Best and Worst Movies of 2010 part 1


Okay everyone seems to be making lists about the best and the worst movies of the year.  Now I am not going to make some long list just four movies. The two best and the two worst.  So let me beguine by saying that I can be pretty picky when it comes to movies that I like and don't like.  I will pick movies apart making them worse then they really are.  So I will not only list the movies but I will also explain why I either like or dislike it.  ok so lets start with the second worst movie.




Second Worst: Pr editors.


Now this wasn't a terrible movie but it was no where near good for me.  It had a bad story, terrible characters,  it was filled with the worst action movie cliches, and Adrian Brody.  I mean this was one of the most predictable movies I have ever seen.  It seemed the only cliche it didn't have was the black guy didn't die first.  Instead it was a Mexican guy to die first.  It had the crazy survivor, the predictable order of how people died, and even a samurai showdown (which was awesome but still cliched)


Now about the characters I can't even express how much I hated the majority of them.  There were two characters that I actually liked but for all of the wrong reasons.  The first was the Yakuza member, and the on;y reason I like him was because he didn't talk for most of the movie.  I think in the whole movie he might have talked for 2 to 3 minutes.  The other character was Topher Grace.  I didn't give a crap abiut his character I just liked him because I like Topher Grace.  His character isn't anything special its just him thats it.  However the worst character other then  Adrian Brody was this inmate who I sware was written to be the most despicable character ever.  He actually has a conversation about when he gets out of this he is going to go back and "Rape some Bitches."  I wish I was lying or trying to make some bad joke but honestly he says that and I hate him so much for it.  


So the story is just bad.  I don't mean its terrible but its just your run of the mill action movie story.  Nothing new nothing cool and nothing interesting.  Just bland blandness that I did not like at all.  Enough about the story though I want to talk about the worse part of the movie Adrian Brody.  I mean wow what a boring actor.  He is not cool he is not tough he is just a bland actor being miss casted as an action hero.  I don't know who in there right mind thought this scrawny guy with a huge nose would make a good action hero that could hold a flame to the Govenator is beyond me.  All I know is that I hated this movie and it has a lot to do with Adrian Brody.  

Now this movie wasn't terrible it just wasn't for me.  If you are a fan of the Pr editor series then I think you will like this.  However if you are not a fan then avoid it especially if you are like me and small things bug the crap out of you then this movie might not be for you.  So this was my second least favorite movie of 2010.  I should have the other three movies on my last posted in the next couple days.  I was going to do it all tonight but its already pretty late and I am tired you can just suck it BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

The Legend of Zelda Files: Yeta


"Well everyone it is time for a special edition of the Legend of Zelda Files.  Why is it special well because its the second one I did this week.  If you dont think that should make it special then you can SHUT UP!!!  Now as you know I just got back to updating again after recovering from a flattening and then from mental scarring from the last installment with those really hungry balls.  I am back again to actually interview someone.  So join me for this very special Christmas edition of The Legend of Zelda Files."


"Now when you think Christmas you think about family, food, Christmas Trees, and presents. I on the other hand think about Yeti. I mean what goes better with Christmas then giant white monsters.  So for this edition I decided to go talk to Yeta.  Now you may remember Yeta from Twilight Princess but what you might not know is that her husband is John J Yeto the young senator from Alaska.  What you also might not know is that she is a professional snow border/surfer.  I sat down with Yeta in the Snowpeak Mansion.

Me: "Miss Yeta thank you for speaking with me."


Yeta: "I will bite you face....I mean your welcome.  It is so good to have a member of the media in our home."


Me: "Yes well it is such a nice place."


Yeta: "Thank you.  I try to keep a clean home.....the fat fish eating slob of a monstrosity always messes it up.  I often dream about ripping out his throat."


Me: "Ummmm Yeta are you ok?"


Yeta: "Oh my yes I am just fine.......I will devour your soul!!"


Me:  "I am not so sure fine is the right word. What is with the violent talk?"


Yeta: "Oh that well that Mirror if Twilight......ummmm well because of that thing I am now possessed by a demon."


Me: "What really wow."


Yeta: "Yeah I know its kind of odd......YOUR MOTHER PLAYS THE LEGEND OF ZELDA IN HELL!!!!!!!"


Me: "Isn't that line kind of over used?"


Demon Yeta: "........Shut your (expletive deleted)  mouth!!"


Me: "Hey hey hey now settle down this is a family show."


Yeta:  "I should apologize for the demon living inside of me.  It has a potty mouth."


Me:  "So it seems well I should ask you about your time as a professional surfer."


Yeta: "Yes before we moved to Snowpeak we lived in California.  I surfed under my own label and loved every second of it.........YOU SMELL!!!"

Me: "Well that was just uncalled for evil demon I do not smell.  So normal Yeta how long have you been surfing?"

Yeta:  Well I started when I was about 5 and...................I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE!!!!!


Me: "Why is the demon yelling at me now.  Also I don't have a milkshake.  Well I think we have all we need."


Yeta:  "Thank you for coming it was a pleasure having you in our home."


Me:  "Thank you for having me and good luck with the whole demon thing."


Demon Yeta:  "GET THE HELL OUT OF OUR HOUSE OR I SHALL RIP OFF YOUR FLESH!!!!!"


Me:  "Okay gotta go bye."


"Well that was defiantly interesting I never interviewed a possessed person before.  I hope this won't hurt Yeto's career.  Well join us next time for another installment of the Legend of Zelda Files.  Hopefully the next one will be demon free."

The Legend of Zelda Files: Boe

"Welcome once again to a very much delayed installment of The Legend of Zelda Files.  Now I bet you are wondering why I haven't posted a new file in quite a while.  Well it all started in October when I went to talk to a  particular creature.  Now this creature ended up slamming his giant hand on me and basically squashing me.  I broke a lot of bones and spent quite a while out of action.  However I am back to spread the joyous news that is  I have a new file to post.  So sit down and get ready to learn about the mysterious little balls known as Boes."


"Now I bet you are thinking what in the name of Din is a boe well I have no idea so that will be one of my questions I will be asking.  Wait it looks like I have found some let me get a little closer.  Okay looks like we have some white and black boes here gathering around a fire.  It looks like they are huddled up for warmth.  It is such a touchingly sad site.  Wait wait it looks like they are bringing in a Goron.  Oh ummm wow its dead and it looks like (gags a little)  Th the they are eating it.  They just swarmed and consumed that thing in seconds flat.  I have never seen such brutality in something so small.  I think I should get out of here before I am the next one on the menu.  Well I say screw this interview and run away."

"Well I managed to escape safely but not with out them giving chase.  They took down everything that got in there way in seconds flat.  I have never seen anything eat like they do.  They took down two more Gorons, a herd of goats, and even a freaking Redead.  Thankfully for me I was to fast for them.  So I am Andy Balbac signing off.  See you next time on a new installment of the Legend of Zelda Files."

Legend of Zelda Files: The Composer Brothers

   "Well it is now the first of October and we are going to spend the month talking to the Legend of Zelda characters that send a chill down your spine.  We are going to go deep into the darkness of Hyrule and talk to the ghosts, monsters, and demons that remain among the living.  Today we will be talking to Sharp and Flat aka the Composer Brothers.  So get ready for a scary ride into the dark side of the Legend of Zelda where not even the brightest light can't penetrate."

Me: "Thank you Mr. Sharp and Mr. Flat for meeting with me."

Sharp: "You are welcome we are happy to talk to you."

Me: "Now can you two tell me more about yourselves?  lets start with you Flat."

Flat: "Well we were both great composers for the royal family of Hyrule.  We co-wrote the Sun's Song."

Sharp: "However when we died we had a little bit of a disagreement and we went our separate ways."

Flat: "Sharp betrayed me and sold his soul to the devil"

Sharp:  "Yea hehehe that was a kind of dark time."

Me: "Really Sharp you sold your soul to the Devil?!?  Care to explain?" 

Sharp:  "Well ok it's a long story kind of funny to hehe..."

Flat: "Come on Sharp tell the story."

Sharp: "Ok well it was right after we died and I was all depressed.  This strange looking person wearing a strange mask walked approached me.  He offered me power in exchange for my services.  I was able to play magic songs that would effect the world of the living.  I found myself in a strange land in a cave.  I was told to drain the water of the cave and to get rid of any people who might try to interfere."

