I'm Back!

After a long time, I'm back, and this time, I won't skimp out on you. I will post at least once a week starting Sunday. So look out for that. Ok. Bye.

Poptropica - The Online Game

Alright, this is one of the most fun, hardest, most time consuming games I've ever played. You take control of a randomly generated player and go on various quests to help the people. They are constantly working on new levels, and a new member would have a hard time finishing all the levels before a new one comes about. If you are going to want to play definitely sign up; it's free. I suggest using another website such as poptropicasecrets.com if you really want to play more than 2 levels, because they are very confusing, and the walkthroughs are very helpful. I give this game an 8 out of 5.

Catching Fire - Book Two of the Hunger Games Series

I'm pretty disappointed in this book. I was told by many people that it was the best in the series. They were wrong. It had tons of potential to be one of the greatest books of all time. According to me. Anyway, it didn't seem to have the same spark as the first book. Maybe my expectations were too high. I'm not sure, but it wasn't stellar. I reread it after my first reading, and it still didn't meet most of my lower standards. I give the second book a 6 out of 5.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules - The Movie

I enjoyed this movie a lot. It suprised me how the plot was and wasn't true to the book. It may be the fact that I read the books a year ago, but it felt like the plot had changed. The acting isn't great, but Devon Bostick, who plays Rodrick, is pretty hilarious. I give the 2nd movie in this series an 8 out of 5.

The Hunger Games - Book One of the Hunger Games series

Ok. This series will make you want to read books, something nothing has done for me in a looooooooong time. It is literature at its best. The characters are really interesting, and the way everything happens just is incredibly amazing. By this I mean how one thing follows another in a way that keeps the reader interested. Suzanne Collins's newest book gets a 9.5 out of 5.

Rango - The Movie

Wow. This is definetly one of the best movies I've ever seen. The animation is amazing, the things look like what they actually are, and the voice acting is REALLY good. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this movie. It was incredably amazing. Period. I give it a 10 out of 5.

Mega Python VS Gatoroid - The TV Movie

Wow. This TV movie is really...unique? I'll use that. I personally know one of the main characters, and a side character. The acting is good, but the effects? Bad with a capital B. It is clearly fake, especially when it is partially above the water. Also, it is completely unrealistic. They blow up something beneath a bridge, but the bridge doesn't blow up. I give this a 7.5 out of 5.

More Thanksgiving jokes

I want to wish everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving. Here are some more jokes to tell at the table. Check out last year's jokes for some more ideas. A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one fresh enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, "Don't you have fresh turkeys?" The stock boy answered, "But they are all dead. Now how can I make them take a bath?"

What did the mama turkey say to her naughty son?

What will a turkey with a dramatic bent of mind say to another turkey on Thanksgiving morning?
Ans- To be or not to be roasted, that is the question.

The pro football team had just finished their daily practice session when a large turkey came strutting onto the field. While the players gazed in amazement, the turkey walked up to the head coach and demanded a tryout. Everyone stared in silence as the turkey caught pass after pass and ran right through the defensive line. When the turkey returned to the sidelines, the coach shouted, "You're terrific!!! Sign up for the season, and I'll see to it that you get a huge bonus." "Forget the bonus," the turkey said, "All I want to know is, does the season go past Thanksgiving Day?"

Madden '11-The Video Game

Not really much to review here. Another Madden game with updated rosters, better graphics, and current records. However, they did change the kicking style, which I personally like more than the old way. I think it's pretty obvious when the cuts in the commentary are. I think the new stuff doesn't compare as well to the old styles, but I like it. I give this videogame an 8.5 out of 5.

Sabotaged-The Book

This book is the 3rd in the Missing series by Margret Peterson Haddix, and you need to read the 1st two books to understand it. The first is Found,the second is Sent. This series is probably going to consist of more books, so be on the look out for them. It is a little slow, but once it picks up pace it gets really good. I rate this book an 8 out of 5.

New Summoner Wars

By the title of this post you probably know what I'm talking about. The new Summoner Wars stuff is finally out! Well the game isn't able to purchased in stores yet, but if you preordered it you probably already have it like I do. Once again Plaid Hat games has released a Summoner Wars game this time, you can play as the evil Fallen Kindom led by Ret-Talus, or the Vanguards led by Sara Eldwyn. You could also play with the starter packs to create really epic battles. How ever you play, I give these booster packs a 9 out of 5.

The Last Airbender-The Movie

I'm one of those people who saw the tv show for The Last Airbender, so I'm going to say it's not superbly good. But it was a good movie. So I'll give them credit for that. The effects are great, so I give M. Night Shyamalan's newest film an 8 out of 5.

How to Train your Dragon-Book VS Movie

How to Train your Dragon is a great book, and a good movie, but they are different. 1st off, in the book the dragons are something that are caught regularly where Hiccup lives. 2ndly, Hiccup has no love life, unlike the movie, where he meets the viking of his dreams. Also, there is no dragon god leader thing. There's also other reasons, but it would take a while to say them all. But not that it was a bad movie. They both were good. But in this case, the book gets a 9 out of 5, the movie 8.5 out of 5, so the book is better.

Toy Story 3-The Movie

Toy Story 3 is a must see animation this year! If you are able to preorder online do so, because lines will be long for this movie.
Toy Story 3 recaptures the essence of its story told in numbers 1 & 2. If you liked the first two Toy Storys, you'll love this. For some people who saw all 3 movie in the movie theater, you may cry at the end. I rate this a 9 of 5!!!!

Avatar-The Movie

This movie is the coolest I've seen all year! It won its fair share of Oscars and it has a good message. For those who have seen the movie, its good, isn't it? For those who haven't, see it when it comes out on DVD.   It has good actors and even better special effects. Here are some good pics from the making.

This action thriller gets a 10 out of 5! 

Pendragon-The Book Series

This is a nonstop thriller, and can be read by anyone, boy or girl. I read the first one, and then I was hooked. I finished the series, and I have introduced a couple to the series. One of them finished the first two in a day or so, and she too is hooked. I have never read a book that is so good, and has a great story line. I think DJ Machale, the author, wasn't expecting so many people to read and love his books. This is a 10 out of 5.

The Adventurers-The Game

This is a fun game with an Indiana Jones feel. You are trying to collect as much treasure as you can and get out of the runes. There are many things that allow you to die or be trapped. Walls might close in on you and sandwich you to death. A giant boulder could crush you or trap you. You might risk going over lava to get ahead of the boulder. You might be on an old bridge and it could snap under you. Or you could fail getting off a river, leading you to death by a bottomless waterfall. If you get out alive, you should be proud. Luckily, you get another explorer if the 1st on dies. I give this an 8 out of 5.

Summoner Wars-The Game

I had a lot of fun playing this game. It has phenomenal art, it's easy to play, and it has a good concept. The rules are really easy to understand. There are four teams-Elves, Goblins, Dwarves, and Orcs. The Orcs are all about strategy. The goblins can appear all over, making them hard to deal with. This is a definite 10 out of 5. Enjoy it yourself!

A Christmas Carol-The Movie

This movie is really funny at some parts, but if you are young, you might get scared. It startled me a couple times, but it was very good. I only had one problem with the movie. The sound is blasting loud. The CGI is really good, and unlike some other movies, the eyes looked great. Jim Carrey plays three characters, even though most sources say he plays four. I give this movie an 8 out of 5.
