Smartphone Status: 2014 Smartphones and iPhone Air?

Christmas came and went. Hopefully you had a good Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa or anything else that I forgot. Is it just me, or did 2013 fly? Some years just feel faster than others. So, if 2013 is almost gone, then that obviously means 2014 on the horizon. What does this mean for smartphones? In 2013 we had the iPhone 5, 5s and 5c, the HTC One, and an unnecessary number of Samsung smartphones. Of coarse, there are hundreds more, these are just a few. There have been a bunch more tablets too. Some of the best selling were the iPad mini and iPad mini with Retina display, the Surface 2 and Surface 2 Pro, and the Samsung Galaxy Tab and Mega. Right now, the main tablets that's getting all the love and attention is the iPad Air. Hmmm. I wonder where Apple got the idea for that? (Hint, hint, the MacBook Air). The tablet is really nice and is true to its name. Apple really likes their products that are "light as air". Nobody saw that coming.  I think it is fairly accurate to say that Apple will have another Air product within the near future. Maybe, an iPhone Air. I personally think this is the dumbest idea ever, but people seem to be talking about it a lot. I think Apple would be smart enough not to make an iPhone with that name. Then again, they did make 3 iPhone 5's so who knows.

The iPhone Air isn't the only rumored smartphone of 2014. There are at least a dozen. Another one of my favorites is the HTC Two. We know that there will be follow up smartphone from HTC, but no one knows what it will be called. The HTC 2 would be really stupid. It will probably  be called something with a bunch of random letters and numbers. Once again, everyone has been calling it the HTC Two. I'll give everyone who thinks that 10 bucks if it's called that. And considering how many people actually think that it will be called the HTC 2, I won't be able to give even half that many people 10 dollars. So, I can't make that promise. 

What We Want From iOS 8... And What we Don't Want

 iOS 7 wasn't the greatest success. I like it, but my opinion doesn't matter to Apple. They have plenty of other things to worry about. Like, for example, iPhone 6, or iPad mini 3, or the iWatch, (ahem, Apple, I'm talking to you) or maybe even the much anticipated iOS 8. Android 4.2 is on the horizon, Android needs to have something to compete with. So, I made a list of things that I want to see in iOS 8, if that's what they decide to call the new operating system.

•  Which leads me to my first point. iOS needs a new name. iOs 4, 5, 6, and now 7 are all numbers. They should get creative with they're names. Like the Mac operating systems. They were all named after cats. Mountain Lion, Panther, Jackal, etc. At least until OS X Mavericks came along and ruined it all. I can't blame them though, eventually they were going to run out of cats, unless they revert to 'OS Tabby' or "OS Hairless'. Apple would really get some crap for that. I don't really have any suggestions to call the future operating systems. As long as they don't do roman numerals or dogs. The last thing we need is in 20 years to have iOS XL. So, my first word of advice is to make the iOS names more interesting.
•  Secondly, I would like to see or in this case feel, a new way to access things. On an iOS 7 iPad I'm always opening the search bar when I want to check my notifications and vice versa. I find the accessing controls messed up. i don't know if iOS should switch to voice controls, or just make everything accessible through the command bar that is featured in iOS 7. My second word of advice regarding future iOS updates is to make the controls more user friendly.
•  Let's talk a little deeper. As an iOS 7 user, and knowing many other iOS users, it's sad to say that the future iOS's need to improve their stability. iOS 7 crashes all the time. It doesn't matter if it's an app, the actual phone. iOS 7 crashes. It's unacceptable. Especially for  an Apple product. That's kind of sad. I hate to be saying this but Apple needs to improve the stability with there software and operating systems. It's weird because iOS 6 never crashed. All of the sudden everything crashes.

 Is there anything else in iOS 7 that needs improving?

Motorola's Moto G Makes Makes an Early Release Here in the U.S.

 We've all seen the commercials for Motorola's new smartphone, the Moto G, maybe you are asking for it as a late Christmas present, considering it comes out in February... Or does it. Yep, that's right, Motorola is now able to pull forward the release date by about three months. How's that for an early Christmas present? The Moto G is the most anticipated smartphone right now, or at least out of the ones we have seen. Because of some crazy unexpected boost in production speed, Motorola will be releasing the new Moto G this Tuesday, December 3rd!

 This is smart of Motorola, This is going to be a very big Christmas gift for many people. This looks like a great smartphone. It will be running Android 4.3 by default, with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with a 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU. It will be an 8 GB standard capacity, however, a 16 GB version will be available. the rear camera will have 5 MP at 4:3 and 3:8 at 16:9. The front camera will have 1.3 MP Don't worry, all these settings will be user configurable. The battery is a rechargeable lithium-ion, 2070 mAh with a battery life of up to 24 hours. The Moto G will also have Bluetooth  Version 4.0 Technology.

 Overall, this looks like a great phone. for the full page of specs, click here.

Smartphone Status: Samsung Claiming the Fame?

 SO many rumors have been popping from nowhere like gunshots about as much as we heard rumors of Star Wars 7. However, around the same amount of rumors have been dropping like flies. I personally think the big talk is regarding the heated battle between Apple and Samsung. Somehow, HTC has dropped out of the picture. Has Apple been slacking, or is Samsung just pounding Apple into the ground, and does Apple deserve that. All that and more, all in one post.

 Lets start with the Samsung Galaxy S5. We know its coming next year by April. The word on the street is that it's coming with 4 Gigabytes of RAM. If so, that's just going to crush Apple. That would make the Galaxy S5 the first smartphone to do so. Samsung has unlocked the key to getting peoples 'attention. Apple seams to be getting peoples' attention, but every time Apple does, Samsung creates a better, smarter device that pretty much makes that once amazing Apple product to look like dust in the dirt.

 For example, everybody was amazed when they heard about Apple's newly promised 'iWatch' and what happened because of Apple's lack of modern speed? 'Samsung's Galaxy Gear Smartwatch', that's what. What do you think is taking Apple so long to reach the success that companies like Samsung and LG. Speaking of which, where did LG come from? LG has the 10th best phone on the market, until the crazy sudden appearance if the new LG G2. Which somehow, now claims the top spot on the best-selling smartphone top 10. What?
 Remember in like, 2008 when smartphones were at there tip? Apple was in it's glory days? I miss those days. So, does Samsung deserve the fame? Do you think it's crazy forLG to just pop out like that?

