Spidey Villains I Want to See

With Spider-Man 4, and hearing rumors of who’s gonna be the villains in it, I put below some villains I would like to see in either the next Spidey movie or the ones after that.

1.The Lizard-They should have mentioned him a little more in the movies but still I think he would be the best fit villain in Spider-Man 4.

2.Carnage-He would be the next best villain cause they already  mentioned Venom.

3.Hobgoblin-I believe they could set him up well. However, I do want a break from the goblins. I would prefer it if he was in maybe the 5th movie, if they do go that far.

4.Scorpion-He would be a great villain to see in the movies. I do hope he will be in maybe the 5th one.

5.Chameleon-If they do him right, actor and all. He could be a cool villain to see.

6.Kraven the Hunter-The reason he’s so low on the list here is I don’t really know this guy. I’ve seen him on the cartoon show of Spider-Man.He was cool and all but the outfit was retarded.

7.KingPin-I was unsure about this one, still am. A part of me says yes, another says no.(Due to the Daredevil thing.)If they do however, put him in it, he will need to be played by the same guy from Daredevil.It wouldn’t be right to have a different one.

Marvel Movies Coming Soon

I’ve been looking it up for the next Marvel movies coming out anytime soon and have found a couple. Yes, we all know that these movies were coming out, but I’ve got the date!

X-Men Origins:Wolverine(May 1,2009)-It comes out the same day the Hannah Montana movie comes out, I have a feeling it won’t do too good.

Iron Man 2(April 30,2010)- This I can’t wait for!

Thor(June 4,2010)-The god of Thunder makes his way to the big screen!

The First Avenger:Captain America(May 6,2011)-well it’s going to be awhile but still, can’t wait!

The Avengers(July TBA,2011)-Unfortunately, there’s no date for this movie, only that it’s coming out in July.

So far there is no info or even a sign of a Magento spinoff, Silver Surfer spinoff,or Venom movie. They could be in the future but it’s going to be past 2012.Spider Man 4 was also not announced when it was coming out. They might not be even doing one.

Big Budget Disasters

These are the biggest video game flops ever created. So enjoy and laugh, mock, and point at their inferior design and gameplay! HA HA HA!

Sims Online

Estimated budget: $25m

Although megapublisher Electronic Arts usually has a knack for delivering sales smashes, every time it’s dipped its toe into the waters of massively multiplayer games since Ultima Online it’s ended up badly burned. Its last effort, an online version of The Sims, should have been a smash hit, but, well, let’s just say it underperformed a tad. Turns out the best way to make history’s most successful videogame franchise into a massively multiplayer game is not in fact to remove most of the features players enjoy and then heap on a monthly fee. The Sims Online underperformed from day one, and although EA re-invented the game as “EA-Land” in February, it’s currently marking time until the Grim Reaper comes to turn off the servers on August 1.

Daikatana

Estimated budget: Unknown. Epic.

Once upon a time, John Romero could do no wrong. Flushed with his success at Id Software, where he was instrumental in designing classics like Doom and Quake, he left to form his own studio, Ion Storm, and develop a new first-person shooter. What followed was an intricate and marvelous tale of pride, massive dot-com spending excess, colossal hype, atrociously bad ads, and, once the game was finally released, terrible reviews. Romero’s studio collapsed soon after, and with it went most of Romero’s once-proud reputation. He reportedly claimed Daikatana actually sold enough copies to recoup its vast costs, but regardless of whether that’s true it’ll always be remembered as the game that brought down Ion Storm.

he Last Express

Estimated budget: $6m

Some games flop because they’re over-hyped. Some games flop because they’re terrible. Some flop because they just spent too much money. Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner’s The Last Express made none of these mistakes, instead falling victim to a perfect storm of catastrophes, all beyond its control. It’s still remembered as one of the finest adventure games ever made, but it was released in 1997, right as the gaming public was losing interest in the genre in favor of those new-fangled 3D shooters. The publisher’s marketing department up and quit, leaving it with no ads, and a subsequent buyout meant the game vanished from stores soon after its release. Unsurprisingly, it sank without trace - but fortunately, courtesy of GameTap, it’s now being distributed again. If you don’t play any other games on this list - and, frankly, we wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t - play this one.

Ultima 9

Estimated budget: Unknown. Nine-year development cycles are not cheap.

