I found out some inside stuff from a friend who works with Marvel Studios about their intentions with Spiderman.

I can't say anything other than I'm very mixed about what they're planning. And it has everything to do with Sony.

(some people are evil :lol:)


I like that some states let you claim the lottery money anonymously. No way in hell would I ever get in front of a camera holding a huge check. :shock:

Decided out of curiosity to entertain the most sickest movies in modern day filming. It may sound like I have a fetish or a warped mind, but luckily I feel I have the intelligence to always keep in mind thay they are movies, and that someone, somewhere thought these products were a good idea and/or wanted a story or a message to be told.
So I did a marathon of the Lars Von Triers Depression Trilogy consisting of Melancolia, Antichrist and Nymphomaniac parts 1 and 2. Instead if going in the intents order if sickness, I next tackled one of the sickest movies ever made, called A Serbian Film. Finally, I am ending the night with The Human Centipede 1 and 2.


Ok, so obviously I am not gonna review these movies because I access the Dojo on my phone and I never really type huge huge posts like I used to. But firstly, if these are the sickest movies ever made, then I guess being a huge Saw fan has desensetised me to this type of stuff because not once was I shocked or made to feel sick like so many people on the Internet appear to be at these movies. I mean yea I understand the grossness of them all, and also see what messages the artistic angles the directors are coming from.....

But what can I say, I feel bored from the day watching these. In fact, it made me more passionate about the Saw franchise and angrier thay people still class it as torture porn. I'm not denying it paved the groundwork for that specific genre, but it did have a full story, a mythology, heck, even a justification for the Jigsaw Killer. These movies I watched today are just meh movies to me, even as an art form that Von Trier and Tom Six say they are trying to portray and accomplish.

Anyways, there's no point in watching them, not even to brag that you stomached your way through them. Unless you want to see such sick stuff, but then again that's an ironic statement in itself because are you honestly meant to be shocked by a woman masturbating fully nude in full visual daylight, but how many women do that behind closed doors everyday? How many people on the Internet have watched 2 girls 1 cup etc? I don't think they will shock a watcher of horror movies. Or those who have a moderately strong stomach. Heck I watched a Serbian Film whilst eating chips and chicken nuggets.

As in Sony are insisting on certain things you aren't a fan of? Once the deal was made I assumed Sony would just let Marvel Studios handle the films even though they told press that wasn't the case. Sony could literally sit back and say. "Here's Spider-Man, do what you want but we get a cut."

Biso the cat apparently crawled into a hole in a metro station in Cairo, Egypt, in 2010, when he was still a kitten, but grew too big to get out again.

He is only said to have survived because an elderly man (mr Abdo) fed him and gave him water every day.

he was freed after a facebook campaign but ran off and has not been seen since. mr Abdo is still looking for him.

I honesty was thinking of typing some more shit about it but it would've been saying too much.

Even though the Dojo is a secluded part of the interwebs, it's not a deepnet site. Anything I say will end up on Latino Review or some other bullshit entertainment gossip site and will get my friend in trouble. Especially anything concerning Spider-Fucking-Man in Marvel's shit.

With getting my old laptop yesterday and posting here a bit more, i had a Shenmue dream last night. There wasnt much to it, but it was Ryo in a future Shenmue game finding a piece of scrap paper with valuable information on it, but the page was torn in half, and you had to find the other half for the information to make sense. Pretty detailed dream too, since the paper i could see was the Chawan style paper with that familiar Shenmue font. Pretty cool actually.
