No one wanted to make this movie...
on January 12, 2011
Posted by: Der
from Shawnee, KS
While it begins as a joke, the idea that the Family Guy team didn't really want to make this movie was made clear. The jokes were more flat than Blue Harvest and more sarcastic than Something, Something, Something, Dark Side. In all, it's Family Guy and if you enjoy those characters and running jokes then I'm sure you'll enjoy this fun parody of Star Wars: Episode VI. Personally, I hope they stop here and don't do episodes 1-3.
What's great about it: Family Guy Star Wars parody.
What's not so great: Jokes becoming stale after the first two parodies.

The Halo universe comes full circle in final game.

Halo, the original redefined first person shooters while the second opened the flood gates for millions of hours of online multiplayer. Halo 3 brought the best of both worlds with an ending some found frustrating but somehow suitable. Halo 3: ODST introduced new characters and new game play to keep the franchise fresh.
Now Halo: Reach brings the best of all four worlds. The graphics are the best yet, with incredibly customizable armor (plus you can even play as a female now). New weapons and a slew of vehicles are added in a new game that ties together the Halo storyline with exciting, fun characters and familiar enemies.
The multiplayer includes incredibly large maps, a Blood Gulch remake (awesome for those Red vs Blue fans), and all the vehicles you could want. Added abilities (including jet pack, invincibility and more), weapons and some very nice enhanced audio giving the action a more real feel.
Overall, this game ends the Halo franchise in a great way. If you have enjoyed Halo throughout the years (and enjoyed not being Master Chief in ODST) then you'll love Reach.
What's great about it: Graphics, weapons, vehicles, multiplayer maps, storyline
What's not so great: Could be longer

Ultimate Star Trek Blu-Ray w/ fun collectables
on December 8, 2009
Posted by: Der
from Lawrence, KS
J.J. Abrams does an incredible job bringing the Star Trek franchise back to life. This new movie, whether you want to call is a reboot (remake), a sequel or a prequel, bring Star Trek to a new generation in a bold and exciting way while still capturing the essence of what Star Trek movies have been for over 30 years. The new cast does a great job of honoring as well as reinventing the original crew of the Enterprise from the 60's TV show and the action heavy style helps bring in new fans for future Star Trek films.
The special effects really come alive on this Blu-Ray, whether it's the newly designed Enterprise or just the transporter sequence.
I've watched this movie with fellow Trekkies/Trekkers as well as some who have never even watched a single movie or episode but EVERYONE has truly enjoyed this movie and can't wait for the next one.
A couple fun cameos, which I will not name just in case you don't know, really bring in a couple laughs for all and some fun memories for true Star Trek fans.
What's great about it: Incredible special effects. Tons of extra features. Great reboot/sequel/prequel to continue the Star Trek Legacy
What's not so great: Collectable Star Trek insignia pins don't really come with a special display case like the product describes.

Does Verizon have SIMM Chips for cell phones?

I am working in China and bought a SIMM chip from China Mobile. It works in any phone that I want to buy. The phone I purchased has two SIMM slots for travel. One now has the China Mobile chip and I'd like to get a Verizon SIMM when I get back to the US for leave. That way I don't need to keep up with two phones, charges, etc... I am currently a Verizon customer and would like to keep the service I have.
I'm sorry but Verizon does not use SIMM cards in any of their cell phones. Most companies do, but Verizon does not. Depending on the phone, if it is unlocked, should be able to be put on the Verizon network, but it depends on the phone model. Your best bet is to contact Verizon to find out. Otherwise you'll have to go with a different carrier or get a different phone.

Do I have to start a new contract to get a new smart phone?

Do I have to start a new contract if i want a new smart phone?
You do not have to start a new contract, however, depending on how upgrading works with your current provider or plan, you might be required to pay full price for the phone which can be significantly higher than the price you get with a new contract.

Example: Verizon's Motorola Droid is $199 with a plan but $599 without a new plan.

It is best to contact your provider and find out when you can upgrade next or stop by Best Buy Mobile to see what phones cost without a contract.

Hope that was helpful.

choose btw tmobile my touch and iphone

My contract with sprint has being over and i want to go to a different phone company. Please help decide btw tmobile mytouch and iphone and the contarcts.

Annonymous
The real trick here comes down to which is more important to you, the phone or the network. AT&T's network is far superior to T Mobiles, unless you live in a major U.S. city (E.g. Philadelphia, Chicago, L.A.). However, the MyTouch is a more reliable phone than the iPhone. While the iPhone has many advanced features and more Apps than any other phone it has recently been voted as the Worst Cellphone of all time when it comes to actually making calls. It has a very high call drop rate. The MyTouch is also more customizable than the iPhone but in reality the only phone that truly rivals the iPhone's abilities in the new Motorola Droid from Verizon which I currently have. It essentially does all that the iPhone does, with a smaller app store (which is growing every day) but it does have a slide out qwerty keyboard which the iPhone doesn't. Verizon's network is a little more reliable than AT&T's so that might be a good option. As far as price goes, Verizon and AT&T are pretty even but T Mobile will be the cheapest out of the three.

I hope this helps you.
