A gorgeous OS that continue a dribbling decent into lowest common denominator for Apple. So far my first impressions of Lion have been fairly mixed – very excited but bombarded with issues straight up including sudden panic from Chrome and Safari not working or connecting to sites. Disabling extensions, restarting [...]
I too was excited by the trailer for the movie Daybreakers to be only slightly disappointed. The creative sphere is bursting at the seems with vampire related paraphernalia with the 1st season of True Blood ringing through as quality material and the totally retarded Twilight series feeding those that prefer to be tickled [...]
I bought MoneyBook for iPhone yesterday after reviewing the competition under Finance. Most of the others were not as pretty as this app, an important criteria for any application used regularly on any platform. Of course pretty being subjective, means to me: aesthetically revealing the functionality through harmony of colour, form [...]
I woke early. Naturally I had to check out the iNews before leaving and immediately went to the Apple store. The Australian version presented me with no change at all but the American had all its links leading to the iPad splash page which was a bit annoying. Watching the [...]
I recently read a nice analogy for Australia’s game classification board: Australia’s R18+ debate is a lot like NASCAR: it has just been going round and round in circles without a whole lot happening. Every now and again there is a collision when a controversial game looses traction as it [...]
I’m pleased to say that amparose.com has finally arrived as more than just a single page. The proverbial carpenter has outfitted himself with palatial surroundings. Still a few things that need some work / fixing but it will all fall into place quickly so please pop back in and see [...]
Initial rant There’s something about videogame movies. They never turn out too good. In my opinion, there are two major reasons for this. Hollywood doesn’t trust the original story. This seems strange to me, as the good games all have good stories, which the fans love. The movie-making industry however [...]
Who the f*&k spewed this thing onto film? I’m so unimpressed with this sequel that I’m not going to spend more than a few sentences telling you what I think. I think that “bong bash with the president” pretty much sums it up. There were plenty of hot and bothered [...]
What the hellboy? Hmm. When a movie opens with a bedtime story about how someone can challenge the ruler of the Empire for control of the Golden Army, you know exactly how that movie is going to end. When a movie opens with a bedtime story that is eerily similar to [...]
So for me it took a while to write this review as I had to have some time to become more objective. This movie was the realisation of a fantasy that I had while watching a documentary on human trafficking a couple of years back – made me really really [...]
