Reality Is An Illusion

Reality is an illusion. The universe is a hologram. Buy gold. Bye! - Bill Cipher, Gravity Falls Ah what an interesting thought process Bill has. Sure he was evil as all get out, I mean who wouldn’t be after all he is a triangle. No, not the triangle from the song, however he might be? I’m not sure where the shoe runners got the inspiration for Bill Cipher to be honest. He’s pure evil, that’s for sure. But it does bring about a question. What if this life is an illusion? We can’t say for sure it’s not. We live day in and day out wondering if life will be what it is meant to be, or how it’s meant to be processed. Maybe this life isn’t more than it’s cracked up to be. It could be whatever it wants to be and we are left here picking up the pieces wondering if there’s something more to behold from it all. I’m not sure. It would be nice to be able to figure out what this life has in store for us. I mean, come on. There has to be something this life is good at, right? I sure as hell ho...

iTunes - Star Trek: DS9 Season 2

I noticed this evening that iTunes has the second season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. If I remember correctly, it only costs like $13.99 or something crazy low like that... while the first season still costs around $40. Rather interesting if you ask me. I am puzzled by the fact that a) it's that low, and b) why hasn't iTunes put the other series second seasons on there yet. They don't even have TNG on there yet. Crazy I tell ya... just crazy. You would think they would have put TNG on there right away... I suppose I'll still sit here waiting for more seasons of Enterprise. In the end I'll probably just buy them all on DVD.

Star Trek

So I bought Star Trek from Wal-Mart the other day. Downloaded the video thru iTunes from the second dvd. Makes it easier to watch on my computer... don't have to take the dvd with me anytime I want to watch a the movie when I'm out and about.. well with my laptop. heh I think I'll load it on my iPod as well. Anywho, I've watched it twice now since grabbing it off the shelf. Such a freakin' good movie! I LOVE it! Before this movie came to theaters, I made sure not to read anything regarding it online. I'm usually eager to read about a new movie coming out etc. Not on this one, I didn't want to endanger anything by learning stuff before watching it for the first time. Didn't want to have ideas about the movie before going into it. I was wise in doing so. By watching it fresh, I was able to just sit back and enjoy it. Such a good freakin' movie. Chris Pine does a wonderful job as Kirk... hell they all do great jobs at becoming the characters that we kn...

SG:U - Life

Watched the episode "Life" last night on SG:U... um yeah. Sounds like the drama is going to kick in... soap opera Stargate is what they should have called it. So, one of the gals is a lesbian... wtf is that all about? Nice to see the rest of the crew having sex with each other and all of that. Sheesh. Not sure I'm liking this series... much at all now. When are they going to run into some actual aliens... and get down to some serious stuff? Sure they found a chair room and all of that... um, who cares?

SG:U Time

Last episode of SG:U was a typical timetravel episode... we've seen this before, nothing new. Hit a planet, find a device that has important data to your survival... and it keeps looping until the timeline's corrected. Yup, seen it... been there... bought the tee-shirt. Talk about yawn. Next!

SG:U - Earth

Watched the latest episode of Stargate Universe last night titled "Earth". Jist was the govt took control of the ship via the stones in order to get them back home. The kid, as I call him, was pretty tolerable in this episode. His new assignment is to watch Dr. Rush, find out if he's hiding something. The future of the series should be interesting to say the least. Loved the episode, just loved the tension between the characters and the grrr people that popped in to take over. Classic episode, just classic. Interesting how the first thing they did was haul that one guy off to a cell, the bastards. But whatever, it's all good in the end. They got the ship back and from the looks of things... they might be able to attempt the whole flying into the sun thing again to get home? Interesting thought... interesting thought indeed. As usual, I don't give episodes ratings... that's up for you to decide. I just have my opinions. Can't wait till next week.

SyFy - BSG: The Plan & Caprica

I recently bought "Caprica" and "The Plan". What I saw was rather upsetting. In both direct to dvd "movies", they had nudity. I don't understand why they did this... it did nothing to the story line in either video. Shame SyFy, same on you for doing this. Personally I should have either read up on them more and/or waited for the televised version to come out next year.

SG:U - Light

Catching up on SG:U. Watching the episode titled "Light". So the just is, the Destiny is heading towards a star... you know like a sun? Yeah that thing. They hold a loto to see who gets to go on the shuttle and who has to die. It was nice they got to see what Destiny looks like finally. We the viewer got to see it, but the characters haven't. So that was sweet. I'm rather enjoying Eli making a documentary on the whole thing, which turned into letters to home. Interesting how they took the spin on how people react when they know they're about to die. Very interesting indeed. So apparently Destiny had the power it needed. It flew into the star on purpose to regenerate itself. Such an interesting concept! Makes sense, I mean you have a ship that goes from system to system doing the gate thing... it has to have power right? Yes, very interesting indeed.
