'The Expendables' Trailer in HD

Every boy grows up loving action movies, wanting to be that superhero, wanting to save the world. I, for one had my own share of action stars and superheroes. From the good old and still great Sylvester Stallone movies, to high flying fast moving Jet Li movies, to the car chase and adrenaline rush Jason Statham movies, and the hard to die movies of Bruce Willis. Along with rest of the good old action stars like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lundgren, and Mickey Rourke and the more modern action stars like Terry Crews, Randy Couture, and Steve Austin. Most of their movies were great, some were good and some, well, let us just say they are better left on tape and not on the big screen.

But just recently I was surprised, that all the names I mentioned are now in one big movie! “The Expendables”! Getting to see the older action stars do an action movie is already something to look forward to, but see them along with newer action stars in one movie is totally something else! I watched the HD Trailer of “The Expendables” and it already looks promising. Watch and enjoyed as I did myself. And for those who are not yet that familiar with the new movie “The Expendables”, here is a little synopsis for all of you.

StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty

StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is officially out. The best strategy game there is. I was a big fan of the first Starcraft game. I literally grew up with it. Sleepless nights spent playing the game at home and at a computer shop. Countless hours spent battling it out with my friends playing against each other  in multiplayer mode. And proud as I am, I reached the semi finals of a computer shops Starcraft competition game. I was good then. But then they became better. I was already in college then I had to rethink my priorities since I was starting to fail in my exams.  So I guess that means lesser time with Starcraft and more time with school stuff.  But that did not stop me from loving the game. I never grew tired of game even up to now, I still have the game installed in my desktop. I love it and will always do, and it will always be part of my unforgettable college life.  And now that the second installment is out, I am pretty sure I am going to love the game just the same.  For those not really familiar with Starcraft II, here a little overview of what the game is all about.

StarCraft II is split into three parts: the base game with the subtitle Wings of Liberty, and two expansion packs, Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void. Set in the 26th century in a distant part of the Milky Way galaxy, the game is built around three species: the Terrans, human exiles from Earth; the Zerg, a race of insectoid genetic assimilators; and the Protoss, a species with vast psionic power. Wings of Liberty focuses on the Terrans specifically, while the expansions Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void will focus on the Zerg and Protoss, respectively. The game is set four years after the events of Starcraft: Brood War, and follow the exploits of Jim Raynor as he leads an insurgent group against the autocratic Terran Dominion. The game includes old and new characters and locations from the original game.

and then i started to read

I can finally say to me myself that I finally finished reading a book that I actually understood.

Well, I was never the bookish type. I mean, I tried. But I can only last 10 to 15 minutes. Next thing you know, my eyes are starting to doze off.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I know, I know. It’s a kid’s book. But hey, at least it served me well.

I found the eagerness to read the book right after I did my Harry Potter marathon. After watching Book 6, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, It just had me craving to watch the next book. Too bad the movie isn’t out until November. So, left with no choice and curiosity of finding out what’s going to happen next, I grabbed a copy of Book 7, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows immediately. At first I thought this was going to be one of those good-at-the-start things that I usually do. To my surprise, I got hooked with the book. I didn’t get to finish reading the book that fast, but who’s racing, right? I finished reading the book a week after.

Now done that I am done with book, all I have to wait is November and wait for the first book I read come to life.
