Karma. It's a Bitch.

It's well-known that Scott Mitchell is the douchebag Darth Vader of the video game industry. Nine years ago I wrote about this statement of fact:
Last night I caught The King of Kong; and almost (ALMOST!!!!) was stirred to emotion after the guy (Steve Weibe) got his heart ripped out by that douchebag Billy Mitchell and his little fucking minions. Dude breaks the Donkey Kong record, AT the official record-keeping joint in all the land. He was pressed into going to do it "live" by people that discredited his previous efforts due to them being on video tape. So as he breaks it live once and for all, Billy Mitchell has sent a videotape of HIMSELF "breaking the record" at his own house. Which his little faggot underlings proudly claim to be the new world record. Never minding that 1) it was Mitchell who had led the charge to discredit the guy for not doing it live before 2) some "sketchy" tape stuff was going on with the picture of the tape that the "officials" spent about 0 seconds on in their desperate hamstring-popping sprints to please their Master, Billy Mitchell.
And today? Mitchell's been stripped of his Donkey Kong "record":
Controversial arcade game player Billy Mitchell’s record scores have been removed from the Twin Galaxies leaderboards following a dispute earlier this year that many were performed using an arcade emulator. The ruling, which comes after a lengthy arbitration process, also bans Mitchell from further participation on the leaderboards, bringing an end to the King of Kong star’s high-score glory.
All of Mitchell’s records on Twin Galaxies, an organization that tracks video game records and high scores, have been scrubbed. These marks included a 1,062,800-point score for the 1981 arcade game Donkey Kong, as well as scores set between 2005 and 2007.
Ah yes, sweet, horrible vindication...

One cannot deny the direction mainstream Hollywood "horror" films are going in, not a direction of true horror, but one of teen screams and cheap scares. And even though PG-13 Hollywood horror has created some gems like The Conjuring, for the most part they have disappointed this horror veteran. This film was no different, it just plain old wasn't scary, or thrilling, or suspenseful. To be fair I liked some the kills but other than that I could not find anything redeeming. happy death day online Its another sad attempt by Hollywood at horror, it just isn't scary. Like many other mainstream horror films, I found myself being bored, waiting for the next scare/kill, only to be disappointed by it. But I suppose if you are a 14 year old girl, like the majority of the theater was, then I suppose it might scare you, but for a man who has been a horror nerd since childhood, this just didn't do it at all for me, I was truly disappointed. the devil's candy release date

The acting was just so generic it ruined many aspects of the film. Not only did I not relate with these characters, I didn't care if they died or not, which can be an essential aspect of such a horror film as this. Also in the tense moments of suspense, their acting wasn't convincing enough to make the scene actually suspenseful. watch Avengers Infinity War online free hd And another thing I just cant stand is that stupid CGI face-morphing that goes on. Not just in this movie, but in all movies, where the face screams but its mouth is CGI'ed to make it look bigger. Ugh it just sooooooo takes me out of the scare and honestly makes me laugh in embarrassment for whoever thought it looked good. As a horror veteran, these films make me sad, If you are an easily frightened child, go see it, but if you are a horror veteran like myself, this will only disgust you.
