I’m usually not a big fan of silly comedies, but today I’ve been introduced to this movie that I actually found entertainment, even though it falls in the “moronic teen comedy” niche. Labels aside, it’s actually a refreshing yet brainless comedy about life, death and all the good and bad things in between. Well, actually it’s merely about two friends who lose their car keys, ans subsequently engage in the most unexpected and bizarre adventures this side of the solar system. I’ll provide some clips of two remarkably moronic scenes that captured my attention. If you enjoy watching this selection, chances are you’ll enjoy the movie as well.
Zion is the name of a region in the land of Israel, and this term is often used to represent a promised land which is under divine protection – it’s the fabled land of milk and honey where the Israelian people was directed to during the Exodus. There are several artists who evoke the image of Zion with the intention of conveynd their desire for a better place, a well as an escape from the world of negativity and calamity we live at. The following song is called “Road to Zion”, the artist is no other than Damian Marley, the youngest male son to the legendary Bob Marley. This song is not only pleasant to listen, but it’s also rather interesting from an aesthethic standpoint. During the video, Damian roams around the streets strolling a shop cart and distributing cards featuring the Lion of Judah (an image often used to symbolize Jesus), thus providing redemption to the people that care to listen to his positive message. I’m aware this is just silly entertainment, but I really wish there was a road to Zion; all things considered, there’s no wrong in dreaming, wouldn’t you agree?

Sometimes I can’t help but feel helpless
I’m having daymares in daytime
Wide awake try to relate
This can’t be happening like I’m in a dream while I’m walkin,
If you’ve ever played the video game hit Street Fighter, you’re likely to know about the charismatic protagonists Ryu and Ken. Well, if you’ve ever played with Ken, you might have been puzzled about his strange war cry HADOKEN and SHORYUKEN! I mean, it’s not like those words make any sense, right?
Well, fortunately my inside sources have just told me about this cartoon which clearly demonstrates the real meaning behind Ken’s furious hollering. Personally, I’m very impressed with this revelation, although I must admit I had my suspicions it would be something like this:
I have played many flash games in my day, and the one that strikes me as the most addicting piece of entertainment must definately be one of the first ever flash game I’ve played: possibly even more so that “The Impossible Quiz“. Ladies and gentleman, today’s slice will provide you with… Super Kick-ups!
The game concept is incredibly simple; all you need to do is pretend you’re kicking up a football, trying to keep it on the air. Like most addicting games there are, the game premise sounds deceptively simple, to the point it doesn’t account for that “factor x”, that in turn causes the “just one more play” effect.
The game mechanics are superb, and this is one of the finest versions of the game I’ve found thus far: the ball is enbibed with quite realistic real-world physics – depending on the spot you click, it will go towards a different direction, and as it bounces around and you try to keep it in balance, you really get the feeling of gravity. This is great for anyone who enjoys soccer, juggling, or straight out having fun. Recommended for those idle coffee breaks where you get that gaming feeling! You know what I’m talking about. Bookmark this page for future reference, and make sure to post your record.
My own personal record in kick-ups is currently:23 (I swear, I used to be able to go past the 100′s… I think this mouse i’m using right now is not so good >_<)
” A shadow falls over ancient lands. Its people grow eccentric and forgetful. Hidden enchantments prevent safe passage along familiar paths. The four kingdoms are on the verge of war.
Only the magic of the Sun’s map can undo this treachery. And this map is held by a wandering Fool who seeks his fortune”.
Like puzzles? Like stories of mystical quality? Enjoy tarot-bound storybook references? Then today I’ve got the perfect entertainment for you. This fool’s errand is no goose chase, rather it’s an amazing puzzle collection in narrative guise, that won several awards in 1987 when it was released, as well as a faithfull legion of fans. The plot revolves around the Fool, who’s given a very important task of saving the Four Kingdoms from destroying each other. In order to do so, you’ll have to solve a wide range of puzzles, from scramble soups to jigsaws, riddles and tricks and a variety of brain teasers that will leave the most self-assured players truly baffled. If you don’t know this one, there’s no time to miss. Just dash towards the Home of the Underdogs (a great resource to get old “abandonware” games, mind you) , and start playing! Beware tough… your productivity is likely to plummet for a while.
This is quite possibly one of the most clever flash games out there, and it’s enormously addictive, even for people who don’t like to watch “Who wants to be a millionarie” on a daily basis. I, for one, despise quiz shows, but this little game is truly engaging and innovative. And while it’s not really impossible, it’s definately taxing on the nerves, because you have to start over everytime you lose. If you’re looking for a brief entertainment fix, this here is perfect for you:
