#653 Re: Square Eyes » Lets post some mini-reviews and recommendations! :D » 11 Oct 08 :: 18:11

The Abyss  - A great sci-fi adventure with some of the best underwater sequences ever filmed. Plus with a nice message and a powerful ending.

Airplane! - The classic Zucker comedy that's still a laugh riot 20+ years later.

Alien - Probably the best sci-fi horror film ever made.

Aliens - A great follow up to Alien, that has some of the best action sequences ever. Plus with Weaver's Oscar nominated performance.

Armageddon - An enjoyable blockbuster with an emotional ending.

Back to the Future trilogy - One of the best sci-fi trilogies ever. With the first being the best imo.

Beauty and the Beast (Disney) - My favorite Disney animated film ever. Terrific songs. Plus an exciting and emotional ending.

Black Snake Moan - A strange movie. But with great performances by Jackson & Ricci.

Blade Runner - A terrific sci-fi film. Great performances by Ford & Rutger.

Blazing Saddles - One of my favorite Mel Brooks films ever.

Born on the Fourth of July - Terrific war film with what I think is Cruise's best performance.

The Brady Bunch Movie - One of the few times a movie based on a tv series worked. Great casting & Long's portrayal of Mrs. Brady is spot on.

The Bridge on the river Kwai - One of the best David Lean films. Terrific acting by Alec. Truly epic.

Chasing Amy Very good film.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - Great musical. Dick Van Dyke is great. But the real star is the car.

Christine One of the only John Carpenter films I like. In a weird way you feel sorry for Christine at the end.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind - One of the best Spielberg films. A true classic.

Courage Under Fire - Terrific film with great acting by Denzel, Ryan and Matt Damon.

The Day the Earth Stood Still - One of the best films from the 1950's. Rennie is great. Gort is terrfic.

Devil's Advocate - Very good film. Probably Reeve's best performance. Pacino is great as the Devil.

Die Hard 1 & 2 - Great action films. Willis is John McClane, nobody else could be.

Disturbia - A very good film. Sure it's a knock-off of Rear Window, but I liked it. Shia is very good. David Morse is just creepy and demented.

Dogma - My other favorite Kevin Smith film. Plus what other film would show you a shit demon.

Dragonslayer - My favorite dragon films. Just to think that the dragon isn't CGI is mind-boggling. What a dragon should look like. Classic.

I'll continue later.

Hulk is correct.

Next one:

An early 1980's film. These are not the main stars. However, the main star went on to become a household name.

Here is all the store exclusives.

I'm likely to get the Target set with the book. While the Best Buy set is neat with the skull replica, it will likely just sit on the shelf collecting dust.

#666 Re: Off Topic Stuff » Any electronic gadget nerds around? » 09 Oct 08 :: 14:53

Generally stick with brands that are well known and stay away from those that you never heard of before.

I would stay away from any electronics made in China. I once bought an ILO brand dvd recorder and after a year it just crapped out on me. I bought a Magnavox dvd recorder and after 2 years it works perfectly.

I haven't seen Love Guru yet, but Best Buy has it on sale for $15 next week, so I may buy it then.

I will say he is very funny in his appearances on SNL (Saturday Night Live). He does seem to have a natural talent for comedy, so I would hope that he does do more comedic roles in the future.

Here's a few eye candy shots that I found that some may enjoy.

1. Alpha Dog
2. Just Friends
3. The Girl Next Door
4. Freddy vs. Jason

#670 Re: Square Eyes » Welcome to the Whedonverse (Buffy/Angel/Etc Appreciation) » 07 Oct 08 :: 12:29

I just saw some season sets of Buffy and Angel at Walmart for $15 each.

Likely a Halloween promotion.

Hopefully I can snag some of the Buffy sets as I never got around to buying them.

Around here you need a car. Everything is miles away.

You brought up tires. It's very important to keep your tires properly inflated. If it goes completely flat you could really damage the rims and perhaps get into an accident.

Does the tires lose air slowly or quickly?

It could be the seal, the valve stem or perhaps something is in the tire like a nail. They do sell the fix a flat stuff that you could put into the tire. I did that on my back tire which was losing air slowly and it fixed the problem.

I had to buy 2 tires for my car about a month ago. A brand new one would have cost $87 installed. I found a place that would install 2 used tires for $85 total. Did that.

I don't know the weather conditions in Finland, but I would assume that they have all weather tires available. Couldn't you buy those?

My roommate is a guy and I swear I have never seen him even open the hood to check the fluids at all. He always takes his car in for everything.


I watched them put the starter in. It took them about 10 minutes to do and charged me $100 for labor. I could have done it myself, but don't have the place to do it. Couldn't do it while the car is parked on the street.

#675 Re: Off Topic Stuff » Randomness » 03 Oct 08 :: 22:15

Yeah!!

Got my car fixed today.

$65 for the tow and $290 for the repair.

Plus before this was $17 for the starter relay and $85 for a new battery.

So for a grand total of $457.00 over the past 8 days.

But I'm so happy that the car is running again.
