The Town of Odyssey

Falling Up's two new albums.

I saw it in the Czech Republic in a '4DX' theater. The seats moved around and there was air blowing and stuff. It was funny.

I thought the movie was ok.

Me and a friend just went to a pretty epic concert. It was so intense. A little mosh pit started up and my friend pushed me in.

I have had a similar indifference towards this type of movie in the past, but my indifference has grown with every new mediocre, generic superhero movie, and is now practically a hate. TRY SOMETHING THE SLIGHTEST BIT CREATIVE.

I bought a book called The Yellow Birds by Kevin Powers. Then I read it. It was really good.

I also bought some music on iTunes, including the most recent albums by the Local Natives and Grizzly Bear. Both fantastic.

I didn't say anyone has to like anything, I was just making a silly joke

I really really hope this is good. Because there's like one movie a year that I get excited about and this is it.

Has anyone here watched "The Desolation of Smaug" trailer yet? ;) I thought of posting it here with some snarky comment like "lol this is gonna suck", but then thought better of it. :P Well, it did...so you wouldn't have been inaccurate or anything like that :p I think he was re...

Even though I don't read nearly as much as I should, I love this thread. We need more rics in the world, defending cultural and artistic integrity to the bitter end. \:D/ Indeed we do, although I certainly wouldn't put forth myself as the ideal. :p Ugh, Depression Era fiction is depressing. That mu...

Woah I did not know of this! This is pretty awesome. Doubt it will last long, but still, ultimate is an awesome sport.

None of the teams are anywhere near me, but maybe I'll watch a few games.

I was almost inspired to write an essay about it being a relevant critique of corporate power in America and an exposition of terrorism, do it It was pretty good. The villain was underdeveloped and pretty darn cliche in general (then again, this is a superhero movie) but obviously Tony was the focu...

Taheu Nadryvy, Taheu! by Serious Beak, from the album Huxwhukw. lolz. good music though.

Linguistically, for something to truly be an allegory every part of it must directly relate to a part of whatever it is an allegory for. I wasn't aware this was the definition for an allegory...well, whatever. Back on topic, somewhat: I'm currently reading The Giver, and it's reminding me of why I ...

If the writer didn't intend for it to be an allegory, it's not an allegory. Just because the events in LotR are comparable to real events--and I have no idea if they are because I couldn't get past The Two Towers --does not mean that LotR is an allegory. "Allegory: A story, poem, or picture th...

lol dude, Lord of the Rings definitely is an allegory. I suppose the books could be seen as somewhat boring though...

But my classes are in Costa Rica, so it's okay.

Dude, really? Where?

I was just in San Jose at the YWAM base. Pretty awesome.

Oblivion The music was quite good though, I thought. The retro drums made me smile. \:D/ M38's score for Oblivion was absolutely fantastic \:D/ Surprisingly so, actually. I hope that they are given a little bit more recognition in the film score industry due to their work on Oblivion's score. Eh, I...

Oblivion

It was ok. It was basically Moon with more gadgets and people, and I guessed the 'plot twist' right away, but it was somewhat entertaining. The music was quite good though, I thought. The retro drums made me smile.
