Halloween Movie Month [Scream 4]

So I felt like watching Scream 4. Mostly cause Scream spurred me into it. They're two of my favorite "modern" horror flicks. I think it's the self awareness, Ghostface itself, the quick/sudden kills and the humor and writing. 10 years later Sidney has moved on from all the Ghostface shenanigans and is ending a book tour for her bestseller about the original Woodsboro massacre. Of all places, it ends in Woodboro. But like fifteen years ago this murder cycle reboots, like in the Stab series, with the death of two high-school girls. Now a copycat, or perhaps a person who wants to tribute the anniversary, is on the loose and terrorizing Woodsboro again. Now, save for THE VERY LAST LIKE 3 MINUTES OF THIS MOVIE (my only gripe about this), this was epic to me. The kills were "updated" after a huge bloody horror movie generation happened. It doesn't take away from the film with senseless blood and gore either. There is a ton of blood, huge amounts compared to the first three, but kills work quite well. Did I mention I love the kills? Cause I do. The writing and twist at the "before-end" had me gasping. The "new rules" for horror movies were great and the dialogue throughout were very interesting. At least to me. Also, with most Wes Craven films the humor is subtle, punny, and never fails to make me smile or laugh. The abundance of awesome actresses in this (Alison Brie, Hayden Panettire, Emma Roberts, Courteny Cox, Neve Campbell, Kristen Bell, Anna Paquin) made this a very eye-candy movie to boot. All in all I skipped reviewing 2 and 3 cause I thought they weren't as good as 1 and 4. If you want the full Scream experience of course watch the whole series. I still love it as a whole, but I wanted to do the first and the last cause they're my two favorites and in my humble opinion the two best. "What's your favorite scary movie?"

Halloween Movie Month [The Last House On The Left]

Now I've seen the 2009  remake of this Wes Craven flick. Pretty crazy that Maggie picked this after I just watched Scream. I thought that was a pretty heavy flick, so we'll see how this compares to it's remake. Not saying that I liked the remake, but I've head good things about the original. It follows the story of Mari, who just turned 17, and her friend who go out to celebrate her birthday. As they were going to a concert, they decide to try and stop to get some drugs. Unfortunately they try to buy from two escaped convicts, their getaway driver, and a druggie they picked up who kidnap them. Now before I write anything else, I'm going to note how beautiful the two girls, her mom, and the fugitive lady are. First thing I thought when I saw 'em both. I know, I'm a guy, it's what I notice. But anywho, the music in this flick is pretty good. It's not just horror sounds and scare moments. There's actual songs and it adds to it for me. This is still a heavy movie, especially for it's time. The kills are nice and there's even a throw you off dream sequence that I liked. But it's the rape scenes (like in the the remake) are heavy and a bit hard to stomach. I really liked the opening scene, and there's even solid humor, mostly with the inept cops haha, sprinkled in throughout. I will say the ending was very, meh and boring for me though. But all in all I liked it, I think Wes balanced out the VERY dark scenes with fun stuff and good writing. TRY THIS. If you can get through the hard scenes it's a good movie. Much better, in my opinion, than the remake. "And the road leads to nowhere....."

100th Blog Post Retrospective Of The Past Year

This is really the 98th post but whatever >.< Now I'm sure the few of you who actually read this haven't been reading since post one, hell or even post fifty. Especially since I just recently brought it back to life. But I think number one hundred of anything should be a special grand event. This has been a huge year for me so far. So much has happened over the past 10 months it's crazy. There have been highs and there have definitely been lows. You could say all that's happened has led me to writing the silly little blog post. Now I now I'm not the most popular guy and God knows a bunch of people dislike me for my actions and words. But that's fine in my eyes, if you don't have those few people, it means you never done anything crazy or bold. But for the people that do like me, can stand me, whatever, here's my thoughts and story on this roller coaster of a nine months.