Is there any PC role-playing game series that’s as well-loved as the Ultima games? Created by the eccentric designer Richard “Lord British” Garriott, they dominated the genre for a full fifteen years, and remain close to the heart of many RPG aficionados. Garriott’s good fortune came to a grinding halt with the 1999 release of Ultima IX: it was nine years in the making, required numerous redesigns and rewrites, and when it finally hit the streets it was a buggy, inconsistent mess with sky-high hardware requirements that excluded many fans. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the coming of 3D action-adventures caused the designers to ditch the series’ traditional deep, party-based combat and replace it with a system that owed more to Tomb Raider than Dungeons & Dragons. Assorted patches improved the game somewhat, but it wasn’t enough to redeem it, and among many Ultima devotees its name is still not spoken. Garriott’s latest project, an MMO named Tabula Rasa, is still up and running - but our hunch is that you’ll see it appearing in next year’s version of this article.

Shenmue

Estimated budget: $70m

Legendary Sega designer Yu Suzuki created classics like OutRun, Space Harrier and Virtua Fighter before turning his attention to the adventure genre in this spectacular epic. For years it stood as the most expensive video game ever made, and it was single-handedly responsible for selling at least seven of Sega’s equally ill-fated Dreamcast consoles. Was it any good? Eh, depends on who you ask. Some heralded it as the greatest console RPG ever made. Others just couldn’t dig its free-form storytelling and repetitive gameplay. It was originally intended to be a trilogy, but the series looks to have ground to a halt after its second episode. If you’ve ever wanted to drive a forklift round a Japanese town looking for sailors, give it a go.

The Getaway

Estimated budget: City-sized

Pop quiz: It’s 2000, and you want to make a free-roaming driving game. Do you: a) start by hammering together a plot, a quick generic cityscape and a few gangster-type characters, or b) attempt to model 70 square miles of one of the world’s busiest and most chaotic cities in exhaustive detail? If you answered mostly As, well done: you have what it takes to be a top games developer. If you answered mostly Bs, well done: you are probably already a top games developer, and you worked on The Getaway. The team trimmed back their ambitions to a “mere” ten square miles of central London, and it eventually saw the light of day in 2002 - a year after Grand Theft Auto 3’s release, by which time everything The Getaway did had already been done, and better. Its sequel fared even worse, and a planned PS3 version was canned just days ago.

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial

Estimated budget: over $50m (inflation-adjusted)

No list of video game flops would be complete without the game that’s widely credited with causing the great videogame crash of 1983. Atari paid somewhere around $25 million for the movie license, then had their programmers hammer out a game in a mere five weeks. The video games industry celebrated its release by disappearing into a recession that took years to cure, and Atari was broken up and sold just a year later. E.T. is still remembered as the worst game ever made. Still, if that hasn’t put you off (perhaps you are a masochist or otherwise insane) head for the desert and start digging: untold millions of unsold E.T. cartridges were dumped in an Alamogordo, New Mexico landfill where they remain to this day. Best place for ‘em.

Top 10 Best Dads in the Animal Kingdom

Well, Father’s Day is coming up and I would like to give a congradulate all fathers out there. Not only human fathers though, but animal fathers too. I found this list on the internet and thought this was really cool.

10: Lion-Our first dad just barely makes the cut. While the lion earns points for being fiercely protective of his family, unfortunately he’s also a real snoozer, more often than not sleeping when he should be keeping a closer eye on his kids. But beware, because when this dad is awake, you don’t want to mess with him. A lion’s eyesight is five times better than a human’s, and the king of the jungle can hear prey across the savanna up to two miles away! Also, this is one dad that could use a minivan — actually, make that a bus. Lions head up large family units called prides that can include up to seven lionesses and 20 cubs!

9:Antechinus-This marsupial mouse from Australia makes the list due to his sheer tenacity when it comes to making love. While most guys would die to get a little action, this guy actually dies when he gets a little action. Well not a little, more like a lot. The antechinus can spend up to 12 hours mating! In fact, this super mouse gets so distracted he forgets to eat, drink and sleep. Between that and the steroids that build up in his blood, he doesn’t stand a chance.But don’t feel too sad about the passing of dear old dad. With him out of the picture, there’s more food for those left behind — plus he likely died a very happy mouse!

8:Golden Jackal-A native of India, the golden jackal is a real stand-up kind of dad. Hunting three times more effectively when working in pairs, these skillful scavengers remain remarkably loyal partners; unlike so many other animals, jackals mate for life. On top of earning gold stars for being the poster dad for monogamy, the golden jackal also knows a thing or two about keeping the grocery bills down — this dad feeds his kids with regurgitated food. Hmmm … On second thought, that may be taking the “hand-me-down” concept a little too far.

7:Giant Water Bug-The giant water bug of Japan is a surprisingly strong and fierce hunter, paralyzing prey such as frogs by injecting them with toxins. Pregnancy is also a real team effort with these creatures — mom cements her eggs to daddy waterbug’s back; he then carries them around for a week until they hatch. And we’re not talking just one egg — this dad ends up giving piggyback rides to up to 150 kids!