Monstercat 015: Outlook was Released Yesterday

  I personally am a fan of Daft Punk style mixers like Stephen Walking and Insan3Lik3. One thing that they have in common is that they both are members of the Monstercat Association thing. I really like Monstercat. Monstercat is a group of talented artists that pool together there music specific albums that feature compilations of their music. Because there are over 20 of them all working at it at the same time, there are at least three new albums every year.
  Finally, after waiting three months, (long time right?) Monstercat released "Monstercat 015: Outlook" Yesterday. I was super excited. My favorite track on the new album is 'Some Kinda Wizard' by Stephen Walking. I like the whole album though. If your looking to get into some great new music, click here. or via the iTunes Store. I hope this doesn't sound like an Infomercial...      :)

I know that was quick, but I have to get back to listening to Monstercat!

Kevin Smith Has Seen Pictures of Ben Affleck in the New Batman Suit... Lucky!

   Kevin Smith, the now luckiest guy in the world, has seen pictures not only of the new suit planned for 'Batman vs. Superman', but he has seen pictures of Ben Affleck in the suit. I still think Ben Affleck is going to be a George Clooney of a Batman, mainly because he ruined Daredevil and I can't see him do this to The Caped Crusader. However, I am interested in the suit. I just hope that Kevin Smith leaks these pictures over to Ray William Johnson or Jimmy Kimmel or someone to through all over the Internet. This is probably never going to happen, and if it does, our friend Mr. Smith will lose his job.

   Kevin was able to give us a brief description of what to expect in a podcast. Funny enough, he bleeped himself out for a good while, probably because he said to much regarding the suit. What he did say, was very Kevin Smith of him. Heres part of what he said.

     "You haven't seen this costume on film before. For a comic-fan, it's mind-bending... Because every other movie does this Matrix-y type black armor thing... There wasn't a single nipple on this suit."

    That sounds pleasing, but I'm not exactly sure if I can trust him. From the tone of his voice, he sounded pretty suspicious. Who knows.

Microsoft Surface 2: Is There a Hope?

Microsoft has been very proud of there new tablet, the Surface 2. The catchphrase for this device is

"Leaner. Meaner."

I don't know about you, but in my opinion, that has got to be the worst catchphrase ever. The actual device, however, is halfway interesting. Oh, sorry, I'm an Apple guy, and I just said that. It actual might have some potential. It is a lot thinner, as the catchphrase suggests. It also has a higher resolution. It comes with Windows 8.1, which to me is crap, but it does look like a half way decent tablet. Some of the accessories and advertisements are pretty lame.

I'm going to say that this tablet has some potential, but the way Microsoft advertises it is pretty bad. Microsoft has a strange way of advertising all of there products. Somehow, making every word in the description is cleaner and more organized.

I. Don't. Know. About. You. But. I. Find. It. Kind. Of. Annoying. Especially. If. You. Are. The. One. Typing. This. Whole. Thing. Out. Hey. At. Least. It's. Not. Question. Marks. Or. Parentheses. LOL.

In conclusion, I do like this tablet, in some ways, and I think it has some potential. I don't think they are even close to where Apple is these days. However, with Apple's lowering quality percentage rate, within a year, Microsoft could catch up. But now that the iPad Air came out, Microsoft might be screwed.

Thanks. For. Reading.

'Thor; The Dark World' Review & Spoilers Discussion: More Than Satisfied

***This Movie Review Contains Major Spoilers. The Whole Movie IS Basically A Giant Spoiler. BEWARE***

    'Thor: The Dark World pounds Iron Man 3 into the ground. This is how Phase 2 of the M.C.U. (Marvel Cinematic Universe) should have started. It's easy to consider it Marvel's 'Man of Steel'. The Movie is smart, yet dark, while remaining funny and clever. I was really pleased with how the movie turned out. Christopher Eccleston was the perfect Malekith. The Dark Elves make What's-his-name and the frost giant look like wimps. I'm just getting started. It may be hard to realize this, considering your just reading a review, but I am trying to contain everything that's stirring around in my brain.

    This may seem strange, but I am actually going to start with the end credit scene. I didn't stay for the very end, so i don't know what if there was an end credit scene or what it was. However, I saw the mid-credit scene. Which left me very pleased and my brain screaming.

    For starters, The Collector, who happens to be one of the villains in 2014's 'Guardians of the Galaxy', makes an appearance. My guess is that he works for Thanos, but I'm not going there yet. The Collector was trusted by Lady Sif and Volstagg to keep one of the Infinity stones safe. The Infinity stone happens to be the Aether. No, not the Aether mod as in Minecraft, but the darkness consumed by Malekith, making him the gruesome dark figure that he is near the end of the film. The Aether also possesses Jane Foster for a portion of the movie. When The Collector calls the Aether "An Infinity Stone", he is referencing to the Infinity Gems from the Infinity Gauntlet Marvel Comics series. There are six gems/stones, as claimed by The Collector. The Stones consist of the following,

• Soul Gem
• Power Gem
• Time Gem
• Space Gem
• Reality Gem
• Mind Gem

    Also, The Tesseract, (from The Avengers) is an Infinity Gem. I am unsure which one is which, But my guess is that the Aether is the Soul Gem and the Tesseract is the Space Gem. Once again, I am not entirely sure. If you've read what is now the five out of six issues of Marvel's Infinity, this probably makes a lot of sense right now.

    Next topic, trash. Yep, trash. In pretty much every science fiction movie I watch these days, the super-villain and/or the superhero trashes some really large city. In Man of Steel it's Metropolis, in Captain America: The First Avenger, it's Berlin & New York. In The Avengers, it's New York again. Thor: The Dark World is another '&'. Malekith and Thor ruin Asgard and London. Most of the property damages in Asgard were Malekith's fault, but Thor added to the mess.

    Another thing to point out, under the funny category is Chris Evans' cameo as Captain America. The scene was pretty funny even without Cap. Captain America made it better. Thor broke out Loki in order to help defeat Malekith. Loki was bugging the crap out of Thor when they were pretty much walking to treason. Loki was shape-shifting into random people. He later said, "How about one of your new friends?" and then he turned into Captain America. Just the things he was saying were funny. It was great to see Captain America as Captain America. Not like Iron Man 3 where Bruce Banner was Bruce Banner.

