Naruto Manga-catching up
It's been a long time, and a lot has happened in the world of Naruto. Fights have taken place, people are hurt, and some are presumably dead. Pain and his other bodies have invaded Konoha, and they have destroyed most of the city. The bodies of the other Pain's are too strong, and have strong powers. They can summon monsters-big ugly ones. And Pain (I presume the leader of them) blew up a chunk of Konoha! But before all of this, Naruto left to train with the frogs-the same way Jiraiya left to train. To become a Sage, or, be able to obtain the "Sage Mode". He has great success, even greater than Jiraiya himself. Sasuke and his posse travel to the land of thunder (I think) to capture the 8-tails. This quickly turns out to be too difficult for them. But they succeed-or so they think. The 8-tails is a black man, called, Killerbee. He likes to rap a lot, and hates it when they cut in on his flow. He is wicked strong, and takes care of them easily. Sasuke activates his Mangekyo Sharingan. And they capture him. But, they manage to capture just a part of his horn, I think. Back to Naruto training. He finally learns to control the natural chakra. Back to Konoha. Pain invades the city, and all Shinobi are sent to protect it. Most fail, even Kakashi and Choji, along with his dad. Things don't look so good, even with the 5th trying to save them. That is until Naruto arrives-with his new blazing look! He gets rid of one of the bodies, with no problem and begins to show off, the tremendous power that is "Sage Mode". After a while, "Sage Mode" comes to an end, and that is where we are now.
Naruto's new and better look! Complete with the "Sage Mode" eyes. It looks like he's very close to becoming a Hokage, doesn't it?

Bleach Manga Ch.342 "The Greed"
This is Bleach Manga Chapter 342, "The Greed".
Chapter 342 begins with Yammy-the 10th Espada-yeah the big arrancar we haven't seen in a good while. He's eating, and there is a dog barking. He throws something at him, and tells him to be quiet. He decides to get up, and the dog follows. Scene shifts to Ichigo against Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra asks Orihime, why did he save Ichigo. And at first she doesn't answer-she doesn't know what to say. She stumbles with her words, and Ulquiorra cuts in, asking if it was because he's a friend; or is it another thing. Ichigo cuts in, and tells him why is he so talkative. Ichigo thanks her, and tells her to step away-it's too dangerous. Ichigo uses the "Getsuga Tenshou" but this time he didn't fire it away, he moves along with it, and at close range he pounds it in. It doesn't work; Ulquiorra knows this, and tells him. Orihime is watching from farther away, and leans into the wall. The door opens-she was leaning on a door. And Loli and Menoli-the arrancar that Orihime saved back then. They tell her, that it's payback, and that they will, well, kill her. They rip part of her suit. Ichigo realizes and moves to attack them. One of the arrancar tells him to stop, or she will pluck out Orihime's eye. He prepares to attack with the Tenshou, and Ulquiorra stops it. The arrancar think he saved them, he denies it, telling them to don't get the wrong idea. Ichigo screams for him to move, but he wants Ichigo to make him. Then the entire wall behind Loli, Menoli, and Orihime crumble's, Yammi has appeared!!! END

First Post in a long time.
I've been away from you "Blogger" and I apologize-I really am...sorry.
A lot of stuff has happened since I last wrote here, a lot of stuff has happened.
But, enough of that now. What's more important is that I will try real hard to begin with the Naruto and Bleach posts-they are both at a very pivotal time in the plot. Gundam 00 Season 2 is well on its way-almost ending. So I'll see about putting some of those up. And anything that might come up, I will really write about. I'm very happy with Barack Obama, and all that-let's see what he's made of now!
Speaking of Obama, I very much liked his Inaugural Speech-it was very serious, but said so many truths. We all know problems are tough-and are damn real. We know-or we should know-that these problems won't be fixed this year-that is ludicrous! But that we will fix them, that we MUST. And everyone has to do their part-just like Obama said it. I believe that he is the president we needed, in these vexing times, and I want to believe that we can count on him.
A few things on TV began again:
American Idol
House
Burn Notice
American Idol is always fun to watch. So many characters to laugh at, and so many unforgettable auditions. But, the show tends to get anally boring as it exits the auditions. We all know the winner isn't doing much after-so who the hell cares?
