CONSPIRACY! (Sneak Peak)

Do you have a conspiracy that you want made into an official paper? Comment below!

INTRO

Hm... Why did I do that? Not so sure. Gonna roll with it though.

Anywho, it appears that I haven't been up to schedule. I apologize to all of you readers that had to suffer through their lack of daily James (I know, it's terrible, right?)

So, this is a short post. It's more of a sneak peak as to whats to come, and a change in the schedule. Posts from James will be changed to Saturday's (if you haven't seen the other post that notify's you about that), and there will be a new feature coming in (in replacement for Brightside review.) It will be a written conspiracy paper!

These conspiracy papers will be about ANYTHING ridiculous, and it will be made to look serious (almost serious enough to publish.) This coming Friday will be the start for the post change and conspiracy paper. That's all I'm really gonna say right now, so until Saturday friends.

Brightside Review 3.0

Hello readers, viewers, or whatever you want to be called.

Problems and Solutions

It's been a while, eh? Sorry about the late post, I was caught up in some things Wednesday (obviously the mafia) and I couldn't write the regular post. So I'm doing it on Saturday. This is just a one time thing, by next Wednesday we should be back on our regular schedule.

Anyway, continuing on, this week was time for the next Brightside review (I think...?) Anyway, racking my mind for something that I could possibly review, I have decided to review a little game called City of Heroes

CoH

This game has one of the best creation processes in any MMORPG I've ever seen. You have control of most of the details, and rarely do you see two character the same (Generic characters you do see often, but those who put a little effort will stand out from the rest of the crowd no matter what.) The game does have a lot of repetition in it with quests (they're referred to as 'missions' ingame) but nevertheless it's a nice, casual game.

The game also boasts the very first Super-Hero/Super-Villain MMORPG, and it does it well. It's diversity in Powers and Archetypes is something unheard of in any other MMORPG, and the enhancements are a nice replacement compared to gear. Overall, this game is quite well done.

JaDS


New JaDS if you haven't seen that post. This time, we're back in school compared to our last one where we were at a park playground.

Fin


Well, that wraps up the new post. Hope you all have a nice weekend, and hope you all had a nice Easter weekend as well. Goodbye, farewell, thanks for all the fish.

Garden State

Hello readers!

Yes, we're back for another post ladies and gentleman! I decided that this post will be specific to Garden State, a beautiful movie directed and acted by Zach Braff (my favorite actor if no one knew.) In this movie Andrew (Zach Braff) returns home to his family after hearing that his mother had just drowned the night before. His home, which is in Garden State, is full of old, nostalgic people that Andrew get's to see again, though he appears not to be quite so ecstatic about revisiting the past. He also gets off the medicine he was on for nine years, telling the psychiatrist that he, "Doesn't feel like anything's wrong." The next few weeks he meets and gets to know this girl named Sam, and gets many new life lessons upon their getting to know each other.


I, personally, love this movie, but of course I like anything with Zach Braff in it. It has many life lessons, and is actually one of Zach's more, "serious," roles, something I didn't expect and enjoyed. He did a great job, and you should definitely check out his new movie, "The High Cost of Living," and his upcoming play, "All New People."


Anyway, another short post, but that could be considered my Brightside Review of the week. Thank you all, and I hope you have a good night/morning/whatever time it is for you.


P.S. New JaDS tomorrow!

Pickles

So, what did Peter Piper pick a peck of?


OBVIOUSLY PICKLES!

Sorry, that was quite childish. Anyway, welcome back to our Blog. Sorry for the late post, I'm losing my mind. Just like I'm losing my religion.

Heh, little side-gag there. Anyway, I didn't plan this out whatsoever, so I'll just talk about how Holland (Denmark) was.

Denmark was fun, everyone there is tall, blonde, perfect, and they have blue eyes. All of them.

ALL OF THEM

CONSPIRACY


They all also have extremely overpriced small things. Which is why I love America. Land of the, "Quantity over quality," and also land of the good Big-Macs. I missed Big-Macs.