    Apperently, Loki Dies in this movie, but in the end yo can see that he faked his death. He even turned into Odin and talked to Thor. Which I'm guessing will be a big Mistake in The Avengers: Age of Ultron. The question is, where is the real Odin? Thor 3?

    Loki wasn't the only one who died. Queen Frigga was killed by one of Malekith's monsters, Kurse. She's actually dead. But I must say, she put up a really good fight against Malekith. She had more hand-to-hand combat skills than Thor. She even pinned him down and held a sword to his throat for a good 10 seconds. I'm sure all the women in the audience were proud.

    In conclusion, Thor: The Dark World was extremely satisfying and so much better than Iron Man 3. This time, the main villain was a real villain. Not some German actor. I was really happy with how it turned out. I had some hope for Kenneth I-Can't-Pronounce-His-Last-Name-Or-Type-It's return as the the director, but I actually like Alan Taylor much better. That wasn't normal for Whatever his name is to direct a superhero movie. I am really excited to see how it links together the rest of the Phase 2 movies. The Collector is going to be a villain in Guardian of the Galaxy, reprised by Benicio del Toro. Along with Thanos, the other villain, who will also be the "mini-villain" In The Avengers: Age of Ultron, the vmain villain will be Ultron. Not that hard. Ultron will be played be James Spader. Not sure if its a spoiler but, If Thanos dies in Guardians of the Galaxy, he wouldn't be an active villain in The Avengers Age of Ultron. Though he could be one of those "in the shadows" type of guys like he was in The Avengers. Like I said, The Collector probably works for Thanos. I do want to see Corvus Glaive return. Maybe even more of the Black Order/The Cull Obsidian. Maybe, Proxima Midnight, or Ebony Maw? I don't know. This is all pretty distant.

    Overall, Thor The Dark World was really good and entertaining. I give it 10.8, I would give it lower but some of those extra points are for making up for Iron Man 3's lack of any logical sense. Subtract that and I give it a 9.6

"Marvel's Man of Steel, Epic!"

Review. Logitech MK320 Wireless Combo

Today I'm going to review a new piece of technology that recently got my hands on. I know have the Logitech m215 wireless mouse and the Logitech k330 Wireless keyboard. Even though I have a Mac now, it works just fine. I have been experimenting with all the capabilities that the new keyboard has to offer. Mice don't take very long to adjust to. Funny enough, I already have a Logitech m325 wireless mouse. So I thought maybe one day I could compare them. The k330 keyboard is great. It's one of those keyboards that sounds smooth and quite when you type. It has several new keys, or at least new to me, because I had a really old wired Dell keyboard up until now. It has 2 backspace keys, one for the main part of the keyboard and one for the number pad. My old keyboard didn't have any audio or video controls. I knew before that a lot of keyboards had those now. You can literally stop, fast forward, or go back to any part of your movie or video right from your keyboard.
Since this keyboard was not design for MAc, it only has the F1-12  keys. On a Mac, the windows key is the Command key. I am really happy with all that this keyboard has to offer.

On to the Mouse! The Logitech m215 is a really nice, high quality mouse that I will enjoy using. I now have two wireless mice, and I found that each one specializes in different things. the m215, the mouse that came with this combo, is a very good gaming mouse. I had a lot of fun experimenting with Minecraft. Like I said, it was a lot of fun. I think I've ran out of things to say. I am speechless. These pieces of equipment are very good in there own ways.
 I'm not quite sure how the unifying receiver works on this one. It came with two USB thingies. one of them controls both the mouse and the keyboard, but then there's this other one, that's bigger, that I have no idea what  it does. It could just be an extension, I'm not entirely sure. It could actually be a flash drive. All though, I think it  would be labeled. I have yet to experiment what it does. There were like, three sentences for the mouse, and three for the keyboard, they didn't say anything about the unifying receiver. Probably because they had to say the same thing in like five other different languages and they got too lazy and tried to fit all five languages on one sheet of paper. I don't know. If you do know, I would really appreciate it if you know, if you would comment saying what it does. I'll eventually figure it out.
 So, to wrap things up, I would like to say that both the mouse and the keyboard are really good pieces of technology, and I can't wait to see what everything does.
Before I finish this post, I want to say Happy Halloween. If I don't make a whole post about it, than here it is now. Get really high on candy, then you can go click cookies on cookie clicker and probably get carpal tunnel.

Thanks for reading.
:-)

'Batman: Arkham Origins' Not available for Mac via Steam

Yesterday, the new Batman game, 'Batman: Arkham Origins was released. I was super excited to get it on Steam, $40 isn't bad. It would be may $60 if you got it from Gamestop. It looked really cool. I logged on to Steam, to see that it was only available on PC. That really disappointed me. I recently got a 2009 Mac Mini, w/ OS 10.8.5, and a bunch of super awesome applications. It replaced my Windows XP Microsoft Office '95 PC. It was going to be really cool... Until I saw that Windows sign in the corner of the game Thumbnail, and now Apple logo. How sad.

:(

Samsung Galaxy Gear Smartwatch - Is it Worth it?

 Samsung seems to be taking over all of Apple's fresh ideas. Here's the thing, in order to stay ahead of Apple, Samsung released the first 'smartwatch'. A touchscreen watch as been a concept Apple has been promising for years. However, Samsung beat them to it. Samsung's smartwatch is called 'Galaxy Gear'. It interacts with your Galaxy smartphone or any other Samsung Smartphone via Bluetooth. Obviously, with the seemingly constant advances in technology, you can guess that this device does more than tell you the time. With the Galaxy Gear, you can take calls, send texts, but not much else. The main point of the Gear is not to replace your phone, but to be your smartphone's companion. The Galaxy Gear is supposed to make your life less complicated. Whats the point of a device that's more complicated than the device it's trying to simplify.

 In Conclusion, The Samsung Galaxy gear could be the future of technology, or at least the smartwatch. We’ll just have to see what the future has in store.