House is back, and the first episode was great! I can always count of Dr. Gregory House to deliver. It's getting real good, and the upcoming episode should be why-More Cameron!!!!
Burn Notice is on today! Last season left me wanting more, and now it's time, who burned Michael???
One new show I liked a lot was yesterdays, "Lie to Me' pilot. It was funny, and I found the lead character very interesting.
That's all...

Osacar Nominations-2009
Today-in the morning-the Oscar nominations were announced. I got up early-I could have waited to look at them online, but nope, I got up. I missed them, I missed the show that announced the awards, so I had to scope the channels to look for them. And while I was doing so, I stopped on a Spanish news channel, and they were just getting ready to announced them! So I hung around-smiling, and laughing, at my damn luck.
Actor in Leading Role:
Richard Jenkins-The Visitor
Frank Langella-Frost/Nixon
Sean Penn-Milk
Brad Pitt-The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Mickey Rourke-The Wrestler
I liked the actors nominated for Best actor, and I liked also, that Leo didn't get the nod-come on, "Revolutionary Road" was not a good movie. Frank Langella's portrayal of Nixon was fun, and at the same time very honest-I seriously liked the movie a lot!
Mickey Rourke was excellent in, "The Wrestler", it was a good movie, saw it twice actually.
Sean Penn... he was good in "Milk", although I'm kind of tired of Penn always taking the same damn roles-I loved Mystic River, but he hasn't taken any roles like that in a while. Sure, "Milk" was a good movie, but I just don't think Penn should win-he should be nominated- because of this role. Richard Jenkins in, "The Visitor" I haven't seen the movie, but I will see it this coming weekend-I take these noms very seriously. And then there was Brad Pitt-for, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. It was a good movie, very moving, and sad, and at the same time it was forgettable. I actually cried as the water swept into the room, and destroyed the clock-it was the best scene of the movie. But the entire movie was a bit "oh it was good, what's next". It's just a movie that you won't want to see it again, "Oh Benjamin Button, nah, let's see another one". Brad Pitt was good playing Button-it took a different kind of talent to play the elderly man part, but it worked. If I have to pick a winner, that I would be happy with-winning. It would be Mickey Rourke. But, of course he isn't going to win-here's the winner people, Sean Penn.
Best Actor in a Supporting Role:
Josh Brolin-Milk
Robert Downey Jr.-Tropic Thunder
Philip Seymour Hoffman-Doubt
Heath Ledger-The Dark Knight
Michael Shannon-Revolutionary Road
Brolin was good in "Milk" he was one of the best part of the movie-actually. I quite enjoyed his acting. Robert Downey Jr.-more importantly, Tropic Thunder-what is up with that? If I'm not forgetting, "Tropic Thunder" is a comedy, right? So why is he nominated for the role? I don't know, let's move on. Philip Seymour Hoffman-oh man, this is trouble. "Doubt" was a damn good movie, it really was. Seymour and Streep, such a good combination. I'm really worried Hoffman will win this-and I'm sure he deserves it. IF, it wasn't for this next guy: Heath Ledger. What can I say, it was the best movie of 2008, no matter what anyone says. Yeah, I know it's a superhero flick, and they don't take these movies as serious as, "Oh my gawd, Revolutionary Road". But it was the best of 2008! Heath Ledger-The industry lost such an important actor when Ledger died-was demonically good as the Joker. I just can't see anyone beating him for the Oscar, sorry. Michael Shannon was,eh, yeah, he was on "Revolutionary Road" so he got a nomination-I just don't think he's gonna win it.
If I had to pick a winner-one that I would be content knowing he won-it would be Heath Ledger. But, I just don't see him winning, I feel that the people picking the winner feel that they should give the award to someone that is alive-it sounds horrible, but I just feel they think that way. The winner is going to be:Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Actress in a Leading Role:
Anne Hathaway-Rachel Getting Married
Angelina Jolie-Changeling
Melissa Leo-Frozen River
Meryl Streep-Doubt
Kate Winslet-The Reader
I liked the nominees, they're all great actresses-and their movies were great.
