So, I've decided to leave. I haven't been online that much and I've been working in some other things. So thank you for reading this post and thanks to anyone who has been reading my past posts. Your posts have been very entertaining and they have really been important to me, but it's time to move forward. Your comments have been very useful and helpful. I'll try to delete in some way my account but it seems I can't. Anyways, maybe I'll come back later on with a new user-name, but it isn't very probable. Bye and thank you gamespot.

Saw the movie today, launched yesterday here. The grade I give the movie: C.

I was quite disappointed with this movie, Casino Royal was an outstanding bond movie, and I thought this would be an amazing sequel. I read reviews on it saying it was worse than the prequel, but I thought it wouldn't be that bad, well, it was.

The whole movie surrounded the idea of a ''secret super organization of bad dudes'' and they tried to make this look outstanding, but they didn't get to transmit the feeling of it. The plan of the main evil character looks mysterious the whole movie along, but at the end it is just dumb. The whole Bond's ''vengeance'' for Vesper's death is disappointing.

The sense of reality they gave in the last movie was lost here. Yeah, I know bond movies always have weird gadgets, but dudes moving things in a (Microsoft touch) table in an intelligence agency is just stupid. They also try to give a more human aspect to M, as in the last movie, when we see her with her husband in the bed getting a phone call. But this time we see her moving into one of the geographical locations of one of bonds mission which doesn't fit in the personality of M in my opinion.

The role of the CIA is not as emotive as in the last movie. They try to give a feeling of importance about them with a special operations team (and other things that would spoil the movie for you), but I can say they don't achieve this objective. Also, the Bond girls don't fit in the story at all in my opinion.

The change from scene to scene had little sense, they didn't tell you how Bond or another character got there, but I can understand how the dude in charge of the movie thought this was an ''intelligent'' and ''revolutionary'' way of filming.

In the whole movie Bond didn't mention: ''The name's Bond, James Bond.'', maybe this is a indirect way of the director to suggest the way of making Bond movies is changing, well, they are changing for bad!

The only good I could find in this movie was the action scenes, the theme song and the acting of Daniel Craig.

What did you think about it?

Yesterday I was checking out some videos at 1up and I saw there was a new video of Mirror's Edge, but this one was taken from the PC version. I expected it to be just like the ones made for the console versions, but I was totally wrong. Check it out!: http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/22683.



My reaction: wow!. I've seen what Nvidia was working on about a year ago, but I never saw it being truly used. Well, if you check the vid, you should notice the effect on the plastic covers and the cloth materials. There is also a nice effect with the paper materials (ex: newspapers) which react and move as they should. Also at the part when she is sliding on the crystal roof, the pieces of crystals look totally real. Just fantastic, even better than the console versions in my opinion. So I'm getting it for PC .

I've been playing a lot of Little Big Planet these couple of weeks. This game is fantastic. You can have lots of fun online, alone or with some friends in the same console. I was playing at the ''bunker'' level in the story mode and I could not finish it, I tried like 5 times to get over a section in it but I always died. Well, I played this level again, but this time online and I managed to get over it with the help of the dude who got in. The online levels are awesome and you can have a lot of fun with folks who get in them with you. The other day I played with three friends at my house and we couldn't stop laughing. If you have a PS3 this is definitively a must buy in my opinion.

Now, where the hell is SOCOM?. It seems that the dude in charge of releasing it in Spain is dead or something. It was supposed to release 4 week ago!.I want it!.

I also received a message from DICE giving me a beta key to Battlefield: Heroes. Looks cool for now, I'll talk about it another day, wanna keep the blog short.

That is it. Add my PSN (angelkanarias) if you wanna play some online LBP. See you around.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like angelp11.
angelp11 must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could angelp11 possibly have for not rating a single film?
