Demolition has been going well. Here are pics 3 days in.

Went to see Step Brothers last night and it was definitely funny. Next movie of the summer...Mummy 3 of course. It shall be terrible and I'll enjoy every moment of it. It's not a crime to have vices as long as you admit to them. Unless your vice is killing babies or something, that's not cool.
Heading on vacation soon so post will be less but I plan on trying to upload more pictures of the condo from this afternoon hoping that the rest will be gone.

Comics
I have officially bought back every single comic I lost in the fire. The last and hardest to find: New X-men #40. Now comes the real task...Cataloging, organizing, and protecting every comic I own. At least 2000 of them. Anyone wanna help? E-mail me. :)

How many of you are out there?
I'm trying to get an idea of how many readers there are.
I'll check it next week and inform what readers I have on my decision.

Batman: Gotham Knights
In preparation for The Dark Knight I watched the Anime "vision" (and I use heavy quotes there) of Batman in the new DC Animated feature Batman: Gotham Knights. Since I'm lazy with all posts that I write, here is the quickest breakdown.
6 animated shorts by different anime directors each tell a different Batman story. Here is a review of each tale.
1) Interesting but mainly OK until the end when Batman just looks fat. Crappy rendition of the Dark Knight
2) Good. Not much more to say about that.
3) Gay. Batman looks very feminine and that's not a positive. The costume is also horrific. Makes Batman look like Birdman.
4) Totally twisted but awesome.
5) Bloody but boring. Not much action and the tale it tells doesn't really strike any interest.
6) Some really ridiculous action, it's short but pretty damn awesome. My personal favorite.
I should also add that Kevin Conroy did the voice of Batman which is always the right call since he is the best Batman in the history of moving pictures.

Wall-E, Hellboy 2, and The Dark Knight
Wall-E - awesome.
Hellboy 2 - better than the first and since I loved the first, awesome.
The Dark Knight - High Expectations.
Tim Burton's Batman - Not good enough.
Anime Batman - Low expectations. Watching it tonight. Doubt my distaste for modern anime will change.
Batman R.I.P. - Grant Morrison consistently gives me a headache.
Batman The Animated Series - Pure Genius.
I'm stopping now.

DVDs, Comics, and HD
I've been ever slowly buying back movies and tv shows I've lost. Most recently, Batman the animated series volumes 1 through 3 came in the mail. Batman the Animated Series is truly the only way children (or adults) should be introduced to the character. "The Batman" show that airs Saturday morning is mindless drivel with a message that says "your kid is to retarded for that old Batman, he's a stupid version". And don't get me started on their fushion of the Joker with the Creeper or the gay Riddler. (See Below)
I also now have recompleted my Angel & 24 series box sets.
As for comics, I upgraded my beginning collection of Starman by getting the new Omnibus collection (Volume 1) and it's genius. Robinson's Starman is an amazing series and I'm glad he's back writing comics.
Lastly...I GET USA HD FINALLY. Now we don't have to leave FiOS because I can finally watch RAW, Burn Notice, Monk, Psych, etc in HD! Woot! As an added bonus, we get SCIFI HD! I can watch the final half of the final season on BSG in wonderful, glorious high definition.
Expect a possible post Friday.

SPAIN WINS! & JAPW and a suprise...
Saturday I went to see Jersey All-Pro Wrestling! It was actually a lot of fun though it was also proof that the majority of Americans are overweight. We saw LAX, Christian Cage, and some regulars from JAPW. LAX was awesome and Cage is a cool guy. Photos on flickr.
SPAIN WON THE EURO 2008! I've never in my lifetime scene Spain win a major soccer event and the outplayed and outscored the Germans (who definitely stole the game from Portugal). I'm really excited! I also bought a David Villa jersey from eBay (via Thailand) the other day. Can't wait till it comes in.
I saw Wanted over the weekend, it's good. Liz told me she saw 1 negative review but some of the comments were uneducated so I ignored it. You may like it or you may not. So much is a matter of taste.
Lastly for the surprise...I FOUND THE TRANSFORMERS RADIO! Got it off eBay for 12 bucks. It's missing the back piece for the batteries but I'll accept that for what it represents. To the other guy who trying to sell it for $125...sod off. Heh, I said sod.

Been a while
What's happened since last time....hmmm.
Spain is in the Euro final. VIVA ESPANA!
Met up with a bunch of old Ambassadors from my NYU days which was a blast.
and....drum roll.....OLD NAVY HAS MY JEAN SIZE! HAPPY FRIGGIN DAYS!
That's it, I'll post my response on the Spain v Germany game but for now I need some sort of medication. Stuffy nose and watery eyes.

The estimates are in, they'll be demolishing our building this month. Goodbye home.
Comic Book Religions
I was thinking about putting a long post about my weekend but I'm tired. I did find this though:
Comic Book Religion
It has a list of virtually every single comic book character and their religious views. Did you know Batman is a lapsed Catholic? Find your favorite obscure hero's religion here.
I'm uploading photos from the weekend, not many though.
If I find inspiration for a new post I'll put it up.

Primaries = Many Phone Calls
I'm just going to express my hatred for politics. Today's reason, those damn automatize phone calls they send out. I was home yesterday and I kid you not, they called 6 times for 6 different candidates. If I was voting in Union County I would've purposefully not voted for them solely because they used those automatize messages. I loathe them...LOATHE. Where do these people get the balls to assume I want to be interrupted to listen to a damn commercial. Does anyone actually listen through them to begin with? Can they really be considered effective? Doubtful.
In other news, I got Lego Indiana Jones for Xbox and we booked a DJ for the wedding.
I also now officially like playing firstbase in softball.

KEEP A LOOK OUT
So I'm trying to find a 1984 Optimus Prime AM Radio. I had one and it went up in flames during the fire. Completely melted. I had it since I was a young kid and I'm trying to buy it back. Unfortunately it costs 125 bucks on ebay! Below is the link. If anyone happens to come across it in a rummage sale or something (for cheap) pick it up and I'll pay ya back. Thanks!
