Royal Pedophile

Started watching Royal Pains just recently. Not that bad of a show really, the first episode was a pleasure to watch to my big surprise (I didn't expect much beforehand). But, as usual, I have a tiny-winy complaint about one of the actors. Meredith Hagner portraying Liby, this emotional sixteen years old girlfriend of an ultra-rich but deprived of parents' attention charismatic boy. The moment I heard Liby was sixteen, I went "what the..." The girl's skin doesn't seem too fresh and she is heavily wrinkled (we get to see all that thanks to extreme close-ups). In my head she didn't look younger than twenty-five. I have never heard of that actress before, so I had to turn to iMDB for reference. Meredith Hagner currently has only two credited works, and she is twenty-two years old. OK, I was wrong (although I still think she looks bad even for her actual age), but still, she is not even close to sixteen. I kinda got used to actors in their thirties playing young college students, but Liby situation is over the top. What sucks even more is that Liby's boyfriend Tucker, portrayed by Ezra Miller (liked him in Californication), appears his character's age. Liby and Tucker don't look that well together, and the word pedophilia comes to mind when I see them kissing.

Tomb Raider Trilogy. Comparison: PC vs Xbox 360 vs PS3

The Tomb Raider trilogy I'm going to talk about includes the following games (released in exactly the order I have them listed): Tomb Raider: Legend Tomb Raider: Anniversary Tomb Raider: Underworld There are a few things that appear to be worth mentioning. First, even though all the games in the trilogy were built on the same game engine, namely Crystal Dynamics engine, they use the different versions of that software. It looks like the versions of the engine are not actually mentioned to the public and a whole bunch of games use the same engine title. Deus Ex: Human Revolution and the 2012 Tomb Raider game both are powered by the same tech. Nonetheless, Legend and Anniversary appear to be sharing the same version of the Crystal engine (even if the engine was updated for Anniversary, the changes were minor). Underworld, on the other hand, is a whole new breed of beast. The visuals and, most importantly, performance are completely different from what is seen in the prior two

The Spawn

Couldn't help myself but to mention this: Robin Tunney is the ugliest creature I've ever seen on or off the screen. The first season of Prison Break was severely spoiled by her appearance, and now she poisons The Mentalist , the show which has a pretty interesting cast otherwise. I seriously don't understand how someone like Robin Tunney manages to get any kind of acting job. She is so ugly I literally get nausea every time I see her. I can admit she has something attractive about her eyes, but every other single feature overwrites it in an unpleasant way. As if this wasn't enough, her voice is very annoying. What is more important, she is not even acting. I've seen her on screen quite a few times and can say without a doubt she can't perform for shit, she just opens her eyes wide and starts crooking her already crooked mouth. The moment she gets shot in the first episode of second season of Prison Break is the most satisfying moment in the history of televisi

There Is Life without the Internet...

Soon this theory will be put to the test. Tomorrow I am going to see two movies in a row, Marley & Me (2008) and Watchmen (2009). In that order. The tickets were already purchases online and printed out. Hope it won't be too crowded, especially at the Watchmen showing - it's this movie's local premiere day after all. And the day after tomorrow I am leaving my beloved country. Indefinitely. There is nothing fun about the trip, but it is something that must be done. I will be living in some shithole with population of around 5K. There will be no TV, no Internet and no PC. Well, I am taking my Macbook Pro, but this machine was not meant to be used for fun. This is the time for my trustworthy PSP and DS to do a lot of heavy lifting. It will be the perfect opportunity to finally play all the games I bought for those handheld consoles. Still, I am getting depressed already.
