James Bond

The new James Bond film came out this weekend. Unlike all the other James Bond films its had its plot directly related to the one before it. Named Quantam of Solace it was a sequel to Casino Royale. The plot seemed somewhat stretched but it delivered a lot of action.

Overall it was a good movie. I went to see it with my dad since I've seen ever James Bond in theaters with him. No hint at the next James Bond movie has come out yet but like always I am sure there will be another one. At the end of Quantam of Solace they truly brought the problem of the first movie to an end and foreshadowed James Bond returning to MI6 and starting his life as the 007 we all see in movies.

Hellboy 2

Last night I saw the movie Hellboy 2. It was a good movie but it definently was not as good as the first one. It seemed like the movie was used to just draw more money out of the prequels name. Basically the movie was about Hellboy stopping the Golden Army from coming about.

Like always the hero saves the day and Hellboy stops the Golden Army. I doubt it will turn into a trilogy but like always there is always a chance. I like the general idea of the story so I will most likely go see a third one.

Basketball Tournament

Last weekend I was in a 3 on 3 basketball tournament at Texas State. Out of around 25 teams we ended up coming in 3rd. It costed around 40 dollars per team and you got a free shirt along with drinks and a trophy and gift certificate if u came in the first three places. It was on a Saturday from 2-6 and was at the Jowers gym.

Most of the teams there were fraternities. In the end my team went 3-1 after losing to the 1st place team 15-14. The gift certificate we received was for a free appetizer at Salt Grass. Overall the tournament was fun and as an all freshman team against teams of Juniors and Seniors we did pretty good.
