Sing a-long if you know the words.
"Hey, this was really fun
We hope you liked it too
Seems like we've just begun
When suddenly we're through
Goodbye, goodbye, good friends, goodbye
Cause now it's time to go
But, hey, I say, well, that's OK
Cause we'll see you very soon, I know
Very soon, I know
Goodbye, goodbye, good friends, goodbye
And tomorrow, just like today
(Goodbye - today)"

Double Crit Me: Its a Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood
'There's a house on my block
That's abandoned and cold
Folks moved out of it a
Long time ago
And they took all their things
And they never came back
Looks like it's haunted
With the windows all cracked
And everyone call it
The house, the house where
Nobody lives"

Art Review: Time of the Apes


Monday, April 30, 2012
Martians came to earth to mess with human beacause Mars sucks so they told everyone that Emeralds are all the color grue until it is the year 2000 then they are green again, and for some rasin the humans beleived them. So now now its past 2000 and people are still talking about it and I think its supposed to be about how meanings can change.
Meanwhile on Mars, aliens are probably hi fiving the Martian who came up with the idea

How have vidya' games changed art?
Like all things, games have done some good, and of course some bad.
The good being games that have great story, fresh concepts, or actually have meaning.
The flip side.
We also get games that have reused cliches. Bland,or tasteless games that are just the same game repackaged thing that will sacrifice story and depth for some "sweet ass explosions" or "lots of tits" that gives the industry a bad image.

Art Review: I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream.
109 years after the end of World War III, The super computer "AM". Has killed off all of humanity, leaving only 5 strangers alive to torture for his own pleasure. Harlan Ellison's "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" is short but memorable story that plays heavily on morality and the human psyche. The story is told from the point of view from one of the unlucky survivors Ted, arguably the "sanest" of the group as the others have either lost sight of what they were or in the case of another character Benny, has lost all of his past self and his humanity after being turned into a beast of horrors. The story does a great job of putting you in the place of Ted as he experiences the grotesque events unfold.
Its hard to explain more without giving away most of the good parts. But the short story is a definite good read if your looking for something different and interesting.

Deal out jacks or better
On a blanket by the stairs
I'll tell you all my secrets
But I lie about my past
So send me off to bed forever more"

Violence:"Murder Simulators"
I found this graph to be a bit interesting considering the amount of controversy these titles stirred. I guess the moral guardians may be a bit off about video games causing violence.

Art Review: Paranoia xp
"Are you unhappy, citizen? May I be of assistance? The Computer is your friend."
Paranoia XP is another instalment of the beloved role-playing series. Players take the role of troubleshooters, an "elite" (heavy quotations on elite) group of secret police living in the Dystopia Utopia of Alpha Complex. Players must complete objectives from the beloved caretaker of Alpha Complex, The Computer (AKA The giant eye ball on the big screen). Battling mutants, commies, and the most dangerous enemy of all Mutant Commies. Players themselves must also hide their secret identities of being mutants and/or being a part of a secret society devoted to taking control of Alpha Complex. Players are encouraged to lie, cheat, and betray help and work together with
their friends at the best opportunity,The following review is above RED-Clearence, failure to follow clearence protocols will result in termination. Have a nice day
Gamemasters must use the players as toys, to be beaten with a stick and given a treat afterward for their determination and creativity. Gamemasters are all knowing and are never to be questioned by the players, players should never know the rules and should be punished for use of tactics, meta-gaming, or strategy in games.
All in all Paranoia xp is a fun twisted time that will entertain most any gameing groups as long as they can deal with the implausibility and chaos of it.
"Please report for termination immediatley. Thank you for your cooperation. Have a nice day."
Paranoia xp: 5/5

Art Review: The Fly (1986)
On the flip-side, while the original was a mystery and a bit more subtle. David Cronenberg's version takes a new view on the story, turning it into a tragedy and more of a monster flick, which is a good take on the story, rather than just doing a shot by shot remake or just recycling the same story. There are some simularities, the same setup of "scientist mutates with fly" is still there. But instead of a sudden and dramatic change right away, were given a slower but still horrific metamorphasis as we see the main character Seth Brundle ( played by Jeff Goldblum) slowly loses his humanity and changes into something new.
The Fly 4/5

Art Review: The Fly (1958)
Its hard for movies to age, this is ecspecially true for horror movies. What was once horrifying back in yester-year, can become cheesy and comedic now. Fortunately, this is not the case. The Fly is a classic retelling of the famous "scientist with a transporter accidentally switches arm and head with a common house fly". It's all from the point view from the scientist's wife as she is discussing the tale to her husbands friend (played by good old Vincent Price) as she explains what happened. Theres a good deal of suspence in the film too, and the growing suspense of wondering what the scientist's actions will be and how deformed he has become keeps almost anyone glued to the screen.

Art in the News: Tim and eric movie hits theaters this March
The comedy duo, Tim and Eric. Will be revealing their movie (which is currently on demand) to theaters across America. The plot involes the titular duo gaining a billion dollars to use for their dream movie, only for their dream to run off track causing them to lose all the money. I'm pretty excited for this movie to come out and I will admit the show is a guilty pleasure of mine. A lot of critics have complained about the weird humor and gross out moments, but I'm sure it will appease its cult fanbase.

Art Review: Vincent Price's Voice
Today I thought I would do something different, instead of a movie or music review, I am going review the voice of the late great Vincent Price. Vincent Price's voice is reknown for its sublety and eerie charm that has made it trademark of many movies. Many claim that Vincent Price's voice is able to raise the dead and summon vampires. If Bella Lugosi and Lawn Chaney Jr. Starred in a movie (and Boris Karloff made a suprise appearence) with Vincent Price's voice, whole countries would crumble with fear and would die of sheer fright. That is why I'm giving Vincet Price's voice
Vincent Price's Voice: 5/5

Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" has been dubbed "The Citizen Kane of bad movies" and it definitely lives up to its title. The low budget film written,directed,produced and even played by Tommy Wiseau, has gained a large cult following and since 2003 the creator has held screening tours for fans to see and make fun of. The story is pretty bland but the real attraction here is Tommy's character Johnny, the cheesy lines, and the unintentional akward moments.
The Room: 3/5
