The Ultimate Versus
Holy shit. Where the hell have i been? I knew that he was working on this but i didn’t expect it to be all done! I thought he’d be too busy making the new Godzilla movie.
I’m talking of course about the new extended cut of Versus: The Ultimate Versus.
It’s fucking 50+ bucks if you get the legit region 2 DVD. But only 20 bucks for the bootleg off of eBay.
Strangely enough the bootleg cover looks a little cooler than the legit silver one. But that’s probably because i like purple. It’s my favorite color ya know. Did you know that purple is the gay pride color? Yeah, that’s pretty fucking gay.
So what’s new this time around? They went in and reshot a couple of the scenes (4 years after the movie’s original release!) and the movie is now 10 minutes longer with extended fight scenes, new music and the newly shot scenes edited in and old scenes remixed.
The bonus disc includes over two and a half hours of extras, including never-before-seen footage (21 mins.), deleted scenes, a previously unpublished making-of featurette (10 mins., shown previously only at the preview right after completion, “Behind Versus Part 1: The Birth of the Darkhero (27 mins.),” new making-of featurette “Behind Versus Part 2 – Versus the Legend (46 mins.),” “Nervous 1 (7 mins.),” “Nervous 2 (16 mis.),” “The Making of Nervous 2 (1 min.),” Trailers, and much more!
My vagina is officially wet!

Movies and stuff
I’m gonna talk about some movies but i’m gonna intentionally leave out specific plot details so you can go into them fresh if you do decide to ever check them out. If you hadn’t already.
So i finally got my goddamn Before Sunrise DVD in the mail. Considering that i used the Buy It Now option on eBay on fucking July 2nd and having it arrive only yesterday, that’s a pretty fucking long time. It usually doesn’t take that long for crap to get shipped. Good thing i’m too big of a pussy to leave negative feedback.
It’s been a while since i last saw Before Sunrise. I actually have it on Laserdisc and i was planning to watch it when i was back home last year but apparently the Laserdisc player was on the fritz.
I was actually hoping to get the DVD sooner so i could watch it and then head out to the theater and catch the sequel, Before Sunset, but it’s too fucking late now because it’s not showing anymore! Stupid late DVD. Oh well. Guess i’ll just have to wait for the sequel’s DVD release. Hopefully it’ll have some extras this time. Before Sunrise only has a trailer and that’s it. Gay.
I won’t bother telling you what both movies are about. Besides, they’re both 110% dialogue driven and chick flicks anyway. So most of you macho men out there probably won’t give a fuck but hey, if you’re like me and if you give these flicks a chance, you’ll probably like them. I’ll tell you this, if you liked Waking Life, you’ll like Before Sunrise/Sunset.
Actually if you like any of Richard Linklater’s films (Slackers, Dazed and Confused, Before Sunrise, Waking Life, School Of Rock, Before Sunset), you owe it to yourself to check them out anyway.
Also try to keep a lookout for Love Object on DVD. I picked up this little gem a coupla days ago at Best Buy on impulse and i’m pretty glad that i did.
Basically:
May + American Psycho + realdoll.com = Love Object
It’s one of those quirky little disturbing horror flicks that i like so much. Very much in the vein of May. If you’re interested, stay away from any reviews or anything. It’s best to go in clean.
I probably won’t convince any of you fuckers to watch Before Sunrise but hey, if anything, just check out Love Object. It’s not as good as May but it’s good enough. Here’s a coupla quotes off the DVD cover:
“A great little thriller with some genuinely creepy moments” – Eric Campos, Film Threat
“…exacting and intense… (an) uncompromising psychological chiller” – Michael Gingold, Fangoria Magazine
“…spooky and deadpan suspense…” – Elvis Mitchell, The New York Times
“…(A) mordantly witty horror film…” – Amy Taubin, Film Comment
Besides, it’s got Melissa Sagemiller in it (she’s pretty cute) and Desmond Harrington too (i’d hit it). I thought he was pretty good in Wrong Turn.
I’m actually listening to the directors commentary track fro Love Object right now and it’s funny because i was just thinking about mentioning Audition in this post (a most excellent Japanese horror movie) and literally two minutes later, i hear the director talking about Audition. Makes me like Love Obejct even more!
And if you still haven’t seen Audition yet (i’ve been plugging this damn movie for 2 years now), you really should. Fuck Ringu and Ju-On. Audition is from the guy who made fucking Ichi The Killer. And unlike Ichi The Killer, Audition is actually a good movie storywise and all around.
I also got my copy of Darkman on DVD a coupla days ago. I was talking to Bubba once and i wanted to slap him because he said Darkman sucked. IT DOES NOT YOU FAGGOT. Then again he did say he was just a little boy when he first saw that movie. He’s still a faggot though. How can anybody not like Darkman? Without Darkman, there would not a Spider-Man. At least not the Sam Raimi Spider-Man that we know and love. And i wouldn’t have it any other way.
If you liked Army of Darkness, you have to like Darkman. Hell, if you love any Sam Raimi movie, you have to love ALL of them. Yes, even For Love Of The Game.
