I’m 18 again!
Not literally of course, although that would be good, but no. After thirteen years of full time working I’m going back to University, something I should have done in the first place instead of turning a gap year into eleven year gap. So with a mix of excitement and nervousness that I do this again. But I’m looking forward to it.
It’s been an interesting a fun few weeks for me. I recently had my 32nd birthday and amongst other things, I received a shiny new D-SLR camera which I’ve been utilizing quite a lot over the summer with quite good results. I’ve been posting a lot of the results on my flickr for all and sundry to see if that sort of stuff interests you.
Superbowl Thoughts.
As you all know, I’m not a yank (thank heavens!). But I’ll just say, I enjoyed the superbowl for what is was. As someone who is more used to the constant non-stop play of AFL Football, it was a little boring stop startish for me, but that last exciting play certainly made the long sit worthwhile. It certainly was an entertainment specticle though with a ripper ending, but still reeked of style over substance. I also find it a bit arrogant to call a team the World Champions when your about the only bloody country that plays the sport professionally, but I digress.
As for those superbowl spots didn’t last long did they? No matter, here are some direct QT links in 1080p HD, they look stunning on a HD display, so long as your PC has the grunt.
Transformers 2 Superbowl Spot!
Well, it’s just over seven hours until the the yanks have their biggest annual sporting event in the superbowl and it’s late here in Australia. But good news, superbowl spots have gone up for several movies. More importantly though the Transformers 2 spot is online. Transformers was a film I totally enjoyed upon release, the perfect popcorn vehicle which didn’t take itself too seriously like so many other comic book/television show adaptations.
Now finally the next film is on the horizon and we can see a little bit of what to expect. Let me just say, Devastator looks KICK ASS! Weird, but KICK ASS nonetheless. Oh, BTW Click the HQ link within the clip to view in HD. SD Vision is so rubbish these days!
What are you waiting for? CLICK, CLICK, CLICK!
Still reading??? Well that must make you a Star Trek nerd also, here’s one for you:
Personally though, Pixar’s new film really looks like total fun, much like Wall-E, Cars & The Incredibles before it!
