    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    Guess that explains the horrible trailers that made it look like the Hallmark movie of the week (the more recent trailers are better).

    Rock Band series - Rock Band 4 out now

    So, my RB2 Strat has been losing sensitivity, and lately it's been sort of unusable. I just fixed it with this mod, and it's great. The buttons are now very sensitive, and I love my guitar again. It's very easy, and I highly recommend it.

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    9 - Disappointing. I thought it was too blunt until the end, which was just weird. It's an alright adventure, I guess, but I didn't feel that it had "enough" of anything. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - I don't know why I watched this. I don't have any particular appreciation for The...

    Top 5 Movies of 2009

    Best Movies: 1) Up 2) Where the Wild Things Are 3) (500) Days of Summer 4) The Hurt Locker 5) Moon That's my best Oscar-ish list. Sadly, I haven't seen any of the indie darlings that might actually win best picture. I did see The Road, and I don't think it belongs anywhere near that list. And...

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    I need to post more often... Inkheart - A worse version of the ending of Futurama's "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9IrDH74CTM It's not all bad, but I've got say I really disliked Brendan Fraser. The movie takes itself far more seriously than he does, so he...

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    Leatherheads - Kind of boring. The focus is also scatter-shot - in the finale of the movie, the final football game, the new football commissioner is going to crack down on George Clooney's wild ways. But there hadn't actually been enough football in the movie to that point to know what his ways...

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    The Good Shepherd - A film in 15 decibels. This movie tries really hard to go for a Godfather level of epicness. It does a pretty good job. I think the movie's biggest problem is the dryness of the characters - everyone is really subdued for the entire film, which does not help in keeping it...

    Comcast to buy NBC (Annoucement this Thursday)

    For those worried about Fancast vs Hulu, Fancast pretty much is Hulu. Half of Fancast's content is literally from them. Moreover, NBC owns a large stake in Hulu, so Comcast will have a piece of them both. Granted, that might be worse since a lot of Internet denizens consider Hulu an alternative...

    Halo 3: ODST - Gen. Discussion & Info

    I'm mostly playing MW2 lately, but I'd like to get some more time out of this. I need Deja Vu and Endure, but I'll play whatever. Just send me a message here or on XBL so I know who you are. If I'm in a party in MW2, I probably won't come over, but you know, spam away.

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    10,000 BC - Everything that is wrong with Roland Emmerich movies. 2012 - Everything that is right with Roland Emmerich movies! If you want to make a movie with tons of special effects and no substance, this is how it's done. I don't think Independence Day holds up, and Stargate is better as a...

    Surprisingly The Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck Pt. 2

    What the hell? This conversation was just had! In Bruges - Quite great. When the film was out in theaters, I mocked my friend for liking it. I told him he just enjoyed being pompous about having actually been there. I'm not convinced that's untrue, but it is a good movie. Sweeney Todd - I...

    Anyone else love Sony's PS3 commercials?

    He's Jerry Lambert, playing Keven Butler. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1208801/

    The Adventures of Brisco County Jr $16.99 at Compusa

    Well, you can order it from Tiger Direct instead - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=2132005 I think I've only ordered once from TD's website, and I got what I ordered. Just don't expect to get any rebates, and hope you don't have to contact anyone...

    Anyone else love Sony's PS3 commercials?

    I love the new campaign. None of the arrogance of the old commercials - they actually make a case for their console while being funny as hell. Jerry Lambert - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1208801/

    Surprisingly the Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck

    Hitman - Timothy Olyphant is cool, but that's about all the movie has going for it. There's no reason for the prostitute, and certainly no reason for the almost-romantic subplot. Fortunately, 47 knows that, and seems to do something horrible to her every time she comes on to him. I would have...

    Surprisingly the Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck

    Ong Bak 2 - Acceptable for watching Tony Jaa beat the hell out of people. It tries for a plot told mostly through flashbacks, and none of it is very interesting. This is apparently a two-part movie, which I did not know going into it. Everyone in the theater was confused at the credit roll. Tony...

    Surprisingly the Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck

    Anatomy of a Murder - Pretty awesome for its dedication to realism. It was made in 1959, but has the audacity to discuss panties and rape. Jimmy Stewart is great as always. Juno - I agree with pretty much everyone I know that this movie gets a little bogged down in weird dialogue, particularly...

    Surprisingly the Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck

    Under Siege - Hm... a less good Die Hard at sea. So, Die Hard 2 at sea, I guess. Commando - Arnold Schwarzenegger murder people as John Matrix. Cindy is the most useless sidekick ever - John Matrix does not need a buddy to kill people. Coraline - Wow - one of the best looking movies I've ever...

    A universe from nothing... (for space/science nerds)

    Thanks for posting, it's an interesting lecture. A lot of the information reminds me of the BBC series "Atom." Part 3 discusses Quantum Electro Dynamics. http://ipb.quicksilverscreen.com/index.php?showtopic=51994

    Xbox Fall Preview Program 2009 (Now Active)

    Facebook might be good if the "Friends on Facebook" thing had anyone in it. Last FM is pretty nice. I'd probably use it if my Xbox was in the living room. On the error message: http://forums.xbox.com/29599307/ShowPost.aspx
