My Thoughts and Opinions on The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug

So on Wednesday 18th, I went to the Vue to see the second Hobbit movie and I meant to produce a video review for it as soon as I got home but been busy with it being Christmas and my god-daughter's first birthday.

So here's the video I've done today about a week later.

Godzilla: My thoughts on the Comic-Con & Offiicial Teaser Trailers

Finally after two years since the Comic-Con teaser trailer made Godzilla fans like me in a fit of pure child-like excitement but since only the people who went got to see the trailer and the rest of the world including me because I live in the UK was a still yet unclear image of Godzilla's shadow and a synopsis along with some fan-made mock-up videos on YouTube.

However in October this trailer was leaked onto the internet and I saw it and it was sooo much more better than what had been described and my hype for the film went through the roof.

Following the release of the official teaser trailer on Tuesday, I wanted to do a review but didn't want to write one so I've tried to make a video with my thoughts on both these trailers and air my hopes for what might be shown in the next trailer and the film itself.

That said this was my first attempt at doing anything remotely like this so I do get stuck for words throughout so just a heads up :)

Progress Update

In my last post, I mentioned creating another build of the Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror audiobook but I've found out that the rips I used were not from a CD but an audio cassette and on trying for a couple of days now I've come to the conclusion that my original build is as close as I can get given the material available.
The main problem is the chapters bleed together too closely often resulting in a "jump" which overlaps and makes the transition sloppy so unless there's a CD based option that I could use I'm afraid the project is dead in the water which pains me because I'm a perfectionist when it comes to something I take time to put together

In other news, the primary work for the sequel audiobook The Trench is complete and thankfully in more better quality and with better structure and I hope to finish and upload it by the end of this week.

Finally in light of the Meg audiobook going belly up, I've decided to do Pacific Rim instead but with a twist which is to use stills from the film and concept art for chapter art.

Good/Bad idea?

Let me know what you think of this by contacting me via Facebook or Twitter

A Quick Update

Just a quick update here,
I've been listening to the audiobook of Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror and realised that I've made some errors in the build like a chapter has been cut short etc and I'm currently working on a second build of the audiobook and will upload and replace the links when its finished and also I've managed to get hold of the sequel The Trench on audiobook which I'll also be building in the meantime along side with Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror.

Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror Audiobook

Format: .m4b

Runtime: 5:53:53

File Size: 160MB

Read by Stephen Lang

Taken from a CD Rip torrent and converted in iTunes with the AAC encoder on Spoken Podcast setting

Encoded by Chapter and Verse in 64kbps

Complete with cover art

(Note)
Unlike the other audiobooks I've put together, this one was from a torrent of a rip that someone else shared online and somehow missed the last chapter completely so I had to go onto YouTube which was the only place I could find and add the missing chapter so apologies for any changes in quality between it and the rest of the chapters presented. Also I had no reference for the chapters themselves because the original rips were whole CD length files named Part 1 and so on so I used the E-book to break up the chapters which was difficult mainly because the wording of the original novel and audiobook differ to each other so I scanned each page to find dialogue which matched as close as possible.

One last thing,
If you liked Jaws you'll love this :D

Some extra stuff :)

Over the past week or so, I've started to read CreepyPastas and have become interested in the stories and how they are told. Some of the best read ones I've found are by MrCreepyPasta on YouTube and especially when he reads the CreepyPastas of Jeff the Killer so I taken the videos and downloaded only the ones that are canon to him and turned them into audiobooks for you to enjoy complete with some art I've put together with Photoshop and as a side note the audiobooks are not split into chapters like the Harry Potter ones are.
