Its been one pretty interesting two weeks. Went to Comic-Con which was a big learning experience. Saw a lot of things, things we didn't see, and things, that well; we wish we never saw. Also we went through a recent earthquake which was highly debated just how strong it was. It went from 5.8 down to 5.4. Pretty shaky, but wasn't too bad, it only woke me up and didn't knock anything down fortunately. Again this is earthquake country at least it wasn't so bad as recent earthquakes have been. So its all been good.
Until recently have I read a recent article about how things are shaping with Activision about their recent bought of Vivendi. I thought it was cool, until I read the article of the games that have been revitalized and games that may be dropped from the Vivendi publishing studio. The few games that I read about that have been saved, are mostly games which mostly been used up and have really no place in video games anymore, but when I came up on the bigger titles with more potential that might be dropped; I was stunned. The games on the list were: Brütal Legend, WET, 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena and World in Conflict: Soviet Assault, and Ghostbusters: The Video Game. No way. Ghostbusters may be dropped? I saw it at Comic-Con!
(See some guy is playing the demo)
It can't be dropped it looks really good and one of the games I was really looking forward to. But they can't. It wont be. Even the guys who made it said so! So what will be the final verdict? Who knows, we have to wait and see for now.
With other things aside, there have also been talks of a Venom movie, who will be in the next batman movie, and other craziness like this new Harry Potter trailer for the new movie:
You can watch the High Def version of the trailer here.
Also a demonstration on the new WiiMotionPlus peripheral:
Video of the Day:
Most people by now know about the Late Night with Conan O' Brien show on NBC which is filled with much hilarity and lots of randomness. Here's Conan doing a little community service, so to speak; for UPS:
Also be sure to check out Triumph the Insult Dog's trip to Comic-Con in these two video's (Extra Warning: if you aren't a fan of a dog, that's a puppet, insulting people in cruel ways; watch at your own risk):

Movie Posters that look like other Movie Posters:
Here's another installment of the series, which I completely made up, that shows off how lazy the people who make posters; really can be. Now here's two that completely have nothing in common and one's a movie and one's about to become an HBO series, so it can somewhat be forgiven, but not completely:
