I haven't seen a good movie in a very long time, so i decided to go see "Pulse". The movie stared Kristen Bell, aka Veronica Mars :blush: . The movie started out pretty cool, but took a turn for the worse! The movie wasn't scary, given the exception for a few scenes, and just had the lamest story plot ever.

a computer virus come to life, stealing peoples will to live

The ending of this movie was just horrible.. i can't believe i wasted $13.50 on this movie..

honestly, do not watch this movie, it's just terrible.. maybe go see it for Kristen Bell, and Christina Milian.

overall: 3/10 :no: :no:

I can't believe you gave it 3 out of 10 stars. I actually feel asleep during the film. It is, without a doubt, one of the worst films of 2006 if not the worst. I literally feel sleep watching this film, Bell played one of the most boring characters I've ever seen. Just a bad movie all around. :x

There aren't enough thumbs in the world to go down on such a bad film. Don't see this film, go see something much better, like The Descent for example. Or if you're looking for an awesome film, go see World Trade Center (two thumbs way-way up for that one).

i gave it 3 for Kristin Bell.. Kristin Bell taking her shirt off :woot: :woot: and when the lady came out from the wall, that was a cool effect, then seeing her ontop of the bed, scared me.. so thats why it got it.

bad movie overall.. i don't know how directors sit back and say "hey.. this was a good movie"

as a computer geek.. i laughed at many things inside this film..

if you wanted "Josh's" computer erased... physically destroy the hard drive.. MORONS!

I saw it; I decided that I'd watch it again if:

I had no money

There was no one around to hang out with

I was home alone

It was raining

It was too late to do anything

and it was on TV.

So: Watch it if it's on television, and you have nothing better to do ;).

Hey guys want to know the really sad thing?? The film this is based on (Kairo) is incredible. Worth watching definitely.

And you know what they did? They CHANGED everything. The original wasn't some horror film based on the "dangers of technology". It was primarily a film about loneliness and the disconnected nature of society, which made it far more grim and also transfered over into real life.

It's not a remake, as I said everything was changed.. The characters are completely different, the plot is completely different, they don't even share any of the same scenes (only a few similarities here and there).

Go check out the trailer for the original film: http://www.pulsefilm.net/

Never watch a Hollywood movie about viruses and computers...Does anyone remember the movie "Hackers"...it was a disgrace to all geeks and nerds out there!!!!

To be honest I always sorta liked Hackers. Yes it had just about every clich? in the book but it was a bit of fun, had a good soundtrack and of course has Angelina Jolie in it, which automatically makes it a good movie;))

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      While I miss Outlook for a couple of small things, I use Thunderbird now because I don't like how MS wants to force you to change things.

      Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