We can start by saying in January I wasn't expecting any of this to happen. I was just starting my 4th semester in college and I was playing through Tales of the Abyss in my free time. Yes wrestling, television, movies, music also consumed my non-school time, but it felt like it was just going to be another year of me going through the motions. Football was in the play-offs and school was in full swing by the end of January. I had just discovered Justin.tv as well. I would mostly lurk in wrestling and entertainment streams, but then I branched out and found the gaming section/community. One of (if not) the first caster I found was Jillers86! What else was she playing but Super Meat Boy, Donkey Kong Country 2, Yoshi's Island and late night Are You Afraid of the Dark? The Super Pink Gaming girl was one of my first addictions on Justin.tv and I'm proud to say Jill is still one of the sweetest and best casters out there. Believe it or not Jill (if you're even reading this) you were one of my first inspirations to start casting. Sure I'd get try to get involved in Sweetielise, GQ, and MANs chat/casts. But they were already hugely successful and it was hard to get that personal feeling from them when 200 other people are talking in the chat. Now I'm not bad mouthing anyone. Elise, GQ, and MAN all have fucking epic casts. I remember when GQ would always play the Super Mario World hacks with Wad421 on Skype. I vividly remember staying in Elise's room for over 27 hours when she did her 31 hour marathon getting 99% of Super Mario Galaxy 2 done. And when MANvsGame went through The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker, Super Meat Boy and Bioshock. Those casts were amazing! If any of ya'll are reading this, here's a thanks for all the laughs and fun times you let me have watching you play games. But Jill is still the one I personally consider THE ONE who kick started the flame to wanna cast.

Now I started off slow, like everyone does. I'm pretty sure my first cast was about and hour and a half of playing Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, that never panned out to anything. Haha I'm pretty sure I even streamed two of the Meagshark vs Giant Octopus movies haha. What I do remember is having four people pretty much from cast number one that were there and have been there ever since. Chad Simpson (aka the infamous AhmedJohnson69), Michael Ryne (aka the amazing BamXMike), the troll master himself (who I still don't know who he really is) Fat_Satan, and the trap man himself Adm_Ackbar. Now Fat_Satan and I have had our differences, but I know he's a good dude. And I never really see Ackbar outside of my casts, but he's a damn good person (and Mod). Chad, you're the most unaware troll of all time and at times you've had everyone calling for your scalp. But like I've always said, I know you don't mean most of it, and I'm glad you stuck with me this year bro. Not may people can say they know you like I do, but deep down, I know you're a good dude. Mike, old buddy, we've been friends on FB for a bit. I'm pretty sure you added me off Cantiona cause you thought I was funny and liked my Fat Jesus name. Haha. Thanks for being there from the beginning. We never talked to much unless it was about wrestling, but Ahmed brought you in my room and then we started the Skype calls while I played at it was amazing. And now, even through everything that has happened, I'm calling you one of the best friends a person can have. Cheers to you for being the, founding fathers you could say, of my channel. You two have always been on Skype and made all my casts that you're in funnier and better. Whether it be me playing Pokemon or even Roller Coaster Tycoon. Just having ya'll all call would always help me out.

The first game I played fully was Pokemon Gold version. Haha I may still have the save file and I vividly remember naming the Drowzee/Hypno on our team Pedobear cause we thought it was the funniest thing ever. Also my first highlight game from playing through Gold version as well, I Look Like Ryne's GF. I hit 50 and 100 followers quickly. And I was informed that when you hit a good milestone you have to have a marathon. So Pokemon Emerald-athon was born and I played it for 24 hours. My first 24 hour cast. I'm pretty sure I topped out at like 40+ viewers at one point (which is huge for me, even now). Also the infamous The Shiny That Got Away.... highlight occurred happened during this event, and I'm proud to say I got a 24 hour marathon cast done so early in my casting career too. Also during all this, some how the great and epic Mournless took a liking to me. Haha. Now I'd always seen Mourn modding away when I was in MANs cast. But then she comes into my room one night and i'm like "WTF, and almighty Mod from MANvsGAME in my room? What has the world come to?!" Nonetheless Mournless is an amazing person. Sweet, funny, fuckin' beautiful, and just a pleasure to hang with. Also that even at this point I've met and gotten to know so many kind and wonderful people was so humbling to me.

