Filmspot, was thinking about blogging about movies I see this week and now I find this.  Pretty nice, looks like CNet has provided us with everything we need to boo and hissss or cheer for movies that we hate or love.

Saw Volver two weeks ago.  Last thing I saw.  Good movie except for the unbelievable dead husband stuff.  Would have liked a little bit more surreal movie though, more haunting.

Wanting to see Idiocracy.  I've been watching clips of it on youTube and it just looks like lots of fun.

I think i might point some friends to this site.  I would be interested to see how many people from gamespot actually make up the group of people the sign on to CNet's other sites.

Ok. So my last blog was about television and why I don't have one. And I mentioned the fact that I use YouTube. I have been watching Bleach. I guess no one has the rights to it in the United States and so it can be dubbed with no problem and posted without any chance of being taken down.

Anyway, the show is pretty cool. I am still not sure whether I get it, but one of the things I appreciate is that there are none of those goofy cartoon faces that are so popular in Japanese cartoons. The quality is also pretty high, though I am not entirely sure what the show is about, even after having read the Wikipedia summary.

I also have to admit that I am not entirely sure what is so appealing about action anime programs. I think part of what is appealing is that most of the characters are actually a lot like you would imagine RPG characters. They have an ability, like in Bleach or Scryed, and then essentially they level up from facing adversities and become more powerful.

For right now this is free entertainment.

So.... I don't own a television. I mean plenty of people do not, but I what are the statistics? Something like 3 tv's per american household. I guess that also tells you that I don't actually get to play any fabulous games do I.
The internet is actually my new tube. I can watch the Daily Show on Comedy Central's site. Almost commercial free, except for the blipping ads. And they don't even make you watch a commercial before the video. Pretty sweet.
I can catch South Park on YouTube. I mean that pretty much covers my comedy needs. And I can do without the drama TV. CSI is like a story with no characters just symbolic representations of things. None of the characters actually discuss things that aren't germane to the case and so its just a bunch of objects floating around and talking or being gruesome. I don't get it.
So maybe someone could tell me why I need a television.

Casino Royale
For a Bond flick, pretty good. But it almost makes you wonder whether it needs to be "Bond" at all.

Blade Runner
This is one of the few movies that Harrison Ford is in, if not the only one, where you can forget you are watching Harrison Ford. He actually seems to be playing a character from a different time and place, who speaks the local nipponese/english...
