AW Movie Review: The Big Year

TBY Checklist 530x409 AW Movie Review: The Big Year

I know this isn’t really headlining the current event pages but when we were invited to a screening of “The Big Year”, we turned it down due to lack of time and interest. Just by looking at the cast, you expect a gut busting comedy whether your into Steve Martin’s vintage style of humor or Jack Black’s over-the-top physical comedy…you won’t really get either, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

I checked out some of the reviews of this film dating back to its original theatrical release and they weren’t all that great. Rotten Tomatoes rounded it to a 39% and that will usually deter me from seeing a film. When the Blu Ray was announced for a release date of January 31st, I decided to give it a spin and see what it was all about.

The first thing the viewer needs to remember when seeing “The Big Year”, is that just because it has an A-List cast within the comedic genre, you’re not going to be on the floor laughing. TBY makes light of some pretty serious mantras that I feel most people can align themselves with. Read the rest of this entry »

Will the Xbox 720 be able to play used games?

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On January - 25 - 2012ADD COMMENTS

xl Microsoft Xbox3602011 Vertical 624 530x298 Will the Xbox 720 be able to play used games?

There comes a time when all consoles reach the end of their tenure and we may be seeing the Microsoft Xbox 360 moving over and making room for its next-gen successor.

The rumor mill has been churning out news all day regarding the next console in Microsoft’s lineup, which has been tentatively named by the media as the Xbox 720. Though the specs are murky right now, sources have said that the new console will be sporting both DVD and Blu Ray capabilities (so HD DVD didn’t work out too well eh Microsoft?).

Also, according to the sources:

the next-generation Xbox will arrive in late-October or November 2013 packing a GPU modeled after AMD’s Radeon HD 6670 video card. That means DirectX 11 and 3D display support, as well as multidisplay output. 1080p too, but that should go without saying at this point. The new console is expected to be roughly six times more powerful than the Xbox 360 and “will yield 20 percent greater performance than” Nintendo’s Wii U.

It will also have smaller controllers (again?) and support a new version of the Kinect.

What has some people already sweating is that supposedly, the console will be unable to play used games. We already know that used game sales are a burden on publishing companies which is why we have seen such moves by companies like EA who required the multiplayer feature on “Battlefield 3″ to be purchased by a second hand owner.

Will Microsoft start treating their games like PC games where activation codes will have to be used? With media cracking down on piracy, the business model of GameStop maybe on its way out the door.

Dev kits will be sent out later this year and we will provide more details as they become available.

 

Angry Girl Of The Week: Murder Nurse

Danni, who is known to many as Murder Nurse, is a truly unique Angry Girl. Not only is she into cosplay but she is a burlesque dancer who adds a geeky twist to the profession. She had recently come out to Los Angeles to audition for the role of Juliet, of “Lollipop Chainsaw” fame, and as you can see in her photos, she is well deserving.

I am proud to say that Murder Nurse is one of 12 Angry Girls who are gracing our 2012 calendar. In an effort to help fund her recent trip out here, make sure to mention her name when buying a calendar which is now on sale.

IMG 9759 530x353 Angry Girl Of The Week: Murder NurseName: Murder Nurse
Age: 20

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m a burlesque dancer from South Jersey who specializes in geek themed performances. Some of my better known acts are “Bad Girl” from No More Heroes, “Babydoll” from Suckerpunch, “Catherine” from Catherine and “Battlesuit Jill Valentine” from Resident Evil 5. But I’ve also done Buffy themed acts as well as Silent Hill, Marvel, DC, Persona & my two latest acts I’ve been thrilled to debut being Lollipop Chainsaw & Skyrim! I’m also a model, singer, actress, writer – if there’s a stage or creative opportunity, you can find me there!

What do you like to do for fun?
Cosplay, of course! I get to become a character I admire and share that interest with others. Also, it’s almost like being an actor – living in another character’s shoes, so it’s a nice escape. What’s not to love? In my down time for enjoyment, I love playing survival horror video games, reading comics or romance novels, watching horror movies or going to goth clubs and losing myself in the night life and music with some friends. Anything I get to dress up for tends to be a good time for me.

