So now it's the warmest time of the year here. It's gotten to the point where you have the windows open all around the clock and when you sleep you can't have the sheet over you or the bed turns into a pool of sweat.
Yesterday I took a bikeride to the hospital to visit a friend who is hospitalized for beeing abused and his knee is basically a mess. Well my point is when I got there (it's about 8 km or something) I looked like I came out of a lake, that's how sweaty I was, or atleast on my back.
People always long for summer and so on, especially in Sweden where we only have like two-three warm months a year
and it's almost punishable by death to not be out in the sun on a nice day. I am one of those people who prefers
not beeing overheated and drenched i sweat so my favourite time of the year is the autumn when it starts getting a little cooler and it's actuallt enjoyable beeing outside.



But I am planing on a little longer bike-roadtrip in about two weeks. Since last year when I did military service I haven't been out in the nature and camping and all that like I used to do all year around back then. I like beeing out in the nature and so that is definitely something I want to do, atleast once this summer.

Speaking of military service, as I said before there is this music festival who's the biggest in all of sweden called Peace and Love and it's in a town 20 mins from where I live. Many of my old military buds are attending that so I went over there to see them again. When you spend every day of a whole year together you become good friends with many and so meeting them again was nice.

As I said before I don't know what you like to read. I switched over from a 100% movie concentrated blog to a little more personalized styled one. Not because anyone said something but because I was just tired of writing movie reviews (all the time) They will still be around though. But writing is like theraphy for me, I mostly write when I feel a little down.

Here is my favourite song right now so enjoy: Foo Fighters - Walk.

Hello everyone. I had a friend over for the past two days so I did stuff with him other than writing here but now he has gone to where he was headed in first place and so I get some time to spend here again.
We basically just chilled hard and watched movies and played guitar hero until our hands were sore.

I think I want to talk a little about the movies we saw because thay all were a bit spectacular.
The first movie we saw was Insidious which was like a mix of Paranormal activity and drag me to hell or something.
It had the same build-up as paranormal and was easily as scary but not as dragged out and all that and in the end it had a really intresting twist and ended up beeing a really nice movie in fact, which really suprised me.
You think it would be one of the "scary music leading up to a jumping cat" kind of movies but it's definitly not.
And maybe you also think it's all boring splatter like the saw movies because it's made by the writer and director of saw but this is a whole new level of just scariness and there wasn't a single drop of blood in the whole move that I can remeber.
One of the scariest movies ever and I can really recommend it.

Score 8 out of 10.




Then we watched "The Mechanic" Jason Stahams newest action/testosterone/ruthless killing/hitman-movie.
You probably know what kind of movies he likes to do and we love him for it, atleast I do because he rules.
He basically played a hitman who was forced to kill his only friend and then got screwed and then turned against his former "employer".
There were some parts who were very "hollywood" and a bit easy to foresee but in the end It was just enjoyable and fun to watch.

Score 7 out of 10 (mainly because Jason is the king)



And last but not least we watched "The Troll Hunter" an awesome Norwegian movie in the "blair-witch project" style about a group of school students who follow a troll hunter in the Norwegian woods chasing down trolls who step out of their territories. A really creative and fun movie, who knew the Norwegians could make such awesome movie magic.
Sure the movie is a bit budget and the special effects were not always a 100% but it made up for that in suspense and mood-setting. All the diffrent trolls were also just exiting to witness and it felt like a mix between a virtual safari and a vampire movie (he killed them by flashing them with UV-light turning them into stone).
Probably the best low-budget movie I have ever seen, you should all check it out, it is the definition of awesomness.

Score 7,5 out of 10






That's all folks. see you next time :)

You reades are indeed a mystery. For the past few days I have not been writing about anything in particular, just what was on top of my head and what I felt like writing about. You are still visiting it seems so why not then.
Maybe I'll put in a movie review in the future again but that's got to be when I really feel like writing one.
Super 8 though, the first movie in a long time that I was quite dissapointed with. It tried to be so much that it wasn't and it all became a bad mess. But enough about that allready.

The biggest music festival in Sweden is the "Peace and Love" festival. I'm looking forward to it, not because I want to see any of the artists or anything, in fact I don't even have a ticket. Well that's strange you think but the reason I'm looking forward to it is that I live just a few minutes away from the city where it is held and so many of my old friends are goin g to be there, which means I get to see them again. Friends from far places so that's always nice.

As of lately I have been listening alot to foo fighters. Their latest album wasting light is really good in my oppinion.
They are by the way playing like tomorrow here in sweden so if I had been a consert guy maybe I would have attended that or the Linkin Park consert that was like last week. The place I enjoy listening to music the most is the car.
There is nothing like driving around town to the tunes of your favourite songs, it almost feels like an interactive music video or something. Beats any loud and sweaty consert beside some drunk teenager, that's what I think atleast.

Take care folks!

Ok so Ryan Dunn is officially dead, yes I say officially because of all the rhumors beeing spread that it is a hoax.
There is even a pictures beeing spread that claims to be a fox news article where Ryan says its a joke and so on but I checked the fox news website myself and there it said that he really is dead.
The strangest part was that the night before hearing about it I watched jackass 3,5 (the extra material from the jackass 3D movie).

