Mouse Guard! pt. 3!

Well, as the third and penultimate comic for mouse guard, I worked on the formatting so it fits what was actually on the page quite accurately! Anyway, expect some cool stuff from a blog post later.

Source Code


Well, tonight I saw Source Code, and I have to say, this movie was quite theatrical, and the ending was unexpected. Both elements give it an air of non-clichéness, always a good thing. I am going to assume you already know the primace, if not watch the trailer. There was one point where the protagonist just prevailed, and they started playing this heroic music, scored by Chris Bacon, and it seemed at that point that the movie was almost over, and it would have been slightly disappointing. Up until the final scene, the movie had done in an inverted parabola (y= -a (x)²) of satisfaction, meaning, towards the beginning, I was thinking, "You know, this is actually really cool", but towards the end I was thinking, "well that was quick... I guess it's over now.." which was overcome in the end, but nonetheless, I guess that's just what happens when you get accustom to watching terribly long movies, such as Inception or the extended directors cut of Avatar. 
Overall, It had a great concept, the plot was not as compelling as it could have been, but this does not subtract from the overall presence. The science behind the "Source Code" was briefly touched over, and no, it did not make any sense. I could go in depth as to how much the science does not make sense, but I didn't myself did not gather anything from his rambling except it deals with quantum physics, or something. And probably logarithms. I mean, who doesn't like logarithms?
*SPOILER*
Wouldn't want this to happen, Captain Stevens, now would we?
One comment, would the Captain Colter Stevens still have lived in the alternate reality where he ambushed the  Indian guy if he had not been hit by a train? Because it seems it wouldn't really affect the guys life if he wasn't on the train and the bomb still blew up, besides him leaving with an eternally guilty conscience. Or did he only continue with the alternate reality in the end because Goodwin pressed the big red button at the exact right moment? I don't know. I mean, they said it was impossible. But maybe because he also saved the train..? Just a thought. Also, I just thought it was cool when he was confronting Frost at the end. 
*END SPOILER*
Dumbledore dies.  
*END END SPOILER*
Woah, how did that get there. 
Anyway. Overall, It actually was satisfactory towards the end, and I was pleased with how it had ended. Also, it had Russel Peters! 
Overall, I will give this movie a 7/10, and I recommend you watch it.

Parks and Recreation

"With Pawnee's history, It's very difficult to not be offensive. This is a map of all the atrocities the Pawnee settlers inflicted upon the Wamapoke Indians. The atrocities are in blue..."

I just recently started watching the show Parks and Recreations, and it actually is a pretty good show. The majority of the shows I watch are on NBC, and this one does not disappoint. Many have said it is just a rip-off of The Office, and I must disagree with this. Sure, it also is done in the film crew style, but that is practically the only absolute similarity. If you have a computer, you can easily watch these episodes on Hulu, or the NBC website, which I think they have...
Also, Sucker Punch came out, and I am dying to see it. A review is sure to ensue, so stay posted.
And I leave you with this...
