Fanboys




Fanboys is the ultimate movie for any, well... Fanboy. It is very funny.


In 1998 Star Wars fans are left in darkness. But The Phantom Menace is on the horizon. But the wait is more painfull than a blaster bolt to the hip. So a bunch of Fans decide to take a road trip to the Lucas Ranch to steal a rough print. What could go wrong.
It was a hilarious movie. Not anything bad I can really say.
8.5/10

Tropic Thunder


Tropic Thunder is hands down the funniest movie I've seen. At the movies I nearly pissed myself.
It is about a team of actors who are in the proces of making a movie of a novel written my a war hero. When the studio threatens to cut the budget the director takes the team into the real veitnam jungle to make the movie.
It is hilarious. A very funny movie. I'd recomend it to anyone with a sense of humor.
9/10

Watchmen




Watchmen is mind blowing. The fight scenes are insanely stylised (in a good way).
It is set in an alternate 1985, when all superheros have been outlawed.
After the death of the cynical "Comedian", Rorschach - a masked physco decides to take the investigation into his own hands. He and the other ex-supers discover a higher plot behind it all.
It was an awesome and revolutionary movie. I'd really recomend reading the comic first though.
9/10

Mirror's Edge


I got Mirror's Edge about a week ago. It is so fun.
It is set in a world where there are rules and oppression everywhere.
You play as Faith a "runner" (someone who can run up walls and pull off heaps of cool stunts) and you have to deliver messages to other runners in an attempt to eventually free the city.
It is pretty non violent with the exception of a few punches and kicks and the occasional gun. though it discourages guns because they slow you down. It was an enjoyable game and definatly an undiscovered genre, but it wasn't used to fullest of it's potential. It could have been more risky and out there. They should have used this new idea to create a new genre not just a good game.
7/10

The Beatles: Rock Band


The Beatles Rock Band is a simple game. It doesn't have a specific plot, though you can play the story mode, which is pretty much all the songs in chronological order. But it is funer to just play the songs in free play. There is a difficulty rating on each song but it is best not to listen to it. All the songs are fun (and easy if you make the difficulty level "easy")
Whether or not you like this game really depends on whether or not you like The Beatles. As a Beatles fan I'd give it.
8/10
Its the coolest ad for Red Faction Guerrilla.

Its just promo footage for halo 3, but someone's put opening credits and in. It was shot by Neil Blomkamp who will be directing the Halo move in 2012.
