  1. Just got back from the theater and I was very impressed with this one. Some of the dialogue was a bit corny, but that was a minor setback compared to the excellence of the film as a whole. I agree with every positive aspect (the cave scene was phenomenal) that has been posted thus far, so I'll just take a minute to ask the analytical cynics... WHY all the hate? Yes, there were some bits that you'd find in your run of the mill romantic comedy, but you have to remember that the kids are 17 years old in this movie. That being said, their relationships and interactions were perfectly depicted. A movie doesn't always suffer from romantic elements. Get over yourselves and just enjoy the damn movie.
  2. Infomercials should be banned from television.
  3. I haven't been able to catch this one yet, but it was certainly at the top of my list for must-see summer blockbusters after thoroughly enjoying its predecessor. I make a habit of tuning out film critics, but it's hard to ignore an abundance of reviews with such negative bashing from every angle. From what I've heard, the consensus offers praise for the action scenes and special effects with distaste for the overall film, while these positive elements offer little as backing to a pitiful story line with a horrible script and terrible acting. Upon reading that "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is a noisy, underplotted, and overlong special effects extravaganza that lacks a human touch" from Rotten Tomatoes, I did a double take to make certain that I hadn't accidentally clicked on a link for one of the Star Wars prequels... Any thoughts, comments, reviews? Feel free to chime in.

  5. This is quite possibly the easiest poll question I've ever answered on this forum. Hell no.
  6. QUOTE (hunter @ Jun 12 2009, 11:31 PM) Sorry is it's already posted but my wife thought of this one. "I find I'm so excited, I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend, and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope." I already posted it a few pages back.
  7. "The making of a great compilation tape, like breaking up, is hard to do and takes ages longer than it might seem. You gotta kick off with a killer, to grab attention. Then you got to take it up a notch, but you don't wanna blow your wad, so then you got to cool it off a notch. There are a lot of rules. Anyway... I've started to make a tape... in my head... for Laura. Full of stuff she likes. Full of stuff that make her happy. For the first time I can sort of see how that is done."

  9. I'm glad you brought this issue to light, Puppetking. Surely no band that comes out of Canada can have any musical significance. I mean, their frontman looks like a witch and sings like a woman while their guitar player just fails miserably while trying to imitate Jimmy Paige. And the drummer, some Neil guy? If he got his nose out of those Lord of the Rings books he might have a chance at writing some halfway intelligent lyrics. Oh, and he clearly hasn't gotten the memo that you need to love every single one of your fans if you want to be a rock star.

I've never listened to Porcupine Tree, so I can't agree or disagree with that claim. I have heard they're very similar, though.

  12. I saw this movie a few days ago and was pleasantly surprised. I thought the plot unfolded nicely and there were several twists that I wasn't expecting. Excellent acting as well, but that's to be expected from Tom Hanks and Ewan McGregor. Oh, and on a little side note, I thought Ayelet Zurer was extremely attractive in this movie. I was unfamiliar with her before this film, but she was definitely easy on the eyes. Anyway, I haven't read the book, so my viewpoint is probably a bit more positive than those who have. All in all it's not going to be a film that will break any box office records, but it's well worth seeing if you dig drama/mystery/thriller flicks.
  13. QUOTE (Presto-digitation @ May 28 2009, 10:59 AM) Great Metallica record too. Ha, that's the first thing that came to mind when I read the title of this thread. For a second I thought it was posted in the wrong forum.
  14. The Twilight - Tempest in a Teapot They're a local Cleveland band, so the chances of anyone knowing of them is rather slim. I found out about them when they opened for Fiction Plane at The Agora last year. The show was excellent, and I ended up buying their album after the gig. Great album to listen to on a sunny summer day, really easy on the ears. You can preview a few songs and find out more about the album on their MySpace page. http://www.myspace.com/thetwilightcleveland Check it out. Hope you dig it.
