Random ramblings cuz I have nothing better to do... or something... :)This is the site formerly known as Anneke's Haven. Within, you will find information about my previous White Wolf chronicles, and other random gaming related stuff. I also have a blog here, where I talk about pretty much everything and anything, though it's primarily about my exciting life... the definition of exciting definitely being up for debate.
Enjoy your visit, and come back soon!

Things I never really needed to know, I learned by watching "The Forgotten"
1. If a plot seems completely implausible and silly, it's probably in this movie.
2. Fear the abominalienators.
3. Triatheleditors can beat an abominalienator, hands down.
4. Ex-hockey players kick ass.
5. The NSA is a bunch of slow running nelly little girls.
6. Fear the power of "whoosh."
7. The "special ending" is the same suck as the first time through, except with the abominalienator.
I don't usually rant that much about movies, and certainly not on a Wednesday, but sometimes, something is the suckiest suck that ever sucked, and thus we have to change things up a bit.
See, the first sign that this was a bad movie should have been the fact that it was in the theaters in December, and was out on DVD by the end of January. That's a bit of a turnaround. I think it might also have been a sign that it was bad because Gary Sinese and Anthony Edwards were in it. Because the former is a decent actor, but he hasn't been in much lately. And the latter, well, I thought he used to be young and on E.R.? Cuz he's not any more.
So yeah, anyone who says that this movie has a neat twist like in "The Sixth Sense" should probably be laughed at. Cuz though I haven't seen "The Sixth Sense" (someone ruined the ending for me before I could see it), I seriously doubt that this movie even comes close to it.
And to explain some of the weird words in my list above:
"abominalienators" = Vampire/Werewolf/alien/Terminator monster thingies. They can't be stopped. Well, usually... they do have an archnemesis in...
"triatheleditors" = because women who edit children's books for a living can outrun ANYTHING. Except they can't catch up to their own children, oddly enough. But they are far superior to the abominalienators. My current goal in life is to become a triatheleditor. Except that I think it involves running, and I don't like running.
"whoosh" = I dunno if I can explain this one without laughing hysterically, and as I'm at work, I don't think I want to try. Sadly, I think you have to watch the movie to understand whoosh, and I really wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. You will want that hour and forty-five minutes of your life back.
"shwoo" = the opposite of whoosh. Blame J for that one. It was meant to be "whoosh" backwards, but it didn't sound like it. And no, there is no visible "shwoo"... we made it up, mostly.
So yeah. The suckiest suck that ever sucked. Seriously.
Worse than "Van Helsing"... cuz at least "Van Helsing" has Kate Beckinsale in a corset and impractical boots... :)
