Got my sex box baby

So, seeing as its the year 2006, I'm really excited about playing cy's Xbox 360 that he finally grew out of. In a week or so, the new dead space game is coming out, and I'm hoping you will join me on my inaugural campaign through the scary war against the necromorphs. After hearing you tell me about the first game, I tried to play through dead space 2. That was by far the scariest fucking game I've ever played. I made it halfway through before having to quit due to excessive nightmares. Now #3 is coming out and has co op. Will you embark on this journey with me BG? I'm not sure I can face those monsters all by my lonesome. Plus we're almost at the age of outgrowing this shit.

Sequels planned for 2013

Just saw the Hobbit - a lot of fun, a beautiful world, kind of meaningless/pointless, but an incredible ride. The best kind of popcorn movie. It felt like I was back with an old friend; I almost wanted to watch Lord of the Rings again.

Also, the dwarves are great singers. I hope we get a few more campfire scenes in the next one.

With that, I present my list of sequels/reboots/re-releases for the year 2013.

What amazes me about this list is two things.
1.) 42 Movies! Almost double 2012's list!
2.) There are actually a lot of movies next year that look great. Seth Rogen writing and directing a movie seems cool, and all the original sci-fi movies coming out is very exciting. If anything, those are the kinds of movies that we should be focusing on now; CGI is at a point where you can have anything you want on the screen.

Of all these listed, I probably only care for about 5. The rest seem like really bad ideas - RED 2? Top Gun 3d?!

I think we just have to realize that there aren't a lot of ideas for movies left. And there is an incredible demand for movies. We probably should just make one.

I think I'll do a 2012 write-up soon. I'm amazed how many bad movies I didn't see this year. It's like I'm growing up a little bit.

Also, Ted made half a billion dollars.
