? Unless you are filthy rich, the more kids you have, the more of a strain it would be on your finances. Here's what really fucking bugs me about these fucking families. The parents don't control their kids. They don't spank them, they just send them to time out. What the fuck kinda punishment is that? I got spanked, smacked, and punched as a kid, and I turned out alright...............sorta.......kinda. Seriously, kids these days need a good spanking. Seriously: Fuck the psychologists who say the kids will suffer psychological damage. That is BULLSHIT!!!! If I ever have any kids, the ones that behave will be the ones that are rewarded. The ones that don't behave will know the belt.

Michael Jackson....LOLWUT?!
I gotta get this off my chest right now. Michael Jackson's death has been covered ENOUGH. Yeah, he was influential back during the 80s and early 90s, but after that, he ceased to be relevant. Nobody but his fans really gave a shit. Now that he's dead, every single news channel is covering his passing and funeral in one form or another. Fuck that. Where's the coverage of the honored dead from Iraq and Afghanistan?! Huh?! What about them and the sacrifices they have made to make this country safer? These people died for YOU, so you could mourn the loss of a SINGER. Where's the honor in that? That smacks of disrespect for our soldiers. Yeah, I understand that people don't want to see the news coming from the Middle-East. I understand, it's depressing, it's upsetting. But does Michael Jackson deserve MORE coverage than that? No. Yeah, the first couple of days, maybe. But weeks?! Come on.

Why....just WHYY?!?!
Why did I start blogging? Hmmm......gee, I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm following a trend of some sorts. It's a possibility. Or maybe it's because it's something I FELT I needed to do. Getting there. Or it could be, because I need to get my frustrations out, and putting them to words helps. THAT'S it. It's therepeutic. It feels good. It's much better to verbally abuse somebody than it is to actually beat the fucking shit out of them. Mostly because you don't get arrested for calling somebody a yeast-infected codpieced son of a dog-whore. It's really great when you can call somebody something they've never heard before. The reaction is amazing. The look on their face when you call them a knob-slobbering gutterslut is priceless.
