Daybreakers: Movie Trailer [Not Twilight Disney Crap]

Vampire movies rock. Gotta love em. Nothing is quite so entertaining as avoiding sunlight, crucifixes and wooden stakes and sporting a couple of fangs and some superhuman abilities. But I’m not talking about the vamp movie with the emo fag and his pale girlfriend from High-School-Musical-meets-Underworld Disney hit, Twilight. There’s a new one on the horizon – Daybreakers, and it looks pretty damn good.

Edward Dalton is a researcher in the year 2019, in which an unknown plague has transformed the world’s population into vampires. As the human population nears extinction, vampires must capture and farm every remaining human, or find a blood substitute before time runs out. However, a covert group of vampires makes a remarkable discovery, one which has the power to save the human race. “

Pirate Bay Sold, Founder Sunde to Retire in Cape Town?

Napster, Inc.

So the hot news on the interwebs is that the world’s largest torrent tracking site is due to be sold to a private Swedish gaming firm, who will attempt to turn the service legit. Shades of Napster‘s demise loom large, but hopefully this time the record companies and the motion picture association have a bit more foresight and don’t attempt to bully their way completely out of the online era. I’ve always maintained I don’t mind paying a few bucks for legit downloads from a decent music download site.

Whether this is a good thing or not remains to be seen. We’ll have to watch closely as it plays out over the coming months, which means that Peter Sunde’s visit to South Africa to keynote at iWeek 2009 should prove to be a hot event.

One does wonder how he’ll skip out of Sweden with a jail sentence hanging over his head. Perhaps he’s got himself one of those easily obtained fake South African passports?

00:36:08 A fucking Terminator on the hood of the car. Fuuuuuck.

00:38:15 Terminator plays Jeff Dunham with his voice. Dot Com.

00:40:00 Reese’s guide to Terminatorers. From the futurerers.

00:46:12 Damn, Reese, you got made, fool.

00:50:43 Arnie takes a cue from Luke Skywalker’s cyborg hand.

00:53:03 Is my eyes red? Arnie actually looks plastic!

00:55:10 “He’ll reach down her throat and tear her fuckin’ heart out!” That’s not nice.

00:57:11 “I’ll be back”. You bet he’ll be back!

01:00:00 More bad synthesizer muzak.

01:02:23 Reese, Kyle Reese. Definitely not James Bond.

01:16:25 I sense a sex scene soon

01:16:45 Kyle Reese has never ever done the dirty???!?!!?! Say what??!?!!?

01:17:53 Kyle loves John’s mom. John’s mom has got it going on.

01:18:35 Technically, somehow, this sort of cross-time molestation has got to be illegal.

01:19:08 Linda Hamilton Boobs! KIAAAAA!

01:20:15 Hahaha Termie, they heard the dodgy danger-danger synthesizer music before you could get to them.

01:22:12 Reese gets shot – this is going to end in tears…

01:24:03 Terminator Elvis impression – truck driving!

01:25:38 Burn motherfucker, burn.

01:27:15 Oh shit! It’s not The Terminator, its the freakin Energizer bunny.

01:28:07 Gotta see someone about that limp, metalhead.

01:29:13 “On your feet, soldier!” Sarah’s hardcore kickass attitude is born.

01:30:51 Asimo can climb stairs!

01:31:42 Pipe bomb in the rectum and we’re having cyborg showers!

01:32:53 Pappa Bear is gone.

01:33:00 But not Skeletor’s chrome cousin. Persistent bastard.

01:34:55 “You’re terminated, fucker”. Off to the tin-can recycling plant for you.

01:36:00 What’s that boom microphone reflected in the ambulance window for?

01:37:03 “Gasoline por favor.”

01:38:21 Oh, so that’s where Reese’s photo of Sarah was taken! Cute!

01:39:00 It’s over. Doesn’t exactly scream for a sequel I guess.