Me: "Flat how did you feel about this?"

Flat: "I felt betrayed my only brother left me and went on to do evil things.  He killed people and almost killed the person who ended up saving him."

Sharp:  "Yes one day a small boy came to the cave.  Like everyone else I tried to kill him using the Song of Darkness.  However he took out an Ocarina and played a song that was so strange but familiar.  I could fell my brother's sadness and rage in this song." 

Flat:  "I wrote that song after you betrayed me the Song of Storms held the tears that I cried and the rage that I felt.  The rain drops were my tears the thunder and lightning is my anger and rage."

Shap: "After that boy played my brothers song I was freed.  The evil had left me and I returned to my brother a new man, a clean man, a free man."

Flat: "I was happy to have my brother back with me so we could finally be at rest.  It was a great relief to know my brother is freed from the darkness.  However him and I had some work to do.  I wanted him to make things right and help the people he hurt."

Sharp: "So we started the Composer Brothers fund for people hurt by ghosts.  So far we are fairly successful and have given money to many of my victims."

Me: "Well it is good to hear you are trying to make amends for the things you have done."
Sharp: "Thank you it does feel good to do good.  It would be easier if we weren't dead but we seem to manage."

Me: "Now you two don't miss use you ummm ghostlyness do you?"

Sharp:  "Well you know we do get bored so we have to entertain ourselves somehow."

Flat: "We might be dead but were not losers."

Me: "Yes well I don't really want to be scared so I will donate some money for your fund."

Flat: "Why thank you good sir."

Me: "Yes well your welcome.  Thank you for meeting with me and I will be seeing you later."


    "Well that was an interesting talk with a pair of famous spirits.  Please tune in next time for or next scary installment of The Legend of Zelda Files."

My Thoughts On: Metroid Other M

    I am sorry but I have to interrupt our regularly scheduled program to bring you a video game review.  Now I know most of you were hoping that you will be seeing "My Thoughts On: Nightcrawler"  however one of the possible three people who read this wanted me to talk about Metroid Other M.  So I gave Deadpool the day off and an extra thousand to not shoot me.  So lets look at the a very confusing games and believe me I am trying to figure out my thoughts on the game as well.  So sit tight as we talk about Other M or I will make you listen to Samus talk about a stupid Metroid Baby.  

    Okay to start things off Other M was made by Team Ninja (Ninja Giden or something.)  Now this means one thing Samus is faster, does more hand to hand combat, and has big female jiggly  parts.  Okay even though I listed it last I am going to talk about the Jiggly parts and get it out of the way fast.  Any scene that shows Samus in her Zero Suit you can plainly see that she her breasts and her "booty" (To quote one of my friends) are well big.  Bigger then they have ever been.  Now I am sure there is some strange person somewhere who thinks that is something super sexy (I can't say she doesn't look good but the size change was not needed.)  However unlike other female characters that Team Ninja have designed Samus isn't in her Zero Suit long, and her jiggly parts are not often seen (I feel like a creep even talking about this just so you know.)  That is all I am going to mention about her "updated" look.

    Now to something actually important I want to talk about her increase in speed.  I will honestly say I was happy with how fast she is.  It almost seemed like she was as I always thought she should be.  I know she is in armor which looks heavy but this is Samus the intergalactic bounty hunter who has a large amount of Bad Assitude.  I thought she should be face and be able the jump around.  I just loved running around all fast and what not.  However the control scheme did not allow the speed to be fully explored.  I will get to that later when I talk about the controls. 
 

   Now the last big Team Ninja addition is the "Hand to hand" combat.  Now Samus didn't really fight hand to hand but she did get up close and personal with the enemies.  This was also a bad ass addition but it also made Samus seem slightly ruthless.  She would often fire fully charged shots at point blank range right into enemies heads.  Now I know she didn't fight any people like that but she was still shooting things in the head.  No matter how many times I did it though it seemed cool every time I tossed a an enemy around or jumped on them and shot them in the face. 

    So thats the major Team Ninja influences that are seen in the game.  So lets look at the more technical aspects of the game and lets start with graphics.  I know graphics have never been one of Nintendo's strong points but this game is beautiful.  The graphics for this game are great some of the best I have seen on the Wii.  It looks realistic(ish) it also looks like the Prime games all of which were very good looking.  I really can't say anything bad about the graphics so I am going to end this part and move on to music.

    I really wish I could give the music the same praise that I gave the graphics.  Its not really bad it just isn't as good as other  Metroid games.  The music is trying to be more atmospheric instead of music.  However it doesn't really work at being atmospheric but that isn't all the musics fault more the level design which I will talk about next.

    The game is designed like two other Metroid games Metroid Prime 3 and Metroid Fusion.  Both games took place on a space station (Prime 3 was more then one space station but same thing.)  The game however took after Fusion over Prime 3.  Fusion and Other M are both linear games with an obvious path to follow.  The games also have a commanding officer (In fusions case it is a computer program) that Samus is receiving orders from.  The commanding officer in both games also grant you access to different weapons and upgrades as the game progresses.  Now I mentioned about the game trying to be atmospheric but failing.  I put all the blame one the level design not the music.  The music was atmospheric (not to the extent of the Prime games) however the countless hallways and tunnels that all look the same (for the most part) ruin the atmosphere.  Another thing that annoys me is pointless invisible walls.  Not really ones that are blocking your way but the ones that they try to hide on you.  Metroid games should let you explore the area around you even Fusion let you do exploring.  However this one stops you from doing that. 

    Lets move on to the game play and controls.  I am going to be honest and just say it I wish they used the Wiimote and nun-chuck because that would have taken care of all of the control problems.  This game used the Wiimote as an NES controller by turning it on its side.  This however I found was to small for my hands and just made the game play more complected.  Having to point the Wiimote at the screen to enter the first person perspective.  When in first person mode you can't move at all, but this is the only way you can fire missiles which you will do a lot.  Now if they would have just done Wiimote nun-chuck you could fire missiles and enter the first person perspective with out causing so many problems.  The Wiimote nun-chuck worked perfectly for the Metroid Prime Trilogy it would have worked perfectly here to.  Another advantage to the Wiimote nun-chuck would have been the joy stick.  Using a joy stick in this game would have fully captured Samus's speed compared to the tiny directional pad they used for this game.  Even a gamecube or classic controller would have worked better then the sideways Wiimote.  Now for games like Donkey Kong Country Returns the sideways nun-chuck looks like it would perfectly for that game but not this one. 

Spoilers!! Spoilers!!Spoilers!! Spoilers!!


    Okay it is now time to talk about the story and to me the story would have made more sense if this was before the first game not towards the end of the series (or at least before the Prime Games.)  There are just so many parts to this games story that do not make sense with its placement in the time line.  The biggest of these "Why is this happening" Moments is when Samus is facing Ridley for about the fourth time in the series (Ok three of them were Meta Ridley but its the same monster.)  Even though she has faced him before she acts like a little baby practically wetting herself from fear and seemingly killing one of her friends in her fear.  (He is later shown to have survived but still.)  This shouldn't have ever happened she is a powerful bounty hunter with a gun for an arm there is no reason she is afraid of him.  If this was first time she ever faced Ridley or anything like him then I could understand but it wasn't.  Not only this but the constant talk about the stupid baby Metroid from Super Metroid (On the Super Nintendo.)  This makes Samus all self reflective and talk a lot.  Just a bunch of exposition talking about the story of this game and Super Metroid and its really annoying.  In fact with out the stupid story or if this was just placed earlier in the time line the game would be a lot better.  Even the pee your pants scared when Ridley showed up.  All they had to do was get rid of the stupid baby and this game could have been a look back to how she was before she became the bad ass bounty hunter she is today.  Instead they kill Samus's tough character making her into a wimp.  The story is hands down the worst part of the game the stupid controls were tolerable but the story is not.  It pisses me off even now thinking about it. 

