  1. Domino was horrendous. You can search my review like 6 months ago if that floats your boat.
  2. Is there any way to get it without the white frames on the paper?
  3. I was gonna do mine, and I think I narrowed it down to 100 movies while I was at my cottage. However, on further examination, I need to watch a few more movies before I post. Something just isn't right yet. However, I haven't seen many movies so far this summer, (I think, maybe, 1 or 2 movies that weren't new releases). And I'm booked solid for about the next six months, so secondaries like movie watching will be pushed out. I'll try to catch 1 older one a week still, and the 2 new releases. And then on days off, I will go wild and watch like 3 or 4 (a lot for me). Oh yeah, and How2PK, why do you have McDonalds in ur sig?

    No, it's not ture.

    I fail to see how it's irrelevant. I think, maybe, it's the most relevant thing.
  6. As much as I like ATI, you picked like the worst ones. I know that 1300 is not a good card at all. The 1600 is alright, but from that list, if you have the money, I'm pretty sure that a 7900GT is the best bet. BTW-do you mean this is going to go in your new computer, or to tide you over until you get your new computer.
  7. Oasis is by far the best band of the nineties, followed by Prozzak, then probably Fastball (and their one album that I know of, heh heh). Chumbawumba was fun too :).

    98 is good. It was officially supported on most games up until very recently, and is very stable. Could be easier to find, I'm not sure, but it's a very usable OS considering its age.
  9. LOTR movies are good, but somewhat overrated. Titanic is grossly overrated. X-Men (all), Spiderman (and 2), Pirates of the Caribbean all overrated. Pirates and Spiderman 1 are both pretty good, but still overrated.
  10. Snakes on a Plane: Just let me say first, that read the why, and not the what. This is easily the most well-made new movie I've seen in 2006. So here's the why: It has a clear goal in mind, in achieves it with utter brilliance, and is far more entertaining than anything else I've seen this year. There's never a dull moment, it combines well a feeling of fear and helplessness with purposeful humor, a thing most people don't seem to realise it's doing. With that in mind, it never really scares you. It makes you feel a bit uneasy, and I'll never pee on an airplane again, but the idea of snakes on a plane is really just a vehichle for which it can entertain you tremendously. And boy does it do that. It's so funny, so fun, so exciting; it's a campy dream. There's so many gruesome, hilarious deaths, extremely well written lines. They make it seem to the untrained eye that many of the line are serious; but you may be able to tell that they are making them for entertaining effect. None, or few of the lines are ultimate cheese, and the way many are said they can be taken as serious or comical. I can't believe how many people who seem to think that this was a movie that was made as a serious project, and it just ended up being unintentionally funny. This is pure, intentional entertainment, and I haven't had this much fun watching a new movie in a while. There's simply nothing I can say bad about this movie, because for what it was trying to do, it's about as perfect as you can get.
  11. To me it looks ridiculous, and far too many young males are doing it. I can sort of see someone older doing it, once they're sorta on their own, doing their own thing, doing it for their own reason. But I think it looks stupid when I see a mother with her 8 year-old-that-you-don't-know-what-kind-it-is, I just don't see why they would do that to their kids. On teens, I think it looks nearly as ridiculous, but I think it's OK for musicians. It comes with the territory. I have, and most likely always will have short hair. If I let it grow over 2 inches, I wouldn't be able to keep it clean.
  12. Three movies to report. The first is Mission: Impossible (the first). Meh, you get what you get. Neither disappointing nor intruiging. Second: Inside Man. Though this movie was kind of ridiculous, and had an extremely overdone type of story, it was very watchable, and I rarely looked at the clock. It was very forgettable, but it was easy and relatively fun to watch, and it was not particularly impressive nor depressive? Yeah, that probably makes sence. Third, and the one I know I'm going to take a lot of flak over. V for Vendetta: This movie was...Frustrating. That's the only way I can aptly describe how it made me feel. It seemed...Unoriginal and shallow. Though there's obviously no other movies around that really follow that particular stream, it just seemed like it was breaking bits and pieces off of other works and messily glueing them together. And that messy glue is an admonition (think I used that right) that's presented without any nuance. It could just be that I'm currently reading Nineteen Eighty-Four (many of you know what this is about), or that I just finished the game Fallout (which deals, among other things with the future and government biological testing that created some super-people, and others it destroyed/messed up). The action was fine, but seemed more like it was tacked on as something for people with a low attention span so that they would not completely hate this movie. This movie just didn't hit the spot for me, which was especially disappointing considering I've heard so many great things about it. P.S. I did, however, enjoy the blowing up of the Parliament buildings, which played out to the theme of "When Buildings Fall Down"..."The best part was when the buildings fell down!" Excellent, but stolen.
  13. Hehe, I did a poet study on the co-writter, Dennis Lee.

