Bioshock Write-Up
I know I'm probably a little late to the party (like to the point where it's not even fashionable and everyone's died or some shit and I'm standing in the midst of a few hundred skeletons because I was late and everyone died waiting for me and then I feel guilty so I take myself out for pizza because I'm sad because my friends are now all dead and I'm like Marius but it's worse because I then realize I never even had friends in the first place and I don't get invited to parties and if I did they wouldn't wait for me to show up and I'm just stuck at home and I write the worlds worst blog about my situation and I'm in the fucking matrix). Yeah my life is a blast guys!
But despite my lateness, I've recently become re-obsessed with the Bioshock series, and so it follows that, since I've been looking for theories that I can fully agree with and support, or just interesting theories, on the events which occurred (or maybe did not occur if you catch my drift) in the Bioshock series and. I've been forming my own theories on the matter and I've decided to write up my own, fairly lengthy summary, and explanation, of each part of the series. I'm currently debating whether to include Bioshock 2... Hmmm... Comment your thoughts and I'll take heed of your advice.
So I'll pretty much just give my theories on each event and hopefully you'll comment any agreements, disagreements, or just your own theories. I'll probably post this tomorrow or the day after because I have a lot of time on my hands and no parties to attend apparently so yeah hopefully I'll stick to that deadline this time. My villains list is coming along quite nicely so we should expect that to start next week. I'll post one villain a day for 100 days in a countdown.
In the meantime stay tuned :-P

I AM EXTREMELY SORRY! EXTREMELY!
YEAH ERMMMMMMMMMMMMM SORRYYYYYYYYYYYYY.............
So...... It's been eleven months... Erm............. Yeah...
But, butttttt!!! You may be happy to know that the top 100 Heroes and Villains lists will both come next month sometime. I really think you'll be enRAPTUREd by my list, I think you'll find it quite MARVELlous but I don't want us to FALLOUT if you think it's bad. Just a few clues as to who you think will be on there.
I've also decided to do a top 100 supporting characters list, on which we don't have to have main characters or heroes and villains because that's just bullshit!
Oh and please say you understood all of my shitty clues because they were pretty fucking obvious... Come on guys I even used caps!

Ooooooohhhhhhh We're Halfway There! Woaaaaahhhhhhhhh, Livin' on The Internet!
We Reached A Massive 500 Pageviews and I Slept Through It!!!!!
So yeah, thanks for all of the support guys, we reached 500 in my sleep, so technically, I can blog in my sleep... But back to business, we have over 500 pageviews, so thanks to you guys for getting me there. The bottom line, Top 100 ain't starting today... There is just no physical way I can do it without rushing a random villain out onto the blog, without any consideration as to who it is. Sorry guys...
But I might get a couple of really short posts out about some recent tech stuff, and tomorrow I'll be reviewing The Wolverine on the blog, so hopefully it won't be horrible. Also, this months favorites post should be out by the 7th, although it isn't really monthly anymore, it's more like every time I get bored of people trying to be philosophical by telling the world that they "don't care if I get picked on because of my quiff [that is even larger than the Media Intel Service writer's penis, impressively] because I want to be different!". Jog on son, jog on...
Anyway, I might get a post or two spat out before tomorrow so stay tuned...

Yeah, I'm Shit...
These Hero and Villain Lists are Gonna Take Awhile
So I have just made a list of every Batman villain I could possibly find, there were about 500, and I need tons more... Obviously I will take a brief look at the characters, knock out any obvious losers, and then go over the remainders in a little more detail... First, I need villains from other media... Please comment, Pikmin lives at stake...