    Okay now to cheer myself up I am going to talk about the combat and items.  This was a part I really liked.  The battles were fun and even though you might fight someone over and over again the big battles were still fun.  I always felt worry when I saw that giant tree creature or the bull thing that would reflect my attacks back at me.  I also like the items used in the game I thought some were used creatively like using the grapple beam to fish (Fighting a giant lava fish monster was fun.)  Using the missile to crack the ice and then the bomb to shatter it.  I thought is was fun and creative.  Back to the commander allowing you to use the weapons and items he lets you was good but also stupid.  There is a point when Samus is slowly dying because she is walking along the bottom of a super heated volcanic area instead of being allowed to use her Veria suit which would have let her crossed safely.  Its just these stupid leaks in logic that make this system make little sense. 

    Okay so over all this game isn't a terrible game its just not a good Metroid game.  If the game took place really early in the time like I could forgive the story.  The controls are just stupid and could be done way better with any other controller setup then just the Wiimote.  The Graphics are beautiful and the music isn't bad.  The action is fast paced and fun.  The Speed just makes me happy and the hand to hand is also really cool.    If I were to score it I would have to give it a 6.5 out of 10 maybe a 7 but no higher then that.  So those are "My Thoughts On" Metroid Other M.

My Thoughts On: Wolverine

    "He they hi there ho there my friendsarenios I am the fantablous (no no no no that was a stupid word I should do that again)  I am the best thing since the first thing and I go by the name of Deadpool (thats a better opening.)  Welcome to "My Thoughts On" some random super person and today we are talking about Wolverine.  Now let me tell you me and Wolve go way back but it does my heart (I think I have one of those anyway) good to see him the resident Marvel Bad Ass at number eight on the list (Maybe this Wombat guy isn't as much of a loser as I thought......okay he still is a huge loser but never mind.)  So I guess he wants me to tell you all why Wolverine is Awesome and such huh well I might do that or maybe I might make fun of him....or both"

"So let us start with the funniest part of this whole thing......James hahahahah yes James.  Marvel's "Bad Ass"  went from an awesome name like Logan which just sounds cool to James Howlett. The name just sounds really stupid. I mean if he wanted to be cool he should have gone with a name like Wade Wilson (That name just screams manilyness.)  So James (hahaha) was born in Canada (the second coolest thing to come out of Canada)  in the early 19th century (Wow he is a lot older then he looks I wonder what kind of anti aging cream he uses.)  He has fought in most of the great wars.  World War I, World War II, The War on Terror, The War on Drugs, and War and Peace.  Some of those may not have been factual but to be honest I don't really care.  He served along side of Captain America in World War II (then again so did I....don't believe me check Cable and Deadpool issue  #45.  By the way I no longer have someone telling me when I can break the fourth wall.  Is that right Andy Mighty-Wombat Balbac thats right I know who you are.) "

    "Now I know what your thinking how does someone born in the really early 19th century life to fight through both of the World Wars.  Well if you really don't know then you probably don't know who Wolverine is and probably aren't reading this and that means I'm not really talking to anyone and I should probably shut up.....Okay on to his powers.  So yea Wolverine has a natural healing factor (Okay so mine is just modeled after his but if you make fun of me for it I will find you and you don't want to know what will happen then.)  So yes healing factor so he basically he can't die and that is how he survived so long.  He also has heightened senses like smell hearing and eyesight (Boring I know) however the cool part about his powers is the fact that he has bone claws that come out between his knuckles (Yes bone not Adamantium those come later.)  The super fancy metal was added to his bones by our good friends at the Weapon X program (Such a great band of evil butchering monsters how I love hating them.)  So now Wolverine is a indestructible killing machine and he is mad.  (This is the best part of the story)  he goes on a killing spree destroying the Weapon X facility and many of the people there (The entrails were every where, and it took the Janitor a long time to get it all cleaned up.)  So now Wolverine is the bad ass you know and love he ends up joining the X-Men (He claims he is the best at what he does, and what he does ain't nice.  I say however that I am the best at what Wolverine does.)"

    "What you might not know is the Wolverine walks around the real world as actor Hugh Jackman.  This was made obvious by him portraying Wolverine in the X-Men movies.  (Thankfully using this logic it means I am Ryan Reynolds under this mask.)  Jackman has been trying to hide this by acting as other characters in other movies and even host the Oscars (I won an Oscar once okay more stole an Oscar but I still have one.)  I am close to catching Mr. Jackman and revealing his secret to the world, however several restraining orders and the fact that I am a comic book character is holding me back (I have to put all of my faith into Ryan to get the job done for me.)"

    "Now I the great and mysterious Deadpool have gone up against Wolverine several times (Winning sometimes even.......I mean I always win ALWAYS!!!!)  Right I have to keep my thoughts under control (Chocolate Pudding.)  I guess that won't work.  Fighting Wolverine even helped me clear up some insanity with the help of Dr. Bong (But that is a story for another day.)"

    "Okay I am tired of talking about the old fur ball.  However I will keep going on my hunt of Hugh Jackman (I must not let my fictional character status stop me from my mission.)  So I am going to sign off on this "My Thoughts On" with a word of advice.  "When all else fails blow something up"  So that is all I have to say about the Mutton Chopped on named Wolverine."

The Legend of Zelda Files: Random Target

    Welcome back as we look into another one of the "Legend of Zelda Files"  Now today we ran into a slight problem.  We were not given a subject to interview this week.  So my boss randomly picked out someone who I am going to met up with now.  However I have not been told who this individual will be.  However I was told I will be in for a surprise.  This looks like the place now.  Hummm the "Mushroom Kingdom" well this doesn't seem normal.  Well I just got a message from my boss that I am interviewing a Mr. Omb.  So lets get right into this edition of "The Legend of Zelda Files"

Me: "So Mr. Omb thank you for meeting with me on such short notice."

Mr. Omb: "Please call me Bob, and your welcome I figured this should be a good interview."

Mo: "So your Bob-Omb right?  Aren't you a character from the Mario Brothers?"

Bob-onb: "That is correct I am Bob-omb from the Mario Brothers series."

Me: "Well I mean you no disrespect but why are you on a Legend of Zelda interview series?"

Bob-omb: "Well believe it or not I was actually in a couple Legend of Zelda games."

Me: "Really I did not know that.  What games were you in?"

Bob-omb: "Well I was in  The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening as well as The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap."

Me: "That is rather interesting.  I was not aware of that. So how did you get into the Legend of Zelda games from here?"
Bob-omb:  "It is actually a pretty funny story.  I was just some a guy who was looking for work.  I had slipped my application into a couple places to look for jobs.  I ended up flipping burgers at a Burger King when I got a call from a Placement Organization saying they found a Temp Job for me.  That is how I ended up working on the Legend of Zelda games.  However I did not want to do to much because I had started getting good money from the Mario Series."

Me: "Well thats a very interesting story Bob.  I did not know thats how things worked.  So since this is the first time I have been ever been assigned to a split series case so I have to ask how do you like working on the Mario Brothers series?"

Bob-omb: "I have to say despite being a recurring villain who just blows up I have to honestly say I love doing it.      Everyone there is a lot of fun to work with especially The Mario Brothers and Bowser."

Me: "What are the Mario Brothers like?"

Bob-omb: "Well they can be kind of stuck up but they are both good guys.  I like Luigi a little better then Mario.  Him and I usually like to get together a couple times a week and just hang around for a while.  Mario however is kind of stuck up but he is a good guy.  Believe it or not Bowser is one of the nicest people around.  He often hangs out with Luigi and I when he can but he is busy a lot."

Me: "That sounds like a rather good bunch of people you have there.  So what about Princess Peach? What is she like?"

Bob-omb: "She is a compleat and total B with an itch.  Such a huge drama queen.  Constantly making stupid demands and gets upset if something does not go perfectly.  She just throws a temper tantrum."

Me: "Oh wow I was not expecting to hear that.  Is there anything surprising you can tell us about anyone else?"
Bob-omb: "Well believe it or not Gumba is one of the funniest people I have ever meet.  He is often making jokes about everything and man he is funny.  You just don't expect him to be that funny."

Me: "Interesting so would you ever consider being in another Legend of Zelda title?"

Bob-omb:  "Well it depends.  If I get an offer on a part then I might consider it.  It just depends on what I am doing with the Mario series.  I wouldn't count me out in the future, but we will just have to see what the future holds."

Me: "Well Bob thank you for meeting with me.  Before I go though what happens when you explode?"

