[X] My Assistant

I came across Kids Baking Championship on Food Network as I was changing the channels a few weeks ago and got hooked on it. Valerie Bertinelli and some other guy are the judges and it's a cute wholesome show. I don't like kids but the ones on this show are likeable and not bratty at all. It's a fun show, much more relaxed and with fewer contestants than MasterChef Junior.

Mmm......a two week break in new x-files eps, kinda sucks, but I don't blame 'em for stringing it out a little.

All these great American blockbusters are going to be coming out and I'm going to have to wait for them to cross the Pacific. Why'd I have to leave the country this year, of all years?

Yes! I remembers now! The old film I that watched as a kid was called "Raise the Titanic"

This film is supposedly made by the animation talents that worked on Shrek and Shark Tales. That's what was written on the DVD cover, but judging from this trailer, the finished product - both the GC and animation quality - looked something like that belonged to TV in the 90's.

Came across the movie Ghost Town (2008) on TV and watched it. Turned out it was really good. Not the type of film I would purposely seek out but I'm glad I gave it a try, it was really funny.

Having watched more clips from The Prodigy, I could only come up with 2 explanations for the worse-than-expected quality of the animation, CG and sound FX: the top heads of the production house either lied about their Dreamworks & Disney backgrounds, or they were being truthful but had almost zero resources to work with after they established their company - only 6 animators were employed, and most likely amateurs (back in 2008/09).

I watched the movie White Noise 2: The Light (2007) on TV and yet again it was about someone who had a near-death experience and when he came back, could see the dead. It wasn't humorous like Ghost Town but I thought it was rather strange that I'd see two unrelated movies with a similar theme. Freaked me out a bit.

Plenty of entertainment for me on the coming CNY holiday. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

"Why did I get into another argument on how harmless loli is? I knew it would end the same way as all of the other arguments; me defending it, them claiming I'm worse than [insert dictator]"

Am I coming down with another cold?

This review is one of many I was reading on Wikipedia about Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë as it was released at the time under the pseudonym Ellis Bell:

Graham's Lady Magazine wrote "How a human being could have attempted such a book as the present without committing suicide before he had finished a dozen chapters, is a mystery. It is a compound of vulgar depravity and unnatural horrors."

Wow. I tried reading that book a long time ago but couldn't get past the old-timey English language style it was written in. Seen several of the movie adaptations, my favorite being the classic 1939 version with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon, even though it isn't true to the novel. In the 1992 version, Ralph Fiennes played a very creepy and vicious Heathcliff.

This explains the character.

As a proto vampire novel

At one stage Heathcliff is described as a vampire, and it has been suggested that both he and Catherine are in fact meant to be seen as vampires (or at least as vampire like personalities in "Heathcliff as Vampire," James Twitchell argues that Heathcliff is meant to be seen as vampire-like, without actually being one[13]).[14] Leo Bersani claims that desire in the novel is "essentially vampiristic."

I wonder what this ("pop up store")is about? Curious.

You should ask about that in Tech Chat. In my browsers, AdBlock Latitude or UBlock Origin wipes them out and there's AdBlocker for YouTube. But I think what you need help with is something different so ask the nerds over there. Make a thread for that topic or just ask in the What is the last thing you thought? tech edition thread.

I can't seem to remember half the music that I listened to as a kid, which is unfortunate because sometimes I just feel like I listen to the same stuff over and over again.

about a story I wrote many years ago involving battles among my action figures I had. It was quite long. They only had the powers/weapons & skills that they had in thier respected cartoons & videgames aswell as any weapons & accessories that came with them as toys. If I didn't own the figure then they didn't feature in the story. I had even wroye a script, direction & what tunes I would use in certain scenes. It was a lot of older figures (he-man & such) vs newer figures like metal gear solid, tekken, resident evil etc.

I may elaborate more at some point, it wasn't just fighting, there was adult scenes (like rape plots, betrayals and such)

I don't want to listen to the music I listened to as a kid, what I listen to now is the best for me

The House of Magic - nothing spectacular but entertaining and well made. I also noticed the camera movements & first person perspective in some scenes which suggests this film was made for 3D in mind.

Add: Another thing. The VA for Thunder & Dylan, Murray Blue sounded nearly like Cathy Waseluck.

The store is a DC Fan's dream come true.
