Advanced Warfare I thought was a bit of a bounce back with their adding verticality to the game, but the game is getting stale fast. For me it was COD: Ghosts that fucking sucked. But then again, I blame a lot of the crappier aspects of Ghosts on it being a launch game that felt a bit rushed. I'm only playing the

4 In The Morning is a great kickoff, but the album is a bit hit and miss. And again, why is this album so damn short?

It's got Tony Jaa (so it will likely deliver on the action), but I'm unfamiliar with the director- Cheang Pou-soi. I've seen two of his films - Accident (which was pretty good) and The Monkey King (another Donnie Yen misfire - but it did have a pretty jaw dropping cast). It being a sequel a decade later, can't

LIIIIISAAAAA NEEEEEDDDDDDSSSS BRRRRAAAAAACCCCEEEEESSSSS

Considering how Blended, both Grown Ups and a bunch of other films Sandler's been attached to were basically paid vacations that happened to be filmed - why would they watch their own home movies?

Doesn't Give A Fuck

I really enjoyed this too - it was a nice bounce back from the mildly disappointing Special ID, but still didn't live up to the operatic fun of SPL

Love, love, LOVE their mixes. They have an app that features some of their mixes and their BBC Radio 1 Essential mix from 2005 is a must listen.

Am confessing poor taste when I say I didn't think Sabotage was that bad (apart from his haircut)?

Nighthawks is still pretty good. Billy Dee Williams in a disco Superman t-shirt and Rutger Hauer snarling throughout the film = le awesome.

He might want to take a second look at Judge Dredd. Could cause him to re-assess that statement.

Up here in Canada (eh?), this sort of garbage rarely finds distribution in the theaters - it usually goes straight to VOD.

That's like trying to argue which is the better meal - airline food or hospital food.

John Travolta being beaten by Tom Hanks in 1994 still blows my mind. He still hasn't won an Oscar yet, but if Travolta has another resurgence, that'll likely be added to the list.

Well, the Air Bud series did jump a whole bunch of different sports after they got everything they could out of basketball. But really, did they have to go to curling to really bring home the underlying message of the whole Air Bud series?

I'm a bit surprised that peeps are playing this for the story. I tried to stick with the story as long as I could in the MW and Black Ops series, but after the first MW, they went increasingly over the top into Michael Bay territory each time, with a few game chapters that were worthwhile in each of the series. I

I loved Just Cause 2 - didn't give a shit about completing the missions -
just going around causing all kinds of weird shit to happen and using
that grappling hook like some kind of psycho, gun wielding Spider-Man
gave me hours of fun.

Discovery was the album where I got really into them - I had Homework, but felt that only a handful of tracks were noteworthy. Homework for me was not really that much of a revelation - a lot of Chicago House DJ's had already broken ground on a lot of the stuff they were playing (like DJ Sneak).

For me - Sophie's Choice - I had just become a father, was completely uninformed of what the film was about and what the significance of the title. I was devastated at the brutality of the situation.

While I do agree that Hanks is fantastic in it, it still blows my mind that he won best actor over John Travolta in Pulp Fiction - by Oscar logic, John Travolta had the career comeback of the fucking decade and still didn't win.
