GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Monday, May 12, 2008

Woo! Im still on my extended vacation in Liberty City and have not really blogged much so here is something quick. Before we get too far into it I just want to say GTA IV is awesome and it deserves all the 10's it has gotten! The main single player really was a Tour De Force into the world of crime. I love how they never glorified being a gangster. Any one who didn't die wishes they were dead by the end of the game. It is truly a fantastic story. Ok we are here to talk about movies though. For a long time now I felt the last few summer movie line up's have sucked big time! It all started with the chronicles of Riddik. Big disappointment! This summer tho I am pumped and the first 2 movies on my list did not disappoint. So lets get cracking.

Iron Man

Iron Man took a bit of the safe route. It was not quite for kids but not quite for adults either. They found a nice middle ground. But you can tell some of the events in the movie had the kiddies more in mind then the adults. Over all it was really good. Robert Downey Jr one of my favorite actors did a fantastic job as Tony Stark. It had plenty of fantastic action and enough witty dialog to keep me entertained. 8/10

Speed Racer

Here is a flick I thought looked just stupid. I don't really consider myself a Speed Racer fan. I did watch the Cartoon a bit when I was kid but not as much as say GI Joe or something. How ever, some times going to see a film you think will be stupid is the best when it surprises you. Speed Racer is just awesome! It has fantastic action and is just perfects for adults and kids alike. It was a great ****c tale for Hero rising up against all odds I had a lot fun with this one. 10/10

Next up are the movies im waiting for and I hope don't suck!

Indian Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull

I have been a long time Indy fan. Oh I remember being a little kid running around my house with a hat similar to the one Indy wears and a Whip in my hand (yeah it was a real whip too) good times! So I have high hopes for this one, It does look awesome though!

The Dark Knight

I wasn't completely sold when I found out Christian Bale was set to play Batman in Batman Begins. I am now! He does a fantastic job in leading the dubble life as Bruce Wayne/ Batman. Christopher Nolan is also a really fantastic Director. I have really enjoyed all his movies so far. Not to mention Heath Ledger as the Joker just seems like going to be awesome

Hancock

Photobucket

Yeah ok it does look a bit stupid. But the prospect of Will Smith playing a drunk super hero is just too good to pass up. I also still enjoy Will Smith, I know a lot people hate him but I just shrug that off. Fresh prince = Awesome!

The X-Files: I Want To Believe

Photobucket

The trailer for the film just came out yesterday night and I still have no clue what it's about other then its not about aliens. I'm long time fan of the X-Files so I have high hopes for this one as well.

Well there you have it, My list of top summer movies. The first 2 where awesome so I hope the rest follow suit.
