Well, I finally got the chance to watch two animated films that I've been meaning to.

The first of them is Persepolis. Now, in case you're not cool, and have never heard of the film, it's based on a duo of graphic novels done by Marjane Satrapi which I personally adored. It's based off of her experiences a an Iranian girl living in the middle of the Iranian Revolution, and can get rather personal. We start off with her as a six-year-old girl, slowly becoming more aware of the situation, and end with her as a 21-year-old woman leaving to France. The film is animated, but it certainly isn't a kids movie, and you'll see this quickly just by watching the movie. What I really enjoy about it, though, is how lighthearted it really is, even with the serious topics mentioned here. I could really talk about the film's brilliance all day, but Ed Liu says it best. I really think everyone needs to see this movie. On my top 10 animated films list, no doubt. An easy 5/5.

Other then that, I plowed through Futurama: The Beast With a Billion Backs, the second of four DTVs that the show will release(consider this an unofficial new season, I guess). Well, in case you didn't know, I wasn't too hot on the first one Bender's Big Score. Wasn't bad, but I thought it was too confusing for it's own good, and this one seems to be more of the same. I could tell you the plot, but to save me from the potential migraine, I'll just say that it's weird. Well, the brilliant snarky humor that made us geeks fall in love with Matt Groening's series is still in tact, but I kind of wanted, well, more to the film then just that, which I never really got. I can't explain to you what, exactly, but I'm sure some of those who saw it will know what I'm talking about. I heard that a lot of FryxLeela shippers weren't satisfied with this film, with the edition of Fry's girlfriend, uh, whatever that character Brittany Murphy played, and how the progress the two went through in the last film went nowhere here. Personally, while I have no problem with shippers of the couple, I don't really care. Besides, I'm sure that KifxAmy fans will probably have more to complain about. Regardless, I'll just give the movie a 3/5. If you're a diehard fan of the show, then you'll probably want to buy it, but less hardcore fans will probably just want to rent it, like I did, or even wait for it to air on Comedy Central.

Oh, we also got a sneak peek at the next movie. Looks like it'll have a Dungeons & Dragons-esq parody plot, and Mom and her lackeys will have a bigger focus here. I don't really see how they'll fit this into a good 90-minute film when the plot is typical kids stuff(Billy & Mandy and Dexter's Lab did stories like this with a 7-minute-guideline), so I'm not putting my hopes up for it, but at the same time, the crew have worked miracles before, so I'm still gonna give it a look. Besides, it's Futurama. I'm required to watch it by law.

Yesterday, while my sister was driving me around, the acoustic version of "SOS" played on her CD. She then mentioned how much she loves the Jonas Brothers and how she's going to see them when they come in September, and how she offered to pay for me to go with her. I was... actually, quite mortified at the offer. To me, the Jonas Brothers are the epitome of the unruly fangirl. At least metalhead chicks are often really hot, and there's even a few hot yaoi girls, like one on Toon Zone I'd mention if I wasn't so worried that she or someone she knows from there could tell her, so, yeah. Well, anyeay, uh, the Jonas Brothers aren't my kind of thing, so I wasn't very pleased to of been offered to see them.

Uh, there's more to add, I think... No, I guess. To the rest!

Song of the Blog: Testament- "Souls of Black", in honor of the fact that it's been rumored to appear on Rock Band 2's setlist, whch made me a very happy Testament fan boy. Granted, I think "Over the Wall" would of been a much better fit for the game(just listen to that riff and Chuck Billy's awesome range), but hey, at least Testament could appear in the game. Besides, bass players should be happy, as that opening line's to die for, and the rest of the song is top-notch, too.

TV Show of the Blog:

Higurashi no Naku Koro Ki. Sick, beatuiful, anime. Thank you, Foggle, for getting me into this. What could of happened if Funimation didn't buy it.

So, lately, I've been watching That Guy With The Glasses' videos, and let me say that he is a fyucking comedic mastermind. I don't particularly like his Bum Reviews, and I've yet to see a 5 Second movie, but his Nostalgia Critic and AskThatGuy segment's are brilliant. Don't believe me? Watch this, and please tell me you'll check an AskThatGuy or two.

Now lately, he's been feuding with The Angry Video Game Nerd, a similar kind of person who does video games in favor of movies. I can't necessarily call my self an AVGN fan, though, but to be fair, here's a linkto one of his vids, which is still worth a look. What started off as just one video "attack" to a response "attack"(watch, you poopyhead) has finally turned itself to the battle of all mothers, click if you dare.

