EMF Detector

What's up guys, Sean here.

Some of you may know that I love collecting movie props.  Because of that love, I joined the Replica Prop Forum (the RPF).  On May 4, 2011, a thread for the EMF (electromagnetic frequency) detector from the show Supernatural was started.  Since then it has gotten up to eight pages as of now.  They have found some of the parts used on the actual prop in the show through various screen shots and picture based measurements.  The people on the RPF have identified the exact board used for the basis of the EMF detector.  They also have identified a great source for the LEDs on the top of it.  This project may take a while, but we'll get it done.

I am planning to make one of these soon, and I'll make some (semi)regular work in progress points on the blog.  Once it is done, I'll upload a video of it on my YouTube.

Thanks,
Sean

Movies, Missouri, and Colorado

Hey guys, Sean here.

First, I'm back to posting on here weekly.

Secondly, did you hear that a guy in Missouri has been charged with planning a murder spree at a weekend showings of the new Twilight movie?  The man, Blaec Lammers, was trying to follow in the footsteps of "James Holmes' alleged shooting at a midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado."  Lammers "allegedly purchased assault rifles and ammunition and planned an attack on a weekend showing of Twilight screening."

If this continues, the movie industry in particular will collapse. No one will want to go to the movie theaters in fear of being shot at.  The studios will lose substantial amounts of money and go under. The movie companies, the same companies that produce all the big television networks and music production companies at least, mainly own the main television networks. The results may impact all form of media, from television, to movies, to internet, to newspaper.  The results would be catastrophic.  The Internet will be the only thing that rises from the ashes of the death of pop culture.  The Internet, in the future, will be the only form of entertainment media.  Well, at least until the invention of direct-to-brain downloads and ocular screen implants.

Thanks,

Sean

SKYFALL! (Warning: Spoilers)

Whats up guys?  Sean here.

Last weekend, I saw Skyfall.  Wow.  Just, wow.  It was amazing.  I absolutely love the James Bond movies, and this was one of the top movies.  It has many dark aspect, just like the other two Bond films staring Daniel Craig.  Also, fitting with the 50th anniversary of the James Bond films this year, they have many connections with the older Bond films.  Skyfall reintroduced audiences to Moneypenny, Q, and a male M.  They also decided to include the most famous Bond car, the Astin Martin DB5.  Daniel Craig, as he was in the last two films, is great as James Bond.  The villain this time, Raoul Silva, real name Tiago Rodriguez, is played by Javier Bardem.

I highly suggest going to see this movie, even if you are not a fan of the James Bond movies.

Thanks,

Sean.