Smartphone Status: iPhone vs. The World

 Apple has been making a big deal about their new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. I personally think they are very unique in there own way. For example, the iPhone 5s is the first phone to have iOS 7 pre-installed as the default system. The iPhone 5c has a very sleek plastic body, along with a colorful touch. However, Apple may have the success of their latest products going to they're head. While each new iPhone is greater than its predecessor, the speed of progress seams to be considerably "slow". Compared to the Samsung Galaxy S4, the size and shape seams to be in some ways better. The Galaxy S4 is thinner, and bigger, making it more open and spaced out. There are a lot of complaints regarding the recent iPhone layout, saying that its 'too crowded' or too 'compact'.

 According to Time, The iPhone 5 is actually the third highest ranked smartphone on the market today. Apple products were once the must have, leaving anything else in the dust. Now, Samsung and HTC not only caught up, but passed Apple in the great smartphone race.

 Besides the HTC One X, the iPhone 5 is the smallest. the largest being Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX HD, and the Samsung Galaxy S4.

Here are the top 10 Highest Rated Smartphones of today.

1) Samsung Galaxy S4

2) HTC One

3) Apple iPhone 5

4)Samsung Galaxy S3

5) Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX HD

6) HTC One X+

7)Motorola DROID RAZR HD

8) Samsung Galaxy S4 Active

9) HTC One X

10) LG Optimus G

 A lot of brands have there name on the Top 10 multiple times, but Apple and LG are the only major companies to have one best-selling product. If the quality of Apple is  turning out the same as LG, than Apple really needs to step up there game. When the first iPhone game out, nobody cared what a stupid HTC thing was. Now, we're seeing that over the past few years, the HTC One is a better smartphone than the iPhone?

 What happened to Apple? The iPad has been slacking. The only notable difference is that the resolution of the iPad 3 is higher. Quoting a few technical directors, "Apple isn't the same without Steve Jobs". It makes total sense. Jobs passed away in late 2011. Name one Major breakthrough in technology since then? Exactly.

 Somehow, the Apple consumers have been more creative than Apple itself. People have thought of a clear iPhone, an iPhone that projects a keyboard, etc. All of these are pretty advanced ideas, and could be distant in a release, but it's better than a lot of the stuff Apple has been putting on out plate these days. Now, I don't want to complain, because that's not what this article is about. I'm just saying that Apple is slacking, and/or being lazy. To the everyday consumer, the only difference between the iPhone 5 and the iPhone 5s is Siri. Now, anyone who can interpret this as wrong is above average with there technical knowledge. The iPhone 5c could be considered nothing more than a plastic iPhone. We know this is wrong. The iPhone 5c is the first phone to feature Apple's new A6 Chip.

 I think what we are all looking for, is the great anticipated technological breakthrough, that everyday people would notice, not just the super tech savvy people. When will Apple shoot back to its former place on the Top 10 as #1?

I think what we all want to see is Apple where it belongs.

California Artist mixes Sci-fi with U.S Government

San Francisco artist Jason Heuser has created some interesting pictures combining some of the United States's greatest presidents with my favorite genre; Science fiction. You can visit his deviantART page @ www.sharpwriter.deviantart.com 
He has recently gained a lot of attention. 13 of his art entries have been featured on FOX News. Here are a few of those entries..

Richard M. Nixon Fighting a Saber Tooth Tiger

This one is very interesting. For one thing, this makes the whole deal with Nixon Lying seem to be no big deal, he battled a saber tooth tiger for goodness sake! How many presidents get to say that? Obviously, this is just an illustration, but I think it gives "bravery" a whole new meaning. So, Richard Nixon. I love how the artist can make the character really cool and awesome, while keeping the characteristics in the character.

Zeus vs. Benjamin Franklin

I've seen this one before. I guess now we Know the real story behind Ben Franklin's invention of electricity. I mean really? Tying a key to a kite and somehow he experiences that 1 in a billion chance of lightning striking a key? This is way more realistic.

:)

This one is very cool. It combines the world of Tron, with the 18th century. Even though the first Tron looked like it was maid in the 18th century. Here we see Paul Revere riding a lightcycle. This is probably a lot faster than the horse that he rode. Also, I love that the destination is Lexington, (obviously, but that its stated right on the grid. If you look in the top left, it says that his patriotism levels are really high.

Talk about creativity. Anyway, check out SharpWriter's webpage, he has so many other really good pieces of art.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Watch-With-Me session Tonight at 8pm ET

As you may know, Marvel's new TV series, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premiers tonight. I decided to do something special for the first modern live action Marvel TV series. I'm launching a  new page, which will be under the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. WWM" tab. It's the same URL, so its not a completely different blog. Pretty much what I'm going to be doing is recording down some of my thought, ideas, and recent happenings on the show live right on that tab. Feel free to watch the show, and follow along with my ideas on this blog. If you have a delay, and can't follow my thoughts, its always fun to look back and see questions that have already been answered, and see what I was feeling at that specific moment in time. The show is going to be epic, which means I won't actually be posting during the actual show, I will, however be posting my questions during the commercials. If the answer to a question is revealed, than I will post during the show. I would also post during the show if Something really amazing happened or something epic that can't wait to be talked about. Spoilers will be revealed, so don't read this as a backup to the show if you can't watch it. I guess that pretty much wraps up what I have to say. Lets enjoy the new show together.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Premieres tonight (Tuesday, September 24th) at 8/7c and ends at 9/8c. I would highly recommend kids secretly watching it from a mobile device if they have to go to bed. Who needs school? This is going to be awesome!

Also, If you want to comment with your ideas, feel free, but there is absolutely no obligation to do so. I know when your watching TV you really don't want to stop what your doing do right out your whole thought. I would not be surprised or sad if there aren't any comments. That just means you are too amused in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Which makes me happy. :)

Review: Logitech m325 Wireless Mouse

For a long time I've has a mouse with a wire sticking out the front, it wasn't very good for gaming, it squeaked, and it overall wasn't a very good mouse, or at least not anymore. I decided that I was sick of it, especially after playing Minecraft with it for eight months. I just recently got a hold on a really nice one from OfficeMax. I wanted a really high quality mouse, and i didn't really find the right mouse at Walmart or anywhere. I know a lot about technology but I don't know the exact name of every mouse brand out there. That would be weird, but I found a really nice one with great sensitivity and reception, a Logitech m325. It is really easy to install, all you need is a USB plug and your pretty much good to go. I remember seeing one somewhere that has a whole separate reception box or something that would be a waste of time hooking up.

