- Battlestar Galactica - Panorama View of the last scene - SPOILER ALERT

Filed under: TV & Media — Cardoso @ 2:13 pm

I have no words. What an ending. Too bad we’ve to wait until 2009. The Planet of the Apes ending was something I usually don’t like, but when we have a Planet of The Apes ending and still half-a-season to go…

Now the questions. Is that Earth? I DON’T KNOW.

But it looks like it. Well, check for yourself, a quick-and-dirty panorama. Looks familiar? Is that the Brooklin Bridge?

Bootlegged Indiana Jones copy? Try a Brazilian bus

Filed under: Local Nonsense, TV & Media — Cardoso @ 3:50 am

Outrageous, a total disrespect.

Last Wednesday, June the 4th, I was travelling from Rio de Janeiro to São Paulo, a 6 hour bus trip, nice to relax in a wide, 1st class seat, when the in flight, I mean, in drive movie started.

The movie? Check the video below:

Can’t play video? Have some pictures:

Yes, Virginia. They played Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

On a crappy 14" rounded-screen CRT TV, mono sound, a bootlegged copy without ending credits and opening ones in German. Of, dubbed in Portuguese.

They RUINED my experience. I was planing to watch the movie in a big real theatre, next weekend. I’m not a saint but I believe some movies deserve to be enjoyed on a REAL cinema screen. Some others are just POSs we watch to kill time, and those can be watched via YouTube. (I’m talking to you, Uwe Boll).

Specially, if I pay for a movie, if it’s included in my ticket price, I think it should be fair to watch a REAL movie, not a pirated, US$5 copy.

I’ll watch the movie today, after lunch, but it will not be the same. Great work, Autoviação 1001. You guys ruined a 20-years wait.

Hope Paramount take your company to the Courts and rip you a new one.

The guy in the photo is Luciano de Almeida, he stabbed his 16 years old girlfriend back in February. The newspaper reporting his arrest says the victim was "shreded" and the killer drunk her blood.

Looks like he is a literal "hacker".
