    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Fun With Dick & Jane (2005)

    Thanks for the review, too bad for the video quality. Good funny movie when I saw it in theater, and sure I'm not hoping for a reference disc, but Sony shouldn't botch it with such low bitrate. Especially when home equipment now outshines most theater equipment. I'll pick this one up for the...

    Battlestar Galactica: Season 2 - SciFi US broadcast thread

    Anyone know if SciFi has any plans to go HD anytime soon? For their genre, it's amazing that they are so behind the tech curve. Earl getting better technology thrown at it than BSG is just funny in some twisted way.

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    I have plenty of patience and slow time in my life, but I enjoy that pace and relaxation to be accociated with things like sitting on my deck watching the sunset over the Texas hill country smoking a great cigar. But when it comes to to a mysterious island that sucks planes and balloons out...

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    Well, of course, now that BSG is between seasons. It does rock, even more so when you save up 3-4 eps and blast through them in one night. That's more the pacing I enjoy for this storyline. Touchy feely tearjerking backstory? FFW. Then the show goes from great to awesome.

    Product Placement in TV shows -The NEW commercial

    Yeah, it's getting real bad. Have you seen all of those placements for Dharma products on Lost?

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    Tedious filler - that's how I perceive this eps. Back off, man, that's my perception and I'm entitled to it. I still watch the show because every third eps or so it moves along the portion of the plot that interests me. This week's eps was like splicing a chick flick thrown into the...

    Terminator 4

    Their only hope is to really throw out all the previous rules and tear it up. Go crazy with the time travel and completely reverse everything. Do SOMETHING different that will make us care about this movie!

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Blue Thunder

    Ah, I had completely forgotten about this one. Looker too for that matter. I was all over this film when it first came out. Even with poor audio, I'm really looking forward to revisiting it. Now where did I put my Airwolf model....

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: A Sound Of Thunder

    Thanks for the review, you probably saved me a few bucks. I am such a fan of this genre that I probably would have picked this up regardless of my vague recollection of poor theater reviews. $15 saved, thanks! Movies like this actually piss me off that they exist. Very similar to Millennium -...

    whooa... so i just have to share this... My son's kindergarten class just make tie-dye shirts. And the brand of the dye? Drum roll please... Dharma! It was an odd moment of 'holy shit' mixed with 'oh my god'. Gotta watch less tv.....

    LOST season 2 discussion thread......

    Ya know, Hurley's/Dave's theory is the one that makes the most sense so far. Even tie it back to eps a while back, where Hurley asked to be in the loop. Maybe he really is imagining it all, including the stuff we see without him? Nah, can't be that easy. But, then again, we may just see...

    My Name is Earl

    Pretty great eps. The Crabman background was very 'Lost'ish. The only character I'm pretty tired of is Jamie Presley's. For some reason her acting doesn't last over time on that character.

    They need to rename the show "Bill Paxton's Ass".

    24 - Season 5 ongoing thread

    24 is so riddled with poor writing that you just have to groan and look the other way when this crap comes up. Remember, we're talking about the producer that drove Star Trek Voyager down the toilet. Just be glad we don't suddenly see Nazi aliens show up unexpectedly...

    24 - Season 5 ongoing thread

    Man, that was OK, but a letdown from what it could have been. Corrosive gas that, when dispersed over an extremely large volume, can still eat through door seals? And, of course, the door seals have sensors that constantly measure thickness...puhlease. And that amazingly corrosive stuff didn't...

    Battlestar Galactica: Season 2 - SciFi US broadcast thread

    Please, oh, please writers - I beg you - do NOT let the next season slip into the tediousness of 'Lost' flashbacks. You've got a new starting point, live it up. We're there, no need to insert backstory, drive us forward.

    Is Hollywood in the midst of a "Golden Age"?

    Hollywood is definitely in a rusty iron age. Television, however, is now amazingly strong. I'll take BSG over any movie in at least the last 5 years, maybe 10. The only good movies really never make it through the noise of Harry Potter and the Endless Sequels. I really loved The Jacket...

    SOPRANOS Season 6: Season Finally!!!.. Episode 12: "KAISHA"

    Wow, it's been a while. I wish I had the who's who sitting beside me while watching, I had trouble remembering folks. Loved it when Tony was called away from playing with his toys (boat and jacket) to step in when his brother in law (name? jeez, its been a while) was playing with his toys...