This mouse comes with, well, the mouse, and the USB unifying receiver. As you can see, the receiver is barely visible. This is especially nice with a laptop. However, the mouse is also smaller so may take time to get use to, trackball mouses in particular.

The many functions of this mouse make it more user-friendly. It is also really nice to use when browsing the Internet. On most older mouses, the scroll bar was used to scroll up and down a page in multiple ways. Now, you can go forward or back a page by tilting the scroll bar from left to right. However, this does not decrease the time it takes to load the previous or next page. In case you didn't know, that all relies on your internet speed. The Logitech m325 makes a great gaming mouse. Playing minecraft with this thing is great. scrolling through items in your utility bar is now way faster, THis mouse will automatically set your sensitivity about 30% percent higher, I have no idea why. And also, Idon't know if this is just a me thing, but my mouse booted up my framerate by about 15 frames, so if that's all mouses, than, well, that's a plus.

I think I've just about covered everything I need to about this product. These are all of my thoughts, I'm not leaving anything out. This mouse is easily a 9.5/10

A Screenshot Tour of MY Minecraft Survival World

You've been living in the shadows for so long. Finally, you get a tour of my minecraft house. Let's go!

This is a top view of my Minecraft house. I live in a desert temple, in the middle of three biomes! It took me about 6 months to completely update and modernize the desert temple to feel like home.

Here's the front view. It's awesome. I have a mob watchtower, a basement (unseen), and enough room for my horses to walk around inside.

lol. I have a Nether Portal. And in my free time I search for a stronghold. My house isn't the only impressive part of my world. As you can see below. I created a unique piston garden. unlike Sethbling or Antvenom. I created pressure plates that I walk across, and pistons push the fruit out into water and hoppers on either sides. It's fully functional and is a great way to get food. especially during a long night of hunting. The hardest part is coacoa beans. but they take 3 minutes at max.

It's a lot of fun. And when I get a lot of bonemeal. I can get stacks of crops in minutes.

This was my old house. It was nice and all, but it didn't meet all my needs and expecrations that were required for my house.Don't worry, I play survival legit. This was when I took screenshots in creative to get better angles. This was before I knew about F1. I moved a total of 890876 blocks according to my F3 menu. I did some legit math.I took my ender chest and my diamonds and went out for a fresh start. I blew up this house before I left. for sentimental reasons. I didn't want to be tempted to find my way back. I survived. and so did my 10 cats and 1 wolf. That water thing in the front was a mob trap. I have a much more efficiant one now. Oh, and I actually has 34791 levels of xp. I tried to beat the survival record until i died without keepinventory on. I usually doon't play with keepinventory on. Like I said, I play legit.


I think taht pretty much wraps up my survival world. I'm pretty much living in flightless creative now. I have maybe 10 stacks of each resource. except diamond... I'm working on that

"Avengers: Age of Ultron" Special News: James Spader Cast as Ultron

Lincoln actor James Spader has just been cast as the major villain in "Avengers: Age of Ultron". We originally thought that  Vin Diesel was secretly cast as Ultron, until he was confirmed as the voice of Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy. I personally think that James Spader would be near the bottom of my casting list. I don't know who I would pick, but it wouldn't be him. But there is a lot more back-story behind this character. As Joss Whedon announced that they would be creating their own origin story completely unrelated to Ant-Man. So far we know that Tony Stark will create Ultron, and we know that JARVIS will have a big role in the film. "Movie detectives" from Geek Magazine came up with the idea that JARVIS will evolve into Ultron. We know that Ultron's body will still be made completely of Adamantium, the indestructible metal that Wolverine's claws and skeleton are made of. Thanos will still be in "The Avengers: Age of Ultron as a supporting villain. Thanos will also be the Major villain in Guardians of the Galaxy.

In conclusion, James Spader will be Ultron, and the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding, and to wrap up this wrap up, here are the release dates in the future of the MCU.

"Thor: The Dark World" November 8th, 2013

Superhero News Wrap-Up 8.25.13

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. gets closer and closer to airing. Will you be watching? Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premieres Tuesday, September 24, @8:00 pm ET on ABC. We are all looking forward to figuring out how and why Agent Coulson is still alive. Unfortunately, that will not be revealed in the Pilot. But that only makes us want to watch this new series even more.

In a different universe, all rumors have been put to rest because Ben Affleck is going to be the all new Batman in Man of Steel 2. He will portray an older and more tech savvy Batman, but still remain in Christopher Nolan's Universe. In a way, Christian Bale is passing down the torch, to "Bat Affleck", let's hope for the best. I personally think Ben Affleck will be a terrible Batman, considering he already ruined Daredevil, and how many people these days want every actor who's ever played a superhero to do it again as a different hero. Chris Even's is already The Human Torch and now Captain America, Ryan Reynolds was Deadpool but NOPE! Not enough, He was also Green Lantern. And he ruined both of them. I have High hopes for Ben Batfleck, But I highly doubt they will come true.

In other news, Joseph Gordon-Levitt has not said anything about returning as Nightwing/Robin. But we have to remember that Batman vs. Superman is a Man of Steel Sequel, but a Batman sequel, so a Nightwing absence wouldn't exactly be a shock.

Back to the Marvel world. If you haven't already read Infinity #1, I recommend that you do. Infinity is a Marvel Comic 6-Part Event Series that just began less than 2 weeks ago. Beginning with Infinity #1. My review should be right below this post so I'm not going to link it. Infinity #2 Cover reveal is old news, but official images of Parts 3 and 4 are floating around Google Images. 

Other than that, Kick-Ass 2 was terrible, Universal announced that they own the rights to Namor, and that Batman franchise lives on because Beware the Batman, Cartoon Network's new hit series is becoming one of the stations most watched shows.

That's all for now, Thanks for reading and all the amazing comments.

