This Blog is an outlet for the random thoughts of an amateur opinionator.
What's an opinionator?
An opinionator is somebody who has power without responsibility, and the ability to spout off on any subject without worrying too much about the consequences of what comes out of the mouth. All you need is an opinion and the opportunity to voice it.
TV is full of professional opinionators. The internet gives the amateur his chance.

Sorry for being a little non existent here throughout this week. I have been so tied up at work and I've been coming home and wanting to just chill. I just had a hard time adjusting to my new work sked and of course new campaign [Superpages.com]. Now, things have seemed to calm down and I'm ready for the week ahead or am I?I spent the afternoon watching Fantastic 4 : Rise of the Silver Surfer with Migz at SM Centerpoint. The movie started off well, the opening scene was cool; it was in outer space, the scene slowly glided past planets until it came up to what seems to be a world breaking up, slowly, with bursts of gigantic explosions protruding out of its surface; the planet then went dark and died.
PLOT
The Silver Surfer, a herald of Galactus – The world Devourer, swoops into earth on an excavation expedition with the intent to preparing the world for consumption by his master; and where ever the Silver Surfer goes, the world destroyer is not too far behind, off in the distant bringing with it death and destruction. Our heroes are defeated on their first meeting with the Silver Surfer; with some valuable information provided to them by their arch nemesis DOOM they succeed in capturing him on the second attempt, and the prisoner is turned over to the army. Realizing the DOOM has just used everyone to get what he really wanted, the Silver surf board which was the source of the Silver Surfer’s power; the team helped the surfer to escape and retrieve his board before he then goes out and does a kamikaze and destroys Galactus, his master along with himself, thereby saving the world.
MY THOUGHT
The acting was lame; everyone was just full of themselves. The movie plot was very weak, a battle between good and evil; a misguided convert that saves the day in the end; a wedding that has been postponed several times; a super heroe losing his cool and powers when he need it the most; and finally, the writers should have known, Galactus is too big an adversary to be used in a movie this short.
I liked the special effects though, and some of the laughs but it was not enough to justify going to see it in the cinema.
It was Ok, not great.
ADDITIONAL THOUGHT
Good thing they have Chris Evans [*yuM]
