A film I have yet to see…

Monday, March 26th, 2007

Having followed 300 since its announcement, and having also been a massive fan of Sin City, I must say this review has made me want to see it even more. I suggest you ingest it this moment.

I quote:

1) Awesome, shouty quotes.

300 is the most obscenely quotable movie I have seen in a long time. Truly, quotes such as “Eat your breakfast boys and eat hearty - FOR TONIGHT, WE DINE IN HELL!!!”, eyes shimmering with batshit insaneness or “THIS. IS. SPARTAAA!!” are this generation’s “Hasta La Vista, Baby” and “I ain’t got TIME to bleed”. Respectively. In any case, the macho-tastic quotes in 300 are made five billion times better by the fact that ALL OF THEM ARE SHOUTED. SPARTAN MEN LOVE TO SHOUT. THEY WERE RAISED NEVER TO SURRENDER AND TO SHOUT UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. In fact, it made the rest of the movie without the shouting scenes quite uncomfortable to listen to. I was all up for seeing the boys relaxing round the campfire, screaming at the top of their voices “SPARTANS! WHO WANTS SOME TEA. I HAVE EARL GREY AND LAPSANG SOUCHONG. IN HELL!!!”.

And on a more technical note:

I’ve been following the developments of this Multi-Touch (FTIR) screen system for a while. This video is absolutely amazing. Watch.

Yet again Google strike

Worth checking out if you do any kind of coding used on the web.

It explains it far better than I ever could.

Finally, that science stuff proves it.

Tea is healthy. Tea is good for you. But only if you consume four of more cups every day. Gleefully I report that I fulfil this criteria, though many people out there are still falling short. We need to force tea down the throats of everyone, just to be on the safe side. So you dont get too bored with this, heres a picture of some tea.

A green mug.

If you need to see the evidence for yourself, you can read the poorly worded article kindly provided by the BBC in exchange for the money I wasted on my TV license, or by reading the Daily Mail today, page 33; which is where I read an equally poorly worded article about it.

Chaos: Battle of the Wizards

Thursday, August 3rd, 2006

After years (about 10) of toying with remaking the classic speccy game ‘Chaos: Battle of the wizards‘ by Games Workshop myself, it seems a very talented swedish programmer has done one. And its fucking amazing. I only just discovered it on a whim, it’s hard to see why it hasn’t caused more of a buzz. It seems to be written using dot net, and hopefully in c#. I wonder if the source is available?

Check it out here. Immediately.

I have attached the file to this post also, in case the site ever goes down.