Marvel’s Infinity #1 Review

I was able to pick up a copy of this new comic on release day. It took me a week to gather my thoughts on it. I was actually really excited ever since I got the Infinity Preview at during Free Comic Book Day last May. Once I got my hands on it, I could tell it was going to be epic. Jim Cheung’s art and Mark Morales colors made the event more exciting. I also have to say that in my opinion, the Infinity story was/is Jonathan Hickman’s Masterpiece. I read it a few times and had to make up my mind. That’s why it took almost a week to write this review. I haven’t read the Tie-ns yet, by I hate to say that they probably aren’t nearly as good as this. Avengers and New Avengers are excellent series, so I expect great things. I haven’t read a single Thunderbolts, Captain Marvel or Avengers Assemble. I could easily see Marvel’s Infinity replace Marvel Now. Then I would think that The New 52 is going down! I want to see more of these movie-like storylines in the future. That’s why I can’t wait until September 4^th, the release of Infinity #2. I’m hoping and expecting another round of Hickman and Cheung, along with the amazing talents they bring to the Comic Event. Whenever I do a review, I like to put one of thise Blue-Ray cover quotes. Obviously this will never go anywhere but it’s funny doing it.

I have not Given up On You!

It has been almost 2 weeks since I've posted anything. I want to just take a brake. Just maybe for another week. I might post a few things, but just because I'm winding down from summer. Cubed, I promised to do it all summer. But I need a break. It WILL happen monthly during the school year.

Cubed: July 29th! (Late)

Unfortunately, do to unexpected trouble with my computer, I am no longer able to download mods. Which kind of sucks. Hopefully I will be able to regain that extension soon. I can still play Minecraft, I still have my Hawkeye skin, and I still have connection to servers an what not. I am just "modless" at the moment.
Anyway, how about some positive talk.
Before I get started. I want to apologize for the huge gaps between the picturesand the texts. There is some kind of bug in the post-editing code or something.
Like usual, I start out with a skin. Usually something new on the skindex or something I found creative, but not creative mode (terrible Minecraft jokes. Ignore)! This time, I decided to do something different. I decided to do a YouTuber skin. You may know him, you might not, but since he's in between unknown and famous om the popularity charts, I decided that maybe this vould get him some more recognition.
Even though you already saw the skin and I'm treating this like a video where you haven't seen
 anything yet. Please welcome, BASHUR!!!!
 
I'm not a huge fan of Bashur, I don't hate him. I just hardly watch his videos. I thought this was a unique skin. Obviously, this dude's a melon... wearing 3D glasses... covered in grape-stained clothes...GOOD JOB BASHUR!

The next thing here is Starship U.S.S Enterprise from Star Trek, in MINECRAFT!





Like I said, sorry for the giant gaps. Anyway, this is kind of an old picture. From Beta 1.8.1 This still is a super awesome creation. Unfortunately, this doesn't look like it has any interior significance. I still think this is awesome. How muck can you expect from this user? It has a docking station, and looks pretty accurate to the Enterprise from the movies and TV!

Virus City! Updates: 7.28.13

What's up guys. I recently ran 4 systems to make my computer run faster. First of all, there were a few problems, most of them were viruses. Okay, all of them were viruses. And by a few I mean 169. Yeah, I thought I was tech savvy but that numbers proves otherwise. I had 169 Viruses running through my computer. Funny enough, that effected my Minecraft. I really boosted my FPS. My Quicktime media player, that also had a virus, so now I have a bunch of fixed dealios with that. So I guess you could say that my computer was a small community for viruses.
Pretty NUTS!

Review: iHome iHM60LY 3.5mm Aux Portable Speaker

Today I'm review something new. I've never reviewed a piece of media or technology before on this blog. So I decided to try. This is an iHome Speaker that I've had for about 8 months now. It's probably the best portable speaker that you will ever get. It can fit right in your briefcase or pocket, and makes amazingly clear noise. This is starting to sound like an infomercial so I'll slow down. The iHM60LY 3.5mm Aux Portable Speaker is a great speaker that works really well and is very convenient. The device has many uses, and can make your amateur home movie experience boost to the next level. It works great for both music and movies. In other words, all types of media. For example, you can connect multiple speakers together to really make some noise. You can also connect your headphones or whatever to your iHome raising the volume max. On any Apple product, it raises the max volume by at least 6 bars. The speaker can be charged while in use, so you don't need to wait for your device to be charged up. It's definitely one of the loudest speakers I've ever experienced. I always take this with me on vacations. It's really light too. It probably looks light, but I consider that a benefit because some people use those surround sound speakers that are giant chord messes on the floor. just 3 of these is pretty much equivalent to a movie theater. Okay not really, but close.They are also really not all that expensive. I got mine for $20 at Walmart. Go out and bye it, use it, and never regret it! The last thing awesome about this speaker is that a small red light will go on when your speaker isn't charged. The light will be blue when it is in use or when it is charged. Speaking of batteries, it has great battery life. You can watch 3 or for movies before you neen to connect it to a device for charging. But yeah, cou can connect it to your laptop or iPad or anything and it will automatically be charging. 

Tip: Watch J.J. Abrams' Star Trek with 2 of these.

Like almost all iHome speakers, they connect to your phones and tablets and iPods and stuff like that. Like you couldn't tell by the text features that you could. Overall, this is a great product, I almost consider this perfect. I can't find anything wrong with it.

Thanks for reading hopefully it wasn't written like an infomercial.

Cubed: July 22nd!

Welcome back to Monday's Cubed! I decided, since I love writing Cubed during the week, I would keep doing it after Summer ends. With Summer about half-way over, I wasn't happy that Cubed was half way over. So CUBED WILL CONTINUE!!

The First thing today is another skin. On the skindex it's called Not_a_Creeper. I'm not sure that's true...

†hi is a really funny skins. It's not very creative but it's original and humorous. People always get ripped if they have the Steve skin. This is funny because It's pretty much a creeper pretending to be Steve. That's pretty neat. You can tell it's a disguise because of the strap along the head. Thus it's a mask. I've seen some masks. But they're not as creative. Like a Steve Skin with a Beast Boy mask. If you haven't been playingMinecraft for a long time you probably wouldn't know who Beast boy was. Was this weird character that randomly spawned n your single-player worlds. Kind of like Herobrine. Also like Herobrine, Beast Boy was removed from Minecraft.

The Next thing is a painting of An Iron Golem. While you look at this picture you may find yourself feeling sad for Iron Golems. Considering well, they don't get they're own spawn egg, are always being forced to kill the stuff around it, and are often left in very confined gardens.