By now we're well into March and you guessed it, my next addiction of the year hit, the release of Pokemon Black/White. If you know me at all you know I'm one of the biggest Pokemon fans there is. Besides fourth generation games, and the shitty ones like Mystery Dungeons and Trozei, I own all of the main Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, and DS titles. Now even with me playing White version for over 50 hours the first week, I'd never neglect my casting. I think by now I'd finally ponied up and gotten my 360 controller so I could try and emulate SNES/N64 games. I remember the first one I tried was Mario Kart 64. Epic game, but I quickly realized that some games just don't garner a crowd. I played through Super Mario World and Super Mario World 2 and after a week or two of those and other SNES games I went back to, what else, Pokemon. This time since I had already WELL beaten both halves of Pokemon White version, I figured what the hell and started up on Black Version. Surprise surprise a newer game actually sustained viewers and I started getting a ton of new people coming in. Now I remember this day quite well actually. I was having mic troubles and had just gotten everything working and I was casting. Mike and Maggie you motherfuckers for doing this haha. This person named "Extraordinary_Girl" came in and started chatting and trolling shit. I was like who is this person trolling me? Then in comes BamXMike telling me Maggie caught wind of me and Ahmed saying we looked alike and wanted to come in or some shit. So the jig was up (Jesus what am I a detective from the 80s). I raged hard and to this day I'm pretty sure Maggie believed I really fucking hated her haha. And while we're on the subject I might as well say a few words about Maggie aka Extraordinary_Girl. Aisde from the meeting filled with anger we moved on haha. I didn't think she'd become a regualr in the casts (I still don't believe I have "regulars") but that's how it turned out. Then one day we got her on Skype with us during a cast and the rest is history. She would always come on call with me, Ahmed and Mike (or one of the combinations we'd concoct) during my late night casts. She was at her college in Minnesota at the time, so she'd sit in her dorm-room's bathroom during my late casts haha. Where this gem of a highlight comes from, The Only Toilet Humor You'll Ever Need. Maggie would also co-host with me when I did random day casts too (I so remember finally beating Donkey Kong Country 2 one afternoon with her on call). Jesus those afternoon casts were few and far between haha. She's just a sweet person, a pleasure to talk to and to have gotten to know ever so much over this year.

Can I talk about three more people now that have made this whole year even better for me? I think I will. Not long after March ended I'm pretty sure this dude named Eddie_Ruckus came into one of my casts. Little did I know at the time that he was a caster or that we'd become such good friends. Eddie is one of the most kind-hearted people you will ever meet and funny as fuck to boot. He's also one of the best video game players I've ever seen. I've watched him go through everything form Paper Mario (in one sitting), to Rock Band 3, to Dead Space 2 on hardcore. If you don't know the Ruckus you're missing out, and I'm seriously glad I've gotten to know him. The other person who started coming in my casts (who was a regular in Eddie's cast coincidentally) is Harugeki. Harugki is one of the funnest people you'll ever meet. But when you get him angry, oh boy is it amazing to behold. He's the biggest anime fan you'll ever meet. Hell he's even had two amazing anime movie/show marathons already. If you don't know Haru, get to know him. You won't regret it. Also Kristy aka Little_Miss_Gamer. I met gamer in one of MANs casts and she came into mine after one of his. We've been trying to get her a Skype for months upon months now, and it's hilarious how we're still trying. She's a great person, a great mod, and by gawd if she isn't one of the funniest people on JTV/TTV.

At this point, I'm pretty sure I'm at the point where I had just gotten another milestone and did my second 24 hour marathon, aka Pokemon Blue-a-thon! I think this was my favorite marathon cause I had everyone on call with me at some point. Maggie, Mike, Haru, Eddie, Chad, Moruny, etc. It was just a grad time and great support from everyone. I absolutely loved this marathon and remember it well. May and June runs together for me haha. I know I went on to beat Donkey Kong Country 3, Star Fox 64 and hell I even played Super Mario 64 and Mario Party for a bit. Also in these months I had like three movie marathons. One was actually viewer voted, and then two long ass ones that happened outta nowhere. I so remember modding Little_Miss_Gamer during the start of the second one. That's also when I'm pretty sure I met the awesome A_Confused_Pumpkin. Seriously, tangent here, but he's one of the coolest casters. He just got partner on Twitch actually and he's even sending me his HD-PVR for free. He's just an awesome funny, great person. There's so many of ya'll on Twitch and I love you all.