Those too lazy to look, in it, The Nostalgia Critic, AVGN, and Captain S, who can be seen in that AVGN link I gave you, went into a massive battle, with TNC planing to review a game, and the AVGN a movie. Let me just say this is the mother of all wins. I just can't help but wonder what game TNC will have to review, or what movie AVGN will have to(here's hoping for the Mortal Kombat sequel). So, any fans of either one of these guys?

Song of the Blog:Dio does "War Pigs" with Sabbath. Not only can he sing better than Ozzy, but he can sing his songs better than him, too.

TV Show of the Blog:

Batman: The Animated Series. Possibly the most important TV show of all time. Easily one of the best. Not a better time to mention it, with the Dark Knight's new movies coming very soon, not to mention a certain fiasco. An episode, you ask? "Harley & Ivy" should fill that itch.

IS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!

Celebrate with me, now.

Hmmm, shockinlgy, not too much to add here, other then that I might be gibing Lupin III another chance soon. Tried it back when it was on [as], couldn't get into it, but ensatsu-ken and Foggle command me to.

Song of the Blog: Deep Purple- "Wring That Neck". Sick, sick, song.

TV Show of the Blog:

Married... With Children. Still the funniest show I've ever seen. Here's the thrash kings Anthrax hanging with Bud and Kelly maknig an effing mess, and the reason why I think Al Bundy's the best sitcom character of all time, but really, the main reason.

Yes, it's that time for me. I've recently been tagged by Azure

***SPOILER***

1: I like my coffee black, JUST LIKE MY METAL!!!

2: Forget Shakespeare or Stan Lee, Name is the best writer of all time. Read this to see why.

3: Despite my extreme love for the show, I've never seen an episode of Ed, Edd, n' Eddy in my entire life.

4: Metallica is still THE BEST BAND EVER ZOMG!

5: Misa= YUCK

6: I don't know who's a better friend, Owner, flcl_Wizard, or KingofPirates.

7: I'm putting pink highlights in my hair, even if I'm a guy.

8: I spend every waking moment of my life on the computer. Every. Waking. Moment.

9: Being Rick Roll'D is so over. Being Tis Roll'D is where it's at.

10: I completely pulled all of this out of my ass.

So, in other news, cannot wait for Persepolis and the new Futurama movie to come out on DVD tomorrow. I'm going to have to rent them both, since I'm a bit tight on money, and I'm not too sure if it's worth the risk to buy either one of them without seeing them first. I loved the Persepolis book, but that doesn't mean I'm automatically going to enjoy the movie, and I actually felt disappointed with Bender's Big Score, plus I still need to get Judas Priest, Exodus, and Testament's new albums.

I also recently got ensatsu-ken into The Spectacular Spider-Man and I'm slowly getting him into American Dragon. I love giving a good recommendation out, just like he gave me Death Note and Foggle did Higurashi, which reminds me, I'm tagging both of them next, alongside Mother3_GBA, if he ever gets back on.

So, I'm trying userbars, and I want to know what you think of them, so I'll check with you all. I think my choices give you a keen idea of what I like, and maybe even what I'm like.

Love. That. Girl. Not for her "brains", though. So, yeah, I'm bringing back two favorite features of mine with my latest blog here, song of the blog and TV show of the blog, and to show ow sorry about how long it's been since my last blog, I'll give you three songs this time. Quote of the week's back too, so I'll show you what it is for you to guess:

"Darling, fascist, bully boy, give me some more money, you bastard. May the seed of your loin be fruitful in the belly of your woman. Neil"

Song(s) of the Blog:

Song 1: Children of Bodom do "Oops I Did It Again"

Song 2: Type O Negative- "My Girlfriend's Girlfriend". Amazing video, and a damn fine song, too. sylent, I know you'll get a kick out of the vid.

Song 3: You know it, gotta give you Iron Maiden's "Fear of the Dark"

TV Show of the Week:

You Can't Do That On TeleVision- Of course. If you know me, you know I love this show. So, check out Christine's audition tape here. Such a ham she was.

I've just been banned from Toon Zone.

This... really sucks. I've never been banned before. I don't know what to think anymore. TZ and tv.com were my life. I give up.
