Bruce Campbell vs The Army of Darkness
Robert Ebert gave Army of Darkness a average review. I also somewhat agree with him when he said Army wasn't as much fun as Evil Dead II, which was the prequel before Army. Evil Dead II was indeed fun but can't compare to classiness and comedic value that is Army of Darkness. Bruce Campbell is a cult classic actor. Army of Darkness will always be one of my favorite all time cult movie classics. The effects in the movie are silly which make this movie fun and entertaining. Bruce Campbell plays dual roles in this movie being both the "goody two shoes" and "Bad Ash". Both roles drove the movie and is what made the Army of Darkness such a classic. As I said before the effects are silly in Army. However thats what makes the Evil Dead Trilogy. The blood and gore looks like a muppet massacre. Many of the props were puppets. This is what you get for a low budget film. All of the Evil Dead films and Army were this way, what made the trilogy fun and humorous.

Portal 2 - PAX: Co-Op Trailer Video - Xbox 360 - IGN
Portal 2 - PAX: Co-Op Trailer Video - Xbox 360 - IGN
The following link leads to the trailer for a game called Portal 2. This game is something I've been waiting for. For maybe year and a half. The trailer for the co-op mode looks pretty amazing. Its suppose to be relatively harder than the games main story line. As much as I'm excited for the main story line for portal I really want to play the co-op. It looks super fun and challenging both things I look for in a game.

My Dream School
If I were going to my absolute dream school I'd say I'd go to would to The Kubert School. The school is design to help aspiring comic book artist and cartoonist find the tools they need to graduate in these fields. The reason I want to there is because many of my own favorite comic artists had gone to the school. Only down side to the school is the school is all the way in Dover New Jersey.
But I really don't care how far it is, I'd do it. Its a really incredible school that one of my favorite publishers, DC comics even recommends. There are close to none comic book school in the U.S. and the ones that are in the U.S. are only found on the East coast. There was a school set to be developed for the west coast, however there has been no news on it except for its soon to be location in San Gabriel, California.

My 5 Year Plan
Because I'm going to be a high school graduate very soon; I get asked the same question all the time: Where do you see yourself in 5 years? First off, I just hope to make it to graduation day. But after I'm out of school I hope to take a year off from school to give myself a break. I've been working my fingers to the bone since 9th grade to get where I need to be.
During my year off from school I'm going to get a job. I don't have the kind of income from family that some people get on a silver platter. I also feel its a good way to teach myself responsibility with money. During this year of I also hope to work on my own comics.
The next year I hope to attend OCC's business classes to learn how to sell my comics. From there I hope I get an even better job working for a comic book publisher. If I have to I will work with the smaller publishers first and work my way up. This will take time up probably my whole 5 years.