I grew up watching jackass and all the spinoffs. I remember going to like 7th grade and watching jackass on MTV every night. Even to this day I still like the movies and all that so Ryan Dunn and all of the other guys almost feel like old friends, in a weird sense.

Here is the thing though, Ryan Dunn drowe drunk and killed himself and also a buddy of his.
Yes he was a celebrity and very liked but what he did is in my oppinion the defenition of irresponsibleness,
he killed another person who was also loved and had friends/relatives by drinking and driving.

Yes I will miss him and Jackass won't be the same without him but imagine if it was your friend or sibling or something who sat in that car with him, that would be a whole diffrent story.

I joined a facebook group though which I found a bit funny, it's called: "God if you give us Ryan Dunn back we will give you Justin Bieber"


So that's my thoughts on the whole and if there is a lesson to be learned from this it is "don't drink and drive"
He will be missed though.




PS: I really want this shirt, I think it's quite clever but for most people it's only confusing.
Anybody who gets it?

Hello, just felt like writing something random. It's 02.40 in the morning and what can you say other than "bad sleeping habits are bad" But oh well I have nothing in the morning to attend to so why not sit here and waste time instead.
I don't know if I'm the only one who does this but when I get bored i have like three websites that I usually visit every day and then I flip between them like zapping on the tv. One is Youtube where I look for new videos from guys I'm subscribed to and then I look at facebook and maybe to some other site and then back to youtube in like ten minutes.
Yes folks, that's how intresting my life is.

Atleast I had a wonderful time with my friends past night and today where we celebrated a birthday and ate cake and paddled canoe and swam in the cold lake and then sat in the sauna. Yeah basically had a great time.
This is also something I typically do, when you are having a sleepover and you are about to sleep you suddenly get
all lively and end up talking to each other for like 1,5 hours. This is typically where the best kind of humor
comes from, laughing our guts out from seriously bad word-jokes and so on. Great times.

Yeah so that's that. I guess I'll talk to you later.




Word to that.

I saw Limitless today but I'm fed up with writing movie reviews, bloging shouldn't be something you do because you have to, atleast that's how I feel and lately some reviews I have to admit have been forced out. I don't even know if you guys like reading them or what because I get no response whatsoever. The only comment I have gotten from like the last year or so have been from friends of mine. No one has liked the facebook page either so shall I presume you don't like reviews?

I want this to be a give and take thing, a dialog between me and my readers. So far it has been a quite
lonely monologe and it's not very easy for me to shout at nothing and keep my motivation going.
So if there are less and less posts here you know why. If you want me to write new stuff tell me about it and I will happily oblige, maybe I'll even get my motivation back.


So now you know, until next time take care.

This is a picture I made for the iridiscent artwork contest Just thought I'd share it to you guys for fun.




Wasn't super hard to make but I liked how it turned out. Just playing with colours
and so on. Hope you like it.

Well I don't know why Paul Bettany always does the movies with the religous themes and why he always plays the lunatics but this is another of them.

There has been a war raging between humanity and the vapires for many centuries. At first mankind had a really hard time withstanding these unholy creatures but then came the "priests" Trained to kill vampires like farmers kill pigs they alone turned the tides of the war and the vampires almost went extinct.
The priest were put back into a society that no longer needed them, forced to work as janitors and so on.

But the vampires are returning stronger than maybe ever. The church denies this so the priest sets out on a journey on his own to seek out the truth and to find his vampire-abducted daughter and by doing so breaking his church vows and becoming an outlaw and criminal himself.




The most annoying aspect of the movie for me was that every actor was famous enough to be recognized but not from where. This resulted in my head almost exploding trying to figure out where they came from.
It turnes out the bad guy is Eomer from the Lord of the Rings, the sheriff is the boyfriend from the Roommate and he also starred in twillight. The "high priest/bishop" is charles widmore from lost. There you have it so that you don't have your head melt during the movie.

The movie in itself wasn't very innovative, you could easily relate to other vampire movies and I just wasn't impressed. The action was of course overexeggurated but the special effects were quite bad and looked from time to time very unnatural. Over all the movie was a bit of a letdown, not because the movie was worse than other movies from the same genres, but because it didn't stand out.

I'll give it a few plusses though for not beeing dull and for trying to be cool and innovative.
An ok movie if you are into the genre but otherwise I would definitly not recommend it.


The score for Priest is 4 out of 10.

So I've been to a gaming convention over the past five days to just have fun and hang out with some buddies.
But here I am again so let's get down to business.

It seems since I started writing in english I have been getting visitors from all over the world. I suppose you all come from google by chance but anyhow I have never had this many visitors so for that reason alone I will continue writing in english. If you are a reader from a country other than sweden pleas leave a comment or so on how you came upon this blog and what you think about it. I'm just curious.



As I said before I have been away the past days doing other stuff than watching movies and tv so there will be no review of anything today. If you have a suggestion for something I should watch/review you can also put that in the comments below this entry.

So that's it for today, just wanted you guys to know I'm still alive and breathing.


Also enjoy this sick guitar-techno :)
