HBO Voyeur 


HBO has released a cross media new show/experience called “Voyeur”, it’s a series of concurrent events all shot in silence from a voyeur’s perspective. They have released a teaser trailer (above) for the new show that will coincide with the current site here and building projections.

The great thing is that they have developed “Character Artifacts” in the way of distributed print media, exclusive mobile content {very 3 mobile big brother esk}, online “character” blogs and sites that give you clues about what is going on….it’s a treasure hunt that will immerse the viewers the the whole “Voyeur” experience.

There is also a cool blog that HBO have organised to document the entire process, check it out if you want to know more or have no idea what I am talking about :-)

I’m a little bummed that we wont get the whole experience here in Australia but thanks to YouTube and the web we should be able to keep up.

Transformers

Tonight Justy, Matt and I got to see the special advanced media screening of “Transformers” at the South Bank Cinemas.
All I can say is it’s fucking insane!
…..so much better then I thought it was going to be, and I was really looking forward to it too!

The effects are fantastic….so realistic, makes you really think it’s possible for the transformations to happen.
The storyline and dialogue is also great and doesn’t fall aside like in some of the other ‘blockbusters’ that have come out recently. A fair amount of unexpected comedy is also in the film :-)
Everyone should go and see this one!

*Thanks again for the invite Justy, your the man!

The Sopranos FINALE

Sopranos FINALE

What to say?

I expected more…not to say it was bad, I guess I was just hoping for a better series finale. The ending has upset a lot of people and I must say I thought the download was cut short, 6 seconds of black screen without audio kinda freaked me out, I had to quickly jump online to make sure it hadn’t cut out.

At any rate I had a read through a couple of forums and found out an explanation of the ending and it was actually pretty good, not something you usually see from the show but acceptable no the less.

There is a rumour that they are planning a ‘Sopranos’ movie, which would be a great ending but I can’t see them doing that….it is HBO after all.

I am now ripping and watching “Six Feet Under” as my housemate has all the seasons on DVD. :-D

The Sopranos - Blue Comet

Last night was the 2nd last episode of “The Sopranos”…..and it was freaky awesome!

I really cant wait until the final episode, a little sad that the series is finishing but I think it needs to go out with a bang like all HBO series.

I have also decided to go back and watch “Six Feet Under” and I only just realised it is also an HBO production :-)
The two brothers have gone onto make their own cool shows {Dexter & The Lost Room} which I have also just watched. A+

They make some fantastic shows….without a doubt the best.