    About 25 CD's. Yeah, I'm living in the past.

    You do realise that it's camp, right?
  16. How much RAM do you have?
  17. The worst was when my parents got me up early for some reason. There were three items around me at the table during breakfeast: juice, juice glass, bottle full of multivitamins. Smart me, I fill the bottle of vitamins with juice, wasting them all, and still not getting any precious juice.
  18. I can't even remember any movies I've seen from 2006 that have been more than decent, so since I can't remember any, there couldn't have been anything special. The Oscars will be fine, all the good movies come out in October-December for them, and a lot of the time you never hear anything about those movies. I'm going to see Inside Man and V for Vendetta, everyone says they're good, and they better be.
  19. I can honestly say there are now no shows that I watch new episodes on a regular basis. There have been a few in the last few years that I liked, but they got cancelled. And up until about 3 years ago, I made it my business to watch every single new episode that came on, as well as roughly 3 reruns every single day. But the steady decline has really been showing especially lately (the last 3 seasons or so). Even though it's been downhill since about season 8. I also used to watch as many new episodes of Friends as I could when it was on, and Everybody Loves Raymond. I also watched 3 whole seasons of The Apprentice, and overally I watched about 8 shows where I watched them every week. But it's a rare occurance that I watch even an hour of TV a day anymore (unless you count being on the computer while you watch, I don't, I can't pay attention).
  20. Steam itself is free, you just pay for all the games, and when you install them you will install Steam.
  21. How could you not know what the X-Games are? A few years ago, they were huge. Which brings me to my point - I was watching some skateboarding a few weeks ago, and it's pretty much moved back out of fame and is again the obscure type of sport it used to be. Ever since like, Tony Hawk isn't really famous anymore, you never, ever hear about it. The less hardcore fans stopped caring, so did the media, and so did the game developers (the old Tony Hawk games were some of the highest rated games ever, now they are mediocre tops). It got me to thinking-what if you were a teen growing up at like age 12 right when skateboarding started becoming really popular a few years back. And you practiced every day, it got in the way of your social life, and you always dreamed you would be rich and famous. Then by the time you got there, people had moved on and it was a shadow of it's formal self. That would suck. You don't know your skateboarding :shame: Skateboarding has moved on from vert, even though no one in the mainstream knows it. People like Paul Rodriguez, Andrew Reynolds, Jamie Thomas, and Eric Koston have made millions off skating. There are plenty of pros and ams that are making 70+ thousand a year. That's exactly my point that no-one in the mainstream knows it. It's because we don't care anymore. And to statements against my previous comment...I guess my choice of words was bad. Not even that people wanted to be rich and famous (though, I am 100% positive that there are/were a lot of kids that were trying to be rich and famous like Tony Hawk, so they practiced a lot). Sure, there are people who are doing it for art, or for a hobby, or for sport, but I'm sure some of those also intended to go pro and make a hefty living out of it. Sure, the best might be making 70+ thousand a year, but that's a pittance compared to what I bet Tony Hawk was making, with his advertising contracts/games based on his name. Whether or not he's as famous as a few years ago doesn't really matter, as his name still commands a moderate amount of attention. My point was that people in every sport are doing it because they love it, but also want to be a respected pro. And in an unfortunate turn for skating, it's pretty much vanished from the mainstream (again).

    At McDonald's we had a Pirates of the Carribean promotion, so everytime someone ordered a combo, I had to ask of they wanted to Pirate Size it. Then I get to see a confused reaction, which in hindsight is somewhat comical, but at the time it was painful. :wall:
  23. Hostel :thumbsup: .
  24. Two times I can remember, were when I get up too fast after lieing down for too long. The first time I got out of bed after lieing in there after waking up. I got up and speedwalked to the door, and right as I reached for the knob, I started to faint and I sorta lost all sences. All I heard was a smash, and then I remember feeling 'lag'. By that I mean, when I was lieing on the ground and lifted my head up, my brain was going at like 4 frames-per-second. Then, it felt like I had a thousand pins in my skin all over my body (kind of like when you're foot falls asleep). It was odd. The second time wasn't as severe. I was watching TV, and I got up to close the blinds. By the time I got the blinds I had that same faint feeling. I started...I can only describe it as having convulsions. I hit a lamp off a ledge, and had enough brain capacity to keep it from falling by squeezing it between my crazy shaking body and the wall. This proves that I never actually lost conciousness, but I was definately not right in the head their for a minute. Everything was...cloudy, and I got that same pins all over feeling.
  25. I was outside for 10 hours yesterday, and all I got was toasted. Nicely toasted.
