Gute Idee, schlechte Umsetzung Peter Hyams’ A Sound of Thunder basiert auf einer vielversprechenden Kurzgeschichte von Ray Bradbury – eine faszinierende Zeitreise-Prämisse, die das fragile Gefüge von Ursache und Wirkung untersucht. Doch was hier auf der Leinwand abgeliefert wird, ist ein Mix aus mittelmäßiger Regie, katastrophalen Effekten und einer langweiligen…
Stephen Kings Dämonen erwachen zum Leben Mit Desperation gelingt Regisseur Mick Garris eine solide TV-Adaption des gleichnamigen Romans von Stephen King, die trotz beschränktem Budget die beklemmende Atmosphäre und das surreale Grauen der Vorlage weitgehend einfängt. Was Desperation auszeichnet, ist die Mischung aus klassischem Horror und einer nihilistischen Kleinstadt-Tragödie, wie…
Geduldig wie ein Buddha habe ich am Wochenende meine Fotos des Eric Clapton Konzerts auf flickr geladen, und natürlich Berichte geschrieben - den deutschen Bericht gibt es hier, den englischen hier. Geduldig, weil das Internet hier immer noch so lahm wie der Film Speed Demon ist und es vor Mitte Februar wohl auch nicht repariert sein wird.
I don't remember the exact year, but it must have been at least four or five years ago. Billy Crystal was the host of the academy awards that year and a hilarious clip was shown before the show or as advertisement: Billy Crystal goes to the cinema, buys a popcorn,…
Geez. What a woman! Daughter can rest after 10-year hunt A 25-year-old woman from Wanzhou in Chongqing Municipality has ended a 10-year search for the man who sold her mother and killed her father, delivering him to police custody in September. In 1992, Wang Wenlong, a farmer in Wanzhou, sold…
Reading about other's people computer and software is always fun, so why shouldn't I share my system information and software with you? Maybe nothing in this entry is new to you, but maybe you'll find something you didn't know before. Maybe you recently switched to Mac system and you want to know about cool software? Who knows! Let's get started. This is my setup, as in the picture above: I got a Apple PowerBook G4 with 17" from 2005 (yeah, I don't have the money to witch to a new system every year...), additionally I got a 250 Gigabyte sized external hard-drive from Maxtor, a Mighty Mouse, a Logitech headset for Skype and Sharp stereo boxes - for music, what else! What I do? I create web-sites (for fun, mostly), edit images, create video pod-casts and lots more.
Apple's new iPhone. Let's start saving!
Being 25 years old, you usually don't get a kick out of christmas anymore. Sure, it's nice to have that one special day that you can spend with your family, but let's be honest, it was way more fun when we were children and got presents and stuff. This year…
Now that I have a digital SLR camera with the Nikon D50, my hard drive space slowly goes down. Having only 5 Gigabyte left this morning, it was reason enough for me to go through my iTunes library to kick out albums I don't ever listen to anymore. That's always…
My passion for movies started back in the December of 1986. At the age of four, my dad took me to see Disney's The Great Mouse Detective in a cinema. Seeing an animated mouse on a big screen was more then fun, it was a groundbreaking experience for me. I…
