Friday night was filled with all kinds of awesome, anyone who follows me on Twitter would of course know that I found the new Star Trek movie to be all kinds of awesome, especially Karl Urban's portrayal of McCoy which I felt was spot on.
Plans are in the works to see it again on Monday.
What bothers me, however, is that there are reports that the film hasn't beat out Wolverine for the highest weekend opening, I'd like to call, in the immortal words of James T. Kirk, bullshit because today is Sunday and, as far as I am concerned, the weekend is not over and I don't care what anyone says. Until the Sunday numbers are included you can't say that Star Trek didn't kick Wolverine's ass.

Anime! Ah-aaaaaaah!
Yeah, decided to make this an anime post considering the fact that we are already five weeks into the Spring 2009 season, woo!
Of note of the Winter 2009 season is the fact that I have finished watching Rideback and was just a tad disappointed with how they ended the series, it's not that I don't like how it ended I just feel that it could have been done slightly better. Overall, I found the series to be great.
Anyway, on to the Spring 2009 shows I'm watching!
- K-ON! -
At last! KyoAni gets to do their High School girls band anime! And I'm kinda liking it. It's a slice of life anime, much like other KyoAni series Luck Star and Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu, that focuses on the Light Music club, it's members, Akiyama Mio, Hirasawa Yui, Kotobuki Tsumugi, and Tainaka Ritsu, and their adventures in trying to be a band. I was pretty much hooked by the first episode and plan on watching the series until its conclusion. Moe, moe! Kyun!
- Higashi no Eden -
Eden of the East I just kinda stumbled on, I blade Sankaku Complex for my interest in it. They had an article about how one of the main characters, Takizawa Akia, made his initial appearance amnesiatic, a pistol in hand, and completely naked with a white scribble as the censoring. Now, context is everything for me and I was wondering what the hell the context was so I sought out the first episode. So far I find it to be quite intriguing and at three episodes in I'm going to keep watching.
- Queen's Blade -
Now, I'm not going to lie about my reasons for watching this. No, Hirano Aya isn't one of them. Honestly, I'm very much here for the oppai, glorious oppai. Yeah, shallow I know but it's pretty much the truth. However, there is some semblance of a plot, somwhere under all the scantily clad women, so there may be more of a reason to stick around. However, I might not be able to because It would seem that Media Factory feels the need to be a bunch of pricks and do IP trolling in torrents, which is honestly of dubious legality right now, and happened to nail me for downloading. A C&D letter to my ISP and my internet was out for a day and I now have a DMCA violation strike against me, two more anre my internet goes bye-bye. I want to continue watching, only managed to get to episode two, but it seems that the power that be don't want me to. Bastards.
