não é suficientemente longo.

If Saw II was far from being as good as the first one, Saw III is a complete failure. While the first movie of this series had an incredible mysterious, thoughtfull and well written argument, this last one is completly unappealing and dull. The movie has countless scenes of explicit horror/gore content which denotes how much money the previous movies have raised for the producers, but when it comes to the story it pretty much sucks.

Here’s a comment taken from imdb.com that pretty much describes what i think about this movie:

“The first few challenges were nothing more than a gore fest. The thrill and suspense of the challenges faced in the original Saw replaced with ideas designed to do nothing more than test how well you could hold onto your last meal. There was no rhyme, no reason, and paper-thin plots.

After enduring the first 20 minutes of blood and guts the storyline of the movie started to develop, but it was hard to actually connect with it as there was the constant fear that the next second another disembowelment or similar would jar you out of the storyline again.”

For all J5 fans out there i set up this small playlist with some of the coolest Jurassic 5 clips @ Youtube.com.
The first one is the shit, lol. Freestyling @ Tom Green show.

If you find any J5 cool videos please post the links :)

Also, here’s a Jurassic 5 wallpaper i did this afternoon, will probably post a few more here in the next few days:

Yep! Summer is pretty much over and so are holidays so i decided to start developping again. Starting next week i’ll be working on the following:

• XML parser + Image Generator for Last.fm recently played tracks (working example here)
• Update L2World Server Status
• Maybe I’ll update the Calendar plugin. If i do so, i’ll probably rewrite it from scratch with much cleaner code and make it XHTML compliant.
• Might even consider developing one or two of the plugins requested @ SourceForge.net/wp-plugins (feel free to go there and post your ideas for plugins ;))

So, expect these updates (and perhaps a few more) in the next weeks!

So I was bored as shit the other day and decided to check on a few games. Some friend of mine ended up telling me about EVE online so i decided to give it a try.
The game is extremely complex, and it looks even more when you’re first looking at it. The rookie-tutorial takes over 2 hours to finish but it sure helps a lot. You get to know all the basic functions, tools and interface. The interface… I don’t consider myself as a game expert but EVE has the best interface i have ever seen. It’s simply perfect! It’s like, when you’re watching a Star Wars movie and you see all those neat monitors with awesome graphics and you’re like “wow, that’s so cool, i wish i had stuff like that on my computer”, well… wish no more! EVE beats all that.

The only down side of this game is that it’s Pay-to-Play. In order to play it you have to pay a monthly fee of 19.95$USD. I’m still on trial period (14 days) but i’m pretty sure that, after the trial period expires, i’ll gladly pay that monthly fee because it’s totally worth it.

I’ve been playing this for only 6 days now and i know i haven’t seen 1% of the game, but what i’ve seen so far made me droll. There’s also rumors that an expansion (free) is coming out, new ships, equipment, research and graphics! (better than this?!)
Here’s a few screenshots i took in these last days:

Que tristeza, lol. Desde maio que nao actualizo isto. A verdade é que nao tenho tido tempo e, das poucas vezes que comecei a escrever algo, tive o azar de ter um daqueles 404 (page not found) quando fazia Gravar. Escusado será dizer que nem na cache do browser, quando fazia back, ficava guardado.

Mas isso nao interessa. O que interessa é que já estou de férias e daqui a uma semana estou no Sudoeste. Enquanto isso vou aproveitando estes dias de praia com os meus amigos.

Bem, vou almoçar e dps praia! :)
Se se quiserem rir um bocado vejam este blog: visto de cima…

E começaram as semanas académicas. Quer dizer, em alguns sitios ja começaram e ja acabaram, mas para mim, começa so esta 3ª feira que é quando vou a Queima do Porto! Quim Barreiros e Herman José sao os protagonistas da noite que, tenho a certeza, que vai ser altamente! :D

É o inicio daquilo a que muitos chamam de semana do degredo, mas que no fundo, não passa de uma altura em que o pessoal se diverte a enfrascar cerveja e a cantar músicas pimba (músicas essas que defendemos a pés juntos que detestamos e que somos incapazes de as ouvir!)

De qualquer das formas o que interessa é o divertimento.
Já no sabado começa a minha Queima! Não é nada de especial, diga-se, mas é ligeiramente melhor que o do ano passado. Mais informações, é clicar na imagem.