I don't remember much casting at the end of June and the beginning of July. Cept for the fact I finally hit 500 followers. So another marathon. Now the people that were there said the 17 hours I went was epic. This was Pokemon Yellow-a-thon. I got all the way to the Silph Co. Tower and beating my rival and I hit a block I couldn't get past and ended it. I've always thought it was a failure, but everyone else though it was a great. Haha. July was probably the worst month for me (at the time). I remember casting on and off and even remember finishing the epic TV series known as Scrubs. Great series. Everyone go watch it. Stuff went down and I'm not going to go into any of it. It was hard on everyone that was involved and knew and just completely crushed my life and spirits. Honestly of that month the highlight to me was during Maggies birthday cast when she sung for all of us. Simply beautiful. Maggie Sings! I also remember doing a precast for her and going through her old Xanga we found. I wish someone had highlighted (or I had been aware enough to save all my casts) of me and Mike commenting and dissecting all her bitchy 14-year old self.......................posts. But what a highlight those are in my memories. Also another good thing about that month was that I started going to the epic LookAtMyChicken's casts and getting to know  Daniel so much batter. And also started going to the epic AriaBlarg's casts. Between Aria's casts and Chicken's it helped me so much getting thorough that month and I'm so glad you guys casted. I don't know would've done without guys just doing what you do.

Skip forward to August and my birthday cast. Having everyone on call as I played through Donkey Kong Country 2 was amazing and the fantasy draft for out league to start out that cast is amazing. Looking back eating cake and listening to my mom, dad, and aunt singing happy birthday will be a surreal moment in my life from now on. Then skip forward again to my final cast. It didn't go exactly as planned, but what did go down (giving away a DVD and having Maggie on call like she was during Blue-A-Thon), was great. If you didn't know I stopped for over a month and a half and to focus on my school semester. It's going well and I'm pretty sure I'm doing good in all my classes. And thanks for all the support and everyone saying ya'll miss me casting. It means so much that ya'll still like me when I know (myself) I'm a rotten person inside. Haha.

Now yesterday my dad passed away. Like I said, I didn't think it could get worse than what happened in July. I love my dad. We did everything together the past 6 years. From watch Jeopardy and sitcoms and wrestling, to just hanging and watching stand-up comedy, he was truly my dad and he can never be replaced in my eyes. If you don't know six years ago my dad came through a stroke, then two years later a heart attack, and recently he's been dealing with congestive heart failure and seizures. There's nothing I can say but he's the best dad anyone could ever have, and I wish ya'll could've known him like out family did. I love you dad, rest in peace.

Now to end this out I'm going to rattle off a list of names that have meant ever so much to me this year. I'm sorry I could find a place for you guys in this post, but know you're all very important to me and if I miss anyone I'm sorry and I love you. Angiefoxtrot, Retrozombie, JhnnyCrWsh, Chatia12, solidbeef, teh_ferret, squidmango, itssimplytee hyper_rarity, heyot6, whosetweetisit, brokenwings, ler, LJ, shh_im_asleep, billx9999, Dr. Mario, adoginwig, aklaba, panzer, mara, arj, alucloud, sparklies, lonegunspy, technomancer, bushwhick, and awoozl.

Well if you read this, you're a trooper and I reward you with a cookie. Thanks for reading and I love you all.  <3

Halloween Movie Month [Scream]

Now I've always liked the Scream series and earlier this year I went through all three (seen the first one a couple times before) before Scream 4 came out. Since I'm not reviewing 2/3 this month I can tell you that while it was a downhill progression between two and three but they were still solid. My thoughts on Scream 4 when I review it later this month. But Scream is where Wes Craven's crazy series began. It tells the story of  Sidney Prescott and her life nearly a year after her mother was raped and murdered. The town is in an uproar because of a masked person calling a girls house, asking her a series of questions about horror movies and then kills the girl and her boyfriend. I've always loved this movie. Funny story, the second time I watched it, it was on a local station and edited and stuff. I got a kick out of it cause the programming that day was bring sponsored by Children's Tylenol. The kills are sudden quick and look good. The acting by the cast is surprisingly good, I love the opening and the final scenes so much. Along with the acting, the writing for this is awesome. I usually don't point it out, cause these are horror movies, but it's great and the horror movie rules are genius. Anywho I love this movie. Actually it's, in my opinion, one of the best modern horror films ever made. The kills, acting, humor, and story are all original and pretty damn great. Go watch it, you won't be disappointed.

