About Me
Well hello. My name is Ron, and yes i'm a nerd. Always have been always will be. Video games are my life. Without them i would probably be, I don't know outside playing sports, or doing something "constructive". I play action, adventure, survival horror, first person shooters, and just about anything else to raise my achievement score. At one point I was really big into rpgs, mainly the more obscure American releases. Now I prefer games that I can play in short bursts without having to worry about a long story to remember. And by short bursts I mean 4 -5 hours. I am an achievement whore. Can't stop won't stop. I like too many games, but if I had to choose a favorite I would have to say Dead Rising. On a hard day nothing brings a smile to my face quite like running over hundreds of the undead in a car, with the hood down. Then hoping out and killing more with my mega buster.

When I'm not playing games, I'm either on Myspace screwing around there, on Facebook screwing around there, or with friends. I enjoy going to the movies, hanging out, and going on adventures. Movies take up the second largest chunk of my life. I have a very odd taste in movies. mainly if the movie has something I really like or enjoy I label it as good. This is why I like movies like Daredevil, The One, House of the Dead, etc. But my friends trust my advice on films for the most part. If i don't like it you know it's bad. I'm actually in the process of trying to buy every single video game based movie. I'm only missing a few. Hopefully Hollywood keeps on crapping them out.

Now all that crap I take in from movies and games isn't wasted. I actually have a very good imagination. My only downfall is i need motivation to use it. One day i will find my calling in this world. Until then I'm going to keep raising my achievement score until Microsoft has no choice but to acknowledge me and give me a cookie.

see Punisher Warzone. This movie felt like the stupidly fun version of Batman: The Dark Knight. Now before anyone has a freaking stroke. I'm not saying it was as good as Batman or even close, in the story, plot, or dialogue department. But you will be on the edge of your seat waiting for what comes next. The action, the violence is the main draw here. I mean what more could you expect from a movie based on a "superhero" that just runs around killing everyone that so much as farts in his general direction?

Now if you still can't tell, I really enjoyed the movie. Don't listen to the reviews or anyone for that matter that says it is a bad movie unless it sounds like this. The movie wasn't that great, BUT, when he starts killing you forget you are watching a bad movie. To me, everything worked well here. I liked the cast, they all played their parts well. But really, this wasn't a movie created to win any Oscars, or to mark a new chapter in film making history. The story was straight forward, but entertaining. But it was really only there to place a name with the bodies, and to give an explanation as to why they are dying. Ray Stevenson does a good jo or portraying the trouble, psychopathic Frank Castle on his one man war against crime. Dominic West plays the main antagonist Jigsaw. You also have Doug Hutchison as Jigsaw insane brother, Newman a.k.a Wayne Knight, and Dexter's Julie Benz. This lady stays busy. She is in everything nowadays.

Anyway, no one is really going to watch this movie for the stars, and fewer are going to watch it for the story. The real reason people will be going to see this is for the over the top violence, which Lionsgate films is known for. To get a better understanding of how violent this movie is, go play Fallout 3, then level up so you can get the Bloody Mess perk. Shoot someone in the face at point blank range with a shotgun, and you will understand what I mean. Most of the deaths are just unexpected and in your face. Me and my friend have this thing we do, where we give names to particular death animation in games, or on film. I don't want to ruin anything for anyone by describing them, so I will remain quiet. But by far the best one in the movie is The Last Parkour a.k.a The Unexpected.

Overall Punisher: Warzone is a fun movie, and is worth watching. Guys should go in groups to fully enjoy this because you will be pumped after watching it, plus it will be fun going over your favorite kills in the movie. On a side note, don't take your girlfriend, unless you want to watch Sister Hood of the Traveling Pants 3 later on down the road, because most"normal" girls are not going to like this movie. But for it's action, black comedy, and over the top violence I give it 4 bullet holes out of 5.

I'm sorry, but the clips and trailers make the movie out to be complete shit. Frank Castle hanging from a chandelier, spinning and shooting people? Are you fucking serious?

This movie is not shit. Yeah the whole spinning from the chandelier looked silly, but once again it's in a movie about a man who just kills people, and its based off a comic book about a man who just kills people. Besides everything he does before he gets to the spinarooni part lowers the silly value of it. DAMNIT HE USES AN AoE ATTACK ON A GROUP OF THUGS.

I can't imagine a Punisher movie not being a bit over the top and silly. That's part of the character.

You're the SECOND positive review for this movie I've read. I admit. My interest is piqued.