JaDS


New JaDS episode out tonight! Check out episode 17, best one yet! (Just kidding, I wasn't in it enough. Obviously.)

Well, that's all I have to say now. Glad you were checking in, and for new readers it's always nice to check out my older posts (even though there's only 2?) Good night, and good luck.

The Blog

Welcome to the blog

Hello and yes! Drake and I have developed a Blog to talk about our innermost feelings, embarrassing stories, and whatever we feel like on the internet! It's a nice way to get things out, it's cheaper than therapy, and other people get to enjoy my pain. Overall, this is gonna be awesome.


Now, yes, me and Drake have tried blogs before, and both of us failed epically, but together, maybe, just maybe, we can scrape together enough intelligence to maintain this one! We're hoping there's at least going to be a blog a week, and we're planning on the post to be on Wednesday nights. If not, they will be on Friday mornings (we run on Eastern time, just so you know.)


Teaser



I'm going to start by letting you in on a teaser. Me and Drake are planning to work together to develop a podcast with another fellow youtuber whom you may or may not know. Whether or not it will work out, we're not quite sure, but if it does ever happen, look on here for it.


JaDS news



Also, JaDS is now getting updated weekly again. We apologize for any delay that we caused, it's just with vacation and diseases and deaths (ok, maybe not deaths) we couldn't keep up with the show, but we're back to doing it every week.


Leave of Absence?



Another thing is that I, James, will be gone for a week. I'm gonna leave this country and explore the world, and then I will return to meager America. But, that means that Drake will have to cover for me on Posting to this, so expect that much.


Brightside Review (Sucker Punch)


And lastly, seeing as today is Sunday, I thought I'd do a weekly (and by weekly, I mean every two weeks) story/review thing. I find obscure/well known/well hated things on the internet, and look on the positive side of everything. I shall dub it- Brightside Review. Whether or not it will stick, I'm not quite sure.


If you've already seen the movie Sucker Punch, and absolutely was disgusted/hated it for lack of nudity, then you might as well wait another week for the next LB post, but otherwise here I go.


Sucker Punch's story (which isn't that great- in fact, if it weren't for the fighting, I wouldn't have stayed the whole movie) is based in the 1950's and follows a young girl (whose name is never disclosed, but the nickname "Babydoll" is given). Her step-father (who is shown to be either a rapist or an abuser, but either way is the antagonist of her reality), after (once again, we presume because nothing is shown) killing Babydoll's mother, discovers that Babydoll's mother didn't include him in the will. In his anger, he drank his heart out, and went after the two girls. He locked Babydoll after a failed attempt at rape, and went after her sister. Babydoll escapes her momentary prison, rushes for a gun, and shoots her stepfather. She misses (because obviously girls can't shoot- the only time she does it right is in her fantasy (just kidding, in no way am I sexist. Now go make me a sandwhich)) and hits her sister, who dies instantly. The cops arrive, take her away into a mental institution where the madness ensues.


Upon entering the institution, the real movie begins to start. She hears a psychologist telling her to, "free her mind," and in doing show she appears in a whore house. She, herself, is recruited as an Orphan; the owner of the mental institute is portrayed as the, "pimp," and the rest of the girls there are shown as dancers and prostitutes.


I can't go into more detail without ruining the movie for most (which I wouldn't mind doing, to tell you the truth) but overall the movie's plot was slightly lacking. Where it lacked, though, the music, special effects, and fight scenes all made it up. The fight scenes were something out of a DnD game gone mad, girls wielding guns twice their size, wearing clothes extremely tight (though there were, once again, no nude scenes or girl-on-girl action, which disappointed most. In my opinion, it wouldn't been that great; the actors were hot, but I didn't pay $8 for porn, I paid for mindless fighting.) So, I actually enjoyed the movie. In my words (after just watching the movie), "It was like having dopamine force fed on an IV while smoking weed and watching Ultraviolet. Except, it was better."


I'd give the movie 4/5, the stories lacking didn't hurt the movie as much as everyone claims, and the action scenes are definitely worth getting out of the house for.


This concludes the Brightside Review, and remember, "Always look on the Brightside of life."
