Great addition to the Marvel film universe. Action and effects are terrific, as always. James Spader really good as the voice of Ultron. Creepy, conflicted, somewhat confused, but relentless in what he believes he has to do. The writing is so smart....all the little comedic throw away lines really make this more human than superhero.
I was really looking forward to this album because as a lifelong YES fan, I think this lead singer is the closest to a young Jon Anderson in range, pitch, tone, timber and the strength of his voice, etc. While the songs are very pleasant and melodic, I'm a little disappointed in how mellow, how laid back they all seem to be. Where's the flat out rockers? Where's the ROUNDABOUT, YOURS IS NO DISGRACE, GOING FOR THE ONE, TEMPUS FUGIT, etc. Nothing on this album really drives like any of those songs, so I'd have a hard time recommending it to someone who isn't a die hard fan. Don't get me wrong, everything on the album is done very well and sounds good. It just doesn't "rock" like YES has done on other albums.
Of the three EXPENDABLES movies, this was probably the weakest plot wise. That said, I still enjoyed it. It's not a great film by any means (don't expect THE GODFATHER), but as an action flick, it certainly lives up to the hype. And I really enjoyed a lot of the comedy in it, especially Antonio Banderas. Just take it for what it is and enjoy it.
Not being that familiar with this branch of the Marvel Universe (a talking raccoon and a tree person? C'mon.), I didn't know what to expect when I saw this in the theatre. But after all the others (Ironman, Thor, Captain America, and of course The Avengers) I should have known this would be a slam dunk. Cool story, lots of humor (subtle and otherwise), and great characters (and by the way, Rocket and Groot-pulled off without a hitch). Just a terrific sci-fi/fantasy/action movie. And as always, open ended story line for Guardians 2.

While I enjoyed the 1st Cap, I thought this one was even better. I like the fact that Steve Rogers was even more "current" in this movie than he was in the AVENGERS, more at ease in the present day. Also thought Scar Jo added a lot to the supporting cast.
Not quite as good as the first one. Plot was a little thin at times. But the picture quality on blu-ray and the animation are exceptional ! Good family movie with humor for the adults as well.

What's great about it: Blu-ray color is phenomenal !
Only @ Best BuyThis Insignia™ NS-HS00501 speaker wire makes it easy to connect your speakers to an A/V receiver or amplifier. The 18-gauge thickness provides durability, and the 100' length offers flexible placement options.
With other speaker wire costing more than twice as much, this is a good value. And I honestly don't believe you get "twice as much" sound with the more expensive stuff. At least I can't hear a huge dropoff in sonic quality, if any at all. But the wire is a little thin, so you do have to take care when you split it and strip it for your speakers.

Sword of Shikata: The master martial artist/swordswoman Shikata is sent to capture Spider-Man for a wealthy man's collection of rare animals. Shikata determines that Spider-Man is too noble a foe to simply capture and they must fight to the death!"
Thought the dialogue was better in this one than the first........seemed more like regular guys just talking and goofing on each other. As with all movies The Rock is in, the action is over the top, but enjoyable.
This is a surprisingly good action movie. At times, a little far fetched, but hey, it's Stallone being Stallone. Not The Godfather, just a very entertaining action movie.
