The Loop

Posted by santosj on March 31, 2006 Comments Off

I looked and witnessed the funniest thing since ever on network television. The brother is one of the typical idiot stoner types, but more lovable than the others. More humorous than even the guy from “My Name is Earl”, but I think it is just that the brother on The Loop is just crazier than the brother on My Name is Earl.

The stoner brother screws up his brothers balls and they had to go to the doctor for the burns on the hands and to make sure the penis wasn’t messed up. I liked the part where he goes over all of the other three main characters to find one to jerk the guy off.

Doctor: “Well, you could ask your girlfriend” Looking at the girl-friend who the guy wants to bang.

Guy: “That isn’t my girlfriend.”

Doctor: “You could ask your other girlfriend.” Looking at the first girl (for a) friend that is more of a slut (but totally hot and would totally hit that… if I wasn’t lame).

Guy: “No, that is also my friend.”

Doctor: (Pointing to the other brother) “You could ask your wife.”

Guy: “That is my brother.”

Finally, the slutish friend jerks him off and he goes to his bosses ranch to close the deal.

When he gets to the ranch his girl-friend that he totally wants to bang is bitching about him not wanting her to jerk him off because she is studing to be a medical student and it would be like extra credit or something. He tries to tell her that he likes her and wants her to have his babies, but his supervisors shows up and orders him to hurry up.

Remember that his hands are still burned and is still wearing the bandages. His boss tells him to take them off since he lied and told him that it was for boxing. He tears them off and shakes the hand of his boss hurting like hell.

Then he has to shake a long line of executives, which he does, hurting like a bitch all the way.

Conclusion and My Thoughts

Damn good episode and I’m looking forward to more from The Loop. I just hope that Fox doesn’t dump it like all of the other good shows. I like The Loop better since it has a lighter more sarcastic feel to it than the other show; Free Ride. I will keep up with both shows for the season along with watching 24 and Prison Break.

Damn Disney

Posted by santosj on January 22, 2006 2 comments

Disney: The Network for F-rate Actors

Watching Disney is like watching a group of people having seizures and soiling themselves. I’m kind of torn between believing that the actors and actresses actually suck or just acting that way because of the audience. There is some evidence that supports that they are acting like they suck, but I’m not quite sure. It kind of ruins it for me because I want to like some shows but I can’t help, but hate it. It is so damn fake and unrealistic. I don’t watch tv to have the characters let me know what I’m watching is fantasy. I watch it to get away from reality and think that the world could actually happen.

Did I mention I hate Disney… with a passion (of the Christ)

Well, I do, which I guess makes me bais, but I could care less. I think Disney was great once upon a time back when they made Snow White and the Seven Dwaves. It seems that any person can be an actor on Disney, even my ass could possible play a part. I suck as an actor, can’t act, smile when the camera hits me and only have one facial expression… except when I’m smiling at the camera. I’m also like a 1 in Hollywood look scale. So, when I say I have a chance at a part in Disney channel, I’m really being sarcastic.

That’s So Raven

Damn I hate this crap show so damn much. I never did like the Raven character, because her music sucked and her acting is horrible as it always has been. That isn’t to say that I haven’t catched a few episodes that I have enjoyed. It is good in a childish kind of way and the fantasy, future thing is a selling point for me. If it didn’t have that, then there would be no way in hell that I would sit and watch it. The supporting cast is very good and quite funny. The little hateful, evil, and conniving brother is quite humorous with his little antics and schemes.

The two friends are also quite funny and make up for Raven’s lack of acting ability. There also seems to be a trend where the parents are halfwits and arrogant of their surroundings. This is also true on this series. I also suspect that the bitches wear cups in their bras. The reason for this is unknown, why a 10 year old would care about the size of actress that is supposed to be playing a 16 or 17 year old is beyond me. The appeal of the older audience shouldn’t be in the size of the breasts but the story line and acting ability… but I am talking about That’s So Raven so my guess is that they need to just like digitalize a EE cup on the bitches.

Damn Movies

Dear God,

Please kill me before I watch any more crappy Disney movies. On second thought, kill the damn people who make the movies.

Although, there are some damn good movies, the Halloween Specials with the witches and the other world. Every once in a while, they will come out with a kick ass movie that I will miss and catch a few years later when I flip past the channel.

