Review Busters

Ghostbusters! 

Yes. I saw this a few hours ago with my beautiful bae (I am a little sorry) Malene and TLDR: I loved it! She loved it too.

If we are comparing it to the old one, I actually think they come quite similarly out result-wise.
I didn't focus on it being a "OH MY GAWD THEY MADE AN ALL-GIRLS GROUP, THE SACRILEGE!!! THE SACRILEGE!!! DAMN SJW AND FEMINAZIS!!" at all, even though women are like the plague: better left exterminated. No but honestly, all I saw this as was a remake. Or a retake, really, as the story isn't really the same. They just happen to be women (and awesome ones at that.) All I could think of was the funny characters, the amazing AMAZING Holtzmann -a true favourite- and of course the story. But I'd really like to really rub in that the characters were amazing. Because they were really well written.
It was kind of like the old one, but with a little more spice and a butt load cooler special effects. It wasn't like all the other stereotypical comedy films made these days, it was actually good. I got some good laughs from it! Which is great when you are watching a comedy, honestly. 
Just a personal opinion, but there it is.

I am going to summarise now, so spoilers!
I genuinely recommend watching it, so if you wanna see it, don't read below (heh... Heheheh...  B-low... Blow...) this! 

It starts off in a house and a group taking a guided tour, a ghost pops up when the tour guide closes the house-thing up, he shits himself and then it shifts to Erin Gilbert (in the image she is the one with the fringe). Erin Gilbert is trying to suck up to Tywinn Lannister by destroying a book she wrote by hunting (or haunting, HAHAHAHA!!!!!) down an old friend, or ex friend. Not entirely sure about that. They fell out at some point, for some reason. They should probably have clarified that a little better. Unless it was and I just forgot because that was not the greatest part of the film. 
Anyway, she found her. Her friend turns out to be Sookie (However in this film she changed her name to Abby Yates. You don't fool me, though, Sookie. You are totally on my radar, girl!) Sookie is seen selling the book, because... Wait, she co-wrote the book. I should probably have mentioned that before. 
Erin Gilbert wants Sookie to stop selling the book but Sookie is not looking favourably upon the idea as it is a source of income. But then... 
Oh shit, I forgot to tell you that Erin Gilbert was approached by a dude that owned the haunted house and was approached by said dude because he found their book online.
So she tells Sookie this and while she does they introduce this weird and THE MOST AWESOME PERSON EVER, Jillian Holtzmann. 
They start bullying Erin Gilbert and then she blurts out that the haunted house is haunted and the two get excited and go there. Short story short, they see a ghost. And they freak out. A joyous freakout. Erin Gilbert gets fired because of a film that Sookie puts on YouTube. End of that shit is they all get fired and starts the Ghostbusters. The fourth member, Patty Tolan, is introduced when a creepy dude goes onto the subway tracks and unleashes a ghost, awesome lady runs off to the Ghostbusters and... Yeah, they meet and all that. Love at first sight and that.

This is getting too detailed. I'm going to continue with bullet points.
  • They get Thor to be their receptionist
  • Ghostbusters gets the subway ghost, but a train smashes into it and sorts their problem out. ...-ish.
  • The haunted house is never mentioned again
  • Holtz (That is Jillian Holtzmann's nickname, by the way. Holtz.) is making loads of cool shit
  • Trying-out-the-shooters-montage
  • Trapping a demon-ghost at a metal concert for maximum cred
  • Got hailed heroes
  • Getting denied by the mayor and branded frauds (sensing a could-be Judas theme here)
  • Err, well now my memory is getting a little fuzzy, but I am pretty sure there was an epiphany of sorts in there
  • OH YES! Something about ley lines
  • Wait no, they are discovering the badguy before that
  • THEN the ley lines.
  • Oh so then they find the badguy and he kills himself. Bit of a let down you say? Yes. Yes a bit. But then:
  • They realise this was a part of his plan after seeing his book (which was, surprise surprise, the book they wrote together, and he, THE HERETIC HAD SCRIBBLED IN IT!!! SCRIBBLED!!! THAT IS LIKE WAY, WAY WORSE THAN DOG EARS!! PEOPLE SHOULD BE EUTHANIZED FOR DOING THAT!!! DOG EARS, I MEAN! SO THERE IS LIKE A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL OF DEATH AND DECAY FOR PEOPLE WHO SCRIBBLE!!!)
  • Then Badguy takes over Sookie's body and she tries to kill Holtz and Patty Tolan
  • Patty awesome-punches Badguy out of Sookie (giggity)
  • Badguy takes over Thor
  • Thor goes back to Lair of Doom and releases Deadies
  • Awesome engineering lady of extreme coolness makes more stuff they need to try out, another montage-ish-thing. Meanwhile the deadies take over New York while the Ghostbusters are busy not doing their job
  • Then they get their arses in gear and a badass fight of doom happens
  • Then I feel something else happened but it's been, like 8 hours since I saw it.
  • The not-Stay-Puft-marshmallow-man but rather the Ghostbuster's logo comes to life and wrecks New York
  • They manage to set off a nuclear bomb inside the Apocalypse machine mr Badguy made which made it into a ghost vacuum cleaner
  • Sookie gets grabbed by Not-Stay-Puft and gets sucked into the portal to Deadville
  • Erin Gilbert runs in after her
  • They come back out
  • They get white hair
  • Everyone laughs
  • Happy ending. (Not that kind of a happy ending, though, you filthy piglet.)
Seriously amazing film. OH MY GOD, I FORGOT THE BIT WHERE THEY WERE BASICALLY DRYHUMPED BY THE ACTUAL STAY PUFT MARSHMALLOW MAN! That was a good bit. That was before the "Badass fight of doom". And maybe, just maybe I made up the humping bit. You will have to watch the film to find out.
I should be paid for that teaser-hook-whatever-thing there. They owe me. I bet people are running to the cinema in hordes to find out if it humps them or not.

