So, haven't made a blog in a long time. I don't really have much to tal-- (checks news) Oh God, George Carlin's dead.

George Carlin

Oh no. Didn't expect this. So, legendary comedian Geroge Carlin died of heart failure at age 71 sometime today. I don't know what to say. I liked his work. Even when I was a kid, I liked him. Even though he was that guy who narrated Thomas the Tank Engine and played a really small conductor back when I was a kid, I still liked him. It ended up being a huge shock when I realized that Carlin was that guy from Thomas the Tank Engine. So, I'll just say that he was a great comedian and actor. He had a lot of great things to say about society and I will always respect him for that. And with comedy becoming more and more lowbrow, I don't know if there will ever be another legend like him.

RIP George Carlin May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008

So, I watched some of Camp Rock a few days ago. Hated it. The actors were too dull. There was too much pop music. It was too corny. Honestly, I have a high tolerance for bad movies, but movies like this are just too much. Overall, I give it a 1/10.

And I haven't watched Turn Left yet. I had a cold today, so I didn't have time. I'll probably watch it tomorrow or Tuesday. So, that's it for the blog. Good night.

This morning, I went on a sponsored walk for my school. I mostly went because my teacher was handing out extra credit for going there. Also, free T-shirts. The downside is, I was really, really drowsy when doing it. I only slept for a couple hours the night before. So... yeah.

Since the last blog, I've found some stuff from the news that's just really stupid and nonsensical. Like, those Dunkin Donuts ads getting pulled just because Rachael Ray wore a scarf that kind of looked like an arab headdress. Then, there's the story about Christian groups trying to change the logo for Starbuck's Coffee because it looks "suggestive" and "obscene". Honestly, what's wrong with it? Yeah, the original logo isn't really family-friendly. But, I don't think that most of the customers are aware of it.

Oh, and I saw the Dollhouse trailer. It looks good. Initially, I was kind of confused about what the plot was going to be about. But, it looks promising. Hope this ends up being another hit for Joss.

OBEY TEH DUCK-MUFFIN!

Also, I have to go through another round of MCAS this week. This time, it's biology. Still, biology's not that hard. So, good night and have a great June 1st.

So, it's May 19, 2008. The sun's somewhat shining. Finale Fanfare still rages on. And I don't really know what else to say.

So, haven't made a blog in over two weeks. So, Doctor's Daughter and TUATW were pretty good. So was BSG's Guess What's Coming To Dinner.
***SPOILER***


So I've heard about the Life On Mars remake. Even saw the trailer, which sucks. Really, why make a remake? They could show the original on ABC for a while. I don't think viewers are that stupid to not understand British accents. I don't want to judge just by the trailer, but it looks too stereotypically 70s. And why did they need to remake Gene Hunt? You can't copy the Gene Genie. The Gene Genie

Still, ABC hasn't let me down that much compared to the other networks. There's a slim chance that it might be good.

And like all people from Massachusetts, I have to take the Math section of MCAS this week. So, wish me luck and good night.

Everynoe always thinks of George Carlin as "Mr. Conductor" or the "TtTE Narrator". I did once as well. I watched Shining Time Station when I was a kid. Of course, I forgot about what Mr. Conductor looked like, but when I saw Carlin in a comedy...

There's only one thing good with 4kids and that is its voice actors. Dan Green has voiced a lot of characters like Yugi from Yu-gi-oh. He's also done some work outside of 4kids. Alas, he probably won't do anything for Funimation, Viz or something...

There is a large difference between Disney movies and post-Walt Disney movies. The movies that came when he was alive were fun and free-spirited. They were and still are known as classics. The Disney movies now only exist for money, look at how...
