Well I went out to the movies tonight and saw Saw V. I did enjoy the movie however I thought I was the weakest of the series. This one was more story oriented and not just the usual torture porn that the other movies were. I think if you enjoyed the other movies then this one is worth seeing.

Lakeview Terrace Review
I went and saw the new movie Lakeview Terrace today. I thought it was quite good. Samuel L. Jackson did a great job and everyone else in the film were pretty good as well. You could really feel for the characters. They felt very believable. One thing that I really liked about this movie was that the situations were not so over the top that you could really get behind them actually happening. This movie reminds me of the movie Unlawful Entry. I really liked that movie as well but in way it was a little bit too much over the top. If you’re looking for a good flick to catch sometime then Lakeview Terrace would be the way to go.
Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow from G.I. Joe Movie
Here’s a drawing of these two great characters from the upcoming movie. Ray Park is playing Snake Eyes. I wonder who’s going to get the part of Storm Shadow.
Hulu
Yesterday I finally received my invitation to hulu.com. I remember signing up for this a couple of months ago and I was starting to think I would never hear back from them. What this site allows you to do is watch TV shows and movies. They’ve got a pretty good selection of shows right now. Shows from NBC,FOX, as well as others, both currently running and classic are available. Navigating the site is pretty simple and easy to find what to watch. The quality of the video was pretty good and I only ran into a buffering issue once in the 3 or 4 shows I’ve watched this far. Right now the site is free which is good but you do have to sit through some ads when watching a show. I was viewing the site in linux so the video player would not let me do full screen, so I was a bit disappointed by that. Overall I was pretty impressed with the site and it’s nice to be able to catch up on some of the shows I’ve missed. I don’t think this site will catch on with most people though cause they can’t watch the videos on their TV, only on their computer.
First Rambo IV Feature Trailer!
HOLY SHIT!!! is all I can say about this trailer. When I first heard there was going to be another Rambo movie, I thought that the movie studios must be out of their damn mind. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a really no nonsense action film with the big action hero delivering the gratuitous killing but it looks like Stallone is going to deliver up some ass kickin’. Yeah the movie is probably going to suck donkey balls but I’m excited to see this have the movie has the kinda action the trailer was showing. Don’t let me down Sly, you’re my only hope.
Young Master
I picked up a copy of one of Jackie Chan’s excellent martial arts flicks called Young Master yesterday. If you haven’t seen it and are a fan of Jackie Chan or martial arts flims in general then this is certainly a must see. The fights in this are very well coreographed and this flims is full of them. I really love the brutal end fight that lasts at least 20 minutes.
There’s no one like Chuck Norris.
Now this isn’t something new on the net but it’s a good laugh once in awhile when you need one.
Here are some facts about Chuck Norris you may not have known.
40 Year Old Virgin
I just saw “40 Year Old Virgin” last night and I must say that is one of the funniest movies I’ve seen in a long time. There are non stop laughs all the way the through. Stephen Colbert is a much funnier guy than I ever realized. After seeing this movie now I have hope for “Evan Almighty”, which is the sequel to “Bruce Almighty”. which is going to star Stephen.
RetroJunk Frappr Map
Well I’m a fan of the website RetroJunk and I’ve been pretty active on the forums there so I thought it would be nice to create a Frappr map so that we can all see where everyone else is at.
Just in case you didn’t know, RetroJunk is a website about all things retro. Mostly TV, movies, and games but they cover everything. I really enjoy the forums and the community is certainly fill with some cool people. The community there kinda reminds me of my old IRC days where people you chatted with were cool to talk to and not just dumb freaks looking for cybersex.

Just a random thought.
In the movie Independance Day, didn’t anyone else find it totally unbelieveable that a guy could write a virus on a Macintosh that would be able to interface and infect the computer system of an alien species?