Bob-omb:  "Well the only way I can show you is if I actually blew up."

Me: "Well I think I am willing to see this for myself.  Let me just place the camera over here so we can capture this event."

Bob-omb: "Ok be ready this might hurt a little bit."

Me: "Ok I am ready.  I will see you next time on The Legend of Zelda Files."

KABOOM!!!!!!!!!!

Place of Birth: New Orleans, Louisiana (That might be something good to know about myself)
Status:active  (What in the hell does this even mean??)
Identity: Publicly known (Hey so is mine Wade Wilson I even worked for the government I had a badge and everything)
Aliases: Death, Le Diable Blanc, formerly Robert Lord, Cajun" (I have met Death and he is nothing like her...she is much better looking and has great bone structurer)

"I know what your saying....Golly Gee Deadpool you king of awesomeness that was awfully lazy of you just copying and pasting for a wiki site.  To this I would respond with a bullet to your knee caps and tell you to shut up might also insult your mamma (So many choices so little time)"

"So what else can we find  on this mighty Wikipedia thing what about powers and abilities"

Powers
Molecular Acceleration: Remy has the power to take the potential energy stored in an object and convert it to kinetic energy thus “charging” that item with explosive results. He prefers to charge smaller objects, such as his ever-present playing cards, as the time required to charge them is greatly reduced and they are much easier for him to throw. The only real limitation to this ability is the time required to charge the object. The larger it is the more time it takes. Most charging takes place through direct skin contact.
Enhanced Agility: Gambit's ability to tap energy also grants him superhuman agility and dexterity which gives him an added edge he has used to his advantage by developing a unique acrobatic fighting style.
Static Interference: Ability to create static, because of the charged potential energy always in his body, that shields his mind from detection and intrusion by even the most powerful telepaths. The shield has the added effect of destabilizing touch based powers.
Hypnotic Charm: Ability to "charge" the kinetic energy within a person's brain, allowing a subtle influence over any sentient mind. This power allows Gambit to compel others to believe what he says and agree with anything he suggests. More powerful minds have proven immune to Gambit's charm.
Toxic Transmutation: As Death, he has the ability to convert inert materials into toxic substances; for example, transforming breathable air into poisonous gases.
Abilities
Bilingual: He is fluent in English and Cajun French.
Expert Marksman: he is profound in throwing small objects such as cards, bolas, knives, and balls with great accuracy.
Master Combatant: though not on the same level as Captain America, he is still a profound fighter often employing martial arts, street fighting, and acrobatics. He is well adept in martial arts Savate, French kickboxing, and Bojutsu, the art of using a Bo staff.

"Ok I will give Gambit some credit he has some cool powers, and skills I would kill for the ability to make things go boom just by touching them.  As well as making people agree with me I would be really easy for me to get jobs and lots of pay.  I might be able to convince that jerk T-Ray to just kill himself so I don't have to mess with him anymore.  Him and his creepy black magic powers and mind bending crap but more on him at eleven or something"

"Well I am tired of your dumb ugly faces.  So I am going to end this thing.  So I guess thanks for "My Thoughts On Gambit" (ok it was more like x-men.wikia.com's thoughts on Gambit but thats besides the point.)  Tune in next time as I lazily look at another super hero.  Same Pool time same Pool channel."

My Thoughts On: The Green Lantern


   "Hello ladies and Jerks it is time for my first crack at this "My Thoughts On" thing a ma jig.  Oh by the way I am your friendly neighborhood Merc with the Mouth who goes by the name of Deadpool (And sometimes The Crimson Nutcase but I only let me people know call me that. Or something?)  As I said last time I was hired by some strange guy calling himself the Mighty Wombat (More like the Mighty Wom---crap I don't have a wise crack.)   Jerk face (There thats a good one) wanted me to review his top ten favorite Doo Gooders (losers mainly.)  So I guess we should start talking about whoever number ten is.  Stay tuned or I will feed you to something Nasty."

"So who is our first Feeb on the list of losers.  Lets see ummmmmmm number ten The Green Lantern.........(Looks like the Wombat is going to owe me more money for this pile of bile.)  So I really have to talk about this evil evil man.  This jerk who is trying to steal my Actor.  (He was me first HAL)  Ryan was the only man to ever be inside of m........let me rephrase that.  He was the only man who has ever played me.  (That was a close one hehe oh wait they can read this........PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE THOUGHTS IN THE PARENTHIES.)  OAKY WAIT.....thats better sorry left the caps on.  (Didn't want you inter-losers...inter-jerks....inter-web heads yea that one is better to cry because Uncle Wade was yelling at you.)  Anyhoo I am supposed to talk about him as a hero or something stupid like that."

"Now wait a second there are like thirty five thousand Green Lanterns which one am I doing again........Talking about...(What is with all of these bad word choices.)  Ohhh John Stewart.  Cool I love that Comedian.  I didn't know he was a Green Lantern (Why isn't the movie about him? Or could he just play Hal Jordan instead of Ryan.)  So the host of the Daily Show is a Green Lantern does that mean Stephen Colbert is the Flash??? (in that case why does he have Captan America's Shield.....also that would make an awesome comic book.)  Okay back to business John Stewart is the Green Lantern and he is on this list so lets talk about the loser I guess."

"John Stewart is a successful comedian and talk show host.  He works for Comedy Central (I should get a job there.)  He interviews politicians, authors, actors, actresses and other people of interest.  He is one of those smart people and has some good ideas about politics.  In his spare time he is a galactic police officer know as a Green Lantern (What a dumb name by the way.)  He is a former Marine and an architect who was selected by the Guardians  to join the Green Lantern Corps.  (The word corps makes me want to shoot something)  Stewart was trained to be the back up for Hal Jordan (I would back that guy up with a shot to the head)"

"Stewart Then joined the Justice League actually he was one of the founding member.  (Where does he find the time between taping the Daily Show.)  He even formed a little bit of a relationship with Hawk Girl (It has to be those sexy wings) but it ended when her people invaded earth and she turned out to be giving her people Earth Secrets (Naughty sexy winged lady)  Yea ummmmmmm she did a naughty thing betraying the Earthicans.  Well we kicked the Hawk peoples butt and John started dating some Super Model going by Vixen (Stupid DC getting all the Super Models.  Ok I guess Syrian and Vanessa are pretty darn Sexy as well as Typhoid Mary (Ok she would rather go kill me then anything but when I really can't die its not that bad.)  It does seem that Stewart has feelings for the Winged one.  That kid in the future that was his and hawk girls son but that doesn't matter right?"

"So that is all I have to say about John Stewart the Green Lantern.  Talk show host, comedian, architect, and former Marine.   So I guess the guy isn't all that bad I might not have to kill this Green Lantern if he is really one of my favorite comedians.  Well those are My Thoughts On the Green Lantern.  Well this is your new best friend Deadpool saying that you better keep reading these or I will find you.


Ok this is Andy here I had to read Deadpool's work before it was posted.  The Daily Show's John Stewart is not the Green Lantern's John Stewart.  Ok just making sure people knew this ok bye.

My Thoughts On: The Super Hero Top Ten Introduction

   Well I recently posted my top ten favorite Super Heroes.  Now this will work out like my last top ten list of favorite video games.  I made the list then I will write articles about each one.  However I will not be doing them my self so let me introduce my host for my next couple top ten lists.  The Bea Arthur loving, Chimichanga saying, Mask wearing, and 4th wall breaking friendly neighbor hood Merc with the mouth.  No it's not The Killer Moth (no idea why you thought of him.)  Give a wild round of applause (or get shot in the tummy) by DEADPOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

    "Hello ladies and gentlemen and ladies (Big hello to the ladies.)  I am the Merc with the mouth and I will be here for your viewing pleasure.   I bet you are wondering why I am here.  Most of the time I would tell you its none of your bees wax and probably shoot you or something, BUT I have been told not to kill anyone while doing this.  So yea reasons I'm doing this right ummm well I was just walking down the street (singing do a diddy diddy dum diddy do)  When out of no where this guy walks up to me some Mighty Wombat guy or something.  (What a goof strange costume and a tail.  He said said it shot out a grappling hook.....note to self I have to get me one of those) 

"Do you think I would look good with a grappling hook tail....If you say no I might have to do uncomfortable things to you"

"So yes this Wombat guy asked me to to help him out with this top ten list.  Something about Super Heroes.  Now I didn't look at the list and if I am some how not on it I might have to do something.  (Okay I'm not really a Super Hero but still)  He also asked me to talk to you before hand so you mush brained bags a squishy stuff aren't scared."

