Tucker & Dale vs Evil

I absolutely loved this movie. I had no idea what to expect from it. I didn't know if it was supposed to be a horror movie or what, but some comedy pops out and I was about to die laughing. Awesome movie.

Last weekend watched Puss In Boots

Just such a great movie. Absolutely loved it.

Anyone who is a cat owner such as I am will definitely really appreciate all the subtle things they put in from cats with real life.

5/5

Also went to a matinee at the movie theater itself to see Chronicle.

Was a decent film. I liked it a lot more than my wife did though, that is for sure.

It definitely had a few scenes that every boy that ever dreamed of being a super hero could appreciate.

3.5 / 5

Also tried watching We Need To Talk About Kevin

There may be a good movie there somewhere, but I did not make it far enough to find out if there was.

It was not only slow, but it was incredibly depressing as well. Just had no desire to watch it after about 45 minutes of trying.

1.5 / 5

Finally, the weekend before last weekend, watched The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Fantastic Movie. Absolutely loved it. 4.5 / 5

6.5/10

It was OK. Cool concept, but, there were many plot holes that brought it down.

2/10 (3D movie-going experience)

I went and saw this Sunday in theaters. Of course I had seen it before, so I won't rate it on that.

This was my first 3D movie that I saw in theaters. I was very disappointed, and my brother constantly reassured me this is the worst 3D movie he has seen (and he has seen a lot) and there were way better ones, so don't give up on the theater 3D experience. We got up and left about 3/4 through, because, really, I love Star Wars (see: Original Trilogy), but watching this movie more than 5 times, in 11 years is more than enough.

My wife wanted to watch this last night. It is only 13 minutes long so i am not certain if it can be classified as a movie.

4/5 (took 1 point off because it was stupid)

Underworld_Awakening_3.jpg

7.5/10 bits of intense action, overall not really the same pull as the other movies.

8/10 pretty funny, but at times kinda stupid. I like stupidly funny movies if they are stupid but funny the entire time.

Star Wars: Phantom Menace in 3D

Absolutely crap. I had gotten to the point where I was ready to give the film a second chance, and 3D would be a bonus.

Wrong in so many ways. It's an absolute turgid pile of pants. Badly written, terrible acting, pooly paced kidfest. I love Star Wars and I was ready to say "You know TPM wasn't as bad as people make out". But it really was. I fell asleep.

As for the 3D? Worst implementation of 3D I have ever seen.

    • Honestly that feels even more useless than it did when Win11 was first released. In 2021, the uproar was somewhat justified, but only when comparing how good we've had it since Windows 7. Prior to that, a new Windows release would often require new, or very recent hardware. Windows XP wouldn't run (in any usable way) on hardware released when it's predecessor Win98 was released (let's ignore ME). It was time to shift the goal post, and the way Microsoft did that was actually ok. People have still had another FIVE YEARS of free software support with Windows 10, and those of us who want to have used these tools to bypass the limitations, all while understanding the impacts that may have. Most laptops don't last 5 years (sadly), so now the youngest unsupported hardware is 9 years old, and apparently has another year of support with Windows 10. That's good. Meanwhile, understanding the impacts and limitations, I have my 2013 laptop running Win11 perfectly fine. The thing that's failing on it is the hardware, the 2.5" SATA cable/chip is failing and corrupting the SSDs I put in. Thankfully it has a functional M.2 sata drive that works fine!
    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
