Derek (2012)
Derek
This is Ricky Gervais at his most mature. A more developed writer/director with a more passionate story to tell. He's woven together a community of in-depth characters, each with their own stand-alone charisma. It's early on in the show, but it has major potential to be as good, if not better than Extras and maybe even The Office.
What makes Derek so appealing? It's heartfelt, lovely, and each character is their own show. Gervais -- unlike his previous work -- has guided Derek into a show that's as funny as it is compassionate.
For this I give it 10/10.
Metal Gear Solid (1998)
MGS. The greatest single player game so far.
Embrace the immense cinematography, game-play, storyline and atmospheric stealth mode of Metal Gear Solid. This game released in 1998, as I was only 8 when I started playing it, completed it on my 9th birthday, and what an amazing experience it was. It felt like I had achieved a massive goal in my life, being only young and so infatuated with gaming, this created a light in my life. I believe this game inspired all stealth-mode games from it's time onwards. Though nothing has managed to compare to that journey you make through MGS, it gave off a movie-like feel, where you controlled the main character with honor, always wondering what would happen next, and never leaving it too easy. This game uses all elements of skill required in gaming, from quick thinking, composure, puzzle solving to raw control over your character. As you make your way through the game, you'll slowly feel a part of it, like you've never felt in a game before, it sucks you into it's own little world. All in all, the best single-player game I've yet to play.
The Haunted World of El Superbeasto (2009)
Love it or Hate it! Inappropriately funny!
Watching this movie I did nothing but laugh, though I knew it was wrong to laugh at zombie Nazi's getting their heads sliced off by a hot animated busty-blonde-chick with an eye patch, I just couldn't help it. The movie was stylish, funny, and careless, with a "So what?" Attitude.
This movie will either leave you in disgust, or laughing until your lungs bleed. Personally for me, this movie was a love, as I can only speak for myself I can't say you'll like it, but if you think you'll like it, then you'll probably love it. If you like immature and comically brutal cartoons, with sex drive and bad-mouth language, then you'll love this!