 This is a great picture. It really captures the feel what an Iron Golem's life really is. I can't just post this amazing image without credit to the creator.
All rights go to Tom Harrison. He's done some awesome Minecraft Fan-Art and has even been featured at Minecon. You can check out his wordpress website here. I don't actually know him but I do know that his work is truly Amazing. He's drawn ships and aliens and of course, Minecraft. Does anyone else want to shut down this internet launcher, go open your Minecraft launcher, and go use a pumpkin and 4 iron blocks to create your own Iron Golem. This reminds me, before I had my 2 horses, Aztec and Joey, I made my own Iron Golem and named him Wilson. He died because
1. He was attacked by at least 7 creepers,
2. he was trapped in a 3x3 glass container.

yeah, the Glass and Creepers aren't a good combo. Creepers usually win.


That's all for this week. I'll do my best to have one posted next Monday. Maybe I can get some 1.6 stuff in there. Maybe. Thanks for reading!

The Avengers 2 Titled The Avengers; Age of Ultron

Stan Lee Says a Silver Surfer movie will EVENTUALLY Happen

Comic Book Legend Stan Lee has been working at Marvel for a really long time now. Over that period of time, he's Invented Spider-Man, most of The Avengers, and hundreds of they're villains. Not even Frank Millar can say that. He's had cameos in almost all of the Marvel movies, written hundreds of Comics, and managed to become the most successful comic book writer ever. He's had a say or two for many marvel movies. But this time, the case is The Silver Surfer, we don't exactly know what he's got up his sleeve. He said a Silver Surfer movie will happen, eventually. Silver Surfer is part of the Fantastic Four Franchise, so the rights would go to 21st Century Fox

Zack Snyder announced a Superman/Batman team-up film at 2013 Comic-Con!

Zack Snyder announced a Superman/Batman team-up film at 2013 Comic-Con! That's all I need to say, now go poop yourself or run around like a wild idiot nerd!

Open Discussion #10: Batman/Superman Movie: Why Should it Happen?

The first Superman / Batman comic was very successful. I wonder if a movie would also be successful? Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy was very successful, so was Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. It's obvious that many people like Superman and Batman. Would it just be crazy to have our two favorite superhero team-up? It would probably be the best DC team up movie since Watchmen. Unfortunately no plans are made for that to happen. But we can all dream! So, for this post, I am going to do a bunch of Batman / Superman movie talk. First of all, who would direct? Zack Snyder did an amazing job of directing Man of Steel, but I think that for either Man of Steel 2, The Justice League, or Batman / Superman, I think there should be someone new. I'm sure that Christopher Nolan would do a great job of bringing Batman and Superman together on the big screen. I also think that Tom Welling could do the same. After all, he has played Superman for 10 years in the show Smallville and has directed part of the 10th season.

Does anyone agree. I think that wraps up the 10th Open Discussion. I've noticed that this is only number ten when I've been doing this blog for 7 months. I hope to get back on track soon.

:)


Sorry it's late.

Back from Vacation, Cubed Still Happening and Stuffs - Updates 7.18.13

What'd up dudes, Welcome me back. I would've welcomed you back, but I'm the one who was gone. If you Didn't know, I've been on vacation for the last week and a half. I managed to get internet connection so I wan't completely screwed. I sat down and wrote a review that was published on Friday, I also posted the Backed up Post I wrote before I left.
I had a great vacation. I relaxed a lot. I finished a book and am currently reading another. After I finished Marvel Civil War by Stuart Moore, I decided to read Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card. I figured that since the Ender's Game Movie was coming out, I might read the Parallel book. Parallel meaning same story told from a different character's perspective. I couldn't find Ender's Game so Shadow would Have to do. After all, The used book store I got it at was small. That was the book that I got on vacation. Civil War was from my library. I also got two other library books thinking I could read all of them. NOPE! Not Possible.

In other news. I know it's been 2 weeks since a Cubed Post. Thee will be one this week. Just wanted to point that out. Monday...

Anyways, I'm Back.

Oo La La

Review: Marvel's Civil War by Stuart Moore

This isn't a back up post. I actually Just Finished Marvel's Civil War by Stuart Moore. You May know that I'm on vacation right know and I've been doing a lot of reading. This book was a very "blogsworthy" novel, it especially fits the theme of this blog. So I decided to review it.

You may have heard of Civil War by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven. It was a great comic mini-series. It changed The Marvel Universe completely. It sold over 250,000 copies per issue. Of course, when something gets that popular, someone else has to do it to try and to get popular. That's Not the case here. Civil War by Stuart Moore is a Novel Adaption of the great work by Millar and McNiven. The Book is about 300 pages long and has about 30 chapters.

In the story, the age of heroes has been dying.   J. Jonah Jameson, the editor of the Daily Bugle has issued a forced registration of all the Heroes and their powers. Iron Man thinks it's a bad idea, but yet necessary step, while Captain America thinks its a hideous assault on America's Freedom. And So comes a Civil War.  Captain America and His Team vs. Iron Man and His team. All of the Avengers, some Guardians of the Galaxy, stand alone heroes, and even Villains are forced to take sides. The Fantastic Four, The Avengers, everyone. The X-Men are pretty much trapped inside the walls of their own school. The Thunderbolts think that they're their own team. The world of Evil brakes loose. And the battleground: America!

Overall this is a great book. The pacing is good. There's some Mild Language like there was in the comics. Not like how language ruined the Transformers Franchise. some of the ending is a bit questionable. But this is still an interesting, fun, edge of your seat book.

(I know that sounds like a movie, but I really felt that way). I would not recommend this book for Marvel newbies or big fans of The classic Marvel Masterworks.       3.5 Stars!

I want to do one of those DVD Cover style quotes Like I did for Man of Steel.

          "Epic! Stuart Moore is an Amazing Storyteller!"

Books! Vacation! Books!

I am on vacation today, this isn't a backed up post. I have internet connection so I decided to do some blogging. I have done a lot of Reading. During the next week, I want to read at least 1 the following titles.

• Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card.
• Star Wars: Darth Plagueis by James Luceno
• The Mammoth Book of Science-Fiction Wars

I hope to review all of these books soon!

