Sup. We're Monster and Slim. We are two mutated zombie movie watchers who love to eat movies. Monster likes movies with a lot of action, a good story line, and with lots of zombies. Slim likes movies with lots of blood, action, a good story that can be followed, and lots of hot women. Neither of us like movies that star Lindsay Lohan, Zac Efron, or Miley Cyris. But we Love Megan Fox!

Welcome to Macintosh


Monster here, I just watched the documentary “Welcome To Macintosh”. In this movie the viewer gets told the history of the company and see some crazy people.

Macintosh was started by two friends Steve Jobs & Steve Wozniak. There first computer, the Macintosh 2, was first sold in stores in 1977. The Macintosh company had several bad years after IBM reelected the first personal computer or PC as we know it now in 1981. It would be another decade and a half before Mack would be in the spot light gain. In 1994 Steve Jobs became CEO of the Macintosh Corporation. Shortly after the name changed to Apple Corporation. In 1995 the next world changing product was reelected the IMac.

The documentary contains many interviews and even a tour of a persons collection of Macintosh and Apple products. Some of the interviewees are Guy Kawasaki and Andy Herzfeld. the interviews is what made the movie so good and entertaining to me.

This movie gets the monster approval. Now go see it for your self.

Welcome to Macintosh


Slim here. Welcome to Macintosh is a documentary that was made by Rob Baca and Josh Rizzo. Although they weren't able to interview Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs, the people that they did interview helped explain the creation, development, and history of the Apple industry.

The documentary starts off by explaining how Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs basically revolutionized the technology world back in 1977, with the release of the Apple II. It then goes on to explaining how the Apple industry started developing and becoming more internationally recognized.

What caught my attention about this documentary was how they were able to interview big names in Apple's history and get their opinions on so many subjects. A few of the interviewees were Guy Kawasaki (originally responsible for marketing the Macintosh), Andy Herzfeld (a key member of the original Macintosh development team during the 1980s), and Jim Reekes (an expert in product strategy, competitive analysis, market driven requirements, and brand building).

The interviewees also talked about what might happen to Apple when Jobs leaves for good. They all agree that nobody can replace Steve Jobs and accomplish what he has accomplished, but eventually somebody will have to. Kawasaki says that if this new guy comes in thinking he's the new Jobs, then they're all done for. Hopefully he is wrong and the fall of Apple will never come.
