It's a good time to be a 90's kid (Avenger's 2 and Ukulele)
10 years ago
Greetings So the past week has been pretty huge for me; I'm going to stick to two main topic but no promises, it's nearly 4AM for me and I'm wide awake.
So the first thing I have to talk about since it's up there in the title is Avenger's 2: Age of Ultron I'll try to stay out of spoilers as best as I can. Now a quick shout out Reimaru-kun and Mykul for inviting me to join them, you guys rock. Now if you where to go back in time and ten year old me that my favorite tv characters where going to be in a massive movie together and they would be in them twice I would have had my mind blown seeing ponies and ninja turtles together. Then correct me that it's my favorite Marvel heroes that are doing this then my hype train would have rocketed out of the station. Now I love Marvel super heroes since they're so well written and I love them just as much out of their costumes as much as in them.
Getting back on focus Avenger's 2: electric boogaloo was well worth the wait. Those of you who really enjoyed seeing the characters just interacting with each other in the first one won't be disappointed. The dialog and the delivery from each of the actors are just as great or better than the action scenes. I really loved how we got to see more on the two avengers we know little about through out cinematic universe and learn more about their past and lives. The action as high electrifying as previous Marvel movies. Watching the Tony's and Hulk's fight in the city was just as great as the final confrontation against Ultron. I also loved that though out these fights we got to see our heroes actually be heroes, taking time out of the battle to save civilians from the cross fire unlike a certain super hero in blue and red (I'm still sore at that). It was just an overall great time, though I feel a lot was cut out for the theatrical version. I just hope when the movie comes out on dvd we get access to a sort of director's cut.
With Avenger's out of the way I want to get to the one thing I've been excited for ever since it was first teased, Yooka-Laylee. Oh my god! The second I heard that that the developers behind my favorite Rare games where getting the band back together to create a true successor to collectathon games my eyes lit up like Christmas lights. Growing up through out the 90's I was a huge gamer, ever since my sister gave me her NES I can recall pushing buttons and making the screen lite up. So when I got my own console (SNES) the first few games I got where Mario world and Donkey Kong Country, and I played the hell out of them, loving the challenge and fun of the 16 bit era. Then once I took the jump to the third dimension I was glad to see Rare welcome me to Banjo-Kazooie. The two Banjo games really helped me develop my love of character driven games primarily Kazooie and her snarky, arrogant personality, and I think she's the reason why I like jerky types of characters. Again sorry for rambling, but I'm super excited to hear that brains of the former Rare are back at it with Yooka-Laylee.
Just watching Yooka and Laylee run around in the Alpha build of the game just brought back memories of the previous Banjo and oh god I wanted to toss them all my money just so that this game comes out soon. Luckily October 2016 isn't that far away, so I'll keep my trousers on till then. From what we've seen so far I feel this is the famed Banjo-Threeie that fans have been waiting for years to play, the characters look right, the movements seem perfect and the music is strikes all the right cues. Grant Kirkhope and David Wise are truly masters at making some of the best sounds in a game, I've been loving listening to two Jungle themes over and over again, even right now I'm listening to the one titled "Jungle Challenge". I'll have to make sure to get put in enough money in their Kickstart to pick up both a Wii U version of the game and the soundtrack to listen too while I'm on the go.
Well with enough fangasaming out of the way I think it's time for me to get some sleep. If people like these sort of journals let me know and I'll think of a few other topics to ramble on about.
Till next time, LunarNight.
