Underrated animated movies

I’ve been feeling very sick since Monday, and what do I do when I am sick? Watch old animated movies. For me, there is no better cure. I mentioned a few of the movies I watched to some friends and to my suprise, alot of them never heard of these movies. Or they heard of them vaguely. So I deided to make a  list of movies I think are underrated, in no real order. I just write as I go. So let’s go!

Movie; 9

I’ve been finding alot of good movies lately haven’t I? Don’t worry, I go back to the shitty ones soon enough. Too be honest I didn’t want to review another movie that I liked, just for the purpose of it not being entertaining enough. But I found the movie ’9′ so well done. That I just had to. 

Good movie; Mary & Max

When you live in country like the Netherlands. Most movies in the cinema come from Hollywood. Big effects, huge budgets, top notch actors, you name it. Once in a while they show a different kind of movie, a great movie, from another country but it’s a rare thing to happen. Even if it happens it’s shown for a week or two in an arthouse cinema.

Why am I talking like some stupid hipster fool? Because I am going to review a great movie I’ve found; Mary & Max. It’s an Australian movie from 2009. I found it laying somewhere in the local DVD shop. For only 2 euros I decided to give it a chance. The cover looked intresting anyway.

Shark Night 3D

A movie about sharks eating people? That is impossible to fuck up right? You take a bunch of dumb teenagers, but them near water and wait for a few sharks to come and take a bite. Sure it wouldn’t be a great movie but it would be worth the watch.

Shark Night is non of this. It’s a worthless piece of shit that is both a waste of money and time. It has a stupid plot twist, an even dumber ending. Shitty actors and horrible special effects. I am so pissed off about this because the director also directed (directors gonna direct) Final Destination, a movie I really did enjoy. So how bad is it? Let’s dive right in and find out.

Much to do; Little time

So if you are a user of the internet. (If you aren’t sorry, the Armish shop is next door) you might be familiar with the 30 day challenges. They started about a year (or two, whos counting?) on Tumblr. You (yes you) Got a question everyday awnserd that question as honest as possible. Some included fandoms, others fashion, others required you to take photos. And here I am to go and honour them, but instead of getting of my lazy ass every single day and boring my Tumblr followers and Facebook Friends to death with a picture and a story every single day, I decided to post it here. Yes, all at once!

So grab a seat and read shit nobody cares about, here is my first 30 day challenge in a day! Disney!

What do we know?

Aah, movies and tv. Let’s face it; they are pretty much our best friends right? We cry with them, we eat with them, we laugh with  them and they are there during out most precious moments in life. And soon our kids will enjoy them. They are timeless and can be enjoyed by everyone (unless you are an Armish, in which case, get off the computer, you are not allowed here)

But what do we really KNOW about the precious cinema and home entertainment. Ok… we know alot. Either Wikipedia or IMDB told you already. But never the less, I’ve collected some intresting facts about the worlds favourite past time! So turn off that TV and remove yourself from the cinema right now, cause here we go!

Wigtastic wigs!

As a fan of anime and a country full of conventions (no really, we have alot and they are all so much fun) it wasn’t long before I started to visit them myself. And what comes with cons? Cosplay ofcourse! Though not mandatory at conventions, it is populair and I do sure like it. Sadly I can’t grow and color my hair at will and what do we do when we can’t do that? That’s right kids! We buy wigs!!

Movie Review: Puss in Boots

Pop quiz time: What do you do when you are running out of ideas for your very succesfull movie-series!

No, Nobody?

You make a Spin-off of course! You take one or more of the characters from the succesfull movie and give him or her one of their own! Disney has done it many times and they failed at it jsut as much! So did Dreamworks do better job with their PG-13 titled movie Puss in Boots?  I would love to say no, but I would be lying.

Game Review; Skyward Sword

The Legend of Zelda; a title of a series that everybody knows. Even if you never played a game, or you like different games. This name will ring a few bells. It’s first game was just called the Legend of Zelda and was released in 1986 and as with most things; aging is hard! But the money cow must be milked every two years or so and that’s why we got Skyward Sword from Daddy Nintendo in 2011. Is it worth the buy and was it worth the wait for a Wii-Zelda game. Let’s find out

Top 15 stocking fillers!

Picking a gift for a gamer is hard. First they are quite expensive. Secondly there are so many games it can make your head twirl as a non-gamer. Being a friend of many non-gamers I decided to help them out and make a handy list of games that I personally would recommend to fill a gamers stocking with! So here they are in no particulary order!
