No Longer in Rehab; Comic-Con 2011 Rage

What can this blogger say about Ms. Winehouse and news about her death? Is it the fact that he has never listened to any of her other songs other than, what he calls her one-hit wonder “Rehab”? Maybe he can talk about how she could have saved herself from getting involved with drugs by not being with the wrong people and staying in rehab though she had cancelled performances just because of her getting assistance to combat her addiction? Dying so young is heartbreaking. Then again, I feel sorry for the families who have lost their loved ones younger than that age than a celebrity. Think about it. Almost every day, we hear about another celebrity trying to stay away from the drugs, alcohol, or another full-time relationship. This news is a shock, but it’s also nothing new. R.I.P. Amy Winehouse. Your music touched so many people even if I’m not a big fan of your work. Maybe I’ll give the other songs a listen.

I’m disgusted with G4’s coverage of Comic-Con 2011 so far. Besides growing tired of seeing more slave Leias along with Heath Ledger’s Joker from The Dark Knight with Batman: Arkham Asylum, hearing a reporter asking attendees if some people pinched their bums increased a lot of rage. The reporter could have created better questions to ask them such as how long it took the attendees to create said costumes and the reasons why they became the characters (that were asked as of now), and their likes/dislikes about the panels. If I was at Comic-Con, I would have done a much better job with getting as much coverage about new films, comic books, and other forms of media. I would also get as many photos that would rival the Otakon 2011 albums (on Facebook since August 2010; coming to Flickr). Speaking of conventions, there will be coverage of Otakon 2011 mostly all photos if not news straight from the panels. Checking out the cosplayers is much better than sitting on the bum listening to professionals from anime licensors, fashion designers, and others discuss about future releases, trips to Japan, and popular Japanese fashions trends. If only I had an iPad, maybe coverage from the panels would hit the web much, much faster.