"So now you might be wondering who I the Great Deadpool am.  Well I am the Merc with the mouth a gun for hire that has had many successful jobs.  I have killed many people from innocent to guilty.  If there is money you can point me and I will shoot.  That is all I am going to say about myself though because talking about myself is kind of annoying.  I would rather talk about something different.....like ummm magic.  Those ruffly shirted fancy pants wearing hot girl sawing  son of a bi.....wait I have to keep this clean ummm dweb."

"I think I am off track but that is normal.  So yeah I will be your host with the most for a while.  So stay tuned for "My Thoughts On" ok more like "That Wombat Guy's Thoughts On" His Top Ten Favorite Super Heroes."

My Thoughts on: Bender

Well everybody it is time for the end of this mini series of "My Thoughts On" about my favorite cartoon and television characters. I am going out with a bang who would probably be number one are two if I did a top ten list. In this installment we will be talking about someone who has done everything. Super Hero, Wrestler, Social hero, master thief, mental patient, Television Star, Bending unit, Ship cook, and God. That is right I am talking about Bender Bending Rodríguez from the show Futurama. Now read this and if you don't like it you can BITE MY SHINEY METAL ASS!!!!!

Now where do I start when I am talking about such a great individual? Well I think the early years of this young mechanical magic man. Bender was built in America's Heartland Mexico. He was released from the Mom's Friendly Robot Company as a defective robot and is now mortal meaning if he is destroyed then he is gone for good. Before meeting Philip J. Fry he worked as a bending unit bending girders that were being made into Suicide Booths. After finding this out he attempted to kill himself using a Suicide Booth but failed when Fry interfered. Bender and Fry became fast friends and ended up joining the Planet Express delivery crew. So now Bender, Fry, and Leela work with Professor Farnsworth and they all will go out on amazing adventures.

Now that is Bender's past so lets talk about the Robot himself. Bender is a chain smoking drunk who burps fire. He likes to cook despite the fact that he is absolutely terrible at it. Bender has a huge ego and often does things to get more attention for himself. Which is always funny because he does really strange things to get attention. He is a kleptomaniac constantly stealing things which sometimes causing him pain. Like getting "sick" after stealing a watch and slicing himself up after stealing a sword. He constantly uses fembots making up stories like being a rich Hollywood director or just lying and using them. However he still gets the girls. He even dated a couple humans including Amy Wong and Lucy Lu.

As I said before Bender is a jack of all trades. He was a Ultimate Robot Fighter known as Bender the Offender. He had a successful stint in the ring before his popularity started slipping and he was asked to change his persona to The Gender Bender and lose to Destructor. He did not want to throw the fight so he lost instead. He also had a time when he was the Super King a member of the New Justice Team. He had super strength and stretching limbs also he had the super ability to open and close the door in his chest. Him and the rest of the team fought against the Evil Zoo Keeper but after the capture of Leela's Parents the team was forced to steal for the Zoo Keeper. He also also was a Blurns Ball manager for Leela's short career. His biggest highlight was making Leela do two bean commercials making one hundred dollars and one hundred pesos each. Then his biggest job was GOD. Yes Bender was god and he was doing a pretty good job at it well until everyone died. After the people died he ended up meeting God or a computer that smashed into God. So yea Bender littery talked to God.

Now for things that Bender wishes were true. He wishes he was Napoleon, a king, a Duke, a folk singer, and a magician. When he is attacked by a magnet he will become a folk singer but will be really angry about it. He even went on ture with beck playing the "wash board" which was actually his torn up chest. He also wishes he was the greatest but I have no idea the greatest at what.

I am going to wrap this up before Bender gets upset and tries to steal my organs or something. So those are my thought on Bender the Robot of pure awesomeness. He is the King even in real live or if it is just inside his mind. Join us next time for a list of my favorite do-gooders. Not sure if it should be a top ten or just a top five. It will be hosted by a very special guest. So stay tuned to my list or I will hunt you down and do something random that is right I am talking to you the whole one or two people who might read this.

They will often blow themselves up right before they die and the say "To Die without leaving a corpse such is the way of the Garo" That is all the information I have but I am sure it will be helpful."

My Thoughts on: Tommy Oliver

Well my TV and Cartoon character series is almost over with only two more to go and I am going out with a bang. In this article I am going to talk about the greatest Power Ranger of all time Tommy Oliver aka the Green, White, Red, Red, and Black ranger. He has been a Power Ranger in five different seasons starting in Mighty Morphing Power Rangers Season 1 and then ending in Power Rangers Dino Thunder. So lets look at Tommy Oliver and may the Power Protect you.

Well the obvious place to start the story of Tommy Oliver is at the beginning. This is when he first shows up as the evil Green Power Ranger. That is right the first time we see the GREATEST POWER RANGER EVER! He is evil. Yes I know it is sad that such a great man can be evil but he was. Thanks to the Evil Retia Repulsa. She had Tommy under an evil spell and gave him the Dragon Coin. This allowed him to morph into the powerful Green Ranger as well as the power over the Dragonzord. Tommy managed to defeat the Power Rangers multiple times as well as break into the Command Center messing with the technology and cutting Zordon off from this Dimension. The Green Ranger was the one evil person who managed to come the closest to defeating the Power Rangers by himself.

Eventually the Rangers found away to break Retia's spell and Tommy was released and convinced to join the Power Rangers. He remained the Green Ranger but all was not well in the world. The Evil Lord Zedd (aka The Emperor of Evil) entered the evil scene to do what Retia could not do. Other problems start to arise when the Green Ranger powers fade and then get distinguished forever however Tommy is not going to lose touch with the Rangers. While as a Ranger a romantic relationship between Tommy and Kimberly began to form.

Zordon and Alpha vanish for awhile to work on creating a new Ranger to help out the team. This ends with the White Ranger descending from the sky bathed in white light (This was freaking awesome to watch just saying.) The White Ranger is reviled to be Tommy and he rejoins the team in the leadership role (Since Jason the origional Red Ranger left for some Peace Conference replacing him with a less experienced Rocky.) So Tommy is now the leader of the Power Ranger. As well as more powerful then before now powering the White Tiger Zord which is massively awesome. The Tiger Zord could combine with the Mega Thunder Zord to make the awesome Mega Tigerzord. However Tommy was unable to control his Zord at first but soon figured it out like a smart little boy so you know yay him. However the Zords the Rangers had were destroyed and they had to get new powers.

So enter the White Ninja Ranger which really doesn't change anything but the Zords get cooler. Tommy gets the Falcon Zord which I have to say is rather awesome. Unlike the Tiger Zord this doesn't have its own Warrior Mode but it does have Rockets or Lasers or something out of the Wing Tips. When the Falcon Zord joins together with with the Shogun Zords it becomes the Mega Shogun Zord and it gains the ability to fly. The Falcon Zord was made to go with the Rangers Ninja Animal Zords before the Shogun Zords. The Rangers were finally able to beat Lord Zedd but a new threat shows up.

Lord Mondo of the Machine Empire shows up kicking Zedd and Retia off of the Moon. They Machine Empire is now going to try and do what Retia and Zedd failed and actually conquer Earth. There forces are to powerful and the Rangers need the power of the Zeo Crystal to become stronger. This is the Dawn of Power Rangers Zeo and Tommy goes from the White Ranger to the Red Ranger. He is captured along with Bulk and Skull and he is brain washed and is forced to combat the other rangers but is soon freed. After the Rangers themselves are enlarged to fight and destroy King Mondo we enter a dark day in Power Rangers history. This is when we "Shift Into Turbo."

Yes its Power Rangers Turbo and thankfully Tommy isn't in this season very long. So Tommy is once again the Red Power Ranger. Thankfully I don't have to talk about this one to much. Also not much happens except for the current Power Rangers graduating and then eventually going off with the rest of there lives. This is the last we see of Tommy until the Epicness that is "Forever Red" during Wild Force. This episode has every Red Ranger together fighting evil. If you haven't seen this episode then watch it now.