The Smackdown Lowdown [10/7/11]

Coming off Hell in a Cell, that was Sunday right, we get Smackdown. At least I think we do, since all the superstars walked out on Monday Night Raw. In any event, Mark Henry has retained the World Heavyweight Championship after his Hell in a Cell match and even Big Show is slated to return this evening. Anywho, let's get a write-up of this Smackdown going. Here's the lowdown on Smackdown.

We open the show with a video package highlights everyone questioning Triple H as COO, into what happened on Monday Night Raw where everyone aired their thoughts and grievances twoards Triple H and voted "no confidence" before walking out.

Teddy Long is in the back with Zack Ryder and he just got off the phone with Triple H. Zack is relieved that his name didn't come up. Teddy tells him that Triple H has left him in charge of Smackdown and that Raws' loss is Smackdown's gain.

The Bow-Tie Faction is in the ring. Vickie Guerrero, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, Cody Rhodes, Christian, and David Otunga. Vickie is yelling "Excuse me" in the ring and welcomes us to the one year anniversary of Smackdown on SyFy. Christian takes over and tell us that his first opposition to Triple H is what started this whole "Walkout" situation. Ziggler takes the mic and tells us that because everyone banded together they were able to help superstars makes some of the best decisions of their lives. Otunga is handed the mic and tells us that until Triple H is gone they won't be happy. If he doesn't step down everyone is going to walk out of the WWE altogether. Wade Barrett and Cody Rhodes then go on to tell us that they had to suffer through the weeks of the COO Triple H's reign. Cody says that they owe all this to one man. Swagger is handed the mic and tells us all to respect the WWE Champion. Alberto Del Rio's music hits and he makes his way to the ring. Del Rio tells us that when he talks, we need to listen. That despite Triple H putting him in that Hell in a Cell match, he came out champion. He takes credit inspiring all the WWE stars to walk out on Raw. Del Rio is here to compete, he says, to show us what we'll be missing on Raw. Teddy's music hits and he makes a zinger about the audience walking out if they keep talking. Teddy tells Christian and Cody they should be in the back getting ready for the tag team main event later. In which it will be Christian and Cody against Sheamus and Randy Orton. Also Del Rio is put into a match with Sin Cara this is next. Del Rio tells Teddy to shut up cause he is the the only sensation Mexican or American and he's the best in the world.

Alberto Del Rio (WWE Champion) beat Sin Cara (Blue) via submission in a singles match: 3/10 or 1.5/5 Stars

We come back live and Ricardo gives Del Rio another grand introduction, Sin Cara hits the ring and the match begins. They looks like they could work well together, but there is no was Cara will ever get to Del Rios level in the WWE, IMO. End match Sin Cara hits an around the world DDT for a two count. Sin Cara then goes to the top rope, jumps off and takes a double knees to the arms. Then Del Rio slaps on the corkscrew cross arm-breaker and Sin Cara taps out.

After the match, the black Sin Cara comes out and beats down the blue Sin Cara. Hitting a hammerlock suplex then a swanton bomb.

We cut to the commentators and Cole tells us he walked out cause he believes Triple H was doing a horrible job as CEO. Booker then says he agrees with Triple H and he only left on Monday night to go to the bathroom. Anal bleeding? Sure let's go with that. 

Striker is in the back with the WWE Tag Team Champions Air Boom. Bourne and Kofi have a match against Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger later tonight. Borune then says they walked out on their own volition. They believe until Triple H steps down the WWE will be stuck in this state of chaos. And that if they can't wrestle on Raw, they'll still be here to wrestle on Smackdown.

