The whole operation part had me rolling my eyes. A guy with a 3' long pipe in his chest is just wheeled out of the ICU? And Chaka can visit him in the ICU? As far as I know, only family members would be allowed in there. He is brought down to the OR, but it is closed (for some dumb reason)...
Instead of the show title being "Furt", shouldn't it have been "Kinn"? Would make more sense now that Kurt and Finn are step-brothers. What a dis-jointed episode. The stories were all over the place. The whole "Sue marrying herself" was ridiculous, and having Kurt put together the entire...
Has anybody got this in a B & M store yet? I went searching on Tuesday at Best Buy and Walmart and neither retailer had it in stock. The Best Buy website says unavailable in-store for all the stores near me (although I know that that could mean they only have two copies). --John
I absolutely love this set, but what drives me crazy (and I didn't see it mentioned in the review) was the extremely long load times for the main menu! Not too big of a problem playing it through my PS3, but my Panansonic BD-35 has fits with this. --John
One of the quirks of the Best Buy on-line inventory system is if there are less than 3 copies of an item, the system will show it as "unavailable". It's best to check your store personally, or give them a call to double check on availability. Mike: Put me in the list of people that think...
Congrats, Lucy! Hope you enjoy your prize package. I know I enjoyed mine from a couple of years ago. And I'm glad I wasn't on the bottom like last year! :-) --John
It's interesting to look at other people's lists at this point and try to predict who has the best chance of winning the Challenge this year. It always seems like there is ONE contestant that hangs on longer than many people expected (Hello, Tim and/or Aaron!). Those are the contestants that...
RAF:
I posted my top 12 by mistake, because I have a side bet with my wife (we both picked our top 12)! I deleted the last two names on my original placeholder spot. All the other names stayed in the same spots. And no...I won't tell what the winner of our side bet gets!
--John
Wow! So many questions answered tonight!!!!
Why do I watch the promos for the following week?........
I did like the episode very much (have always liked any Sayid/Nadia story line), but again we are left questioning character motives and the consequences of their actions (in both...
Good point, Holadem. Maybe it's not a plot hole, but more of a loose end that was never really tied up. The reveal about the above character and how she met one of the other characters pre-island time threw me for a loop. I wish it was resolved, but I can live with any direction the writers...
I thought the Glee DVD set was green-lit before the show got the last nine shows approved. As I understood it, the set was already in the works, so if the show bombed, they could have released it as "Glee: The Complete Series" and be done with it. When it took off, they changed the packaging...
Ric:
It's a 1 discer, sorry to say! Looks like the first disc of the big set as it only had the commentary listed on the back of the package.
I picked up the Blu-ray Enterprise ship exclusive at Target for the $24.99 price, even though the shelf tag said $29.99 (scanned it to be sure). For...
Picked up Oz UCE and Monsters v. Aliens in Blu at Best Buy today. What great packaging for the Oz set! Very happy with this, even though the box was coming part slightly by the hinge of the front flap (little scotch tape for that). I couldn't understand why BB put a damn "spider" alarm on...
Mike:
I'm getting the same thing that Ron posted, but with the red "x's" that Eric and Scott get. FWIW, I'm using IE8 on Windows 7 Release Candidate. I'm sure it will be sorted out by the next Round-up. At least we aren't missing a picture of, say, someone like Megan Fox!......
--John
Nothing for me this week, Mike, but thanks as always for the Round-up! Like a lot of us, I am saving for some of the bigger releases coming up later this summer.
The "new" Round-up looks great and is easy to view. However, my browser (IE8), doesn't load the first 2 or 3 pictures at the top...
Hi Keith! Just got my e-mail and saw your "post about the post". I don't want to hijack this thread, so if you want I can e-mail you anything you need to know. Just one thing...make sure you hire a structural engineer for a job like this! --John
Just the Stooges for me this week. There was a Sunday coupon insert from Sony last week and there was a $3 off coupon for any Stooge set in it, so under $15 will be a great price. Also, I went to Target Sunday to get my $6 back for buying Gran Torino last week when it was released. Silly me...
Wow, after reading Ron's post about next season yesterday, I was thinking about how the Lost creators could end this series with making the viewers both sad and satisfied on any character/story resolution. I came on the site today to read all of these negative comments about spoiling the ending...
Woohoo! I think I clinched last place, with either 48 or 49 points! From first (last year) to worst (this year). Maybe next year I will have a better showing. Good luck to Suzanne and Larry! --John
Mikah, I only meant that historically Whedon's shows take a bit to get going. Buffy was not this HUGE hit after 13 episodes, but it was over time (enough for a 7 season run). I understand that the business side is going to dictate whether a show is kept on the schedule or not, but Dollhouse...
