Knowing

Written by UrbanVox 1 Comment

Here at the UrbanVox HQ we go through extensive amounts of films and TV series per week. Yes, we are addicts and as so we are always looking for the new releases and organizing our evening agendas according to new releases etc etc etc…

So, it was no surprise when I wanted to watch the movie from the first time I saw the trailer! but it kinda kept being pushed to the back of the queue in favour of our favourite TV series. :)

But then I saw @GeekMama‘s twit asking why Alien Angels need spaceships. That was enough to wake up my curiosity. :)

So that’s how The Knowing got jumped to the front of the line!

Please not that it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the current series of end of days sort of movies I’ve been watching lately. They were chosen at random and just ended up being one after the other…. heheheheh

So where do we start then… Let’s see… Ah yes… Before anything you have to know that I am a firm believer that we are not alone in this universe and if you stop to think about it every single sacred book we have available is some sort of proof of it.

It kinda makes sense doesn’t it? Imagine how the pre-Columbo civilization of the Americas felt about the wite faces when they first arrived to the new continet: They thought they were gods or even sent by them.

But now I think I’ve blabbed too much… hehehe… if you follow my twits you already know what I think of the movie. And the verdict is that I LOVED it!

:)

It had it’s slow moments and all but I suppose they had to have some introspection in a film that talks about the end of the world. The only thing missing was the cliche of the night-before- we- are- all- gonna- die- sex-scene but we don’t live in a perfect world… LOL

The Alien Agels have that City Of Angels sort of look… on a macabre sort ow way… the whisper people are CREEPY!!

I know Nickolas Cage is not the most loved interpreter in the world but If you haven’t seen it yet you should! It will keep you on your toes for a while. And the end might surpreend… and it will probably NOT be what you expected! I had 5 theories before the end of the movie…

One word… COOL! :)

OK… Now I am curious…

Do you believe in Armageddon or anything like that? What do you believe on?

Zya!

The end All over again :)

I am still about to figure out Hollywood’s fixation with trying to stop Armageddon! But I gotta give you that much: they sure are trying to find new ways… :)

This time we’re visiting The Devil’s Tomb!!

This time is up to a group of elite Soldiers of Fortune sent to rescue  an archeologist from an excavation… but things are not always what they seem.

I’ve picked the movie to watch after seeing Cuba Gooding Jr and Staphanie Jacobsen on the cast before I could watch the trailer (Was trying to keep myself busy while I waited for AD to arrive from her night out in town… 2am… and she had no idea how to get back home… weeeeeellll).

But believe me, if I had time to watch it I would have not tought twice… and as usual critics are wrong ont their evaluation… :)

OK… there are a few research mistakes on the script but if you let technicalities behind it is worth the watch!!!

” I am a new soldier in a Very old war!”

I can’t believe this film didn’t make to the cinema?!?! too cool for direct to DVD!

:P

Zya!

24 at 28kbps… LOL

Kids today should really be happy with how fortunate they are with their super fast broadband and mobile internet.

When I first started with my addiction to all things internet all I had was the good and old dial-up. OK, if you can consider good the awesome speed of 28kbps!! Hell my mobile does infinitely faster than that today! But hey…

Yes, I am that old! I am from the time where you would be considered cool for having a lycos, geocieties or angelfire HTML website. From the time that if you knew a few HTML codes you would be king of the chatroom and from the time when hacking other people’s computers “for fun” was not a crime. Me and my friends had a particular game almost every night (yup… we used to connect to the internet during the night and some times all night long because you would spend less pulses if you logged in after midnight) That game consisted in taking over each other’s computers and the last one still able to connect to the internet by the end of the night would win… And half the time we would do it via a DOS prompt (have you ever heard of Microsoft DOS??? LOL)

God I was such a nerd!

It is kinda funny to see how far we have come since then! Today my 5 year old son knows his way around the web… I first touched a computer that I could call my own when I was 14! I had somehow convinced my dad to get me one for my b’day. He was writing a book then… and my argument was that the computer would be so much more practical to do that horrible task that he used to do on his electric IBM type-writer. And I also convinced him somehow that the internet is the future of publishing (God I was so ahead of my time then… LOL)

Of course the fact that the first site the guy at the computer fair ever showed me was playboy.com had NOTHING to do with me being so eager to convince my dad… hehehehe… Don’t judge me!!! I was 14 years old!! Naked girls is the only thing in the minds of any dude that age! :P

I think that is why this video made me giggle so much… because I am old enough to get the joke… hehehe…

One thing is for sure… 24 WOULD NOT be a good series during the 90′s… that or would be a VERY slow paced one… like 24 days… LOL!

Hey… I had a pager like that one it was Awesome!!! :)

How about you? How long ago did you first plug yourself to the World Wide Web? Why? How old were you? What’s different today???

Zya!

Day Braking

Do you like vampire movies????

Then you are gonna LOVE that one! Imagine a world where most of the population are vampires and the ones hiding in the shadows (well… daylight) are the humans…

Edward Dalton is a researcher in the year 2019, in which an unknown plague has transformed the world’s population into vampires. As the human population nears extinction, vampires must capture and farm every remaining human, or find a blood substitute before time runs out. However, a covert group of vampires makes a remarkable discovery, one which has the power to save the human race.

IF the movie is anywhere nearly as cool as the trailer then the movie will be awesome and I SOOOO wanna watch it!!! :)

It kinda makes me think I am Legend… but WTH… That WAS an awesome book and well a good movie too so bring it on!!!! :)

Daybreakers is scheduled to be  released on 8 January 2010.

Damn… looong time to wait… :(

Will keep an eye for it tho! :)

zya!
