  1. Chances are you'll never have it made the way you wrote it unless either you direct it yourself, or its a condition of the sale.
  2. From what I hear, Blu-Ray will cost around 30 bucks for a movie instead of 25-27 for a DVD(Canadian New Release Prices). Thats not a big jump, and the 5 bucks is worth it if you've ever seen something in HD. The jump in quality between DVD and HD is about the same, if not greater than the jump in quality between VHS and DVD. And if sony can reproduce the same technology that allowed the HD-DVDs to go to 45 GB, that would put Blu-Ray discs at 75 GB. You could fit the Star Wars trilogy on a single disc in HD with that kind of space.
  3. http://www.businessweek.com/technology/con..._9074_tc024.htm Sony now has the support of 6 of the 7 major movie studios, and the 7th is assumed to be jumping on board soon, as well as Dell and Hewlett Packard, and the PS3 will have a blu-ray drive, meaning anyone who buys a PS3 will be able to watch Blu-Ray movies. Now Microsoft and Intel have thrown their support in for HD-DVD, but not putting an HD-DVD drive in the Xbox360 will really hurt the possible sales of HD-DVD I think.
  4. He was also behind the best and worst line in X-Men. He was responsible for the "Its me. Prove it. You're a ****. Ok" line, and the "What happens to a toad when its struck by lightning" line. Though he said they said the toad line all wrong. It was sposed to be a joke, but they said it all serious. If they said it right, it still wouldn't have been a good line, but it wouldn't have been so terrible. And apparently his Alien Ressurection script was raped by re-writes, much like Frank Miller's Robocop 2 and 3 scripts.
  5. I bought Xenosaga 2 a couple months ago and started playing it and realized I had completely forgot what had happened at the end of Xenosaga 1, so I started replaying it and got to the end boss of that giant gnosis mothership thing, where that guy turns into the gnosis and remembered how much of a pain in the ass that freaking boss was. Then I got Suikoden 4 in the mail and started playing that. I should get back to it.
  6. I didn't expect him to suddenly come out and be the greatest player in the league in his rookie year. Sure he may have been top **** in the minors, but 99% of the people he was playing against in that league aren't good enough to play NHL hockey this year, so now he's suddenly playing against people miles ahead of anyone he played against before in terms of skill. Once he gets used to it though, he should improve. Unless he pulls a Jason King and just gets worse.
  7. You won't get the full effect out of it without seeing the series, but it would still be good without it.
  8. So what do ya'll think happened with Jack and his wife?
  9. Mortal Kombat was a good movie. It pulled off exactly what it set out to do, which was make an entertaining action movie out of a video game. It mostly stuck to the games premise, the acting was pretty good, as was the directing and VFX. Mortal Kombat: Annihilation on the other hand... *shudders*
  10. http://video.vividas.com/CDN1/3929_Serenity/web/index.html First 9 minutes of Serenity.
  11. So the DVD has been announced for December 20th. Crap for special features, so expect a special edition sometime in the spring.
  12. I'll be seeing it again this weekend most likely. Gotta drag my other roommate who cancelled at the last minute on friday because he got some vacuum tubes in the mail.
  13. *raises hand* Apparently we had a parade in Vancouver to welcome hockey back.
  14. Whoo... 1 nothing Vancouver in the 2nd. EDIT: Make that 2 nothing. Ohlund, then Naslund
  15. We just need to trick Bush into saying that not seeing Serenity is unamerican.
  16. http://www.hatrack.com/osc/reviews/everyth...-30-extra.shtml Orson Scott Card thinks its the best Sci Fi movie ever.
  17. What I heard was either a 40-50 million domestic gross, or a 70-80 million international gross will get us a sequel. So if it only gets 20 million domestic, but another 60 worldwide, we'll get our sequel.
  18. I didn't think it was the best movie of the year either. That goes to Batman Begins. This is a good 2nd though.
  19. We need to get grant morrison to cast another mastubatory spell for the box office to pick up.
  20. The interface is really the only thing that I'm not liking about Civ IV, but I won't even know what its really like until I play it. Getting rid of pollution and corruption is awesome. As is different leaders having different AI.
  21. I'm thinking that this will do a lot better on DVD than it does in theaters. Which is a shame, because it really needs to be seen on the big screen. Hopefully word of mouth will get more people into it, because the consensus seems to be that the movie rocks.
  22. BASEketball, UHF, and Boondock Saints.
  23. Well, so far it looks like this one is going to be making some money, and Whedon said he would ideally like to make a trilogy of films if this one did well.
