I was worried the sound in the arena would be shitty but I was pleasantly surprised to find out I could hear pretty much everything clearly. The new songs were awesome live and I love when they put a drum solo in the middle of a song and then come back and finish the song after the solo (i.e., as they did in Where's My Thing?). Another great show. Can't wait for the next tour. Only part I didn't like was in Analog Kid when Geddy changed "baseball cap" to "Phillies Cap." As a Mets fan that made my skin crawl for second.

i'm not a trek fan but i enjoyed the movie a lot. i wrote a review (link below) if anyone's interested. any feedback would be appreciated. thanks. Star Trek Review by Tom G

I wouldn't say that. You've named a bunch of films which have been recognized with nominations. Yep. Has anyone seen Slumdog Millionaire? I had never heard of this movie prior to the Golden Globes. Is it really that good? No

QUOTE (treeduck @ Feb 1 2009, 02:54 AM) Let's keep this simple: I'm not interested in this film because first of all I'm not interested at all in the Indian version of the quiz show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire." I'm also not interested in the UK version or the US version either, nor the martian or saturnian versions if they're out there. So seeing a film about it really doesn't perk my interest in the slightest, in fact I don't want to see anything that reminds me of that show ever again. it's not about the show. it's about how the contestant knows the answers because he's been lucky enough to learn them throughout his rough life. relatively little time actually takes place on the game show set. try to see a movie before you bash it

i didn't like it very much. i thought it was an overrated cidade de deus ripoff that didn't have the guts to be as real as cidade. sometimes it's very real and depressing and then it's a fairy tale where the main character chases after the girl he thinks he loves (he seems to love her because she's the only female character in the movie). imo, milk and the wrestler were much better (especially the wrestler).

if you haven't seen The Wrestler yet go see it asap. if you have seen it, what did you think?

johan is god. period. the cubs are beating the brewers pretty easily. they haven't gotten any hits off of ted lilly. the filthies are beating the nats 3-1. if they win they win the mets are eliminated from the division. this is exciting but nerve-wracking at the same time.

anybody have faith in the mets anymore? johan is pitching satuday against florida. there's still a chance we can make the playoffs but there's also a chance we'll be eliminated tomorrow.

Getting the call right, then asking the other idiots for help and having some old f**k change the call to the wrong one. That blind old bastard did not see shit, what the hell would he over turn the call of the umpire standing on the left field line ? Bring in instant replay ! Its time to get with the program, these umps suck !!! Thank god the Mets smoked the Yankees so it it did not matter in the end. Thank god for the umpires, morons ! I was shouting about that last month on the MLB thread when a Cubs ball that clearly hit the foul pole on an HD replay was called a homer by one ump and no other umps saw it to over-rule and the Cubs won by one run. I just heard on the tv yesterday that the owners were discussing that and it seemed the majority want HR replay, and it may be reality as soon as next year! Good. A clearly written rule for HR only replays. i don't really think that it should be just for home runs. bang-bang plays at second, catches that may have been trapped, plays at the plate, and many other kinds of plays are just as important as home runs. why should just home runs be reviewed. that's why i don't think they're should be replay

without doubt one of the worst movies i have ever seen. most of the reasons for my opinion have already been stated though.
