    Have a laugh & help me win $5000!

    I'm a filmmaker who's hoping to make some extra cash to help fund my feature documentary The Turning Point, so I put this little video together for a TaxCut Online contest on YouTube. It's only 44 seconds, and pretty funny in my opinion. Check it out and vote: Here! After reading the fine...

    DVD Recorder suggestions? Nice Menus?

    I've been having some bad luck with my jump into DVD recorders. I bought a Phillips recorder at Wal Mart, which worked just fine for my needs, but after a month of use, it had frozen up a couple of times in various states of use... so I decided to return it tonight, before it was to late. I...

    Any idea when the new Curious George DVD arrives?

    I was here looking for any sign of it too... my son is dying to have it. I'm wondering if they're waiting for Christmas time, to boost sales, since it should be out by now or at least have some news of it coming out.

    Hills have Eyes

    I didn't realize it was the same director as High Tension. The guy definitely has some talent. If they gave him a top notch script, he could create a real classic. He's certainly not shy when it comes to the gore.

    Hills have Eyes

    I saw it last night. I agree somewhat with some of Ryan's comments. But they didn't bug me nearly as much. Some of the character reactions were stupid, but mostly I did take it as they're in a crazy f'd up situation, so they're not going to be reacting normally. Though the stupid, leaving the...

    HTF FANTASY baseball 2006.........

    I'm all for a non-keeper league... it's not really worth it unless you've got like 10-12 strong players that play every single year... I think that there's too much movement on who's playing year in and out. Thanks, Mark, I may end up signing in for your league. We'll see how this other...

    HTF FANTASY baseball 2006.........

    I haven't been around HTF much these days, but signed in to see if there was a fantasy team going. I signed in for the keeper league, since I played last year. But I don't have a clue as to who I had or how the keeper thing is going to work... If we could post the teams somewhere and come up...

    Help me remember a movie title.

    Big Shots!... thank you... I love this place... always get such a quick response. And now that I'm looking... it's not out on DVD. What a travesty!

    Help me remember a movie title.

    This was a movie that came out late 80's about two teenage kids. One white, one African-American, who go on a trip together to find their dads... end up stealing a car or something... been a while. I swear it was called something like Hot Shots, but that's the Charlie Sheen spoof. I'm trying...

    Mr. Mom for a month.

    My son Ash is 10 months old. I've really just started staying home with him for full days for the first time. My wife and I both didn't want to put him in daycare. One, because we thought he'd be better off with us the first year of his life. And two, because it seemed pointless for one of us to...

    HTF Fantasy Baseball 2005

    Thanks for setting that up Corbin. I'm in, call me the Ball Maulers. Hopefully I can make the draft. I'll be home alone with my 10 month old son, but luckily that's his nap time... I'll probably be able to make it through most of it, before he wakes up.

    HTF Fantasy Baseball 2005

    I don't really have the time to set up and run a league. But I'm definitely interested in playing. There's got to be at least 11 other guys wanting to play too. I seem to remember that we even had two leagues last year... Who set it up last year?

    Does anybody remember this format?

    Wow... that was quick. Thank God for the Home Theater Forum! Thanks to Rob, I found this site, if anyone is interested: http://www.cedmagic.com/selectavision.html

    Does anybody remember this format?

    It must have been about '82 or '83... I was around seven years old. My dad brought home this movie player with a copy of Rodan and a collection of Disney cartoons for the weekend. I must have watched them each about 5 times before my dad took the player back. It was the beginning of my downfall...

    A suggestion for Netflix.

    I've been a happy Netflix user for years now. I've only slightly looked into Blockbuster's and Wal Mart's online rental sites. It seems like Netflix has a much better selection than both. (I'm really into foreign and independent films.) My mom has been testing out the various sites. She told...

    *** Official GARDEN STATE Review Thread

    I saw this at the Seattle Film Festival and so far it is my favorite film of the year. I thought there was no way the film could live up to that fantastic teaser trailer, but it far exceeds it. Just an all around wonderful film. Written and Directed beautifully by Zach Braff. Wonderful...

    Ong Bak = Kick butt kung-fu!!

    I watched the Japanese trailer for Ong Bak over at themoviebox.net and was absolutely blown away. This looks like it could be one of the best kung-fu films to come out it quite a while. I then went to IMDb and just about everybody says the same thing. That the story and acting suck, but that...

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

    Although not much of the information shown in this film was new to me... it was certainly wonderful to seen it put together so well and in a way that almost anybody could follow. It's a very powerful film that I think people on both sides of the fence should see. Sadly most people pay very...

    SEATTLE: Paul Allen's SCIENCE FICTION MUSEUM opens June 18

    Cool. I live a couple blocks from the Seattle Center, I ride my bike through there everyday, I love sc-fi... yet somehow this is the first I've heard of it. I'll definitely have to check it out.

    A great, addicting FLASH game timewaster. Don't say I didn't warn you...

    I got 13400 on about my 7th try. Got everything but the mountain and "straw" maxed out... I assume it's possible to max everything out. Update: About 7 trys later I figured out the magic combination. 20000... maxed out everything. Weird little game, at first I thought what's the point, a...

    Haute Tension- outstanding new horror gem!

    Sorry Scott, didn't mean to offend. Here's why I think it works: Like Justin and Filmforce say, it all takes place in her head. Since she's obviously crazy, we can not trust what is going on. The begining with the head, I saw as the awakening of the killer inside her subconcious. (Yeah...

    Haute Tension- outstanding new horror gem!

    Based off this review: http://www.joblo.com/arrow/hautetension.htm - I watched this, this last weekend. One of the best horror films I've seen in a while. There are only a few deaths, but they are extremely gorey. With one also being extremely satisfying. A very well done film all around, with...

    That scene wasn't in the print I saw. It still doesn't explain what happened to Hellboy. How'd he get in the chains?

    *** Official HELLBOY Discussion Thread

    This is spoiler filled, so proceed with caution! I saw this at a preview on Monday, it had been getting way hyped up by the Aint-it-cool types, so I was setting myself up for a let down... and I was still let down. It does get many things right: Perlman as Hellboy is fantastic. I really...

    *** Official JERSEY GIRL Discussion Thread

    Not much discussion about this film... I just saw it and really enjoyed it. I'm a big Kevin Smith fan, he's the only reason I went to see it. The trailers made it look pretty schmaltzy, and I'm sick of Ben Affleck, so I had some fears going in. It's a fairly simple story, but it's really...

    Start picking your nose

    I think most people pick their nose. You just can't get it all out any other way. But eating it, that's a whole other story.