Later Today I will post a Review of Civil War by Stuart Moore

Justice League Dark Moving Forward, Guillermo del Toro Explains Some Hero Origins for the Movie

Pacific Rim Director Guillermo del Toro has been jabbering about Justice League Dark movie. There isn't a release date for the movie yet because Warner Bros., the studio that owns the rights to all DC Films and TV Series (excluding Smallville Seasons 6-10). He recently announced during an interview with Screenrant that he will be sticking to the mythology of the characters.

“Monsters! More monsters. When I was following the DC comics in my youth, my favorites were Swamp Thing, [Etrigan the] Demon, Deadman … My earliest love was Constantine, and I love Zatanna, Destiny, the whole mythology. So we’re working on a really rich mythological environment.”

The Film's Script is in moderation right now. But I trust Guillermo del Toro's script because look how awesome The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey turned out, and I'm interested to see how the script will deliver in the next two movies. I am still concerned about the whole "Justice League Dark before Justice League" thing. I mean, The Justice League Dark is a whole lot more possible than an original Justice League movie. One of the things that makes The Justice League Dark, well, dark is that their superpowers are supernatural, and if there's one thing I learned from the special features of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man, it's that science-based powers are friggin' hard to deliver!

With Christian Bale "out" for the role of Batman in Justice League, The movie is pretty much doomed. It could have given Bale another chance to drop the dorky voice that sounds like Cookie Monster on Steroids. Plus, he's like the coolest Bruce Wayne ever! You can't make a Justice League Movie without Green Lantern, and Ryan Reynolds probably out because no one liked him in Green Lantern. It could give him a second chance.

The Only reason DC's going for this is because of Marvel's The Avengers. Justice League will be at the same place it is today by the time The Avengers 3 is out on DVD (If DVD even exists by then.)! That's why Justice League Dark is a very good choice. Critics might not like it but I personally think it's a smart choice. It could be the best "Second-Chance" movie of the decade. It could be a big success. Just in the last 7 or 8 years DC's started blowing up. Marvel's been at it for quite a while. Usually with almost never-ending success. DC, has been finite success-wise. Just until Batman Begins. Anyway, Good work del Toro, good work DC, I have to get out of here.

Hey before I finish typing I want to say that not as much content will be posted for the this week and a half. Not that big of a deal for me and I don't think it is for you either. I'm gone on vacation so, there might not be a review, but it's alright. This is a backed up post from last week so I don't know. I can't predict the Future. I'm not Marvel Girl. I'm not a Girl at all thank you very much.

Minecraft Adventure: Joey and Aztec

It's been so long since I've done a Minecraft Adventure. I've been so busy. It's on the schedule so I want to get back on track with these. This time, we have horses. as you know, 1.6.1 came out today, check it out if you play Minecraft. I decided to go on a search for some horses to call mine. I got really lucky by finding 2. 1 was a grey/black horse, (not a donkey) and the other was a dark brown. I have mentioned it before but I live in a desert temple. I originally spawn inside a desert temple that was right in the middle of three biomes, desert, winter, and plains. I gathered the resources from the temple and realised that my home was built for me. Several modifications were needed, but now my house is a super desert temple. Back to what I was saying. 2 horses, black and brown. The brown one I named Joey and the second one I named Aztec. I had several saddles from dungeons and armor from creative mode (sort of cheating). I gave Joey Diamond armor, making him a War Horse. Aztec I gave gold armor just because it looked cool, even though it won't last long. Since my home is so big, I now let my horses roam free around my mega-temple. It may seem feminine of me but at least they don't poop.

Thanks for reading. Comment if you want More Minecraft Adventures!

Injustice 2: How Should it Happen?

Injustice: Gods Among Us is a massive success. It's obvious that NetherRealm will make a sequel. Even though Injustice doesn't have an acceptable storyline, a sequel would be a good way to draw in more money. Us gamers would be able to see new backgrounds, new characters and different versions of the characters. A sequel wouldn't be possible for 7th gen gaming consoles, if there was, it woud probably already be big buzz news. With high hopes on the PS4, not so much the XBox One, but the PS4, Injustice 2 would be a good way to help spread the word about next gen consoles. But what would it be called?

Injustice: Heroes Rising? That was my first idea. It has to be something original. No one would of thought of Gods Among Us if the guy at DC Entertainment didn't think of it.  I've noticed that the title doesn't mention anything about heroes. It does't say "DC Entertainment presents: Superheroes! Gods Among Us.
Or what about changing the "justice" but keeping the "in". Like Cconsider calling it "Insurgance: Heroes Rising.

Does anyone agree with me???????????

Cubed: July 1st!

June is finished, July is here!

     1.5.2 is finished, 1.6 is here!

Yes. Today Minecraft 1.6 is released to the public. The new update features leads, hay, Coal Blocks, Mules, Donkeys, Foals, and of course, HORSES!

Finally horses. I would have expected it earlier on, maybe even as early as Beta 1.7 But It's finally here. As epic as it is, I won't be reviewing any 1.6-related things today. That comes later, when everyone adjusts to 1.6

The first thing to be discussed today is a new skin. It's Called EnderBrine.

I have been seeing this skin all over servers and hangouts. Even though it's more Herobrine that Enderman, it's still pretty cool. Can Someone PLEASE add him to 1.7 or something!?!

Next up we have Fan Art of a zombie by Dmitry Burmak

I can tell that he put a lot of work into this either by hand or digitally. It really gives a new experience to staying up at night in Minecraft. Especially because the image has multiple zombies. I can almost see what looks like a whole army of zombies.

Great Work Dmitry, I won't be going hunting anymore. I'll stick to the mob trap!

Last but certainly not least is a Giant alien Mothership from Independence Day.

I thought I'd choose this because It's the 4th of July this Thursday for those of you that live in the United states.

This is a creation by Crazy Zoo. All credit goes to him/her. It looks pretty darn awesome.

Well that's all for now, see you guys In two weeks. I'm on vacation next week. I have a post backed up if I get internet service.

Later

So Long Gandalf: Ian McKellen FINISHES his Role as Gandalf :,(

Today, Sir Ian McKellen wrapped his last shot as Gandalf the Grey/White. For 15 years he portrayed the role. Peter Jackson, the director of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings posted this picture of Ian and Peter soon after the Clapboard clicked for Ian's last time as that role.

Wow, I'm such a geek.
