    South Park Season 10

    I don't think that the censored part was a joke...some people have been saying that it was done on purpose to make it funnier, but it didn't feel like it was in the spirit of the show; it wasn't funny at all...just made me kind of sad. I can't believe that it's the 21st century and Comedy...

    Big Brother 6 - ongoing thread

    :laugh: Ivette looked like she was going to shit her pants...why was she surprised? I wish I could see her face when she realizes that while she was wasting time buying into the "Friendship" scam, Maggie was playing her like an absolute FOOL. It wasn't so much that Maggie was a great player...

    Well...that was depressing.

    Big Brother 6 - ongoing thread

    RE: Saturday's episode Another bizarre showing by the nerd herd. April is finally coming a little loose from Maggie's death grip and figuring out that Janelle isn't so bad...but what was with that whole bit about plastic surgery?? She went on castigating Janey for wanting do redo her boobs...

    Big Brother 6 - ongoing thread

    :laugh: Me too, especially considering the weird tirades she kept unleashing on Rachel, behind her back of course, about being a poor sport. The whole lot of them demonstrated the worst sportsmanship of the game so far during that little episode. I loved how Janelle just took it all in...

    Keith Richards may not be in PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 2 &3

    ...and? It's a comedy, I'm supposed to chuckle. Johnny Depp doing a Keith Richards impression to Keith Richards has the potential to be 100 times funnier than just some older actor with an eye patch saying "argh".

    How are they in any way, shape or form more nerdy than the other team?

    Six Feet Under Season 5

    Unfortunately. Nate revealed himself to be a pretty big prick this season in my estimation. Unadulterated personal happiness was his goal, no matter who he had to step on to achieve it. I don't think that he was a classicly decent guy at all. I'm supposed to accept his cheating on, and then...

    Carnivale (Season 2)...

    I won't be canceling my HBO subscription, but I'm very disappointed. If the ratings are low and the show is too expensive...fine, I can deal with that more or less. However, don't shovel me a big, steaming pile of shit about the show being canned because it came to a natural conclusion and...

    *** Official THE INCREDIBLES Discussion Thread

    I had feelings similar to Pete. The adult aspects like the sexual innuendo, "take a shot when..." drinking game, not-so-mild violence, etc. were all surprising but welcome. However, it *did* feel a bit too long and the whole spoofing of superhero devices is getting a little old after the...

    Simpson lip sync on SNL

    If you're defending the girl, please see one of the first episodes of her reality TV show that airs on MTV. She was in the booth trying to sing and it was just brutal. Everyone around was just smirking and biting their tongue. The fact that they played that on MTV just floored me. They...

    Just saw Team America

    I think their obsessions with slamming celebrities like that is weird too...but hey, they're like the only ones who have any power who are doing it. That's a heavy load to bare. When actors try and be hip and satirical they make fun of their profession (Get Shorty). Rarely, if ever, do...

    Fox Canada goes bilingual cover CRAZY!

    How do we have until American DVDs have bilingual covers as well?

    Just saw Team America

    Funniest film I've ever seen in a theater. I was at least giggling through 99% of the entire thing and much of the time I was rocking back and forth in my chair laughing hysterically. There were literally only two or three scenes I wasn't amused by and they were all really short insert type...

    Australians and the perfect American accent

    Speaking of regional US accents, Frances McDormand had a dead-on northern Minnesota accent in Fargo. The only thing that was off were some of the local expressions and such, which were pretty exaggerated (Darn tootin!, etc.). Almost all of the natives got real huffy and offended back when the...

    *** Official EXORCIST: The Beginning Discussion Thread

    It was one of those movies where I thought "hmm, that wasn't too bad" to myself after I saw it, but after further reflection I really couldn't think of anything that was particularly good, either. It was mostly boring, the gore was overdone to the point of being silly, and the "boss fight" was a...

    The 2004 Emmy Discussion thread

    Cocksuckers! Ian McShane was a shoo-in, screw Martin Sheen. When is the Academy's hard-on for The West Wing going to go limp? Jesus. And how did The Reagans get FOUR FREAKING NOMINATIONS? Were there only five made-for-tv movies this year or something? Did they need to pad the categories...

    **Official FAHRENHEIT 9/11 Discussion Thread - READ GUIDELINES BEFORE POSTING!***

    Well, that depends. The dictionary definition of documentary is pretty strict ("of, relating to, or employing documentation in literature or art; broadly : FACTUAL, OBJECTIVE (a documentary film of the war)"), but since it's neigh impossible to be purely objective from a human being's...

    *** Official VAN HELSING Discussion Thread

    I thought that it was okay...a mixed bag, like most other summer movies. Even with the terrible screenplay, I thought that Richard Roxburgh did a good job with Dracula, and even Frankenstein was decent. Of course the effects were the stars in this one, and they were fantastic. There was only one...

    *** Official KILL BILL: VOLUME 2 Discussion Thread

    I know that this is a film filled with genre cliches, but this conventional cliche would've been pretty uninteresting in my eyes. In almost every other movie where the wife kills the bastard husband she has a moment of pause and then pulls the trigger (or whatever), like we're supposed to be...

    Have you ever not bought a movie cause you were embarassed?

    I was only embarrassed once. I was buying some schlock exploitation horror title from Best Buy and the girl at the register picked it up, loudly read the description on the back for all to hear, and gave me a little 'pfft' sound and look. I don't know what her problem was, but it seemed like she...

    X-box and projector question.

    The Epson Home 10 lamps can be had for around 150-175 bucks online. The lamp life is 2000 hours for vibrant, living room, and theatre video settings, and 3000 hours for theatre black. I play a lot of games on the vibrant setting, so it'll probably be closer to 2000 hours for me. The games look...

    Simple DVI question:

    Can VGA and DVI both be outputting the signal at the same time, or do I need to choose one or the other? If they can both put out video at the same time, is a VGA/DVI card capable of a dual monitor setup (i.e., having the desktop stretch across two screens)?

    Epson Home 10 Review

    Sorry, I've been away for a few days. The Home 10 is marked to $1079 with free shipping at JR.com. I actually called a different projector retailer that is fairly well known around HT forums and asked if they'd price match that, and they told me that it was probably stolen or busted to be...

    Is there a policy against linking to retailers? Because I found the Home 10 for $1,079.88 shipped. :)

    Lamp life on Sanyo Z1?

    That's absolutely true regarding unsatisfied customers making their voices heard more loudly and often. However, it seems to me that out of all of the people with complaints there are more Z1 owners than any other. I could be skewing it too far to one side for whatever reason, but the seemingly...