Update on Villainy!
Please comment your favourite villains from comic books, movies, music, books, videogames and TV, as this will help me to judge the top 100... Comment on this post with your favorites and just any villains... Please comment, to save a Pikmin's life...
Stay tuned :P
Villainous! Awesome Villains!
Check out my white strip, my sexy white strip! ^
I Have Decided to Make a List of my Top 100 POP CULTURE! Villains, Because Villainy is Awesome...
So my top 100 Villains will be from the categories of Movies, Videogames, Books, Comic Books, and Music... And I will be judging Villains based on these traits...
Persistence: One thing many villains lack... Persistence... Take a page from Bowser's book and keep on going, I mean how many times has he been thwarted by small, heroic Italian plumbers, and all he wants to do is start a decent human trafficking business, but this guy never gives up, no matter how many Italian plumbers (which there seems to be an abundance of) take advantage of his weak skull problem and stomp on his head...
Influence: I do love it when Villains, no matter how hated, can say a couple of words and have your head chopped off by their guards. After all, if a Villain has nobody to control they are fairly boring, one person, they have no minions to do their bidding for them, no henchman, no pawns, no pointless carrier bags to dispose of once they're through with them. And then there are villains who take it a step further, such as The Bane in Christopher Nolan's trilogy of Dark Knight movies, who decides to gain control of Gotham and manipulate the majority of the cities inhabitants (and prisoners) into unknowingly doing his bidding.
Ambition: Increasing milk prices! You bastards! So Wonder Woman villains aren't exactly very deadly, but kidnapping princesses to unleash darkness upon the world through use of keyholes is just pure genius... If a villain wants to give me a single cheeseburger when I ask for a double (damn you McDonalds), they aren't really very ambitious, on the other hand if they're taking over the world, then that's ambitious, but possibly a little too ambitious, it all depends.
Crimes: What are our heinous villains wanted for, rape? Murder? Kidnap and ransom? We don't care for those so called villains who killed you on TF2 while you were AFK taking a shit, or those "dastardly" neighbours who trimmed "your side of the hedge". When someone murders multiple people including sidekicks of his arch nemesis... then they gain an audience...
Nemesis: If a supervillain is busy committing crimes, a bit of bank robbery here, a little bit of third degree murder there, then they aren't just going to get away with it! That would ruin just about everything contained within pop culture... Of course they aren't just going to be allowed to kill thousands of people, no, which is why almost every (if not every) villain has an enemy... someone to allow the company to milk the shit out of the franchise... no hero or villain ever wins, or at least if they do another one comes along (don't quote me on that). So one segment of the rating will be how awesome the villains nemesis or main opposing hero is. Bear in mind these aren't all comic book villains but there should be a list for those pretty soon.
Look And Style: Villains need swagger. I am not going to put someone on this list who wears no costume whatsoever without a very, very good reason (unless of course they are wearing stylish clothing, then there's a whole different matter). Awesome costumes make winners... Not just in costume contests... Wear your purple orange and green attire, and be proud!
Success: All villains have to be a teensy bit successful, because if the hero constantly thwarted the villain within two minutes of them creating their devilish plot, everything would be boring... not just Titanic... everything... The villain needs to come very close to defeating the hero, at least. The stage of almost defeating the hero, however, should not lengthen movies by an hour.
Defeats: As well as the villains highs, we need to take into account their lows. We can't credit a villain for blowing up a city, if they forgot how to drive their getaway vehicle and were caught up in the explosion. Killed by a sidekick? That will cost you dearly... Obviously all villains have defeats, but if theirs is planned (which isn't technically defeat) as part of a dastardly plot, brownie points for them... If it works out.
Attributes: If our villain is witty, or clever, or strong, or quick, they'll tally up more of those brownie points. Take The Joker for example, he makes a lot of witty and downright hilarious puns and jokes, in both the movies and comic books. Abomination, (not much of a villain), super strong... So the different segments of the attributes section will be Strength, Speed, Combat, Intelligence, Power, Wealth.
Powers: So not all villains have powers, but a lot of them do, and if they don't, we'll just tally up their awesome points that don't fall into other categories. Powers are awesome, usually, but some can be a pain, or just shit. We obviously have to include powers as one section, to assess everything about the villains.
Sidekick: Although sidekicks could be considered villains all on their own, if they aren't included, we'll add them in somehow. Pretty self explanatory otherwise.
Motive: A character with a dark, mysterious, hate filled background will obviously win our vote, but if a character has a random, funny background, or something to do with insanity, I'll love it.
Apologies for the oncoming hurricane of slow posts, this will probably take me about a century to get out, maybe a little more, so if you just grab a coffee, and wait for one hundred years, then I should be done... This will take me an age... I will probably publish it as lots of separate posts, maybe daily? Who knows... Probably Jean Grey...
After completing my Top 100 Villains posts, I will probably do the same thing again, but with heroes, and also, Comic Book Characters. The posting should start tomorrow if all goes to plan, and I may do the heroes list alongside the villains list.
Stay Tuned!

What Year Is It?
My most sincere apologies at my absence for who knows how long, but I just haven't been able to find the time to blog. Today, I have managed to squeeze in a little time, so I am going to thank everyone for almost 500 pageviews in total and almost 60 pageviews on my Pixar post. I have an IGN blog now which I will run as well as this, and hopefully have no more prolonged periods of absence. :D I said prolonged periods...
So I might as well take this opportunity to tell you about my Top 100 Pop Culture Villains series of posts. which should begin with number 100 tomorrow. I will give you the details of how it will work etc. in a couple of minutes, but until then...