Malene gave it a 9/10 because of some montage before the Big fight of doom! I would give it 9/10 too. Even though it was really really awesome, it wasn't perfect. But it really is a really good film.
Go watch it! Go! Go! Go go go go go!

MOOSEMOUNT!!

I FINALLY GOT IT!! AFTER ... Ok, yeah, not too much of spamming groups and trade, honestly, it was just a few hours of waiting really. Got to look for the blasted Voidtalon portal whilst waiting as well, so wasn't too bad.
I digressed a little.
I GOT IT! I GOT THE MOOSEMOUNT!!! THE AMAZINGNESS THAT IS A ...Moose. Obviously. It glows!
The moose. It is simply that badass.
Man, if real life achievements were as easy as game-achievements, I'd totally have maybe one or two!! :P

Shadow hunter Moj'jar is posing with the statue of the awesome achievement I got for basically nothing! I am chuffed to no end, and Moj'jar is guarding it a little too eagerly, if you ask me. I caught him polishing Gul'dan the other day. Polishing. It was weird. Though I am not going to judge what an NPC does with his day. Especiallt Moj'jar. The little lump.
Bless 'im.
Anyway, I really just wanted to brag. Because of the narcissism and all that. All in good fun.
MOOSEMOUNT!! <3

Minecraft Library

I've been working on a library for a time now, and I really wanna show off. Because that's my jam. Not literally. I don't have my own jam. I would love to have my own jam, though. It would be a mix between blueberries and raspberries. Because those are my favourites. Yum.

Maybe a little bit of mango. Although that would probably taste like ass.
Full disclosure, though, I don't actually know what ass taste like.

Mango is extremely nice. Like. It fits into everything. Salads... Smoothies... Probably tacos. Let's be honest, mango is like the best thing. Except blueberries. Because blueberries are even more amazing. Though a little less versatile.
Slightly less.
Marginally less.

Only marginally.

I went off on a little tangent there.
I did this legit. Except the roof. I couldn't be arsed falling off that roof over and over. So I cheated. Not that I needed to, but because I really wanted to.
Oh yeah, and the floor. Because clay is like seriously endangered in this world. So naturally I have cheated most of the brick roads as well. I like my things looking nice.
Well, semi-nice. In my opinion, anyway.

Right. I tried making the roof once, but it looked absolutely all too flat, so I had to redo it. Now it looks... I don't know, maybe a little better, but I think it looks a little oversized now. I really cannot be bothered to fix it now, though. I finally finished!

I spent very long on the dimensions on this. Had to build and rebuild a lot, which was a lot of work seeing as I did most of it legitimately. A lot of jumping around like a madman. I need a break after this. Though it does feel like a million times more rewarding to do it semi-legitimately.

I watched the entirety of Cuckoo (which is amazing. Everyone should watch it because AMAZING) as well as some of Scream whilst finishing this monster.

Library of death and decay, like in Doctor Who! Only Minecraft won't allow us to spawn a million Vashta Nerada to casually murder anyone who walk into it.

Hey, that would be amazing for servers with many players. It would keep people from griefing or stealing.Well I suppose griefing only would make the monster spread... Or would it? I'm not sure any more. I should probably Google it.

Apparently the Vashta Nerada are "even on Earth" in the Doctor Who universe. Awesome. "Though swarms were not usually that aggressive." Which is cool. So that means I need to cut down a forest where they "dwell" to piss them off royally and make books of their trees.

Sorted.

I mean all of this is strictly hypothetical, of course. I wouldn't want harm on anyone... At all... No. Of course not...

Anyway, after a lot of faffing and doing and redoing I finally ended up with a semi-finished looking library.
I wish it looked a little more "WOAH! GIANT ASS LIBRARY!!" rather than "OH LOOK, OUR LOCAL LIBRARY!!" but all in all I am happy with the result.

When I grow up, I want a library.
So actually, when I grow up, I want to be absolutely reeking with money. Stinking rich. Filthy rich. All sorts of unhygienic-ness related to rich-ness.
That's me. Or that's what I'd like to be. That rich.

Holy shit, is that why they call it so many dirt related things? Because rich people are actually really unhygienic? Did I just uncover this giant illuminati-theory on rich people? I am sure I did. Positive, in fact.

So if people start rubbing themselves with anchovies, garlic and cheesy puffs they magically start making a lot more money?
I think that sounds like a fool-proof plan to winning life.
Someone should test it and get back to me on this.