So Tommy has now been away from the Power Rangers long enough for him to finish collage and get a teaching job as a paleontologist. When three students discover Dino Crystals in Dr. Oliver's lab they become the new Power Rangers and Dino Thunder will roar into life. However I never saw much of this show. I do know that Tommy served as the teams mentor as well as later becoming the Black Power Ranger.

So over all Tommy was always a cool character and was always my favorite of the Power Rangers. His actor Jason David Frank went on after the show to become a mixed martial arts fighter. He still looks awesome and I would hate to be anyone who would give him crap about being on Power Rangers. So that is the story of Tommy Oliver in all of his awesomeness. Stay tuned for the conclusion of the cartoon television character series of "My Thoughts On" as we talk about Bender from Futurama. To all of you "May the Powere Protect You."

The Legend of Zelda Files: Wizrobe follow up

"Hello and welcome to this special edition of the Legend of Zelda files. As you my remember from our last installment we talked to a Mr. Wizrobe who mentioned a conspiracy to keep Link's evil actions covered up. That interview lead to Mr. Wizrobe being murdered in cold blood by a hooded figure wearing all brown. This lead to an attack on our station and the murder of my predecessor Andy Balbac. However the news was able to get out and I am here to replace Mr. Balbac. I am Andy Balbac 2.0 and you are watching the Legend of Zelda Files."

"Today we will be following up last weeks interview with some investigative reporting we will also be trying to find out who this cloaked attacker. For this we have hired a bounty hunter a people call a Dark Nut (Twilight Princess version.) Mr. Nut you have agreed to help us find our killer."

Mr. Nut: "Yes I will be. I have a team of professionals who will be helping me find and destroy this attacker. This is Fang a fellow Dark Nut (Wind Waker version.) He is skilled at tracking using his dog like head also gives him heightened senses. Then we have our enforcer The Iron Knuckle."

Iron Knuckle: "grrrrunt"

Andy: "Why you sure are a big boy aren't you?"

Iron Knuckle: "GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTT"

Mr. Nut: "If you want to keep living I think you should avoid trying to talk to him."

Andy: "I think I will take that advice Mr. Nut. So what will happen when you catch this person?"

Mr. Nut: "Well we will try to capture him but if we can't capture him then we will kill the person"

Andy: "Oh really well I do wish you luck in your quest to find this villain."

Mr. Nut: "Thank you Andy. Lets move out team."

Iron Knuckle: "GURRRRRRNNNNNNNTTTTTT"

Andy: "Well there you have it folks this killer will be tracked down and he will be caught. As for you Killer I would run because these guys are going to find you and you really better hope that the Iron Knuckle don't catch you. I think he could knock your head off with one swing."


"Since this article was posted we found out that they did run into this killer but sadly he managed to get away. Sadly Fang was injured in the fight but he will make a recovery. We do not know if or when they will catch this monster. We will keep you updated for what happens. So join us next time for a new Legend of Zelda Files."

My Thoughts on: The Tick

"Hello my good citizens I am the Tick the sworn protector of The City. The Mighty Wombat and I did a little switcheroo and I am now writing to you fine smelling people about The Tick and well to be honest I dislike that guy. He tried to steal my identity and then tried to kill me over it. I mean geash what did I ever do to him."

Random person: "whisper whisper whisper"

The Tick: "Whats that?"

Random person: "Whisper whisper whisper whisper"

The Tick: "Your saying this isn't about the Tick who owns that night club"

Random Person: "Whisper whisper whisper"

The Tick: "Ohhhh this is about me well I would be a monkey great grand father. Why thank you whoever you are. Well it looks like I have made a mistake well you know when you mess up you should take a look a the test and check that answer wrong."

Random Person: "Your strange"

The Tick: "Thank you my friend you are to. Well that was weird I wonder who that guy was well no need for thinking now my friends. Let use Hug our destiny and talk about me The Tick.

"I am going to start this talking to and about myself with an awesome intro so her I go right now going to say it."

"I am the wild blue yonder. The front line in a never-ending battle between good and not-so-good. Together with my stalwart sidekick Arthur, and the magnanimous help of some other folks I know, we form the yin to villainy's malevolent yang. Destiny has chosen us. Wicked men — you face the Tick!"

"Yes I think that sums me up quite well now there are many people who ask why I became a super hero and well I just don't know I guess I have always been one. I don't really know anything other then how to beat up super villains. When it comes to fighting villains I am the best around. I am almost invulnerable and have a great battle cry that makes the villains quake in there boots. By screaming SPOON!!!!!! I can cause the evil dooers to stop their evil ways and run in fear and smellyness."

"Now I may not be the smartest super hero in the game but I do have plenty of words to live by like this famous quote that changed many lives and may have even caused world peace. Or maybe a nun to hug a clown."

"Destiny's powerful hand has made the bed of my future, and it's up to me to lie in it. I am destined to be a superhero. To right wrongs, and to pound two-fisted justice into the hearts of evildoers everywhere. And you don't fight destiny. No sir. And, you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future, or you get all... scratchy."

"I know that one was mind blowing but there is more to come like this gem"

"Everybody was a baby once, Arthur. Oh, sure, maybe not today, or even yesterday. But once. Babies, chum: tiny, dimpled, fleshy mirrors of our us-ness, that we parents hurl into the future, like leathery footballs of hope. And you've got to get a good spiral on that baby, or evil will make an interception."

"There is also this magical number that is a philosophy on life and our connection to the world"

"I hate broccoli, and yet, in a certain sense, I am broccoli."
"Those are just some of the mighty and world changing power of my mighty words. I have seen many a person who have been changed for the better because of my mighty words and they make me fell all tingly inside to see all the good my words do."

"Now when it comes to my love life I do have one woman in my life who is very important to me. This amazing woman is name JUSTICE!!!! Yes Justice is the most important person in my life. Yes my side kick Arthur is pretty important but he is no Justice. Justice is a women who always shows love when I help her progress her goals and save some kitten from a tree thats on fire I am always one to help that kitten.

"I bet you internet people want to know some of the villains I have squashed while I have been doing my super heroeness. Well I have done battle with the worst of the best....or is it the worst of the worst.....maybe the best of the worst I don't really know. Lets just start with the evil of a man..plant...thing names El Seed."

"El Seed is truly an evil person flower thing. Ok to be honest I have no idea what he is all I know is he is bad news. El Seed is a living Mexican flower who has developed a serum to bring plants to life. One time he even dumped the stuff on me. I was sprouting plants for a long time. Trust me kids having corn in your ears feels very odd and icky. However after he made a corn army (The guy who usually writes these said that made him happy) I managed to defeat him and cure myself."

"The Breadmaster is the next weird person of evil to talk about. Him and his evil pastries really caused some problems. With his exploding or expanding bread bombs. I will say this to his credit the bread might have been evil but it did taste good. Him and his henchman Buttery Pat caused havoc all over the baking institutions of the City. He was defiantly one loaf short of a bakers dozen."

"Hummm who should I talk about next the? The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight? No no no......Dinosaur Neil? Well he isn't a super villain....The Man Eating Cow? No how about Chairface Chippendale? Yes yes that guy. Well ummmm he is defiantly evil. Kind of a mob boss I would say. Nothing really to talk about him. Rich, well educated, a schemer, wrote the first three letters of his name with laser on the moon, and he has a chair for a head. Nothing outstanding there just a well respected crook. Oh did I mention the chair for a head yes ok then no need to talk about him further."

"I guess the last villain to talk about would be the worlds greatest or worst super villain named the Terror. This man is scary to just talk about his evil deeds stretch back a century. He was friends with Joseph Stalin as well as being famous for getting in a fist fight with President Theodore Roosevelt. The Terror is currently one hundred and fifteen years old and is still as bad as ever. With his League of Evil consisting of the Man Eating Cow, The Human Ton and Handy, Stalingrad, and the evil alien Tuun-La. The terrorized the City holding the mayor hostage. I was having a bit of a break down at the time but I totally saved the day and uttered my famous catch phrase SPOON!!!!!!!!!!."