W.I.T.C.H

Always thought the good cartoons would be on Cartoon Network (along with Adult Swim). WITCH is an good exception, which they may screw up in its second season. I hope not because I’m going to record the season and try to watch it more frequently than the first season, which I only caught about one or two seasons.

Need Anime!

Posted by santosj on January 4, 2006 Comments Off

I’ve been working and programming since September of last year, so I’ve been away from the anime scene for a while. While the popular anime series will be easy to catch up on, some of the others won’t be. That is the problem with Anime, to get on top of things you need to be highly involved for at least a day or two a week. I’ve let the anime news and community get away from me. It is nice that I can download most of what I missed and not have to wait like I would have if I was on top of things, it is still a hassle to spend more time tracking the old series and waiting for the downloads.

The places I can go are quite a lot, but some of them are unreliable. It is not a total lose if I don’t know what I missed, but eventually the news of an awesome series will come up and I’ll want to get up on it. Plus, some of the places aren’t too reliable on the downloads, meaning that the videos weren’t encoded correctly, the sound is missing, or a whole other case of other problems.

Need Space

Two of my 100 GB have failed on me, so I’m stuck with a 200 GB hard drive that is at 90% full. I have been planning on buying a removable drive of high capacity, but it is pricely. It would be cheaper to buy another 200 GB drive or two internal drives, at the risk of them failing again. If they are removable, then I can label and store them in a safe place, the hard drives will last longer because once they are full and I have seen everything on the drive, I can stop using it extending the life of the drive for years.

I will try to get more involved in the anime scene as I’m interested on what I missed. If I spend too long away, then I’ll never be able to catch up on the lower popularity anime series. As new anime series (both good and my type and those that I’ll never watch) come out, I have to determine, whether it is good enough for me to buy, if it is available for me to buy. Since I don’t have a whole lot of money, buying every anime series that I want, is going to be extremely difficult.

Incomplete List

This list isn’t perfect and is still incomplete. I will try to go back and start from the beginning, when I find the time to complete the list. I don’t think I will double check my results, because I took enough time checking and double checking as I wrote the list.

What the “1/2″ Means

It should also be noted that whenever I use “1/2,” I mean that the last chapter was used in the episode but not completely. It could mean that it used one page or 15 pages, but not the whole chapter.

Bleach Episode 20

Posted by santosj on February 28, 2005 Comments Off

Manga Chapters: 65-70 (first half)
Number of Chapters: 6
Manga RAW: 168

My Predictions for this Chapter: 65- 68

They did more than what I had hoped they would do but they did leave some parts out from the chapter, I suspect they will come back to them at a later date. This was a great chapter but I suspect they are rushing it again. They were doing so well before but I suppose leaving one more episode before they enter Soul Society is to much for most anime watchers.

Predictions

Episode 21: Chapter 70-75

I still believe that this chapter will cover the whole Gatekeeper battle, even if it is 5 and a half chapters. I think it should end after the gate is closing on Gin’s face. That would be pretty cool.

Episode 21: Chapter 76-79

I think this episode will be about the meeting of the little parrot boy and the girl that will eventually send them over the wall.

Bleach Episodes 18 and 19

Posted by santosj on February 16, 2005 Comments Off

It has been a while since I have posted about the bleach anime and I will again post my thoughts on two episodes.

Episode 18

Manga Chapters: 58-61
Number of Chapters: 4
Manga RAW: 167

My Predictions for this Chapter: 58-60

I was off by one but right in my general prediction. They added one more chapter to add in the time and make the ending a cliffhanger. It was a good chapter and they added in some funny transitional elements that made the anime good.

Episode 19

Manga Chapters: 62-64, 65 (first part)
Number of Chapters: 3 1/2
Manga RAW: none

My Predictions for this Chapter: 61-64

I’m not going to count manga chapter 65 against myself since they only used the first couple of pages and left the rest alone. They also put the manga chapter 65 in the near beginning so that isn’t quite fair that way. They made the chapter scenes a lot longer which is cool. They made his sword look pretty bad ass and kept true to the manga chapter.