Anne Hathaway is always fun to watch, she is a great actress. But, I've never seen her playing such a role like in "Rachel Getting Married". She acted beautifully, and I think she's one of the stronger possibilities to take the award. Angelina Jolie, say what you say about her, she is a good actress. "Changeling" was a good movie, but I don't think it was good enough to nominate her-then again, Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder was nominated so yeah. She was good in the film, just not good enough to hang-this time-with some of the others. Melissa Leo, "Frozen River" it was such a moving one, I also watched it twice. She's a potent nominee as well.
Meryl Streep legendary actress-and Sister Aloysius is one hell of a woman!!- she can do it all, sing, and act like a real credible you know what. I liked the film, I liked the actors, she's one of the-come on! All the nominees are potent-potent nominees to win it. Kate Winslet, and the movie, "Revolutionary Road" what can we say? Does she deserve the win, no, is she going to win, yes-sadly yes, sadly sadly sadly a big stinking yes. I didn't like the movie-regardless of the critics saying it was "oh gawd good". It was just a flimsy film. About a struggling couple in the 1950s, whoa that's one good story. I just don't feel it was a good plot to work with! Kate doesn't deserve to win, because Anne had a better role, there. My winner:Anne Hathaway, the actual winner: Kate Winslet.
Actress in a Supporting Role:
Amy Adams-Doubt
Penelope Cruz-Vicky Cristina Barcelona
Viola Davis-Doubt
Taraji P. Henson-The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Marisa Tomei-The Wrestler
The list is good, with one small-yet big exception-and that is the presence of Penelope Cruz. Vicky Cristina-yeah yeah- was a "what movie to watch, nothing good, hey, Johansson, Penelope, should be some eye-candy" type of film. Nothing spectacular to see, nothing you're going to wow at, and surely nothing in the movie that will leave you talking-maybe, except, of course, the beautiful women. Her nomination is there just to take up space, because, four is lame to look at. I liked the performance of Viola Davis in "Doubt". It was a good, and well acted role-but, I know she has no chance to win-that I would be happy to see her take the award.
Taraji P. Henson's character in the "Button" film was good. She played the mother of Benjamin, and she played it excellent. She showed the natural qualities of a mother-and nothing over the top, where you know it's a film. She is my favorite to win, and I think she has a good solid chance to do so. Marisa Tomei in, "The Wrestler" was a good addition, to an already great film-but, she has the slightest chance of all to win this. I know it sounds bad to say it, but I have a feeling not many people will want to see her win it. Amy Adams was great in "Doubt" and she has a real chance to win-but, I don't want to see her win, just for some reason, I don't. My ideal winner:Taraji P. Henson. The winner:Amy Adams.
Animated Feature Film:
Bolt
Kung-Fu Panda
Wall-E
My ideal winner: Wall-E. The winner: Wall-E
I think out of all the nominees, Wall-E was the best. It was such a good film, I don't know why it isn't in the best pictures noms.
Directing:
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Frost/Nixon
Milk
The Reader
Slumdog Millionaire
I just want to say that I feel so bad-and at the same time, I feel disappointed at the people that pick the nominees. I feel bad that "The Dark Knight" isn't in here, and I really think it deserved to be here;Christopher Nolan did such a brilliant job creating such an intoxicating film. I feel disappointed that it wasn't even nominated, I just don't know how these damn fool think.
My Winner:Slumdog Millionaire The Winner:Milk
Best Picture:
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Frost/Nixon
Milk
The Reader
Slumdog Millionaire
Again, one of the films not here, that deserved to at least get mentioned, "The Dark Knight". It isn't here, why? Because it's a superhero film? Of course it's because it is. "Button" was good, but not better than "Dark Knight" not in any damn way!
But what can we do? Nothing.
My Winner:The Dark Knight-yeah that's my damn winner! The Winner:Slumdog Millionaire. I loved "Slumdog" so if it wins, I will be very pleased.
-I have nothing against Robert Downey Jr-I loved Iron Man.
-Nothing against Kate Winslet-I liked her on, "Hideous Kinky" but not in "Titanic".
Watch the damn awards, regardless of the screw-ups in the nominations.