Speaking of all his movies, ever notice that yellow car in the Evil Dead movies? That’s ‘The Classic’. And Oldsmobile Delta Royale. It’s Sam Raimi’s baby. And it’s in practically ALL of his movies.
I actually didn’t remember it being in Darkman but after watching it again, i realized that it actually IS in the movie. But only for a split second.
I love looking out for that car. Seriously, i had the stupidest grin ever when i saw that car pop up in Spider-Man two years ago.
Ah. The Classic.
- 1982 – Evil Dead: The car Ash drives to the cabin in
- 1985 – Crimewave: Getaway car
- 1987 – Evil Dead 2: Ash’s car again
- 1990 – Darkman: Crashed into by Liam Neeson in a fall
- 1993 – Army Of Darkness: Ash’s car again(Okay. You’d THINK that the car couldn’t possibly be in The Quick And The Dead right? Because it’s a western for God’s sake. But hey…)
- 1995 – The Quick And The Dead: hidden under some hay in the barn. Really. I swear.
- 1998 – A Simple Plan: Parked outside the feed store
- 1999 – For Love Of The Game: Scene was cut out during editing.
- 2000 – The Gift: Kate Blanchett’s car
- 2002 – Spider-Man: Uncle Ben’s car.
- 2004 – Spider-Man 2: Uncle Ben’s car.
And just like Bruce Campbell, that car has also made cameo appearances in several Coen brothers movies (Bruce, Sam and the Coen’s have worked together on each other’s movies in the past).
Keep a look out for the classic in Blood Simple, Fargo, Raising Arizona, and The Big Lebowski.
Funnily enough, Bruce actually hates that car and he’s always trying to destroy the damn thing.
“Sam has money so he has four of them, just in case I destroy the other three. Right now, he keeps sending duplicates around town thinking I’ll destroy them and leave his alone.” – Bruce Campbell
“When asked where the Classic is now, Sam cagily responded, “In a warehouse somewhere in Southern California.” He knew if I ever found out, an army of mechanics would be dispatched to destroy it.” – Bruce Campbell, ‘If Chins Could Kill’
Some Kiki pics
Some old hi res Spider-Man 2 Kiki pics.
Take a close look at her scalp in pic 3. Notice anything?
Told you it was real
FOX TV
How is it that shit like Method And Red can manage to stay on the air while good shows like Wonderfalls gets cancelled? TV pisses me off sometimes.
Wonderfalls > Quintuplets, Method and Red, The Jury, North Shore.
On that note, i really miss watching Caroline Dhavernas on Wonderfalls. Those were the best 4 Fridays of last season.
I am at a loss for words
Voicemail
Yup. I set up another one of those voicemail thingies over at ureach.com. It’ll only be up for 7 days though (it’s a 7 day free trial thing) so get your messages in while you can.
As always, i’ll be posting up the best messages on the site so try to at least be somewhat entertaining. And make sure you speak loud and clearly! Let’s see what you all can come up with.
Update:
Bad news?
Not sure if everybody knows but there’s a current RIAA-ish crackdown on hi res images on the net right now. So hi res pics might probably be a little harder to come by.
See, one of the best sources for hi res pics (dainews.nu) was hit with a copyright infringement notice from lawyers.
Apparently this all started when some eBay user was selling some Jessica Alba photos with the Dai watermark removed in an auction. A member on Dai’s site decided to bid on a pic and then back out at the last minute – questioning the legitimacy of the work. Whoever the seller was is also a member at Dai’s site because the guy that bid on the pic outed the seller in an e-mail by their screen name. The seller then had all his auctions terminated when the good samaritan reported him. The seller then reported Dainews to the company that legally owns these hi res pic so as to kill source material from getting on Dainews.
It was MediaVast that issued out the cease and desist letter. Mediavast is also affiliated with WireImage, FilmMagic, Contour Photos and WireImageSTOCK. All sources of hi res pictures on the net.
MediaVast is also slowly going after other sites that are distributing these hi res pics. See, they don’t want people sharing these hi res pics anymore. At least not for free. And definitely not for a price on any other site besides their own.
WireImage, for example, charges something like $79.95/month for access to their entire archive of pics. By having other people share those hi res pics outside of their site, they’re pretty much losing money that way.
Take a look at the message Desperado put on his site:
“As of today, this site will no longer offer HQ type pictures. There are too many potential problems going on these days, and we do not need them. This site is free; let’s keep it that way. From this point on only caps, collages, scans, etc. will fill these pages.
Remember, unless it is a vidcap or some other non HQ image, it will no longer appear on this site.”
So what does this all mean? Well, as you all probably know, i LOVE posting hi res pics on fubar. I don’t know if i’ll still be posting them up as much, seeing as to how they *might* be harder to find, but i also wouldn’t want any trouble from lawyers and crap. Not that they would ever come for me but hey, you never know.
Anyhow, it’s still too early to tell what’s gonna happen. Maybe things’ll change, maybe they won’t. We’ll just have to see. After all, people are still sharing MP3’s like crazy aren’t they?
Hi Res Avril Lavigne
I didn’t think much of the first pic from what i saw. Until i scrolled down a bit. And then my exact words were:
“OH MY GOD”
I love it when girls grab their boobs.
