Interesting. The battle between Godzilla and Pumpkinhead seemed very bloody and brutal. PH seemed to be the better in physical battling, Godzilla superior in beam weaponry.

Overall:

Good to see you enjoyed the battle between Godzilla and pumpkinhead, What did you think of the way I ended the chapter with the winged Pumpkinhead?.

Do you think this story contains more of a horror feel when it began?.

Also are you wondering what that "Stronger weapon" is?.

Good ending. I wasn't expecting PH to grow wings.

Next chapter is going to have Godzilla fight a fast flying Pumpkinhead, if I might add Pumpkinhead is stronger then all Godzilla's flying foes.

Yes.


It will appear in chapter 6, its going to be some sort of surprise.

I see. How did PH get so gigantic? Maybe I need to go back and read the story again.

I did. It seemed that PH had his growth spurt after absorbing energy from one of his human victims(Chris?). Correct? heyo

It was the way Pumpkinhead was summoned also, in the films he is summoned for revenge for people, here however he was summoned in a new way by mistake, since PH is a demon, he should have unknown powers, after killing the summoner (Chris), he got more power and was able to increase his size.

Since its a fanfic, I wanted something new for Pumpkinhead, I have to say I succeeded.

Despite some shots of rain the last few weeks the record setting drought continues here in parts of the southeastern United States, including Atlanta, GA. We've had three significant rainfalls in the last three(3) weeks, and the average rain total from these three rainfalls was about 2 inches. The problem: the region remains about 18-19 inches below normal for the year. Lake Lanier, north of Atlanta and the city's primary source for drinking water, is 19 feet below normal.

A climatologist at the Weather Channel recently likened Atlanta's recent precipitation to "watering one's grass with an eyedropper", in regards to the rain that fell and what's actually needed. freak out

Climatologists in general are predicting a drier than normal winter for Atlanta and a likely repeat of this past summer's extraordinarily hot and dry summer. thumbs down

Click the link to read more about the historically low water levels of Lake Lanier, located north of Atlanta, GA: http://www.att.net/s/editorial.dll?bfromin...onal+tglink&ck=

So far there have been 15,000 jobs lost(or eliminated) in the (plant) nursery and landscaping industry, here in Georgia alone, since January of this year. In Atlanta Pike Nursery, one of the most recognizable and successful nursery companies in Atlanta, with stores throughout the city, recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, blaming the drought for its financial woes. Most landscaping companies in Atlanta have suffered a drop off in business ranging anywhere from 25-33%, both in maintenance and installation services.
Another nursery, Hastings, the oldest nursery company in Atlanta, is now up for sale by its owner. It's landscaping department closed down completely about two months ago.

Well since you asked and it's good timing....here's an update :D Just completed the first half of training (it's broken into 2 parts - General Criminal Investigation Training and then Agency Specific Training) and it wasn't that...definitely had some rough moments but nothing that was unbearable (well the food is pretty unbearable lol). I started the 2nd half ( the agency Specific Training) a week ago and it's definitely a lot harder than the first half so I'll be working extra hard after the Christmas Break.

But as for an idea of how the training is....well there is a physical training part and an academic part. One of my days was this: Hit the weight room for 40 to 50 minutes, then run a 1.5 miles and arrest someone and give them a full search. After that, take an exam and after that sit through 4 hours of class time. Each day is always something different and it only gets harder after each day.

Well hope that gives everyone a small idea of what I've gotten myself into lol Take care and Happy Holidays everyone xmas smiley

Sounds pretty demanding Trent, but all the same Im sure its a character building experience. My time in Army basic training wasnt exactly enjoyable, but I learned things about myself I never knew. Good luck with the second half of your training and enjoy Christmas break.

I really want to see Aliens vs Predator: Requiem, since it seems very fun, I was a bit disappointed when I saw Alien vs Predator (Got a 5/10 from me).

Is anyone else here going to see it?.

I'm going to see it with a friend of mine when he gets back in town, either Monday or Tuesday of next week.

Fangoria has given AVP-R a generally negative review, referring to it as repetitive and predictable. Do reviews of movies ever influence whether you see movie in a theater, Matthew? heyo

Not really, I watch films to judge for myself, not the critics or whoever, I judge films myself, remember I review films which are said to be bad, but I think about what problems they had, some films I cant really get into so I might give them a negative review, like Rob Zombie's Halloween.

Until now. ;)

Your best, IMO: Freddy Vs Godzilla. Honorable mention: Godzilla Vs Pumpkinhead. :)

Matthew, I want you to make time, somewhere in your schedule, to read some stuff I'm writing down, and will post in "chapters", in the "Packmule's Pen" thread of the Fan Submission: Writing forum.

You're going to like, I think, The Boogeyman and Canid. The first one is a spooky, scary story that will remind you of a "Twilight Zone" episode. The second one is a straight ahead, gory, violent horror story. noddy

Though I have these scheduled out at one per month I'm going to try like hell to get them all posted by the end of January or the first week in February at the latest.

I would have to say this one surprises me, since I think that JJvsG is one of my least successful story's.

Well IMO my choice would have been my RvB story, since I think its characters and of course the Story-me is done well, plus that little twist I put in near the end.

Also... in every comedy I just have to put in Michael Jackson.

Here's an interesting link I found while doing some research on the history of movie aspect ratios. It does a great job, I think, of explaining the differences between the widescreen aspect ratios: http://www.thedigitalbits.com/articles/ana...creenorama.html
