Exit Through The Gift Shop

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.

    • I hate the term, "future-proof." We saw it back in the 90's / 2000's, if not before. You cannot future-proof anything, since there is no definition of how far into the future you plan on prepping for. Best idea is to tell us what you currently have and what its use is at the moment, and we can then offer ideas about some areas that might need an upgrade and other areas that can be left alone.
    • I can agree that it is being used in a small capacity. I worked for a company where their engineers still used XP, and when asked why it was because their sensor software wasn't compatible with newer operating systems and the software was discontinued so they couldn't upgrade the software. Given that the sensors were still in use by companies, they had to continue using XP to support the sensor, otherwise the price to the company would have gone into the millions or billions. Our response was simple: Ok, you can keep the XP machine. But we're removing it from the network. "But then it can't access the Internet or folder shares!" Yup, kinda the point. If someone wants to continue using an unsecure OS they can do, I have no problem with that. But it should be isolated. Simple. I had a fight with a guy in the engineering department for weeks before he finally relented. But we digress.   What do I plan on doing to commemorate the anniversary? Nothing. I have fond memories of the OS, but at the end of the day it's just an OS. If I had some time I might see if I could install it on my Raspberry Pi for a laugh. But my reflex memory with today's OS ideas would probably get me frustrated and I'd uninstall it after 5 mins.