Predictions

Episode 20: Chapter 65(rest of chapter, maybe), 66-68

I think they can make this episode really awesome while finishing the training session and having the party afterwards. They can also have some of the dad humor that is in the manga. I also hope they add in the rest of manga chapter 65 but they may add that in in the next episode.

Episode 21: Chapter 69-72

I believe that the majority of the episode is going to be the journey to the soul society and part of the fight with the gate keeper. This could change as they may put chapter 69 in with episode 20 and finish the gatekeeper battle in one episode.

Episode 22: Chapter 73-76

Will probably finish the Gatekeeper battle and conclude with the battle of the caption. It is a little to far ahead but it will probably also include the meeting with the brother and sister and the boy that Ichigo saved a while back.

Episode 23: Chapter 77-80

Ichigo and the rest are shown the way into soul society and more information is revealed about the inner city as the date of her execution is set back.

There is no point in continuing the predictions because there is no telling what they are going to do with the rest of the manga. I will update my predictions as always next week when I finish watching the next episode and predict the next three episodes after that. For not being able to update my predictions last week I did a pretty good job on the past two weeks. I just hope I am lucky with the next two episodes.

Bleach Episode 17

Posted by santosj on February 1, 2005 Comments Off

Manga Chapters: 55-57
Number of Chapters: 3
Manga RAW: 165

My Predictions for this Chapter: 55-57

I was right, what luck! I really liked this episode and that they are slowing down on using the manga chapters. They also added a lot of really cool action and talking. It both ended the rukia leaving and started the training arc at the same time. The next episode is going to be really awesome. Lets see if I’m right about the other chapters!

Predictions

Episode 18: Chapter 58-60

This will start the training arc, which is pretty cool because I had this episode as the end of the training arc so that is a good sign the anime isn’t going to end soon. It will probably end with the cutting of the chain of life and the cat will start training the Orhime and Chad.

Episode 19: Chapter 61-64

Second training session with Ichigo and some more training of the other two with the cat. The Ichigo training with probably be completed and end when the third test begins.

Episode 20: Chapter 65-67

This will end the training arc, if they don’t put the arc in two episodes then this will be the end of it. I hope they put the arc in three episodes because that would give the manga more time.

Bleach Episode 15 and 16

Posted by santosj on January 26, 2005 Comments Off

Episode 15

Manga Chapters: 26, 51
Number of Chapters: 2
Manga RAW: 164

My Predictions for this Chapter: 51-54

I was really wrong but this is a good thing. The point is they only used two manga chapters and expanded on the general story to make it longer. They also added the Kon Filler, which was really neat and I missed out on that when they skipped it.

Episode 16

Manga Chapters: 52-54
Number of Chapters: 3
Manga RAW: 165

My Predictions for this Chapter: 55-59

This episode was nice, they transitioned the anime really well and did a good job setting the next arc up. It is going to be pretty exciting in the next episodes.

My mistake was to put the manga chapters into a bigger arc and not split the arcs further, if I would had then I probably would of had better predictions. I won’t make the same mistakes with my future predictions. The only problem is that there is still some tidbits left in this arc that they left out so I suppose there will be another episode to finish this arc off but it isn’t like them to have three episodes in a small arc.

Predictions

Episode 17: Chapters 55-57

This episode will finish up the arc and the battle. It may show the aftermath since it will be three chapters and I don’t think they are going to do this episode in two.

Episode 18: Chapter 58-60

This will start the training arc, which is pretty cool because I had this episode as the end of the training arc so that is a good sign the anime isn’t going to end soon. It will probably end with the cutting of the chain of life and the cat will start training the Orhime and Chad.

Episode 19: Chapter 61-64

Second training session with Ichigo and some more training of the other two with the cat. The Ichigo training with probably be completed and end when the third test begins.

Episode 20: Chapter 65-67

This will end the training arc, if they don’t put the arc in two episodes then this will be the end of it. I hope they put the arc in three episodes because that would give the manga more time.

Episode 21: Chapter 68-71

Finish the training and go on the vacation before they enter the gate. They will probably be able to exit the gate and meet the gate keeper.

Episode 22: Chapter 72-75

The battle with the gate keeper and the Captain then ends with the defeat of the Ichigo.

1. Ichigo gets up after attack.

3. They meet the boy that was the parrot.
