The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey now has a full trailer and it looks like Peter Jackson still doesn’t suck at making movies so that’s definitely good news.

Being the iconic film-maker that he is; Peter Jackson is starting to document his film making via blogging and so far it looks like he is doing a real bang-up job on such a nostalgic tale so hat’s off to him. For those of you unfortunate folk who do not know The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is one of two films currently being shot that is based off of J.R.R. Tolkein‘s world renowned novel entitled The Hobbit which takes place in the same world (Middle-Earth) as the academy award winning Lord of the Rings Trilogy. The film will star titular character Bilbo Baggins played by Martin Freeman, Gandalf the Grey played by Sir Ian Mckellen and a small but very cheerful company of dwarves led by Thorin Oakensheild played by Richard Armitage. Given the delight-filled spirit of this whole thing lets take a look at incorrigible combo Bilbo Baggins and his dear and old friend Gandalf the Grey.

Game of Thrones is finally back and Thank the Gods because some of us have been waiting since Season 1 ended without eating food, sleeping, or going to the bathroom. Ya. It’s been rough. But the wait is finally over as HBO’s outrageously phenomenal epic fantasy series Game of Thrones returns for Season 2 this coming Sunday April 1st at 10/9c on HBO so strap your boots on folks ’cause it’s gonna be a good one. Funny thing about outrageously phenomenal series’ is that they tend to know whatsup. When I say know whatsup, what else would I be talking about other than the Four Basic Personality Types. And while we’re on the subject of the Four Basic Personality Types, let’s take a look at the Four Major Houses of Westeros.

Tacticians’ Skirmish

March 23, 2012 Kip Parent 4 Comments

With the summer creeping up and nerd-tastic San Diego Comic-Con approaching rapidly I think it’s high time we talked about the most anticipated film of 2012: The Dark Knight Rises. Christopher Nolan screened a four hour rough cut of the film recently for Warner Bros. meaning that the film does actually exist and it’s not all a big hoax. The Dark Knight Rises itself will be dropping a week after San Diego’s most coveted nerd festival ends (July 20) so people are speculating that the man himself Christopher Nolan will be making a personal appearance. Gotham enthusiasts speculate that a fresh new trailer should hit soon so stay posted. What exactly is The Dark Knight Rises all about you ask? Well basically, two Artisans going at it. Or more specifically, two Tactical Operators. Let’s take a look shall we.

Concrete Comradery

Just when you thought I wasn’t going to talk about The Avengers anymore. BAM. Dyads. Although these four basic personality types certainly have their conflicts, they also once in a while get along with one another. One such a heartwarming comradeship exists between fellow Marvel–supersquad members the Incredible Hulk and Captain America. Both superheroes are defined by their extraordinary physicality, but perhaps there is more behind these two than meets the eye. Let’s take a look.

Abstract Conflict

I know. The Avengers. And the Four Basic Personality types. We get it guys. Well you see the funny thing about these four basic personality types is that they interact with one another in a complex fashion. One of such a rivalry of course is that between Asgardian Princes Thor Odinson and Loki Laufeyson. This bitter and delightful conflict between brothers may indeed be fictional, but serves however to highlight the important characteristics of the age-old conflict between Rational and Idealist. Let’s go right on ahead then and take a look at this epic clash of abstract minds.

That Deep Bond of Rivals

March 18, 2012 David Keirsey Leave a comment

They appeared quite different one black, one white; one a quiet small town guy and the other an urbanite with a big smile.

But, they had a common obsession.

And a common Temperament: Artisan.

They were competitive. Very competitive — actually they both wanted to be the best, period.

Intergalactic Dyad

MIB³ released a new trailer this week and apparently these people aren’t very good at math because I don’t think MIB³ is an actual mathematical equation. Or is it? I don’t know. I’m not a mathematician. The third Men in Black installment will see both Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones return to their titular roles of Agent K and Agent J. Such a dynamic duo of course is CLASSIC Artisan/Guardian. Whether in a professional, romantic, or often comedic relationship, Artisans and Guardians find themselves paired up with one another far more than any other temperament. So let’s go right on ahead and take a look at this classic KTT duo.
