5/5

Made me realize why as someone who considers themselves an artist I always thought Art was one big fat joke. Bansky is truly amazing even if people consider him a sellout.

Grown Ups

This is a typical Adam Sandler movie, one liner after one liner and so forth. Many people have slated this on IMDB, but when you can ever trust IMDB ratings especially for comedy? (that place hates will ferrell). I thought it was laugh out loud, awesome stuff and the story also many argue it somewhat lacks, it fits together perfectly :). If you like any Adam Sandler movie, you'll love this.

8/10

The Expendibles

Now this movie is a definitive man movie, kicking the crap out of everything and blowing stuff up. This movie is an all out action packed fast paced movie with a cast that is rivalled by arguably none. My only criticism though is that the story was a bit weak, but that's not always an action film's aim right?

7/10

Iron Man 2 (HD) ? I went into #1 not really expecting to love, I came out loving it. And thought it was awesome. I went into #2 expecting to really enjoy it, but I came out a little disappointed. Don?t get me wrong, the action was good, the CGI was good, even the acting was good. But the film as a whole didn?t gel for me. I guess I forgot the ultimate rule ?sequels mostly disappoint? and this was true of this film. I found myself getting really annoyed with Scarlett?s character. She was a fantastic piece of eye candy. But she was completely wasted in that film, and the only reason she was there was something to stare at. She didn?t add anything to the film at all for me.

On the whole sorely disappointed :(

6.5/10

Body of Lies (HD) ? No idea what this film was about, a friend at work leant (sp?) it me. Went in expecting nothing, what I got was a highly intelligent film with some first class acting from DiCaprio, Crowe and Strong. A really engaging film, highly recommended. The last few years I have really come to respect DiCaproio as an actor. Before I didn?t take much notice of him, but since I saw him Blood Diamond. I have been paying particular attention to his films. And I think he is a brilliant actor. More please :smashin:

8/10

4 Lions - 8/10

Robin Hood (Russell Crowe one) - 8/10 : not what I expected at all... and thats good.. its not the same old robbing in the forest storyline.. I think they

might make part 2 the way this ended...

The Expendables - 9/10 : great action movie.. I watched it coz of Jason Statham was thoroughly enjoyed it.. the camera work reminded me of classic Rambo movies..

Robin Hood (Russell Crowe one) - 8/10 : not what I expected at all... and thats good.. its not the same old robbing in the forest storyline.. I think they

might make part 2 the way this ended...

(Y) same opinion. awesome movie, definitely needs another one. 9/10 for me though.

8/10 - One of my favourite kung fu movies made even better.. Some of the scenes shot in Chinese mountains are breathtaking.. Jaden Smith doing his dad proud :) I'd watch anything with Will Smith in it and seems Jaden has a bright future in the business..

Took some time off recently and watched a bunch of blockbusters. :D

The Karate Kid - Really enjoyed this one but I think it's because I'm a sucker for "finding a home away from home" movies. Could have had a little more plot overall. 8/10.

Robin Hood - My favorite of the bunch. Only complaint is the terrible English accents of the almost entirely non-British cast. 8.5/10.

The A-Team - This one was a little on the cheesy side. And the guy who played Bosco really did no justice to Mr. T. But the

flying a tank

scene was very entertaining and alone worth half a point. 7/10.

Iron Man 2 - Very polished but no where as good a story as the first. They went totally overboard with Tony Stark's "the world is my playground" lifestyle in my opinion. Some scenes just made me roll my eyes. 7.5/10.

The Expandables - Thoroughly enjoyed it. I expected mindless action and got plenty of it. The good old fashion physical kind, not the special effect Brosnan Bond kind. 8/10.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
