Xbox 360 Wireless Controller

I would have to say that I love these wireless controllers. I tried a wireless controller with the old Xbox and well to put it very simple I became part of a double kill on Halo 2.

Over the Hedge

I would have to say this was one of the first really bad CG movies for Dreamworks. Haven’t seen Madagascar but from what I’ve seen from the little animated short it doesn’t look anywhere near as bad as Over the Hedge. Basically with this movie is you take a good idea (animals discovering suburbia) throw in a beary simple plot and then bam you’ve got Over the Hedge. I wasn’t terribly impressed with the story line. The CG was great. The characters were eh not great nor bad. Liked the squirrel. Is this movie totally kiddie… yeah. In brief kids will love it. $9.50 though for the price of an adult… maybe a matinee. Read more »

Well I started to read the book and found the story to be very interesting. I then became far too busy and decided to watch the movie instead. (Sort of like Mr.Potter) The film is directed by Ron Howard, which “golly gee” he makes swell movies. Even the Cinderella Man wasn’t bad. Anyways decided to go check out the film you got Tom Hanks which isn’t a bad actor plus you got Magneto (Ian McKellen). Let us not forget Jean Reno (Leon the Professional) add that with Ron Howard directing seems like it would be a swell movie. Read more »
