Multiplatform Movie Releases
This really frustrates me because I am very impatient and end up going to the theater where I pay a ridiculous amount for one viewing, food that is twice the cost then in the stores and no guarantee of a good seat. If you look at how people consume media now a days, there is a monopoly on new releases.

My "Golden Compass" Movie Review
The movie falls a bit short from the books. If you liked the books you may feel disappointed with the details that were left out and if you're new to the series than you'll probably be confused.
This movie is a classic example of how not to translate an epic fantasy novel. The pacing was off, story progressed for reasons that weren't immediately clear. I found myself constantly meeting characters that I didn't have time to care about. This is something that the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings movies got right.
That being said, the art direction is beautiful and dead on. The scenes are rich and the CG animation is seem less. Fans of effects should see this for the art alone.
Overall, this is a good movie that deserves for the rest of the trilogy to be made. As for the content, don't worry about the religious undertones. They are obvious in the book and I welcome the apposing view to my beliefs in that I think it will spark conversations. But in the movie they chickened out and went a very safe generic route that shouldn't ruffle any feathers.

Too many games to play!
Games I'm Currently Playing Through (it's sad)
- Halo 3 XBOX360 (just finished)
- Call 0f Duty 4 XBOX360 (half way, it's amazing)
- Metroid Prime 3 Wii (other things keep calling away)
- Zelda Phantom Hour Glass DS (even on the road)
My problem is that I keep starting games and before I can finish them a new one comes out that I have to play. It's like getting through all the first half of your favorite movies.
These are all games still coming out in November that I'm sure I will get distracted again.
- Super Mario Galaxy - Wii - Nov 12
- Assassin's Creed XBOX360 - Nov 13
- Mass Effect XBOX360 - Nov 21
Something must be done... I have a shelf full of great old PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube games I never finished and some that are still in the wrapper. I need an intervention.

Super Metroid SNES - The Unplayed Treasure
SUPER METROID IS AMAZING! I like this game so much more as a side-scroller. Even the graphics, though 16 bit, are stylistically great! There is so much action and puzzle solving in this game it keeps you playing it for hours at a time. I would encourage anyone who likes to think and loves their action games to try this old game out. It really shows that graphics still do not take the place of great game design.

Josh's Transformers Movie Review
The special effects and sound were some of the best I've seen in a while. Every detail was perfect except for when the giant "Optimus Prime" picks up tiny human glasses and they suddenly double in size to fit in the robots fingers. They also mastered the transformation sequences of which there were plenty.
Overall, it was a good popcorn flick. An over-the-top story, mixed with amazing effects, and it didn't take its self too seriously. I liked it but when there are movies like Harry Potter and the LOTR Series out there, I can't help but want special effects to support a great story rather than the other way around.

Prince of Persia Movie in 2009
Not much is known about the film, save for its alleged incorporation of Parkour and its involvement with Jerry "Needs More Splosions" Bruckheimer. Michael Bay's directorial sledgehammer has been eyed for the film, but no official announcement on the subject has been made. There's a feint chance of the film turning into a charming and boisterous adventure along the lines of Pirates of the Caribbean, but the realistic expectation is to leave the cinema complaining about the abundance of car chases and Eva Mendez's poor rendition of "Look, a crack!"

Apple to Release Best Cellphone Ever!
IPTV on Xbox 360 is for real
Filed under: CES, Gaming, Home Entertainment
Yup, as suspected Microsoft is adding IPTV to the Xbox 360. They're way light on details, but during tonight's Microsoft keynote Robbie Bach gave a sneak peek at a new service called IPTV on Xbox 360. Like we guessed, the service will offer live streaming broadcasts, and do stuff like let you play a game on Xbox Live while recording a show in the background. IPTV on Xbox 360 won't be available until the holiday season this year, but they do say that programming will be from providers who are already offering services based on Microsoft TV IPTV Edition. Bach also hinted there will be some social aspects to the service that will "make it easy for people to access and discover their favorite content and share their personal experiences with the communities they are part of." And that's pretty much all we know right now, we probably won't know for months how much the service will cost and whether it'll require a larger drive to work.I Recommend Gears of War for XBOX 360

My Newest Site Launch - The UPS Whiteboard
This is phase 1 of a gigantic flash microsite I've been working on at IQ Interactive. It is being released along side a huge campaign place around a man drawing you solutions on a whiteboard. Though the final experience seems fairly simple, the work behind this site was crazy. There was a month of writing, design, and development preparation followed by a two day shoot in L.A.
Around 100 HD shots were used to allow a user to choose their business problems and be presented with a solution all from UPS' resident expert (Forgive the photo... it was shot with my cell phone) All of this in the hopes that the user would feel like he/she was having a friendly conversation with a representative from UPS. This created quite a challenge considering the size video we were going to be using and the variations of solutions that could be provided.
35 of the site's segments were shot over a giant green screen and followed the talent on a dolly to capture comfortable motion. These were used in the menu selection. In the site, the talent walks along an endless whiteboard presenting options while everything he says is animated behind him. The rest were a combination of close up confirmation shots showing him circling your selection and special "what if moments." "What if moments" is what we called the segments that mostly emulated the tv spots. They are essentially a cartoon drawing on the whiteboard that the talent adds to to tell a story of situation you might encounter.
All of this leads up leads up to a 45 second animation that tells another story about the same product in more detail. These animations were designed for feel like the user has dove into the drawings on the whiteboard and were create through a combination of hand animation, after effects, and Maya.

Flash on the Wii? Interesting...
The most important part about this is the fact that Flash 7 in enabled. This opens up a whole new realm of possibilities. As of now the coolest thing is being able to watch You Tube on my tv, but their is potentially a lot more you could so with it. How great would it be to make a flash game that interfaces with the Wii remote to be able to use the motion sensor. On a more practical side, you could make specialized microsites, specifically formatted for the Wii. Like I said... possibilities.
