Poor Drake...



So Drake has had some complications from his surgery. It is possible that they only removed 1 testicle from him. We have to go back to the Vet next week to find out for sure. Right now, we are only hoping that he gets better and that the Doc is wrong. I don't want to take him back to the shady place (Alliance for Animals, a clinic) to finish a job they should have done right in the first place. What's worst (for them) is that now Letha's pissed. One person you don't want on your bad side is a smart woman who (along with me) treats her dogs like her kids. She was a premed major and for fun pokes around at legal stuff.

Still hoping for the best...not just for us, but mainly for the little guy.

The Dark Knight...


If you like these kinds of movie...believe the hype. If you don't and you are only slightly interested, do yourself a favor...go see it. Heath is not noticable as the Joker and he is exactly how I wanted the character to be...just insane from the beginning to the end.

I hope you enjoy.

Top 5 Marvel Films...

So it is no secret that I really enjoy the book HIGH FIDELITY, that's why I use the top 5 format for some stuff...like this.

This is a count down and will start at #5 and you will have to scroll don to #1 (I hate list that show you #1 first...there is no build up or suspense). There were 19 movies considered for this list (not including the straight to video version of THE PUNISHER).

The list is taken from the following:

SPIDER-MAN 1, 2 & 3
X-MEN 1, 2 & 3
FANTASTIC FOUR 1 & 2
Both versions of THE HULK
GHOST RIDER
DAREDEVIL and the follow up ELEKTRA
THE PUNISHER
BLADE 1, 2 & 3
HOWARD THE DUCK
IRON MAN

#5 - SPIDER-MAN

The first story of Peter Parker to hit the screen was a lot of fun. Relied to heavily on CGI at some points, but it was so much fun swinging around NYC with the webhead.

#4 - X-MEN

A movie I had waited to see since for almost 10 years (when James Cameron was rumored to be the director) was everything I was hoping it would be. Bryan Singer was the perfect choice for this movie and treated with respect while bringing the first REAL comic book movie (for Marvel)to the screen. I remember watching it with Mark Buckwalter (another huge X fan) and just looking at each other and being amazed at what we were watching.

#3 - SPIDER-MAN 2

The first movie for Spidey was a lot of fun, but this movie brought in the drama too. It was a lot of fun to watch the great exposition. Doc Ock was a lot of fun to follow as well. It felt like the first movie but was just flat out better.

#2 - IRON MAN

From beginning to end it wasn't boring. There are so many little things in the movie for the fans (still haven't seen Captain America's shield yet) that are done with grace as to not pull non-fanboys out of the movie. Great casting, great acting and great directing made this one of the best comic book movies of all time.

#1 - X2: X-Men United

This is the BEST movie that Marvel has put out to date. The opening scene with Nightcrawler is amazing! It does drag on at some points but has lots of storytelling and is just a lot of fun. My favorite comic book franchise didn't dissapoint until the crap third installment.

The honorable mentions:

THE INCREDIBLE HULK
BLADE
FANTASTIC FOUR