What do you want to do for a living?
I want to be a performer. Typical aspiration of fame aside, I can’t imagine a life where I’m not entertaining in some way. Ideally, an actress or lead singer of a metal band would be a dream come true!

What type of video games, TV shows and movies do you like?
Survival horror video games are where I get my jollies, so Silent Hill, Fatal Frame and Resident Evil have always been favourites of mine [and we can't forget Amnesia: The Dark Descent - I even do an Amnesia burlesque act!]. No More Heroes is my favourite video game of all time – I’m Suda51 obsessed! And with that said, I enjoy me some Shadows of The Damned, as well as Catherine, Splatterhouse, Persona, Pheonix Wright.. I could go on. As for TV, I’m a HUGE Detective Conan fan. I could rewatch that series so many times. Same goes for Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Big Wolf On Campus. When it comes to movies, I typically go for anything horror but I do love a good werewolf movie when I can find one. My guilty pleasure is Alpha & Omega. Don’t hold it against me, those wolves are darn cute and you know it!

What is your favorite comic book?
Easily “The Evil That Men Do”. I love Black Cat – my favourite comic book character of all time! I also adore the Zenescope comics, especially Grimm Fairy Tales and the Wonderland series. Such great reads for people who love twisted fairy tales, horror & gorgeous girls.

Tell us something interesting about you.
What actually got me into writing was my hobby of roleplaying. I will roleplay with a friend of mine almost every day, because I love coming up with new characters and story lines. It’s amazing what the imagination can come up with, to where I’m no longer sitting on my laptop typing anymore but actually there, immersed in that plot, being that character I dreamed up. That’s why I started writing supernatural romance. It’s something I never get sick of doing and really enjoy.

Why did you decide to dress like any characters you portray?
I usually choose characters who I can relate to on a personal level but sometimes I choose them based on how much I admire them, like Black Cat for example. I don’t think I look like her, but she’s hands down one of my favourite cosplays because I have such a love for her character that I adore getting to portray that. It’s also fun just doing characters I can easily replicate. Part of the fun for me is trying to really bring that character to life, whether I help them step out of the comic or off the tv screen – it’s worth it when people get just as excited as me over seeing a cosplay they feel is almost like meeting the character in real life.

Anything else we should know about you?
I’m secretly a werewolf. Might explain what happened to all my missing ex-boyfriends, though…

“Avatar 2″ to be released in 2016?

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On January - 23 - 2012ADD COMMENTS

avatar2 2016 530x385 Avatar 2 to be released in 2016?

Recent news has revealed that fans of James Cameron’s “Avatar” will have to wait 4 more years before being able to check out the sequel to the 2009 hit film.

Fans were told to expect “Avatar 2″ to hit theaters in 2014 and “Avatar 3″ in 2015. According to producer Jon Landau, that’s not the case and due to the use of new technology that will take the film to the next level, the time frame has be delayed to 2016.

Maybe they are just reviewing “Pocahontas 2″ for more story ideas.

A new video surfaced on YouTube of a PlayStation Vita owner playing “Batman: Arkham City” and “Battlefield 3″ on the handhold console. The 4.0 update to the Vita supports the Remote Play feature in tandem with the PlayStation 3, but we are blown away with how well some of the newer titles are handled.

“Shit Gamer Girls Say”

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On January - 22 - 2012ADD COMMENTS

I think you can basically replace “Gamer Girls” with any noun in the book and find a video of it on YouTube these days. Well, gamer girls are a special bunch that have their own set of annoying quirks and our talented friends over at Aggressive Comix and the Going Nowhere Show have sent us this video highlighting the shit they say.

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On January - 19 - 2012ADD COMMENTS

We received a press release from Capcom this morning confirming the release of “Resident Evil 6″.

