Darwin Would Be Proud

Ok so this kid did nothing so drastic to protect the gene pool as dying, but this is where the video comes in. It helps future generations learn to not be a complete tool while the red light is on.

Put down any beverage you have, then watch the video.

Gears of War - to be a Trilogy of Films??

The guy who directed the Underworld series and Live Free or Die Hard has been tapped to write and direct the Gears of War movies. I say movies, as in three movies. He believes that the story can be told to its greatest effect over the course of three films. Oh, by the way, his name is Len Wiseman.

In a recent interview with Bloody-Disgusting.com, Mr. Wiseman explains how he found Gears of War and briefly tells about what he intends to do.

“I’m writing Gears Of War with Chris Morgan, who wrote Wanted,” he tells BD before explaining that he wasn’t much of a gamer until he saw GOW in his movie Live Free Or Die Hard.

“I suck at video games, it just takes me too long and I can’t get the coordination of ‘em. When I was on [Live Free Or] Die Hard, I had to choose some video game for the background in a scene with Kevin Smith. I was shown about a dozen games and told to ‘Choose one to be in the background’ and I said ‘this one looks really, really cool whatever it is,’ and it was Gears Of War. I just really connected with it; the design of it the world, the whole thing. So I actually brought an Xbox 360 to start researching what it was.”

“It’s going to be much more [on the] science fiction side of it than the creature side of it. I’ve always been much more of a sci-fi action fan than a horror fan,” he reveals also explaining that he wants the scope of the film to be told over the course of three films! “The hope is that were wanting to do a three movies and really cover the bases on everything. Basically a harder edged Lord Of The Rings.”

And now, some obligatory pictures from Gears.

Fight!

Here's something different and fun! Well fun to me! (Six will enjoy this too...) Anytime Chris Neil can get popped in the face, and by a Devil no less - I'm posting it! And by posting it I am officially expanding the scope of this blog to include our takes on sports and any other hobbies or events that we feel like commenting on, including Xbox 360 games - just not limiting them to Halo only - and other interesting junk from the webernets that I come across...

But - more on that later... First, Clarkie needs to show someone who's boss!

2009 - The Year of the Friends

Well as you may have noticed, there has been little activity on both Halo Friday and the Shout Blog. This is most easily explained by stating that the Prophets have all been very busy and are suffering from the wintertime doldrums associated with extreme cold temperatures and too much snow.

So, a few Fridays ago, the Prophets gathered for a little function we like to call Happy Hour. We met over at The Distillery for a few pints of our favorite beverage - BEER, and some tasty chicken wings. There was much rejoicing that night as happy hour carried over to several hours and a stop over at the Otter Lodge.

We Prophets relived many glorious past moments and shared some new news about our recent goings on. And we promised to get together more often than we have been and rededicate some of our resources to Halo Friday.

So look soonly for new material and new stories on both the Blog and over at www.HaloFriday.com.

Until then, keep gaming and keep drinking! And when I say drinking I of course mean in a responsible manner.

Next Prophet Night = Poker Night! Im sure our old friend George will make an appearance or two, or three . . . . .
