Richard Richards, Sue & Johnny Storm, Ben Grimm - Meet the
Fantastic Four - Marvel's (or should I say Stan's) latest
comic-turned-blockbuster superheros. Overall Fantastic Four was a very enjoyable, fun movie. One could almost, dare I say was absolutely fantastic.


It's just a good film, one that I think entire family can enjoy. Avi Arad and team have done an excellent job with the casting - Jessica Alba was great as Sue Storm, along with Michael Chiklis as the Thing/Ben Grimm), even Aussie actor Julian McMahon played Dr Doom with such ternacity. Chris Evans, who plays Johnny Storm had some great lines in the movie which provided light comedy amongst all the action.


The effects in Fantastic Four were first rate - especially the scene on New York bridge. Props to all the CGI artist.



Hopefully we.ll get to see the foursome in another adventure soon.

{mosimage}"Yahoo! Inc. on Tuesday will announce the acquisition of Konfabulator (now called Yahoo Widgets), a Macintosh and Windows application that allows users to run Widgets on their desktop -- the same model used by Apple for its Dashboard application. Yahoo! company executives said they would also be giving Konfabulator away for free, completely doing away with the US$19.95 currently charged for the product."

I still think Konfabulator is a better model than Dashboard on the Mac, but on Windows, Samurize wins hands down.

{mosimage}Ever wondered what it takes to get that Ribbon, Badge or Medal in Battlefield 2, well thanks to the phusioN, here's the unofficial guide.

{mosimage}"The hotfix for Battlefield 2 v1.01 is now available for download. This update replaces v1.01 and fixes the said memory leak. Along with this update, we’ve made available an updated unranked server file for Win32 and an updated unranked server file for Linux."

Unfortunatelely, the game still crashes, this time instead of back to the desktop, the PC reboots itself. Something is to blame here ... EA/DICE or nVidia's driver ?

At least, I can now use qtracker to find my friends and join them for some team-based ass kickin'.

Well, I get home after a crap day at work, but it's Friday and time to play some BF2, except this time when I run the game, everything is blue.


This morning I lodged a support ticket with EA, so I'm waiting to hear any feedback that they have. In other news, the official site says they're currently "testing" the new patch. Maybe there is a light at the end of this tunnel ?
