    Weekly RoundUp 7-26-2016

    Hardcore Henry is a must buy for me. Having played first person shooters for the last 20+ years...this film was groundbreaking to me. The Rock's DOOM movie gave us a 4 minute sequence a few years back...this entire movie is in first person. I'd imagine some folks will hate it....but any...

    Vinyl: Season One

    As a classic rock fan, and a huge Marty guy I was really looking forward to this. Found the premiere to be really meh. Great soundtrack. Excellent sites of NY in the 70s. Just didn't really connect with any of the characters, no one seems really likable...and I know that's not a prerequisite to...

    Survivor Cambodia

    I'm starting to think Joe is going to win every challenge. That would suck, but be very, very impressive.

    Win an Onkyo TX-NR1030 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AV Receiver

    Recently bought my first home and spoke to a local HT company about installing a proper home theater.. If I won this receiver it would make me saying yes to the construction much easier from a financial standpoint!

    12 Monkeys

    I liked it a lot. First time having a Hue experience. Very immersive having the lights set the mood for each scene. Way better gimmick than 3d. IMHO. The premiere set the table for what looks to be an interesting ride. Agreed with above, I like that Cole didn't have to spend multiple...

    Sony Officially Cancels The Interview Theatrical Release but WILL release it (Post #202)

    Loved The Interview. Movie starts slow, but the laughs really pick up once they get to Korea. It is way funnier than I expected.

    HBO True Detective

    Don't worry Sam, the two detectives who were doing the interviews are going to be back next season and take down the rest of 'em! ;)

    Survivor Season 28

    Knowing how HII crazy in love Probst was when Russell was pulling them out of his ass, I'd bet money someone on the crew told the last guy in that tribe exactly where to find it.

    Survivor Season 28

    If Garrett is a pro poker player, I'd bet his IQ is pretty high. But yeah, not the brightest bunch for sure. GREAT premiere. No fanfare, no spoilers out there...loved it. I'd like to volunteer to be president of the Morgan fanclub. Hope she doesn't get the boot early. Cliff Robinson...can't...

    Enders' Game Digital Domain Event

    Wow. Excellent write up, thanks Kevin!! Post that footage ;) Read the book a few years ago. Never thought they could do the battle room justice, but saw an IMAX presentation and loved it. Very cool of Lionsgate to let you experience some of their magic.

    Upgraded my router AEBS

    Nice Clinton! I've got an eons old router, and lately I'm having trouble streaming. Looking to upgrade and didn't want to drop the coin for the AE. But I did win a few football pools this year..

    This is The End Quick Review

    Michael Cera was the star of this one. I laughed my ass off, had no idea that was the direction this movie would go.

    Man of Steel (2013)

    Incredibly well made movie. Excellent cast. Ho hum...been there, done that story. And way, way overdone destruction of Metropolis. Wanted to love it, but can't say I did. 3/5. How about a movie just based on Krypton? Crowe and Zod (the guy from Boardwalk Empire was incredible) chewing up...