Jack Swagger and Dolph Zigger (United States Champion) w/Vickie Guerrero beat Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston [Air Boom] (WWE Tag Team Champions) via pinfall in a tag team match: 4/10 or 2/5 Stars

Air Boom is heading out to the ring, when they're blind-sided by Ziggler and Swagger. They give them a beat down of their lives ending with Bourne taking the Zig Zag on the floor while Vickie looked on impressed. We come back from commercial to Kofi and Ziggler and Swagger in the ring. The ref rings the bell and we have a match after all. End match, Kofi hits a clothesline on Ziggler. Bourne finally gets to the apron and tags himself in. He gets a bit of offense in before Ziggler hits another Zig Zag and tags in Swagger. He hits the Gut-wrench  powerbomb and covers him for the pinfall.

Beth Phoenix (Divas Champion) w/Natyala vs Alicia Fox in a singles match: NR

This is gonna either suck or REALLY suck. By the time I finished that sentence Beth hit the Glamslam for the 1-2-3.

Afterward Natyala slaps on the brutal modified surfboard submission and as Alicia is in the hold Beth tells her to cry and scream into the mic, for EVERYONE to hear.

We get a package showing The Big Show/Mark Henry interactions from a few months ago. Mark Henry breaking Big Show's leg and Big Show saying he lit Mark Henry's fire and he can put it out.

The Big Show's music hits and the big man is back. He gets a good pop form the crowd as well. He looks pumped and excited as he heads down and gets in the ring. Show tells us that the last four months have been brutal with his broken ankle. We see the footage of Henry doing it at Money in the Bank. Show says he thought he was infallible and that he was humbled by Mark Henry. He says the emotional pain along with the physical pain was used to make him even stronger and that he's going to pay Henry back ten-fold. Show says that Henry has been on a roll for the past four months, but he says that Henry's roll is a down hill one, and that he's waiting for Henry at the bottom. Show then goes onto say that he's going to take the thing that has validated his whole career the World Heavyweight Championship. And that he'll settle for nothing less than one on one for the title. Mark Henry's music hits and he comes out to the stage. Henry tells Show that a lot has happened since he left. Taking out Kane, Kozlov, and even Jerry Lawler. But the most important thing is that he beat Randy Orton. Henry asks though, what has he done to deserve it. That all he's done is sit at home for four months on a vacation afforded by him. Henry then says that he'll get an answer, but it'll be on Mark Henry, world champion, time. Big Show says that if he doesn't get the answer he wants he's putting Henry through the announce table and breaking his ankle.

Striker is in the back with Randy Orton. Orton says that he's not going whine like Christian, and he'll just going to go through the Smackdown roster to get to the top again. He then goes onto say that he wasn't out there on Raw because he can deal with Triple H if has has a problem and that he doesn't play well with others. And that Sheamus, his partner later, wasn't out there either, but that it doesn't bode well for Christian and Cody Rhodes.

As we come back to Smackdown we get a Brodus Clay video package. Dude's big and can throw a suplex. All you need to know.

Ezekiel Jackson vs Jinder Mahal in singles match: 2/10 or 1/5 Stars

Gender was yelling about something in Indian in the ring . Big Zeke hits the ring, tells him to shush twice before decking him, and then the match gets underway. This is pointless, why should I care about either of these guys when there's so much Raw star-power in the back. End match Ezekiel throws about 50 bodyslams and goes for the torture rack. Mahal slips out the back and puts some offense and a front face lock on Jackson. Jackson pushes off and hits another 50 bodyslams, slaps on the torture rack and Mahal taps out.

Teddy and Johhny Ace have a conversation about how the WWE is in uncharted waters after Raw Monday and that...fuck it, I wasn't paying attention here, but I assume it was about Teddy needs to keep Smackdown in order cause Raw is so messed up.

We cut to the announcers and Hornswoggle comes out from under the ring. Oh God. Him and Booker inexplicably do the Spin-A-Roonie in the ring. Christian's music hits and he walks down to the ring and afterward Cody's music hits as well and looks like our tag team main event is about to start.