"Wow four pages well I sure can talk about myself for a long time. I guess I will have to leave you with one of my famous quotes.
"Eating kittens is just plain... plain wrong! And no-one should do it, ever!"
"I hope this look into my life has helped you straighten your lives up and get you flying right. I am The Tick and my warning to the people is this. May Evil beware and may Good dress warmly and eat plenty of fresh vegetables.

My Thoughts on: Sylar (Warning this will include spoilers)

I have been looking forward to this one for a ever since I started writing these articles. Sylar is my favorite character from the show Heroes. He is the main villain of the show as well as a guy you actually feel sorry for. He is well written and makes the show worth watching just because he is in it. With his ability to understand how other "Evolved Humans" abilities work he can take others abilities however most of the time it requires him to kill his victims. Sylar is played by a great actor named Zachary Quinto who I am actually afraid I will always see as Sylar. Zachary starred as Spock in the latest Star Trek movie and I just saw him as Sylar the whole time. I am going to keep the spoilers to a low level but keeping it to his powers through out but I might get into some events of later episodes. So let us look at Sylar before he slices your head open and steals your ability.

Sylar's real name Gabriel Gray who was just a simple watchmaker who always wanted to be special. He showed the ability to know when things are broken and how to fix them. Often times noticing a time piece is just a second slow and knowing how to fix it. He was approached by Dr. Chandra Suresh about having some sort of special ability. Gabriel was excited to know he could be special and does everything he can to help the Doctor. However when Gabriel finds out what he can do after killing a man with telekinetic abilities he shows the power off to Chandra who is impressed. However the Doctor finds out that Gabriel who is going by Sylar is killing people. Sylar ends up killing the Doctor which starts him down the path of Sylar.

Through out season one Sylar steals six abilities killing all of his victims. The first power he steals is Telekinesis from Brian Davis. This is the first time he uses his ability to take another special persons power. He then murders and steals the powers of Trevor Zeitlan who had the ability of Shattering. Which is used by forming a gun shape with the hand and can shoot things. He gains the ability to freeze things from James Walker who was the first person we see killed. He heads off to Texas to kill a cheerleader named Claire Bennet however he fails after Peter Petrellie. After this he is captured and taken to the company but ends up escaping He ends up killing a man named Zane Taylor who has the power to melt objects. Sylar uses this ability to impress Mohinder Suresh whose father Sylar killed. Mohinder was led to believe the Sylar was Zane and the two started helping each other. However after Sylar mutders Dale Smither he gains super hearing and ends up being found out by Mohinder to be a murderer. Mohinder tries to kill Sylar but fails and Sylar escapes after a confrontation with Peter. This however will lead to the murder of Isaac Mendez taking his precognitive abilities seeing himself destroying New York with a massive explosion. This leads to a confrontation with his mother and her accidental death. He decides he is going to do it and finds and kills the exploding man named Ted Sprague making Sylar a walking nuke who is going to blow up the city. However he is stopped and seemingly killed when he is stabbed by a sword. However he ends up escaping into the sewer.

Now I don't really want to spoil to much more then this (That being from the last episode of season one) However as time goes one he gains more powers over time including.
* Rapid cellular regeneration from Claire Bennet (The Second Coming)
* Alchemy from Bob Bishop (The Butterfly Effect)
* Clairsentience from Bridget Bailey (One of Us, One of Them)
* Sound manipulation from Jesse Murphy (One of Us, One of Them)
* Electric manipulation from Elle Bishop (It's Coming)
* Lie detection from Sue Landers (Our Father)
* Imprinting from Joe Macon (Out of Town... On Business)
* Shape shifting from James Martin (Into Asylum)
* Disintegration from Tom Miller (I Am Sylar)
* Flight from Nathan Petrelli (An Invisible Thread)
* Empathy from Lydia (Let It Bleed)

Now when it comes to Sylar and his development over the time is rather fun to watch killing the people who he finds have powers. He want to become the strongest person with abilities. His character is dark and creepy with the coolest looking eye brows. Now mote things have happened then this but I really don't want to spoil it. The first season is the best season of Heroes however Sylar kept me watching. His conflicts with Peter are always entertaining as for the most part they are equal in power (For the most part). However I am going to wrap this article up by saying that Sylar is one of my favorite television characters even if I did a top ten list he will be very high on the list maybe making it to the top three. He is an incredible character as well as very well acted making me a happy boy every time I see him as well as seeing Zachary Quinto in any role. So those are my thoughts on Sylar and I just love the evil creep.

Legend of Zelda Files: Wizrobe

Disclaimer: This is done for fun and there isn't any actual connection between what is said in this article and the real character. I do not own this character or the Legend of Zelda series they are owned by Nintendo. If I did own it then I probably would not be writing this.


Welcome my dear friends to another installment of The Legend of Zelda Files with your host Andy Balbac. I am Andy Balbac and I will take you deep into the background of one of the greatest franchises (the greatest in this non egotistical reporters humble opinion.) Todays interview comes from an enemy from Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask. We will talk to a man called Wizrobe. Or is it the Wizrobe? Maybe a Wizrobe? Well regardless lets get into the interview.

Me: "Mr. Wizrobe thank you for meeting with me today. However it would have been nice if you wouldn't have attacked me when I got here."

Wizrobe: "Yea I am sorry about that I have been very paranoid lately."

Me: "Paranoid why are you paranoid"

Wizrobe: "It all started a while ago when some pointy eared kid dressed in green burst into my house."

Me: "That sounds like Link. What happened next."

Wizrobe: "This Link kid breaks into my room with a sword and shield as well as a bunch of other weapons. I felt like he was going to try to kill me and I defended myself the best I could."

Me: "It was always made to seem that you attacked first. Is this just claiming you are just an innocent person Link attacked un provoked."

Wizrobe: "Yes I am one of the many good natured creatures that monster has harmed for no reason."

Me: "So what happened after he attacked you?"

Wizrobe: "I tried to defend myself as best as I could but that monster kept trying to slash at me with his sword and he was even shooting arrows at me."

Me: "Thats just awful please continue"

Wizrobe: "Well he ended up defeating me and then he stole my......"

Me: "Its ok you can tell me what happened."

Wizrobe: "He stole my precious fire arrows from me."

Me: "Oh I did not know that I am sorry that happened."

Wizrobe: "It would have been ok if he only did this once but no it happens about six times."

Me: "How can he keep getting away with this?"

Wizrobe: "He has the backing of some big company Nintendo I think who covers up all of his illegal activities."

Me: "Big Business strikes again."

Wizrobe: "I know its terrible but someone needed to speak out against this monster."
Me: "Don't you think that might be dangerous."

Wizrobe: Yes it could very easily get me killed but as long as this interview makes it to air it will be worth it."

Me: "You are a very brave man for sticking up for the injustices that this Link has committed."

Wizrobe: "Thank you."

Me: "Can I ask you one more question?"

Wizrobe: "Sure."

Me: "Why is your name spelt Wizrobe instead of Wizzrobe like to rest of them?"

Wizrobe: "It was a typo and I just decided to go with it."

Me: "Oh no tragic story about it huh?"

Wizrobe: "Nope."

Me: "Well then thank you for meeting with me today please keep in touch and we will be sure this story gets out."

"That was the last we ever heard from Wizrobe as he was killed soon after this interview. An eye witnessed happened to see him being attacked by a figure completely covered in a brown robe wielding two blades coming out of his arms. No one saw the attackers face but he made quick work of Wizrobe. However he died for a good cause and the interview made it to air and I am going to be just fine."

My Thoughts on: Myotismon.

Ok this is another geek post about digimon from the first and second season. Myotismon is a vampire like digimon who feasts on the deleted data of defeated digimon (So many D words someone say it five times fast.) He is also one of the few digimon to get into the real world or at least one of the first. While in the real world he also got the taste for human blood. He is dressed like a classic vampire very fancy gentlemen like appearance swapping out the black with a purple but still looks fancy. He was just main villain in the first season of Digimon Adventure but he was the main villain in Digimon Adventure 02. So lets enter the darkness as we look at Myotismon.

