Wow, this looks absolutely incredible! Seriously, this video alone should be an entire Star Wars spinoff film. Unfortunately, this is only the trailer for a Star Wars: The Old Republic expansion, titled "Knights of the Fallen," but it looks so good. The people behind these Old Republic cinematics need to be making animated films or something. The atmosphere and cinematography is top notch, and the visuals in Old Republic’s era style almost looks like what Abrams is doing with Episode 7. The trailer tells the story of, apparently, freelance Force Users that kill both Jedi and Sith, and in 5 minutes, it makes me wish I could see more. Disney really needs to make an Old Republic spinoff film since it provides them the freedom to do whatever they want without conflicting with the pre-existing cannon. What do you think of this? Should there be Old Republic films? Please comment below and let me know, and if you missed it, click here for my Jurassic World review.

You may remember my Doctor Who speech that I made for Speech Class, which I posted about a few months ago, and this is the second speech for that classic, where I discuss stress and how watching movies can help you relieve stress. Since I had to do the speech in one long take, my delivery is not as refined as I would like, but I still received a 98/100 for the speech. Looking back at this video, I look a lot different without a beard, haha. On a personal note, watching movies, television, and anime, along with writing, is the main, and often the only, way that I am able to relieve stress. It might not work for everyone, but for me, it does. Please tell me what you think of the video in the comments, and check back tomorrow for when I give you six reasons why you should be watching the best show on television.

Here it is, my video tribute to some of my favorite films. Please watch the video and tell me what you think. I have been working on this video since 2011, constantly making changes that reflect the new movies that I have seen to make an even better video. I know it starts a little slow, but starts it to pick up speed later on. My goal was to use a collection of clips from my favorite films and make them flow, particularly the later half of the video where I use more action scenes rather than quotes. This is only the first of two tributes that I am going to post. The video covers many of my most favorite films, excluding the Dark Knight, because I wanted to use it in my second video, which is coming soon. Also watch it in HD, it is even better that way.
If you like it, please share it on Blogger, Facebook, Twitter, ect.
To go along with my video, I have devised a challenge or tag of sorts for you to list your favorite films. Basically, within the next few weeks, you list your favorite films in a post on your blog relatively similar to my Top 100 Movies list, however it can be as short or as long as you would like. After everyone posts their favorite movies, I will make a post linking to everyone's favorite movie posts and maybe adding some personal commentary about each list. I know there are a lot of blogger who do not participate in tags like these, if not, please just tell me your opinion of my video.
Here are the rules for the challenge/tag:
1: List favorite movies (in any format that you like and the movies do not have to be in order).
2: Post my video tribute (above) somewhere in your post.
3: "Tag" other bloggers (optional).
4: Comment telling me that you might want to try the post.

Here is a hilarious dubbing of The Dark Knight Rises. While I have a unique sense of humor, and many do not find what I like funny, this is my favorite video on YouTube. It is ridiculously funny and has a great sense of humor, that I just can't get enough of. I have literally seen it more than 20 times over the last 4 months. Hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I do and warning it is packed with spoilers. Also there is another video Dark Knight Rises Holiday parody by video the Auralnauts, which I enjoy almost as much. Check back tomorrow for my review of Gettysburg.

Here is part 2 of our video answers to your questions. Something I forgot to say yesterday was that this video is unedited and filmed completely in one take. That is why we made some errors, however it turned out humorous. Thanks everyone for all the positive and encouraging comments, it is appreciated. Please comment with your thoughts below. Also a big thanks to Jamie and Kayla for inspiring us to make this video.
1. If you could make a movie of your own, what do you think it would be about? Would it be based off an older film/book/comic/other? Which actors/actresses would you love to work with on the project?
2. Do you have a favorite 'era' or decade in which films were made (for example, the boom of spaghetti westerns in the 1960's)?
3. What do you think makes a film "timeless"? Is it the plot, themes, characters, or a perfect storm of all three? Are there any more recent films that you think will eventually become "timeless"?
4. What video games, comics, or books would you want to see be made into a film or film series, and why?
5. Pick your favorite hero and your favorite villain, and have them duel. Who wins?
What is Tony Stark's resume beyond being a genius, Billionaire, PLAYBOY, Philanthropist?
I know this might be out of your expertise as a Marvel guy, but how many villains does Superman have besides Lex Luthor and General Zod?
Do you think Boromir is on the same level of coolness as Faramir, or is one better and why? (i.e. boromir first mortal to regret desiring the ring, Faramir only full mortal to fully and outright reject it)
(For the purposes of the question Aragorn doesn't count b/c his lifespan is three times longer than theirs already)
(use the EEs for comparison)
1: Could the LOTR films have been altered in any way to make them both even better as movies and even more true to the text?
2. Did Orlando Bloom "ruin everything" in comparison to what Legolas is like in the books?
2. Disregarding the magic abilities, do you prefer Gandalf the Grey or Gandalf the White?
purely as a movie scene, do you think The Last Ride of the Rohirrim ranks up there with the some of the best cheer/sadness movie scenes you've ever seen?
What does your top ten list for historical fiction look like?

Here is my video answering your questions and after hours of editing the video is finally posted! Because YouTube only lets me post a maximum of 15 minutes of video, therefore it will be released in two parts, one today and another tomorrow. I added pictures, movie clips and captions to keep the video interesting and maybe even humorous. Due to the quality of our microphone, there are some strange buzzing sounds. Also I was difficult to understand because I was nervous; hopefully you could understand what my brother and I said. Below are you questions that are covered in the video. Please comment below with your thoughts about our video, but please remember this first time on camera.

We all know Darth Vader is your favorite character in all fiction but like me you don't really care for Anakin. Do you see Vader and Anakin as the same person or as two different people? Why? And do you think Anakin was the greatest Jedi or does someone else deserve that title, like Obi-Wan?
If one was to start watching Dr Who, where should they start? At the very beginning or with Dr Nine?
Call of Duty or Halo?
What are some things you think could get messed up in the Star Wars universe now that Disney owns Lucasfilm and will be making more movies? Do you have high hopes that the old actors will return for their roles?

Can you put your favorite avengers in any sort of order or is that too hard?