 

6:Rhea-At first glance it might seem like these South American flightless birds have a rather unusual relationship. A polygamous species, the male runs around with a harem of anywhere between two and 12 females. But before you raise an eyebrow, take note: These dads carry their weight and then some when it comes to child rearing. Females leave their eggs with dad, running off to get some action from other males. Meanwhile, dad looks after the kids, not only incubating up to 60 eggs for over two months with just two weeks of food to sustain him, but also raising the newborn chicks as a single parent for nearly two years. And this dad is not afraid to charge at anyone — be it other rheas or even humans who make the mistake of trying to get near his brood!

5:Stickleback-This scrappy little fish has a real game plan when it comes to attracting females: a secret, sticky weapon called “stickleback glue” (which is not something you’ll likely find in the school-supplies aisle anytime soon). The male uses this secretion, which is produced by his kidneys, to create a “love nest.” Once built, it’s just a matter of time before the females come a-knocking, but they shouldn’t get too attached. Once he impregnates a female and she lays her eggs, the stickleback kicks her to the curb and starts looking for a new mate. But this is no deadbeat dad: He keeps the eggs oxygen-rich and waste-free by fanning them at 400 beats per minute for more than half the day — now that’s quite a workout!

4:Jacana-The jacana is also known as the “lily trotter,” thanks to its ability to “walk on water” by balancing on lily pads, but this dad could use a little more balance in his personal life. This determined bird will go to extremes to become a dad. After building his nest, he finds his mate and they do the deed. But after the female has laid her eggs, she abandons the poor sap to run off with other guys. Meanwhile, dad remains on the nest, watching over the eggs to protect them — sometimes from their own mother! Female jacanas often return and smash their own eggs; however, this is a surprisingly forgiving dad. Instead of pressing charges, he just jumps back in the sack and gives it another go, regardless of the fact that his lady has so many partners and he never really knows if he’s raising his own. Quick, someone page Maury Povich and get these guys a paternity test!

3:Giant African Frog-The giant African bullfrog is a dad with a very special talent — he can eat anything that he can fit into his mouth. Not sure how much that helps in terms of child rearing, but with over 6,000 little ones to raise it’s got to come in handy sometimes. The South American Darwin frog is also a remarkable dad, thanks to his unique method for protecting his eggs: He swallows them, keeping them tucked inside his vocal sacs for six weeks. When they’re ready to hatch, it’s like morning sickness gone wrong — very wrong. This dedicated father essentially “vomits” up his children. Ew. Anyone got some mouthwash?

2:Emperor Penguin-This dad earns his spot for his incredible endurance. The emperor penguin breeds in Antarctica, the coldest place on Earth. We’re talking 72 degrees below Fahrenheit — brr! After the female lays her egg, it’s the male’s job to keep it warm. Meanwhile, the female takes a two-month feeding sabbatical while the male balances the egg on his feet in subzero weather, often forced to huddle together with other males for warmth until their chicks hatch. Despite not having eaten for months, it’s dad who provides the baby’s first meal — a milky-type substance to sustain them until mom can return with a belly full of fish and switch the chick from “breast milk” to solids. It’s role reversal at its finest!

1:Sea Horse-The male sea horse tops our list and here’s why: Not only is he monogamous, but this creature is actually the one who gets pregnant, carrying up to 1,000 babies at a time! The mating process begins with a dancing courtship ritual of sorts with the female eventually laying hundreds of eggs inside the male, which he then helps fertilize himself during the process. This papa-to-be also loves to show off his rounded belly, proudly displaying the brood pouch he uses for carrying his young. However, before anyone nominates the male sea horse for Father of the Year, you might want to hold your horses (pun intended) — this dad has been known to eat a few of his offspring as well. Hey, nobody’s perfect!

I thought this list was hilarious and somewhat gross. Oh well, hope you liked it.

Is There a Higher Purpose?

Now, don’t think I’m crazy or something like that but I can’t help think I or we, have a higher calling in life. Or at least I hope we do. I mean come on people, is this the life you want?Just working for the rest of your life, raising a family, and dying, and a couple of years later, you will not be remembered because you didn’t do something great in life?Living or having no grand adventures.I’m not saying living a normal life is bad or anything, it just doesn’t seem the life for me. I want and hope to have a higher purpose. Yes, I want to make a difference in the world and want to be remembered as a hero. You may call me insane but go ahead. I’m already twisted,duh. I’m not sure how but I will make a difference in the world.

I know this was a random post. Just telling you guys what’s on my mind lately.Do you think there is a higher purpose for you?
