Dragon Blogger Review of Coraline

by

I have always been a fan of stop motion animations and particularly the dark macabre films of Tim Burton such as The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride. Coraline which is adapted from the book by Neil Gaiman is done in the same film style as these films and is brought to us by director Henry Selick, the same man who directed The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Lots of Paint.NET Plug-ins

by

I have scoured dozens of web sites and forums online to bring you a compilation of all Paint.NET Plug-in effects I have found from the various forums and sites.  All of these were found offered for free, and I am basically giving my fellow Paint.NET artists access to the same plug-ins so they don’t have to spend hours trying to find them on their own.

Dragon Blogger Review of Star Trek

by

I went into the movie completely blind of reviews and even anyones reaction to it. I set my expectations low and didn’t know if it would feel like a Star Trek movie, or would it disappoint the fans with the new direction of the universe. I will have to say, I was pleasantly blown away by how enjoyable the movie was. Most movies that deal with time travel either don’t end well or have tons … Read more
