I have much time on my hands in Berlin now so I’ve been to the movies. I watched two classics in a charming little theater in the Kastanienallee, Delicatessen and Taxi Driver and two current Hollywood blockbusters in the UCI Colosseum multiplex theater, WALL·E and Burn After Reading. I will not talk so much about the films themselves because that has already been done by people way more proficient than me. No, I will focus on my experiences around and inspired by the movies. With no spoilers, as usual.
A premiere here on the Promenade Blog: my first video post! And it’s a rant about the new Alone in the Dark by Eden Games. So if you can stand my voice and my thick accent when talking English then feel free to click the play button. If you prefer to read and click some links: No problemo, what is said can be read here as well. A weekend well spent…
Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: No, I don’t hate the game, in fact it’s quite entertaining. But I needed to vent my anger that I am unable to handle the game controls well. And I die a lot!
Ever heard of Gilgamesh? He is the hero of the world’s oldest epic. Gilgamesh becomes a hero on his journeys.

No spoilers, as usual.
If you want to see a pair of tits in a non pornographic context then take an arts class or watch art films. Lisa and I went to see David Lynch‘s (not so) newest film INLAND EMPIRE (all caps) in the Rechbauerkino in Graz today (actually yesterday). Because these little artsy theaters don’t sell popcorn or nachos we went to the Cineplexx first, that was swamped with rednecks from the peripherals of Graz and got us a hunk of nachos with cheese and salsa for a bunch of money. Funny thing was that we even made it back downtown in time and got seats in the second row 1. And then INLAND EMPIRE started.
Yes, that’s right: Microsoft finally decided to redesign Solitaire for Windows since it’s first appearance in 1990. While downloading 539.1 MB worth of Updates I decided to write this short review. Now with pictures and hence even more pleasing to the naked eye. This is an updated version of the article I posted yesterday evening, but still I decided to keep its timestamp — the good ol’ times….

On Monday evening Lisa and I visited the Kushi Hachi Japanese Restaurant in Salzburg and I’d like to tell the whole wide world about it.
