Make it Stop

I finished my project and turned it in. Every
semester I say I'm going to start earlier. It
still hasn't happened yet. Still trying to rent
a copy of X-Men Legends. I just signed up for
a free trial for Netflix. They've got a really
good selection. So far the only things in my
queue are anime and old samurai movies. If anyone
knows of a good anime to watch or buy let me
know. I'm always looking for new shows. I've
already got Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, The Big
O, and Trigun. Which reminds me, I need to get
the second season of Big O. If you haven't seen
Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away. I suggest
you rent them at least. Both are great movies.
Now I shall get back to what I do best.

Most Impressive

As Burk stated, We saw Shaun of the Dead. It was 
entertaining and the characters were likable.  I did 
think it started out a little slow towards the 
beginning, but it picked up. I recommend this to 
anyone who enjoys a good zombie flick. I played Star 
Wars: Battlefront. As soon as I logged on to Live 
and joined my first battle, I was filled with joy as 
the Star Wars geek in me was released. I enjoyed 
playing a couple hours for the first two days I had it, 
but then the Star Wars-iness started to wear off.  
It started to get repetitive. Pick a soldier, kill 
enemy soldiers, get shot in back, pick new soldier, 
etc,etc.  Anyone who enjoys Star Wars should at least 
give it a rent, but this is not on my buy list. 
Speaking of Star Wars, did anyone check out the sweet 
DVD release of the original trilogy? Seeing the uber 
awesomeness of the originals made me realize how bad 
The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones were.  
I really liked seeing Darth Vader again. He's still 
one of the coolest villians of all time. The trilogy 
comes with bonus disk with a pretty nifty behind the 
scenes look at Revenge of the Sith. We'll get to see 
Lord Vader in all his glory, once again. I did notice, 
however, in A New Hope, Luke's lightsaber turns from 
blue to green back to blue. In the scene with Luke 
training with the little ball droid and Obi-Wan goes 
to sit down after the destruction of Alderaan, Luke's 
lightsaber is green, but in the very next scene it's 
back to blue.  Just a little note for you.
