Retro Basketmania:Greek Cup and Eurobasket!!

In Greece we have many basketball fans but we haven't retro fans like for example Spain(2 sites where i download the games are spanish).I sometimes like to watch games even if it isnt in the best quality.Firstly I watched the semifinal of the greek cup of 1992-93 ,there wasnt any final 4, between Olympiakos Pireus and Aris Salonica.It was the first season after the signing of Nick Galis to Panathinaikos and Aris had conquered his first european trophy winning in Torino Efes Pilsen of Petar Naumoski.Olympiakos after the dryness of the 80s he had signed as coach John Ioanides ,the Architect of the Emperor of the 80s (Aris) and having defeated Aris...

Ink....Something's gotta stop the flow

There were a number of great movies in 2009(like every year) that were never really in the spotlight yet they deserved it completely. Movies like "Le concert" and "Mr.Nobody" went relatively under the radar, while the media were wasting our time with dumped-down tech marvels like "Avatar" and shit like "the Hurt Locker". One such movie is an independent fantasy film by Jamin Winans called "Ink". ...

Ryûhei Kitamura...Ninja stars are for losers

From Undead to Aliens and from War Demons to the Yakuza, Kitamura' s movies covers every modern crazy, dark and twisted trend in filmaking that is expressed recently by directors like Tarantino, Rodriguez and Ritchie. I first saw a review about one of his movies in TGWTG website and was intrigued immediately. I saw 5 of his movies these last 10 days and I have to say it is everything that I hoped for. Interesting and unique camera work stylized,crazy and twisted violence and a few of the most enjoyable action scenes one could expect. Photo by : Os Osm...

Why US Shameless is so shitty compared to the British which is a Masterpiece????!!!

Well in the UK television there was a drama series who stormed BAFTA nominations and won it once.Now it is at its 8th season successful as ever with 22 episodes this year(more than the previous seasons) and a Idiotic American Network called Showtime decided to take this idea and bring it to the simple Americans.The American Frank Galagher isn't so wasted as the original because they tried to use a previous Oscar nominee so the American audience can take him seriously...

The Twin Destinies of Visitors!!!

on a break from Blogoscars we come to our favorite series!Firstly Stargate Universe as we come close to the end of the series.This episode is a little more strange from the others because it has the element of Time travel.So we have 2 professors Rush(it's the coolest name in this series) who tries to avert a tragedy with their return at home.It's awkward because in real life it would had cause a rift in spacetime fabric or a alternate universe.But finally the time traveler Rush prefers to die with his alternate Destiny spaceship and the idiot Mexican Telmark fries himself in high voltage but is alive in earth the same time! The V(isitors) they...

Carrying a Movie on your Shoulders...

Can really an actor carry on a whole movie on his own in the same Claustrophobic setting and still the end result be an interesting movie?..I thought if you have a good actor and good imagination it can happen but I never really considered it easy.I thought there was a huge risk of making such a movie boring and tiring. Yet last year 2 movies came out with that very characteristic and end up being pretty good, proving that I overestimated the difficulty of the style...Buried and 127 Hours... ...

Black Country Communion...A real Supergroup?

The group was born in the King of the Blues event in November 2009 where Glenn Hughes and Joe Bonamassa played together. After that they decided that it would be a good idea and to record together. Well it ended up being a great idea! Soon after they were joined by Jason Bonham (John Bonham's son if you live under a rock and have no idea) and former Dream Theater Keyboardist Derek Sherinian and Black Country Communion was created. They begun recording in January 2010, according to Hughes. The result...Their first album in September 2010 "Black Country"...

Zebraman 2

Black and White,Baby!.This is the most famous phrase from this sequel.In 2004 Takashi Mike made a superhero fantastic movie named Zebraman!In the sequel we follow the events after 15 years (2025) in Tokyo which is now called Zebra City and a new ruthless law known as Zebra Time.Between 5:00 and 5:05 any crime done  doesn't get punished.The movie is fun ,it has a bit of pervertedness(it is takeshi mike),a very hot Villain(the black side of Zebraman,Zebra Queen) and it parodies the low budget Japanese superhero series.I wish to have in here more Japanese movie fans.Take care and wait for Dragon Age 2!!!!!!...
