20 April, 2016, 09:51:00 AM
just heard the new magnificent seven trailer hits the inter web thingy on WEDNESDAY.

whilst i am truly WOW!!! YES OMG!!!
I equally feel

this is risky, can they truly recreate the brilliance of the original.
I will watch on the big screen. top tickets etc, such a movie deserves no less.
BUT.........

how does the hive mind see this.
chris Pratt and Denzil washington, seem pretty good casting to me.

Music / Elvis (the UNDEAD) is back in the biulding?
02 November, 2015, 08:32:51 AM
Just been informed Elvis has new album with a philharmonic orchestra,
out for Christmas of course.

whilst i will likely buy a CD for an older friend,
whom would prefer vinyl to be fair,
I have to ask has zombie culture meets marketing truly invaded everything........

Itunes offered ep 1 free, i was pleasantly surprised, Early Dexter style narrative, computer geek, slightly bonkers or just not able to fit in, dark undertones, some near to the bone statements about socail media. I shall be downloading the next three, to give it reasonable run,
not sure if it made it very long or is a sleeper hit,

any one else into this show.

Film & TV / the Left overs
25 September, 2014, 01:49:21 PM
anyone talking about this?

damn its dark!!
2% of worlds population disappear in an instant.

story picks up three years to the day later,

a cross section of america in a tv show,
Cults, haters,non violent actions, inactions, flawed viewed, dysfunctional families,protests,drugs,poor schooling, one parent families,politicians and armed malitia.
well thats episode 1!!!! :o

I am hooked, either this is the next walking dead as in BLOODY HELL this is great.
or its all going to hell in a hen basket in few weeks.
but right now its a WOW.

plenty of brit actors once again pepper the screen.
worthy of your download space.

Film & TV / FLEMING the man who would be bond. GREAT
02 February, 2014, 12:18:37 PM
found this on iTunes, i take it a BBC uk show from a  while back,
what a great series,

was this a worth my groats investment or does it go off the boil as it gets further in.

Film & TV / INTELLIGENCE . it is M.A.C.H 1 updated
02 February, 2014, 10:18:14 AM
new show USA, on iTunes and other  interweb thingy things

top solider, implanted with a chip, that has pretty good 4G coverage, offering intel on all he sees,using the internet.

decent pilot program, budget for the show looked solid, with some highly paid chinese and cantonese stars, plus a couple of USA tv stars, which suggests contracts and so forth.

ME I AM IN.
how is it like M.A.C.H 1
in a similar way ROBOCOP was Dredd on so many levels.
worth a download, i think this one is for us.

No spoilers, but!!! this could have been a 2000ad character with ease.

Games / The one or the 4? Hive mind guide me
17 January, 2014, 12:32:56 PM
Offer guidance the xbox one or the PS4
As Devons Mummy will state either or not both...

Titan falls and Halo have an edge for me at this point. So leaning to the ONE.
Live is big part of our game playing if that offers any strength either way

Show the path mighty board.

Off Topic / the air show we always wanted to see
31 March, 2012, 03:32:18 PM
http://www.scifiairshow.com/index.html

this was on Facebook, and deserves our viewing, rare to say such a thing.
the airshow we would sell a kidney to attend.

brillant photoshop, of SCI-FI ships in summer show format. brilliant. and worthy of a share.

Games / Star wars Kinect are we impressed yet?
31 March, 2012, 03:17:33 AM
launch party event in Singapore rest of world four days prior to April 3rd launch, max online exposure.

VERDICT.........

WE ARE!!!
its not overly adventurous, lots of gimmick including dance? ::)? which i am sure i will never play, (unless house is empty.

but overall, bloody fun, some easy some ok.
HELL YEH! light sabre fight,
we wanted to be able to use our motion sound light sabers, which we purchased for our children as gifts, and have yet to allow them touch.

question was raised,
MAN SAID YES IF YOU WANT TOO. no demo, but crowd there to evaluate the game for their children where generally happy with response.

anyone else tried yet.
pre-orders comes with mini figure. (no word on special download content for pre order mentioned) normally does though.

Noticed that GAME in the uk was in trouble.
so thought i would ask the question.
the next generation of consoles which are very likely to go CLOUD. will this be the death Knell for game shops, in the way the Record/CD shop has all but disappeared, given HMV are also in big trouble.

I like the physical game, BUT I cloud all my music these days, so the jump to my console doing the same is not a big issue.
am i truly incorrect, or is this the beginning of the end for such physical medium resellers, Book shops also suffering of course.

Games / Sounds familiar?
17 February, 2012, 05:57:25 AM
Rebellion you sit on this stuff. You own this stuff, you don't need to look far

XBoX arcade Nexius my web-fu not strong, but the sales pitch! As if Tharg wrote it? Will cut and paste and try to add link later. But a shooter, with global entertainment viewing
across the galaxy. While we did not, invent this sci fi genre we have a wealth of scripts characters to support it, imagine the $$$$ in selling avatars with history, back story and the potential for old graphic novel reprints.

Film & TV / Alcatraz (free on iTunes, US store still)
24 January, 2012, 03:18:46 AM
NICE!
Sam Neil,cool actor .in charge of a covert government dept, former inmates back from 1963. with superior knowledge and training. main character female whom thought her grandad was a guard now its seems was an inmate.

dark and creepy enough to be entertaining,sci fi influence with a cop show backing.
I shall be plonking down the groats for the first 5 and see if it lives up to the potential or becomes same same same. got potential.

Off Topic / KINDLEs about to buy. tell me whats great
03 January, 2012, 07:48:22 AM
Grandma and Grandad of Devons Daddy first born,
wish to purchase number 1 grandson a KINDLE/KOBO or what ever.

seeing so many here are speaking highly of such devices,
is the kindle the Ipod of the electronic book, as in BLOODY AWESOME, or are others as good.

he is into tom clancy,Andy Mc Nabb,spy novels, and thrillers. tends to read a novel in 4 -6 days. hence book shelves now straining. he has started getting stuff on his itouch.

guide my non techy parents to heap the greatest magical tablet upon their cherished male grandchild. oh great HIVE MIND.