Myotismon is the third boss in Digimon Adventure after beating Etimon in Server. Myotismon was the most powerful digimon the team has ever faced at the time and would easily beat the Digidestined even with the Digimon being able to digivolve into there ultimate level. Myotismon has many minions including DemiDevimon and Gatomon and origional enter the real world in search of the 8th digidestined so he may destroy them making the digidestined unable to beat him (he found a prophecy that said the 8th digidestined would destroy him.) He had his minions looking all over for this person who turned out to be the little sister of Tia named Kari. It turns out the Gatomon a cat digimon is Kari's partner and they eventually join together. Gatomon was able to digivolve to Angewomon and with the help of the other Digimon all of them combining their powers and killing Myotismon. However he is not really dead and as foretold by the prophecy he was resurrected at the time of the beast (6 minutes and 6 seconds after 6pm).

Venommyotismon is Myotismon's mega form also called his true form. He is much more powerful then his previous form but is no where near as smart. He is consumed by hunger even feasting on his own minions. He is very quick to anger and all he wants to do is devourer all life. However it wasn't until Wargraymon drilled into his chest getting the true body allowing them to destroy him. However his spirit survived and infused itself into the human Yukio Oikawa and use him to set the events of Digimon Adventure 02 into motion three years later.
In Digimon Adventure 02 he was behind all of the events that happened in the series. He created Mummymon and Arukenimon out of his DNA/Data. Then lead Ken Ichijouji to become the Digimon Emperor who created the dark spires, rings, and spirals. He used these to control digimon and stop them from digivolving. The Spires were then used to create powerful Digimon by Arukenimon and Mummymon to bring about the end of the world. Myotismon used the human body to spread dark spores to children controlling them and holding them for ransom. Myotismon told Oikawa that the spores would weaken the digital world defenses when it was actually used to resurrect himself. After a while he opened a portal to an extension of the digital world which causes dreams to come true. He finally shows himself as Malomyotismon who easily over powered the Digidestined. Even after the digidestined's desire to win resulted in all of the digivolved forms of the digimon to come out at once attacking Malomyotismon however it still wasn't enough to destroy the monster. Sadly his destruction was rather lame not really fitting the character but he was defeated by the combined light of all of the Digidestineds digivices all over the world (revealing that there are many all over the world not just Japan where the series takes place.) This combined light broke the darkness that Malomyotismon had created and defeating him. This completely destroyed Myotismon and he isn't seen again in the show.

So I really like Myotismon despite the lame death but his sheer power was rather cool. He was an interesting villain as well as a character in general. It seems he had a lot more to do with the events of season one then it seemed. That is Myotismon in a nutshell he is not as interesting as Impmon and Beelzemon actually having character development. However he works well for an ultimate evil character. He was cool and rather fun as well as very cold. The whole invading the Real World knocking out all of the communication with the rest of the world and even capturing and holding the adults hostage even brainwashing them. He is a good embodiment of evil. Don't worry though all he wants to do is devour your soul.

My Thoughts on: The Janitor


Yes its another Scrubs post about Sacred Hearts man of mystery. He is the man without a name only going by Janitor (which is even on his name tag.) Under him is a mountain of lies and pranks. He is the man the leader of the Janitorial staff and founder of the Brain Trust. So lets get out our mops and plungers and get take a look at the Janitor.


So lets try to figure out the Janitor's back story shall we? Well we can try but we have no idea what it is. He has so many different back stories the only one that we know is true is that he was in the Fugitive (The actor who plays him really was in the movie.) Other stories about the Janitor's background include him growing up believing his mother was his sister (Sister-mom) he thought his dad was his brother (brother-dad). He claimed that his mother once snapped her index finger because her husband was late for church. His dad once threw himself down the steps because his wife dented the car. Apparently his mom left his crib out in the driveway when a marble fountain just happened to fall from the sky. He claims to have a deaf sister, an inuit stepmother, a stripper brother, and funniest of all a step brother named Cleet who is older then his father. When Cleet had his midlife crisis he would not stop fighting with his step father and even slept with his mother. I bet your wondering how messed up is this guy just wait there is more of his lies and stories with his current life.


The Janitor is very cryptic about his normal life as well coming up with random lies and stories as the show progresses. He claims to be married to a woman who only has a pointer finger on one hand and thumb pinky on the other (She knitted JD a pair of shorts even though they are just scrubs with hemmed bottoms.) He also claims that he has a son named Timmy who was in a school play that JD made the Janitor miss. Timmy stopped eating as a result of this. The Janitor also took JD's lab coat and stethoscope to go to career day at Timmy's school as a Doctor instead of a Janitor (He called himself Dr. Jan Itor.)


Now there are some things about the Janitor that are true so lets get into this short section. The Janitor is a skilled taxidermist liking to use squirrels actually forming his own army. However he sadly had to trade his Squirrel army for a stuffed dog named Stephen. He is currently married to a lady named Lady (Ladinia Williams) who actually accepts her husband for who he is with all his craziness. As I mentioned earlier he was a former actor having a part in the movie "The Fugitive". He is also a world-class 100-meter hurdler which he proved true while running and hurdling over obstacles in order to tackle JD before he changed the batteries in a tracking device (The Janitor swallowed the chip and JD could track his movements.) Thats it the only things we know are true long list huh.


So after that lets get into the relationships with other characters. Mainly with JD, Dr. Cox, and Dr. Elliot Reed. So lets start with JD this is a strange relationship and probably the longest. The Janitor tortures JD constantly in retaliation to a penny that the Janitor thinks JD stuck in a door causing it to jam. The Janitor will go to strange lengths to torture JD. Actually kidnaping him in one episode (Left him in the water tower for the day.) The Janitor also sneaks into JD's apartment and messes with his stuff on one occasion he even moved JD and his bed to the Sacred Heart parking lot. This resulted with JD being woken up by an ambulance siren and he also found out he was naked. The Janitor has also got JD to the top of the flag pole telling him that he wont get him down until he has spent some time acting as a flag. In the commentary for Season 1 that if the show was not renewed for a second season then it would be reviled that the Janitor was just a figment of JD's imagination (The Janitor only interacted with JD in season 1.) Now at the end of season 8 when JD left the Hospital the Janitor actually seemed upset and waited for him to come back until Turk told him JD wasn't coming back. After hearing this news the Janitor dropped his mop and left the Hospital never being heard from again. Now JD and the Janitor have a lot more history but this is just the condensed version.


The Janitor and Dr. Cox have a very different relationship as it seems they are some what friends. They sometimes go out drinking and will also torment JD together (See the moving his bed above.) However The Janitor does not want to ruin his reputation with the cleaning staff by being seen hanging with a doctor at the hospital. The two of them seem to but heads with one another on several occasions. Neither one seems to fear the other but with the Janitor having his own army of custodial staff. The conflict between the two of them once ended with Dr. Cox being locked in a Morgue drawer. They have also competed over an empty hospital room that was designed for rich people. The two of them seem to be constantly against each other but still seem to get along.


The last main relationship is between the Janitor and Elliot which is kind of odd. The Janitor has a huge crush on Elliot and always has. He has even proposed to her but she didn't even realize it. He has often helped her out when she needs it. He has given her advice as well as help her boost her spirits. She considers him sweet which JD just hates. The Janitor even created an a capella singing group called Hibbleton just so she would not think he was weird showing up for coffee in a suit. The funny thing is despite having a huge crush on her The Janitor does not even know her name often calling her Blond Doctor.


The question everyone seems to ask is who is the Janitor what is his real name. after 8 seasons that answer has still never been given. In the episode "My Finale" JD asks him what his name is and Janitor says Glenn Matthews however two seconds later a orderly calls him Tommy making it seem like a lie. Now he has been called Tom before in the series but most fans believe his name to be Neil Flynn who is the actor who plays him. Since it shows the character in the Fugitive and Neil Flynn did have a part in that movie it would make sense that they share a name. However it has never been confirmed and I don't think we will ever know his real name.

Like Dr. Cox we have a couple of lists of likes dislikes and nicknames and alter

# Dr. Elliot Reid ("My Female Trouble")

# Rotinaj

# Glen Matthews (possibly his real name) ("My Finale")

So that is my thoughts on The Janitor. The man who is a mystery to all and maybe even to himself. His lies keep him hidden from reality and his thoughts are rather strange often wanting super powers are a son with gills. His life is strange and confused but I wouldn't want him any other way. He is one of my favorite characters from Scrubs as well as of all time. So the Janitor is awesome and if you haven't seen the show watch Scrubs can't say how much I love that show.
