The Montauk Monster - Hell Visits The Hamptons?
What the…?
Okay so a MONSTER washed up on the shore in Montauk on Long Island, NY right by the Seaside Inn and the internet is buzzing about it! Here’s a picture of the little demon:
Yeah. Let in sink in for a sec. This thing washed up on the beach in Montauk on Long Island. It’s upper body looks like a dog, it’s lower body looks like poultry, it’s got a beak, and...
Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince Teaser...
For real this time guys! Check it out below!
Okay so the movie comes out on November 21st in the US and I think this year I’m going to try to go to the midnight showing. I almost went to the midnight showing of Order Of The Phoenix but for whatever reason I didn’t. Since there’s only three films left (yes three, I’ll explain in the next paragraph if you’re...
Warped Tour 2008 Recap
On July 26th, 2008 Kevin arrived at my house promptly at 7:45. We left, got McDonalds for breakfast, and then we were on our way to the Coliseum! :D
We got there and as usual you just stand around until a line forms (sort of) at the gates to get in! But standing around is fun sometimes, we met up with Joe and Leighann and we just took pictures and stuff haha.
So eventually they let us in and...

Saw V Teaser Trailer, Pendulum Trap, And More!
Here’s the very first Saw V teaser that was shown at Comic-Con this evening! Don’t read any more of this post until you watch it! :D
My opinion? TOO SHORT! God, I want MORE haha, but that’s a good thing. It’s much better to want more than be like “eh, lame” and not want it at all. So I’m excited as hell to see more!
To be honest though I was loving...
Saw V Poster Has Subliminal Homosexual Messages?
LMFAO this is beyond hilarious.

Just read it and look at their evidence and stuff. It’s hysterical, I love it :D

The Dark Knight Review
Click here to watch my review of The Dark Knight!
Okay so I saw The Dark Knight this morning at the midnight screening and it was UNBELIEVABLE. It was amazing amazing amazing! :D If anything it was even better than I was expecting, and obviously everyone was expecting it to be sick already!
Heath Ledger was obviously the highlight of the film, and he was absolutely spectacular as The Joker. He...
Whore Barbie - Available This September!
Yes this is for real, but it’s really called Black Canary Barbie (based on the DC superhero “Black Canary”)!
It’s got lots of religious groups in a fit, with them calling it “filth”. I can’t say I blame them! Imagine being at the register and having to admit that you bought it for your child? Yikes.
I know I wouldn’t let my daughter play with a pint-sized whore! ;D
Wicked!
It’s official! The smash Broadway musical, Wicked, is coming to the big screen! But don’t get TOO excited just yet because you won’t be seeing it next summer. Or the one after that. Or the…well you get it.
It was announced yesterday that Wicked will be turned into a major motion picture through Universal Studio! Marc and Stephen Schwartz are refusing to let Wicked be...
The Dark Knight Midnight Showing
Unfortunately I waited literally ONE DAY too long and the midnight showings are completely sold out at the best theater on Long Island, but I still got tickets to the midnight showing at another really good theater so that’s fine. :D I just need to remember to not be a lazy idiot and buy them as soon as I can from now on! I won’t screw up again, I’ve learned haha.
But...
Prototype161
Prototype161 is a scavenger hunt game that first took place in NYC on Saturday, July 12th. I attended it with Kat and Jill and we had a BLAST! I’ll explain more about it below but the first thing I have to say is that it was extremely fun. :D
The plot of the game was that a woman named Sarah Lonseko was missing and we had to race to find her. Throughout the night we’d meet with...
Saw V Set Pictures
The first pictures from the set of Saw V are finally here!
Nothing to revealing as far as I’m concerned. They’re just pictures of Hackl on the set, one is with Billy, and you can see a familiar set in the background of one (NOT the bathroom haha).
Saw V’s appearance at Comic-Con is on July 24th so until then there probably won’t be much to look at! Afterwards...
Prototype 161 is TONIGHT!
I got the e-mail about the meeting place!
We’re meeting at the south end of Union Square at 6! We’ll get a brief orientation sort of thing and then we’re off on our own for the night to hopefully win this game! I don’t know what we win but I think there’s prizes or something. :D
I’ll take lots of pictures and videos and stuff x]
Okay well now I’m off to...
Prototype 161 Is Tomorrow!
Tomorrow night is the big night! We’re probably going to get there between 3 and 4, get something to eat, and wait to be told where the meeting place is. So far we still haven’t been told and I was asked today for my cell number. Perhaps they’re going to text me with a clue to the first stop? WHO KNOWS BUT IT’S AWESOME! :D
Fear Itself - "Eater"
I watched last week’s episode of Fear Itself today; it was called “Eater”! Sounds nice, right? ;]
It was about a cannibal being held overnight in this police station holding cell. I feel like it took place in Colorado. I don’t know why lmao, but I got the feeling it did because of the way it looked and it was snowing and whatever! That’s unimportant hahah.
So of...
My Morning Routine
I just thought it was interesting that I pretty much do the same thing every morning as soon as I go on the computer. It’s like my morning routine I guess haha.
First I check e-mail, if there’s anything out of the ordinary I’ll take care of it.
Then I check MySpace, YouTube, and Facebook.
Then I check Tumblr and Disqus.
Then I check AdSense, which is how I get paid by...
Prototype 161
It’s finally here! :D
This Saturday is the Prototype 161 game thing in NYC. I really don’t know too much about it but I saw all the secret stuff hidden on the website and it’s getting me more and more pumped! Apparently we’ll be meeting up at a certain point (they’ll contact team members and let them know where) at 6pm and then we all go off with our teams to find...
The Secret Life Of The American Teenager
This is my chance to follow a possibly really good show from the start, so I’m going to stick with it! :D So far it’s semi-awkward, but the pilots usually are and don’t reflect how the rest of the season will be (which I’ve come to learn). FOr example the pilot of Greek, (which still amazing) was nowhere near as good as the rest of the show and season 2! So I’ll give...
Saw V Official Website
The official website for Saw V went online today!
http://www.saw5.com
It doesn’t have much on it yet, but GOD IS IT EXCITING :D
I LOVE that they’re going with the “V” thing instead of “Saw V” so far. Switching it up is a good idea in such a long series of movies. I hope the trailers and stuff barely reveal anything this time around, that’d be so cool...
It Takes A Thief
So recently I’ve been hooked on the show It Takes A Thief. I don’t know why because it really is just a half hour show’s material dragged out to fit in a one hour slot, which makes it a little repetitive sometimes, but I LOVE it. The opening theme and everything is SO AWESOMEEEEEEE :D It gets me so pumped lmao. I hope they do a third season because right now it’s all...
I'm Jealous Of The UK Right Now...
They get the LG Secret and WE don’t! I desperately want to know how much it will cost here and when it will even be available, because I LOVE it. I was going to get an iPhone but I realized it’s just got so many things that I dislike about it that it’s not worth it. It sells easily because it’s an Apple product but luckily I’m able to float above the Apple waters and...
