I have no intention of discussing the swine flu since there is really nothing left for me to say about it. I just wanted to write that clever little title...been gone a while with a broken computer but now I'm back and I've brought my boredom with me. Not much new...saw "Dragonball Evolution" and let it take a big dump on my childhood (I suppose I had it coming for spending money to see that debacle). I'll post something about it soon, maybe not a review but a list of unforgivable mistakes the movie makers made (mistake number one: it's called "Dragon Ball" not "Dragonball"...get it right, guys). For now, I'll just post something I've wanted to post for a while: a video featuring a song from the game "Dragon Warrior Monsters 2" (known in Japan as "Dragon Quest") that plays when Prince Kameha and his cohort Warabou are encountered. This is kind of significant for me because anytime we would read an old English play in class and those comedic characters showed up, I would think of this song. Characters like Lancelet from "The Merchant of Venice" and Sir Politic Would-Be from "Volpone" should always be accompanied by this song. Just think of any of the characters described as "clowns" in a Shakespeare play and this song works for them:
"Monsters 2" is a great game, by the by. Kind of a knock-off of Pokemon, with the two different game packs ("Cobi's Journey" and Tara's Adventure"), but fun and unique in its own way. The first "Monsters" was just a single game and was fun, too. Not just for kids.
