So, today I caught the last ten minutes or so of Dragon Wars on the Sci Fi channel and...okay, I'm sure it's a great movie that a lot of people spent a lot of time working on but I honestly couldn't tell you what the hell happened in it.
I don't get it. Why did the girl turn into a giant blue ball? Is she Glinda the Blue Witch? Where did she get that poofy dress? Did that kid's necklace just kill an entire army? Where the hell did that other dragon come from? Why do the dragon's look like a deranged crossbreed of cobra and worm? Pictured above: Nothing
I fucking understand.
I'll probably have to go back at some point and watch the entire movie from the beginning, but I honestly think that would confuse me more. I was left watching the credits going: "What the hell just happened?"
I have the same reaction to new episodes of Lost.Anyway, so that's my rant for the day. I've also finally figured out how exactly I like to caption pictures on here. The captions are for your amusement. On to the traditions!
Recommended Book Of The Day: The Way of Shadows, by Brent Weeks. For anyone who likes the video game Assassin's Creed (or just cool assassin books in general, this is for you. Medieval Fantasy, like most of my recommendations. Summary below.)
Summary: For Durzo Blint, assassination is an art - and he is the city's most accomplished artist. For Azoth, survival is precarious. Something you never take for granted. As a guild rat, he's grown up in the slums and learned to judge people quickly - and to take risks. Risks like apprenticing himself to Durzo Blint.
But to be accepted, Azoth must turn his back on his old life and embrace a new identity and name. As Kylar Stern, he must learn to navigate the assassins' world of dangerous politics and strange magics - and cultivate a flair for death.
So yes, this series is awesome. I'm eagerly awaiting getting my hands on the sequel to Way, called Shadow's Edge.
Quote of the Day: "Did Jet just die?" "You know, it's really unclear."
Funny video of the Day: Right, so here's the video. It's by the guys over at Derrickcomedy.com and absolutely hilarious. It's called Emo Song.
I KNOW THAT MOVIE! This a important occurrence because I'm not really a movies-knowledgable person. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah. It did not make sense. That's about the only thing I remember of it. It was... Weird.
