Exploring Stuff That Makes Life Great
Underneath every geek, lies a deep and sacred opinion. Are they a Star Trek or a Star Wars fanboy? While there have been plenty of YouTube videos about this decades old war, by far the above video is the best ever produced.
We won’t give any spoilers. Simply watch it and let us know what you think.
This battle will definitely rage on when the new Star Trek XI film is released in May 2009. The question is, will it be better than the Star Wars prequels?
Every now and then The Simpsons comes out with an amazing episode. Last night’s was just one of those magic moments.
The Simpsons finally attacked Apple Fanboys. Thank God for that!

Do I hate Apple? Yes. Watch the video above and you’ll understand why I do.
I think the two even themselves out in the end.

Blue Dragon began as a video game for the Xbox 360 that was supposed to usher in Japanese gamers to the console. The franchise has now expanded to a TV show with characters designed by Akira Toriyama, creator of Dragon-Ball Z.
The story follows a group of six friends as they attempt to stop an evil entity using their new ally, a legendary shadow monster- the Blue Dragon.
This disc is volume one in the series, and contains the first five episodes. Thankfully it has an MSRP price of $14.99 because there isn’t anything else on these discs.
If you’re a fan of the video game or of anime, I would definitely give Blue Dragon a look-see. However if you’re not, don’t bother.
All that he is, is awesome. The Popeye cartoons have always made for great fun since their days in the dawn of animation. Most stories are heroic narratives- personally, I know many a screenwriting professors who have been known to show their students a Popeye cartoon as an example of an excellent narrative.
This is a nostalgia DVD collection, and great fun for those of us who grew up with Popeye. It features 32 memorable cartoons.
And if you want to introduce the children in your life to ol’ Popeye, I think this DVD would do the trick, hands down. Despite the fact that these early features are in black and white, they are packed with so much action and adventure that kids will see past it.
So get ready to set sail with the world’s most famous sailor who isn’t a duck, and check out Popeye today.
I give this dvd set five out of five Cans of Vegetables.
