BODB: Space Invaders Screen Adaptation

Space Invaders, a “beloved” arcade game is in the works of being made into a movie. The game has no plot. It involves shooting at alien looking things coming towards earth. This is not the first time the game has been adapted into something beyond the video game. It has been on t-shirts, in music [...]

Don’t Buy: Movies based on BORING board games

Okay, okay! I get it. There will be movies made based off childhood games. I’m tired of hating and complaining about this losing battle. Candyland is a land of imagination and tasty treats, a happy Hansel and Gretel! Monopoly… borderline boring, but not if it’s a Blade Runner-esque picture!
So now it’s Risk. RISK? I couldn’t [...]

Buy: Mr. Bucket

I’m Mr. Bucket. Put your balls in my top. I’m Mr. Bucket. The balls fly outta my mouth. I’m Mr. Bucket.

Still waiting for Mrs. Bucket to come out, am I right?

Buy: The Number 2

Why you may be asking yourself is the number 2 a buy?
Well, the the best of things is going on right now!! E3 2009: part deux.
E3 is one of the things I look forward to every year (also see Halloween). E3 gives teasers, trailers, and specs for the upcoming games (also see Halloween). Including release [...]

Buy: Turtles’ Web 1.0

2009 marks the 25th anniversary of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I just found out! And what month are they hosting a party? APRIL! Get it?
They made this super rad video to give 39 Clues about where the party’s going to be:

Up and down!
So what emotion came over me as I opened an email from [...]

Buy: Food Friendzy

One of the main problems with Facebook’s actual usefulness as a promotional tool is that most of its applications are really annoying. Yes, I thought it was adorable when my study abroad friend sent me virtual smažený sýr through the Czech Food app, but now it’s merely irritating when every other day I’m notified [...]

Buy: Touch Move Chess

It really does make the game go a lot faster.

Buy: Ghostbusters, The Video Game

Find me one person who said they didn’t enjoy Ghostbusters. Everyone loved that movie. Me and you included, if my logic is correct.
On the same line of reasoning as why I am taking a don’t buy stance (as of now) on Ghostbusters 3, (rumors that Seth Rogan will be starring) I am all for the [...]

Buy: This is My Milwaukee

WARNING: THIS IS A POST ABOUT A VIRAL CAMPAIGN

Welcome to My Milwaukee. The internet is abuzz about this bizarre informational video promoting Wisconsin’s metropolis on the lake. It showcases all the city has to offer: Nightlife, Jobs, Smooth Jazz down at the docks! But a dark twist lurks only a few [...]

Don’t Buy: Air Guitar

Air guitar is the act of pretending to play an imaginary guitar. From my personal experience, air guitarists rock out when alcohol is involved. Air guitar is a pretty useless and harmless dance that, in recent years, has gone too far.
How can you take something like this, something so not serious, and make it serious? [...]
