Last day of summer vacation and I find myself playing Goldeneye 007. That game is crazy bizarre. At any given moment, I'll have enough time to stand in front of a guard, aim at his head, and shoot him before he can even raise his gun all the way. Well, maybe that only happens sometimes, but the baddies also have incredibly bad aim. I'll take my time aiming at their heads, admist all the bullets flying past me. Perhaps it's because I only played in Agent and Secret Agent difficulty. I'm too much of a wuss to try 007 mode just yet.
As for the new school year, I'm a bit excited and a bit not. As if summer packets weren't enough, I have two tests on the first day of school. I think I'll be okay, though. When asked if I had gotten my school supplies, I really didn't know what to say. If, by school supplies, you mean the fundamental binder, binder paper, folder, pen, pencil, and calculator, then I say yes. But I've had those things all along. What compels people to go and buy new school supplies that they don't necessarily need? Sure if you run out of paper or lead, you'll need some more, but how is it that your paper conveniently runs out exactly at the end of the year? I remember thinking, Oh crazp, I've got a ton of paper left and the school year's ending. It just seems unlikely to me. I understand if your folder or binder is in bad condition, but really now. People just want to go and buy stuff that they don't need or already have. Just an opinion.
Freddy vs Jason. Place your bets!--yesterday. [the "place your bets" line was never in the movie and was probably shot only for use in previews] Surprisingly, I liked it more than The Medallion. The fact that I was right about two things in that movie may have something to do with it. One) Freddy is able to fight Jason [initially] because Jason goes to sleep [or unconsciousness via tranquilizer] and Freddy enters his dreams. Two) Jason "wins." Sorry if I spoiled this for you, but it's pretty obvious when you watch the movie that he just won't die! So take that, all you people who had your bets on Freddy! I say "wins" because neither really die. Freddy is pretty weak in the real world, but he's still back from the dead, meaning he's not a normal person. This obviously means that he cannot die by normal means such as the rippage-off of his arm or the stabbage of a machete. Jason's awkward and incredibly bad aim / Freddy's agile elusiveness helped to prolong the fight as well. I think I'd whoop both of they assets if I had the chance. Actually ... I'd end up dying in a horrific and bloody way. Speaking of bloody, the spurting of blood through the wounds was done pretty badly. Remember the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail? He got all his limbs cut off and blood squirted out as if from a water bottle. That's how all of the blood spurted out in the movie. I'd was both humored and disappointed by this aspect of the film. All in all, it was a typical horror movie. I didn't expect much more.
