I personally have to make a choice about what I'd like to do with my stuff on the net. I've noticed that my biggest talent is music-making (although the process is very slow), and that is the ONLY active section on my old, old page. I could make that the front page and stick with that, but other ideas come to mind...

1) I make jeffreyatw.tripod.com into a webcomic (a snappy title I've been thinking of is "You Had to Be There," indicating the main type of humor U_U)

2) I start writing all my blogs (like this one, only more personal) at jeffreyatw.tripod.com, leaving this site with barely ANY content from me and perhaps bringing ONE more visitor to my old site)

3) I just keep writing personal stuff here, providing useless content yet prolonging the very life of this site.

So far, I've chosen option 3. Now that I think of it, there's nothing wrong with writing stuff here. Hell, we've already lost lots of visitors who've noticed there's not much content gushing in anymore.

...BTW, we're still accepting contributions.

Please welcome a newcomer into the Faden House of PAIN (bread)... it's...

Time to comment on Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, now that I've seen it along with everyone else on the internet. I thought, in a nutshell, that it was a great movie. Let's split that up into parts, shall we? The visuals were expectedly amazing. The music was great. The plot was clichéd and had one too many story elements from Final Fantasy VII. The dialogue, or the script itself, was terrible. Let me tell you that I was in a titanic theater - an IMAX - which was packed, and how the audience did howl at the last few lines of the movie:

Gray: I love you! *spoiler happens, awkwardizering the moment*
Dr. Sid: *cool stuff passes through his body* *gasp!* It's warm!

So when I left the theater, I was yelling at my friends about how the movie's dialogue sucked, annoying everyone around me. I guess you could say it left a bad taste in my mouth. But let's get back to the good points of the movie - everything that Square advertised was great. The two humorous lines in the movie (Ryan: "It's gonna be one of those days...") (Neil: "You've got a talent for understatement.") were the only good lines in the movie... the action sequences were great... and the "dream" was the highlight. Although in the making for 4 years, Square, or Columbia for that matter, could have spent more time developing a good plot... and firing those two lowlife writers.

One little theory that I... theorized... is that since not all of the characters were created at the same time, the characters created last were probably the most realistic. By that I mean, Aki looked computer-generated almost throughout the whole movie, while Dr. Sid, whose character was redesigned, could easily pass off as a regular person to the average viewer. It could be just that different types of people are harder to make to look realistic... but I'm not sure.

...Well... that's about my thoughts on Final Fantasy: TSW. As I mentioned first off, it's a great movie, despite all the bad points I brought up. Of course, many people out there can be much more picky than I.
