Cloverfield – Part 2
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008Dubiously, misleading headline. While no sequel for this year’s blockbuster, Cloverfield, has been announced – Quarantine is definitely worth a gander this fall and looks to take on both Cloverfield and I am Legend and combine the best of both.
From Crackle:
Look to add Quarantine to your movie schedule this fall.

Saturday, September 20th, 200824: Redemption
After sacrificing everything for his country, Jack Bauer (Sutherland) is wanted by the U.S. government and now stands to lose the only thing he has left: his freedom. Working as a missionary in Africa, Bauer is called upon to stop a ruthless warlord from drafting innocent children into his murderous militia. First, Bauer must confront his own torturous past and face an impossible decision that will change his life forever. A decision that will set the stage and raise the stakes for Season Seven, which debuts in January 2009.
You know you want it – just give in to Jack: He’s just that cool.

Guitar Hero goes ‘Christian’
Monday, September 22nd, 2008When I first played Guitar Hero, I have to admit that the first thing I told my friends was that “THEY should make a Praise and Worship edition. Well, they (actually somebody else) has done just that.
Now – I have to wonder out loud if this is going be questioned in the mainstream media.
GameSetWatch puts it best:
“The word Christian is, in the strict sense, a noun. It literally means somebody who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ. People get themselves in all manner of trouble when they turn the noun into an adjective to describe their work, community, bookshop, painting, tee shirt, video game or song.”
Are we separating ourselves and becoming ‘exclusive’ by branding ourselves away from the rest of society? I throw this out there because I agree with the comments above that the term “Christian” is, at its purest sense, a noun. In many ways – increasingly more so – the term Christian (or associated synonyms) are becoming adjectives, continuing to separate (and not bringing together) different (sub-)cultures in our modern society.
However, the selection of songs is quite interesting…
