The Doctor's Prognosis: My Medieval Birthday + MORE~!!

Hello my peeps! Welcome back to the Doctor's Prognosis! I am your host, Dr. C-LOS.

Been a litte over a month since my last blog and yes I am still alive. I have been really busy with work and school. Especially school. I am taking a film editing course and our first task is to take an unedited film and create a short movie with it. That's right... cutting and splicing film ourselves. Many of us were hesitant to begin cutting. Anyway, whatever we have left after the first film will be used to create another film. So really we have to create two films.

I spent a lot of time in the editing lab doing some hard work making sure the edits were good but in a way it was also fun. I guess the challenge actually kept me interested as I rarely feel challenged in school.

Now that you know why I have been scarce around here, I will get into some stuff I wanted to talk about.....

My Birthday

Yeah so I just turned 28 recently and my mom decided she wanted to take me and my brother (I have a fraternal twin which means we don't look alike) to Medieval Times near her place. I thought it might be boring but it was really fun. They had a bar there so I decided to have a few drinks.

They give you crowns which represent the knight you will be cheering for during the dinner show. What made it so fun was the drunken loud people in my area, the yellow area. Our area was the most vocal and even my grandmother got into it and was waving her flag for our knight. She even had a drink or two.

After the dinner show, the knights gathered around the bar to relax. The rest of us got to go talk to them and take pictures. Not to mention the drinks and they actually had a sort of dance floor along with some music though it was just for a short time.

We all had a lot of fun and now my bro and I are interested in renaissance festivals. Well we were always interested but this just gave us a reminder. Hopefully we will be able to visit one of these festivals soon.

I have a picture I wanted to show you but I need to figure out how to scan it on this computer. Also my bro took it to his girl's house and forgot it. Next time for sure.

I instead leave you with the Knights that put on the show for us instead.

Go Yellow Knight! Or as the drunken guys behind me were yelling... "Yeeeeeeelloooooowww!!!"

Lego Batman

Yes I bought it. And yes I still haven't finished Bioshock after a whole year. I wanted to buy Too Human first but I have little money at the moment and this game is cheaper. With my Best Buy discount it's only slightly above $40.

I am glad I got this game. Very simple gameplay but very fun. Even my bro picked up the other controller and played some two-player with me for awhile.

After you finish the levels in Story Mode, you can return and play in Free Play Mode where you can switch on the fly with any characters you've unlocked. This makes it much easier to get whatever you missed the first time through. I hope Batman: Arkham Asylum is at least as good as this. It's not perfect by any means but fun for Batman fans. That's a thumbs up from me.

Shazam!

Ok so one last thing. I recently bought hardcover graphic novel Shazam!: The Monster Society of Evil by Jeff Smith. Yes... Jeff Smith of Bone fame. I only recently found out about this book and I loved it. It has that great art and simple but engaging story that is suitable for all ages. Just like Bone. It's got magic, humor, and political subtexts. Good stuff.

If you are a Jeff Smith/Bone fan like me then I highly recommend this book. It introduced me to Captain Marvel for the first time in comic form and I really liked it.

I can now see why Captain Marvel was more popular than Superman in the past. I think the character is more relatable as Captain Marvel inhabits a little boy which fulfills many a man's dream as a kid. Makes me wonder why Warner Bros. and DC wouldn't make a film based on this franchise. It appeals to kids and adults. This book certainly made a fan out of me.

Cosplayer of the Blog

Since it's been some time I reward you with more than one pic this time. Some of my readers were very enthusiatic about the cute girl dressed like Samus so I decided for more of her. I found some pics of the same girl.... in Samus' Zero Suit. Very nice.

Thanks for making another appointment with The Doctor's Prgonosis! Hopefully they won't be so far between for the following blogs.

See you next time!