Sheamus/Randy Orton beat Cody Rhodes (Intercontinental Champion)/Christian via pinfall in a tag team match: 5/10 or 2.5/5 Stars

We come back from commercial and as Sheamus and Orton come out Cole explains why Rhodes is holding the new "old" ICC belt. I like both pairings and if all the combos that can be put together with this tag match looks good to me.  Christian and Cody use hell trickery to get advantage over Orton as we go into commercial break. End match Christian goes for a spear but gets a boot instead. Orton tags in Sheamus and Christian tags in Rhodes. Sheamus takes down Rhodes and misses the flying shoulder block. He sets up for the Blarney Boot but Christian intervenes. Sheamus hits him off the apron then follows Christian outside the ring. Orton is tagged in and hits the RKO as all this is happening. And Rhodes is pinned for the 1-2-3.

We get the same package we opened the show with about "The Walkout" before Mark Henry comes out next to answer Big Show's ultimatum.

Mark Henry asks if we know who he is. He lists off all his titles and tells us hes infallible. Henry then tells us that Big Show will....not be getting a title shot. Big Show storms out to the ring and a brawl ensues between the two. After a thunderous spear to Henry form the Big Show, Show starts throw the security around like dolls. As he's taking out the security, Henry climbs out of the ring and walks away. Big Show isn't done yet as he starts being on Henry again. But this time Henry is a bit more prepared and he throws Big Show into the barricade. He then sets up the announce table and grabs Show. Show fights out of the Worlds Strongest Slam and hits a choke slam on Henry through the announce table. Big Show then grabs a steel chair and puts it on Henry's ankle and drags the steel steps over. As Big Show is about to jump on the chair Teddy runs out and tell Big Show he's got his title shot, but only if he doesn't continue. Big show begins to walk away, but then goes back and hits Henry with the steel chair and walks away. We end Smackdown with Big Show looking back at his handy work done to the world champ Mark Henry.

Smackdown Rating: 5/10 or 2.5/5 Stars
Last week: 6/10 or 3/5 Stars
I don't want to write a huge paragraph about this show cause it was bad. I think WWE doesn't know what do do with anything since everyone walked out Monday and they threw this show together. I didn't like it, it was long, promo-filled, and the matches (besides the main event) were all too short and just plain bad. I mean if you have to watch it go for it. I didn't like this week though. I'm not proof reading either tonight..cause I frankly don't care, hopefully it's not too bad.

That's it for The Smackdown Lowdown. As always suggest to me stuff you'd like me to write on. Also if you wanna add me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter, please do so. Really I don't mind.

Halloween Movie Month [Paranormal Activity]

Now as much as I make fun of this movie and rag on the series, when I first saw it I actually liked it. Paranormal Activity follows the story of Micah and Katie. They're a couple and they've been together for three years. Recently, in their house, strange things have started to happen. Footsteps, whispers, etc. They call in a psychic who deals with ghosts, but it turns out they have a much bigger problem. A demon. I'd usually start by talking about the music here. But there is none. Unless you count the shitty guitar playing or the TV running at the beginning. But I understand, it's mockumentary horror and it's not really needed. The scares are very heavily relying on you getting into the little things and then when the big things starts you're already freak out. It does a good job of this. Oh look keys on the floor. Oh look, the door moved an inch. Oh shit twenty minutes before it's over stuff finally starts and you're pissing. The acting is what it was. Micah (Micah Sloat) is the immature unbelieving jock-like partner of the Katie (Katie Featherston) who has had the demon following her her whole life. I was hesitant to write a review (like this) cause I thought it'd turn into me ragging on the film. While, for me it's pace is to fucking slow (too much unneeded talking and a couple of very cut-able scenes), and (all three) endings are bad/predictable, it's undeniable that people love these flicks. It also helps that I live Tweeted and made fun of it as I went. Now that I've seen it four times and all three endings, it's still only okay. I'd REALLY like it more if it were stand-alone and Paranormal Activity 2 wasn't a shit-fest. But give it a try. I'm not saying it's total garbage, but it's definitely not one I even imagined myself watching four times by now. Oh, by the way, in Paranormal Activity 2 (I'm not reviewing this month), Katie is in a bikini. 'Nuff said.
