Assassin's Creed Novels and Manga Books


Back in High School, i heard of Assassin's Creed novels that i didn't think of reading but later on in 2018 i got a hand of reading the novelizations of Ac 2 (Renaissance) Brotherhood Black Flag AC 3 (Forshaken) Unity Underworld and two Shao Jun Books that i am still reading. I won't tell much of the plot of them but they are like the game but with changes and differences to them and have their own stories too. 


I did enjoy reading Brotherhood Unity and Black Flag cause of the details and plot in the books and work very differently from the games too one of the pages from black flag is in the game too when you are modern era and collect in some details of Edward Kenway. As for Shao Jun's books like the ming storm and desert threat, i am still reading them and so far far really enjoy them Renaissance Underworld and Forshaken, however, are good trying to read as much i can. i don't know if i plan to get more who knows anyways time to talk about shao jun manga books. 

Manga Books of Shau Jun i have four of them and i really like them, especially how the manga art in Assassin's Creed looks incredible well i won't tell much of the plot it's available on bookstores so collected them if you can.

SWTCW S5 Finale Episode and the shot that really hit me


I been meaning to talk about this episode for a long time and i was about to talk about it but got very distracted with other things in life and would happen to talk the finale of The Clone Wars Season 5 where Ahsoka leaves the jedi order and what really hit me was the shot that i saw when she rejected of returning and walking out of the temple was a gut wrench moment for me and this was back in 2013 and watching season 5 episode before it's cancellation or end and hits me hard when i was facing a choice to leave a place that i had to go for and walk away. Who couldn't help but watch every episode of the clone wars i know i didn't watch much of it back than before seeing it once again maybe with the mandolore arc. 


Yet this scene was heartbreaking in Star Wars Universe and those of watching were either crying and sad. Not just that but anakin losing his padawan was led to him turn to the dark side where the show take before revenge of the sith. I mean from watching the clone wars movie where ahsoka made her debut sure she had some problems with the fans but it wasn't until they fixed her in the show as it progress and having her mature to have her leave the jedi order. The shot of her leaving the jedi temple as she walks down the stairs hit me hard of remembering seeing the movie and show collecting lego sets and action figures was like saying good bye to our childhoods.

A Photo from February 2013

About 13 years ago i found this photo from my old facebook account and after realizing it and this was back when snow days were happening a lot before i had to clean the driveway with a snowblower. 


The sun rising was orange mixed with yellow and the skies were also orange and blue too and the driveway around my neighborhood was quiet and i took this photo pretty fun back than. 


Down below here is a snowmobile trip that i use to do before and from what i can tell was that it was a fun time driving around with my parents and their friends we made quiet a journey and stop for food and return back around night time and it was a lot of fun i can tell. I do have more to look and find so keep a good eye out.

Dinosaur (2000) Is underrated

Does anyone remembers dinosaur from Disney that was release in May 2000 well you're in luck the film itself has an interesting backstory. Starting with story ideas that they try to craft together before the finish product several storyboards and animation tests were made but it's gonna be hard for me to tell so here goes. 

The film talks of a young Iguanodon who is adopted by lemurs they survived a meteor strike that destroyed life around it and their home too thet would meet up with a huge pack of dinosaurs led by kron and bruton and searching for water, aladar would meet three other dinosaurs and the journey is hot and with no food or water they must make it or can they. 

The film is like surviving in the desert and finding water which i recall has been told before and i guess that the reason why it's underrated was likely due to critics at the time felt like it lacks originally or the story it's doesn't get a lot of recognition or praise but i find it to quite enjoyable and the film isn't just like Jurassic park it's more like survival sacrifice and taking risk whatever means necessary it doesn't feel like your average kid's movie there are risks needed and scenes that can be dark where Aladar is about to be eaten and his adoptive little sister Sari screams out his name which i remember seeing that part on Toy Story 2 Vhs tape before and never left my mind even when the raptors themselves that were about to attack Aladar and his family and the sounds they make give me chills and they were different from the ones on Jurassic Park. 



The soundtrack itself is made by James Newton Howard now i have mention the tracks in the movie that i already made on my other post before so from what i can say about the soundtrack itself it really is so beautiful but yet strong when you listen to the parts of the soundtracks and i recommended hearing it. 


So the film i saw this back in kindergarten when i saw the movie on previews from Disney and Pixar i did rent a movie of it from blockbuster and brought the dvd of it back in 2008 i think it was around spring or summer i recall maybe the fall perhaps it was at walmart and i remember buying dvds there before it was awesome back than there are games on the movie that i recall seeing and also learning about the dinosaurs as a kid i had a great time playing them and learning about them and had trouble with the cave game too that was really hard for me to get through and i know what happens in the end i seen the video before if only i can do it once more.