It has been ten years since the Raccoon City incident and the President of the United States has decided to reveal the truth behind what took place in the belief that it will curb the current resurgence in bioterrorist activity. Due to be by the President’s side is his personal friend and Raccoon City survivor, Leon S. Kennedy, but when the venue suffers a bioterrorist attack, Leon is forced to face a President transformed beyond recognition and make his hardest ever decision. At the same time, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance member Chris Redfield arrives in China, itself under threat of a bioterrorist attack.  With no country safe from these attacks and the ensuing outbreaks, the entire world’s population is united by a common fear that there is no hope left.

RE6 is set to release in the U.S. on November 20, 2012 and pre orders are currently being taken at Best Buy and GameStop.

Angry Girl Of The Week: Nina

Open My Eyes 530x374 Angry Girl Of The Week: Nina

It may be a few hours late but don’t think we’ve forgot about this week’s Angry Girl!

Nina compasses some great characters from the Disney Universe, Final Fantasy and even portrays Miss Martian from “Young Justice”…one of my personal favorites. She has a passion not only for cosplaying but loves to write horror stories and stay fit with some pretty active hobbies.

We are proud to announce that Nina is one of 12 Angry Girls featured on our 2012 calendar. Her selfless attitude, which is evident in her interview, has also led to an agreement between us and we will be donating up to $2 to the ASPCA for every calendar sold, in addition to our donation to the Red Cross. Just mention Nina’s name at the time of checkout and we will create a total which will be donated in her name.

nsheadshot aug2011 Angry Girl Of The Week: NinaName: Nina (“Sirene”)
Age: 19

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m a fashion business student living in downtown Chicago, although home is back in Michigan, so I’m split pretty evenly between the two. I’m a cosplayer primarily, although I also do some vlogging stuff here and there. I’m a TV addict, Caribou Coffee junkie, and corgi enthusiast.

What do you like to do for fun?
Aside from making costumes (because that’s pretty much a given), I love writing. I mostly write horror stories, as it’s my favorite genre. I’m also a health/nutrition/fitness freak, so I do a lot of running, dancing, weight lifting, skiing, pilates, and yoga. I love cooking and baking, too – I really enjoy trying new recipes and making dishes for special occasions, and something I’d like to do in the future is cake decorating. And I guess you could count “obsessing over fictional characters” as one of my favorite hobbies, haha!

What do you want to do for a living?
Ultimately I’d like to be a wedding planner for Disney Weddings, or run my own joint bridal boutique/wedding planning service. (What can I say, I’m a hopeless romantic!)

What type of video games, music, TV shows and movies do you like?
Like I mentioned, I love horror. Stephen King is my favorite author, with The Dark Tower series being at the top of my list. My favorite game series include Silent Hill, Metal Gear Solid, and Final Fantasy, although Skyrim is my current obsession! My favorite music artists are Mumford & Sons, Snow Patrol, and Florence + The Machine, but I love anything that has a folk/bluegrass feel to it.

As for TV shows, I’m pretty much addicted to Supernatural, Doctor Who, BBC’s Sherlock, and Young Justice. Primarily Supernatural though. And when I say “addicted” I mean it.

What is your favorite comic book?
I’m a huge Batman fan, but one of my friends made me read the Young Avengers series over the summer, and now I’m completely hooked! The original YA volume is probably my favorite of the series, just because I love seeing how the team came together, along with the backstory of the characters.

Tell us something interesting about yourself.
I’ve been cosplaying for five years now, and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon! I mostly cosplay as anime and video game characters (although I prefer the latter), and lately I’ve been getting into Western comic/cartoon characters, too. I plan most of my costumes with my group of cosplay friends, Inner Mind Theater.

Anything else we should know about you?
I’m really passionate about animal rescue. This year I’m going to be volunteering with PAWS Chicago, which is the city’s largest No Kill humane organization. I know all of us nerds are tight on funds (especially us cosplayers!), but if you ever have a bit of extra cash, please consider donating to the ASPCA or another rescue organization. Every little bit helps, and if you have the choice between a new anime figurine or saving the life of an animal… Well, the figurine will be there tomorrow. The cat or dog you could have saved might not!

You can see more of Nina on her YouTube channel, her deviantART page, her Tumblr page or her Facebook page.