Right I think maybe too many tangents have been drawn... Can you say that? Anyway, it's time to say goodnight, cheerio and auf wiedersehen! Pip pip!

Birthday Blues

Definitely haven't got any of those around here, that's for pretty damn sure!
Having your birthday in a kindergarten is like being worshipped for a day. It was insane. I have the best colleagues! :) I'm not saying being worshipped is bad, nono. Everyone should worship me.
I am your God.
Worship me!

Anyway, I wanted to show my amazing kindergarten spoils, because they were amazing.


Right, not only was the first thing I saw when I got there today balloons and the amazing crown of amazingness, but I also got cake and a present! I did not expect that! They are so lovely!

Apparently my nerd has been showing, so I was given a Star Wars glass X) Which is amazing. Plus a lip balm and a facemask! I can't wait to treat MA FACE!
Literally.
Because it is a face... Mask...
Hey, man, Sahara sure is dry this time of the year..!

It was wrapped in the shape of a house, which is amazing. They are such creative bunnies!
And the cake! Holy shit the cake was good! I had to physically restrain myself from eating the whole fucking thing by myself! Like, genuinely. So fucking good.

AND LOOK AT THIS!! THAT CROWN! Haha!
This fucking crown!
I've got the important details on it as well.
Kaptein Sabeltann and Kardemommeby!
Hell yes!

They know me so well <3

When I got home I was given a surprise as well. Been properly spoiled today, I have! I have amazing friends.
Erika was only cooking me dinner WITH desert! The lovely little shit! I do love that crazy person! Was tasty as all buggering hells as well!

Plus a fourleaf clover for luck! Which one can always appreciate! I mean turning down luck is just a little silly to be honest."Oh yeah, no I'd absolutely love a million years of bad luck, me! I am festooned with ill fortune! Brilliant!" No! Nobody in their right minds would do that!
Heh... Festooned...
Lovely thought passing it on, though!

Maren and her had gotten kit-cat a present too! Which is amazing! Cat is naturally sceptical at the moment, but I think it definitely will be a winner in the future! It is brilliant!


I have some wonderful people in my life! I mean that is apparent in every-day situations as well, but, you know.
Lovely people.

Love and love and love!

Chez Maria. (aka, Maria's crib)

Woah woah woah! Welcome to my crib, cuz! Aaaa-yeah!
Today we have a... Nah I can't be arsed on taking that "crib joke any further". It's a little exhausting.

Anyway, let us begin. ALLEZ!
MY ROOM! I am well happy with my little cave. My "woman cave", as I'd like to call it. Because I am classy like that. My Classy Hole, if it were. Because it is so tiny.
Tiny, tiny class-hole. Like in WoW! They will be getting class holes. Not like mine, but not TOTALLY unlike mine.





















So I just set up that black plank-shelf-fuck on the wall the other day (thank you Erika!) and it's totally crooked and if anyone has any tips as to how to make it less crooked, please tell me. I need the answer to that life-riddle! Such riddle, much amaze. Anyway, that was my hole. My hole is a little messy, but that's OK. It's only on the internet.




Outside is the kitchen and dining room. Easy access, you know. With the night-feasts. If you know what's good for you, night-feasts are definitely it. Feasting upon unhealthy (or healthy, depending on what kind of freak it is) food at ungodly hours of the night? Best thing ever.
Speaking of... I think I need a snack. Nay, a feast. A feast for the soul.

Or maybe not. Making food is a chore. I want a personal chef. I am petitioning for a personal chef. That wants to cook for me for free. I wish slavery was allowed.... (NB: I DO NOT ACTUALLY WISH SLAVERY WAS REAL.)



















Ah, the Throne Room. Or Throne Rooms as it is in this case. THAT'S RIGHT! We've got two crapperoonies! It is amazing. You can have a marathon shit! Room-to-room shitting! We always have at least 3 rolls ready in case there is such an event. Or an emergency. Prepare for everything, as they say. I take this very seriously. Especially when it comes to toilets. You never know when the gates of Hell open their gates! I am in such a classy mood tonight.
Then there is the Halls of Reflection. Where you can go and reflect upon your person. Or your... No I can't even make up (heh, unintentional pun. Ish. I mean you have to use... mirrors... Nevermind.) bad mirror jokes. It's getting late and there are a lot of pictures to go. I need to save up my wit and amazingness for the rest of the shizzwazz.
Living room is where all the Boobarella-watching is happening. All the Boobarella action. Now, please let me direct your attention to the lamp.
Please observe the lamp.

The lamp is observable. 

Guess who made that shit happen!

OH YES, YOURS TRULY!
I did that. I couldn't keep it in any more. I had to spoil it.
Me.
Maria. 

The beast!

I am the handiest person everyone knows.

Right. That was my crib. It's starting to feel like home now as well, which is nice. I forgot about the two terraces, but they aren't all that interesting at the moment. One holds our laundry and the other a lot of sofa cushions. Because we can't be arsed buying outside furniture. But it's OK, because they are really comfortable.
Anyway, it's getting rather lengthy now, so I will END TIME ITSELF! You know how it is.
