![The Amazing Spider-Man 2 [Includes Digital Copy] [DVD] [2014]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/5413/5413091_sa.jpg)

So I have a theory about the Hollywood execs who make a good super hero movie that makes billions of dollars world wide and would seem to have an endless supply of money making ideas firing out of the studio one after another but then they release the next movie or the 3rd and 4th movies and they're just garbage. Why? The studio decision makers say "We need to out do the last one. How? Cast more star actors in it to play more main characters." WRONG! Stop throwing more characters into the movies. Just write a good story. It should be:
Movie 1: Spider-Man v. Green Goblin
Movie 2: Spider-Man v. Electro
Movie 3: Spider-Man v. Doc Oct
Movie 4: Spider-Man v. Lizard
Movie 5: Spider-Man v. Venom
Movie 6: Spider-Man v. the next bad guy, Carnage, Mysterio, HobGoblin, Vulture, etc.
Just keep writing good scripts with good plots and the movie will take care of itself. Stop parlaying the bad guys and wasting them. This Spider-Man reboot sequel is just another domino in what will be another failing Spider-Man franchise. That being said....
If you just like to watch super hero movies, you'll enjoy this one too.

So I grew up watching the original Godzilla movies with my dad from the 1950s when the giant prehistoric lizard was attacking Tokyo. And these new remakes are good enough to watch and enjoy but they're not the originals where a 3 ft mechanical robot was destroying 100s of tiny plastic models. So obviously the special effects have been upgraded but I still can't say this one is better than the originals.

Maybe the 2nd best X-Men movie, second to X-Men 1st Class. More story line involved here which could be be hard to follow from time to time if you're not into the whole X-Men comic book universe. Good special effects and very entertaining action. A must see for super hero fans.

![300: Rise of an Empire [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2014]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/5836/5836383_sa.jpg)

After the Persians defeat the original 300, another greek army has to try and stop them. Similar plot lines as the 1st one with just as mutch action. 300 part II kept me entertained and I liked it but it wasn't as good as the original 300. Still worth watching though.

![The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Seventh Season [3 Discs] [DVD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/7716/7716146_sa.jpg)
This release includes all 24 episodes of the brainy sitcom The Big Bang Theory, following the romantic and practical misadventures of two genius physicists, who are at the top of their fields in science, but at the bottom of the totem in playing the field. The two continually attempt to bring their social skills into par with their laboratory skills, and living across the hall from a charming blonde actress gives them plenty of motivation.

The complete 7th season on 3 discs so you can watch them over and over again, like I have and still do. This may be one of the greatest shows EVER! If you don't know this show, start at season 1. You won't regret it.
Hysterical ensemble cast that made being a geek, cool.

This Rocketfish™ Mobile 3.3' RF-FA5SC USB cable lets you charge and sync your compatible Apple® device with a Lightning connector to your computer's USB port.
Posted by: Gehrig
from Philadelphia, PA
I was looking for just a sync cable. I did not need the AC plug adapter and I didn't want to spend $20-$30 for an Apple brand one. All I wanted to do was keep one for my ipod at my home computer and an extra one at my work computer. Simple. And that's exactly what I got with this Rocketfish cable. Works perfectly right out of the box and because it was just a fraction of the price I bought a 2nd one! You can't go wrong with this item.

Action packed!

This movie is non stop action. From the opening credits to the fade to black, I was fully entertained. It may be too violent or the language may be too strong for some but was a crucial part of making this movie a great experience. This may be one of the most underrated movies of the last ten years.
What's great about it: Excellent action and plot twists.
What's not so great: Very bloody if you're not into that.

Under-appreciated!

This is one of the funniest and well written shows that nobody watched when it was actually on TV. One of the greatest sitcoms from the past 25 years of televison. Give this show a try. You will not be disappointed!
What's great about it: Simply hysterical!
What's not so great: Only 3 seasons!

The Next Indy Film!!
on October 21, 2008
Posted by: Gehrig
from Philadelphia, PA
I like the movie overall. It held my attention and entertained me for about two hours and isn't that what we ask of the movie industry. No matter what the movie plot would have been, the fourth Indy flick could not have lived up to the hype that was almost 20 years in the making. On pure entertainment value, I would recommend this picture however I was disappointed in this film straying just a bit too far from the original series' hystorical and religous search of antiquities.
What's great about it: Indiana Jones is back!
What's not so great: The story line became too far fetched.

An instant classic!

Scorsese put together an All-Star cast for this mafia/gangster/cop movie. The story was well written and kept me on the edge of my seat. Just when I thought the movie would become predictable, something unexpected happened. This movie was very enjoyable from start to finish!
What's great about it: A very well put together cast.
What's not so great: If you don't like mafia movies, you won't like this one.

Thumb your way through retro games with this Nintendo classic controller for NES. Whether the iconic rectangle is familiar in your hands or not, you'll be able to up, up, down, down your way to extra lives on favorite games. Connect this Nintendo classic controller to the Classic Edition console or a Wii Remote controller.

It sounds like the cable length will be 3ft or less. You may wish to consider a Wii classic controller or classic controller pro.
