Woah!

I went into this movie FULLY expecting just some stupid "Bad Boys" type garbage with just mindless shooting and explosions. At the time I knew nothing of the director or writers, but now that I do, I feel foolish for the expectations that I had for this movie. This movie completely knocked me over with how amazing it was. The movie constantly keeps you on the edge of your seat and is incredibly suspencful!
This movie is a prime example of Leo DiCaprio's true acting ability. I am a huge fan of him and Matt Damon, so when I heard all of the buzz about this movie from my friends, and learned that they were BOTH in it, I bought it that day, and I was most definitely not let down! This movie had some of the best acting I've ever seen!
If you buy this movie, i can almost guarantee that you will love it. I honestly cannot find one thing I didn't like about this movie except part of the end, which I cannot say because it will spoil it. Let me leave it at, "The elevator scene left me unsatisfied with how things played out." BUT, the end TOTALLY made up for it. This movie has an end to it that makes you want to jump up and say "Yes!!"
Besides that, this movie is a definitely buy! It has intense language, prettyu good action, a VERY suspencful story with a few twists, and very interesting characters.
What's great about it: Very Interesting Characters, One of the best endings...ever, VERY good story, Epic Acting.
What's not so great: The Elevator Scene :( (Spoiler)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great game for a Hardcore spiderman fan.

Let me start by saying that I am OBSESSED with spiderman. My girlfriend bought me a spider-man snuggy, I have one of my favorite spiderman graphic novels panel-by-panel on my wall in my room as wallpaper. So needless to say, I was buying the game any way it came out. This game covers my two favorite universes (amazing, and noir), a previously-introduced universe that I now LOVE (spiderman 2099) and a universe that I actually was not a fan of (Ultimate). The way the story pans out, for a fan of the comic books, is very cool. They bring all different kinds of spider-man villians in and not just the same re-hashed garbage badguys over and over from other spiderman games. For example, mysterio and kraven are in this one and i can't remember the last time they were in a spiderman game...besides this one. Each universe has its own style and gameplay. Noir is stealth, Ultimate is a sort-of hack-and-slash type thing, etc. The way the different universes compliment each other is really neat and I really enjoyed it.
Another thing that I really enjoyed about this game was the fact that they didn't have some douche playing the voice of peter parker that sounded really nasal-y (like the guy who played peter in web of shadows). Another cool little tid-bit that really excited me was the fact that they paid attention enough to the comic lore to know that peter is the same character in 3 of the 4 universes so he should have the same voice in Ultimate, amazing, and noir (but in noir have a 50's accent). The only bad thing about the story is that it seemed like the jokes for this game were written by a 3rd grader. I half expected to hear him ask "what time do you go to the dentist? ...at TOOTH-HURTY!" ha! (not really).
The gameplay was very fun. It has nice mixes of all different kinds of generes. I still find that my favorites were amazing, and noir, but they introduced me a little more to 2099 and actually got me interested in it a lot, and the ultimate universe (which i usually hate because peter is a whiney loser) was actually really fun too. The only downfalls with the gameplay is that the graphics are sub-par. Also, the camera angles are verrrryyyy finicky and annoying after a while sometimes. I would have lovesd to play this game with the graphics and polish of "Batman: Arkham Assylum." That game would have Blown BAA out of the water! But sadly, it had a few flaws, so Batman is still number 1 in the super-hero game frachise.
In short, this is a great game for patient, hardcore spiderman fans that can get by the annoying camera angles, however it is definitely no arkham assylum and is a rent for nearly anyone else.
What's great about it: Fun, Great for Spider-Man fans, easy controls to master.
What's not so great: Annoying Camera angles, Graphics were a little sub-par, some of spiderman's jokes are lame.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great movie for Fans that aren't picky.

When I first saw this movie in theaters, I was thinking:
"Really? Shai swinging with the monkeys? What the hell?"
"Really? Shai swinging with the monkeys? What the hell?"
But when I got finished with it, I loved it. Yeah, It had it's flaws, like the whole fridge scene that everyone complains about, and the thing with Shai and Harrison's characters that they did (trying not to spoil) was a bit predicatable. However, this movie gets A LOT of unnecessary slack from people who claim to be fans. When you watch this one next to the other three, you will see that temple of doom is still indeed the worst one of the quadrilogy (soon to be five movies).
In short, the acting and story are great, and it is better than the second movie, but not as good as 1 or 3. It is worth the buy and I highly recommend it!
What's great about it: Story, Acting, Casting, Directing, Locations. Way better than Indy 2.
What's not so great: A couple cheesy scenes and a few predictable parts. Not as good as 1 or 3.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What are the most important things I need to know about the iPad®?
1. You have to sync the ipad to itunes on a computer before you use it. You cannot use it straight out of the box and charge it. You also need to download the newest updates to get some cool new features. I cannot tell you how many calls I get into the store asking why their ipad isn't working and why it is showing the "sync with itunes" symbol.
2. You need to buy itunes store points OR buy apps. The whole point to the ipad is to get apps for it. Yeah, you can get free ones, but a lot of them blow to be honest. Most of the good ones cost at least $1.99. So when you pick up your ipad i would get at least a $15 itunes card with it.
3. Get a case and a zag shield. Zagg shields are those expensive plastic covers that go on the screen. Yeah they are expensive, and yeah they are even more expensive to get installed, but they are great screen protectors and when you get them installed you get a lifetime warranty on your zagg shield. A case is important too because obviously if you drop it, it will mess up the back of your ipad and it won't look nice anymore.
4. You can get a bunch of cool stuff for it like a wireless keyboard or a keyboard mount/charger. A stylus is also recommended because they have a REALLY cool drawing program on there called sketchbook pro i believe. It is really neat. There is a camera attachement kit so that you can look at pictures on your camera and import them to your ipad as well. Basically, what I am saying is, look into accessories to make it even cooler. haha
5. The screen is made out of GLASS and is VERY fragile so BE CAREFUL and like i said above, get the zagg shield!
There is probably a lot more that I cannot remember right now, if you need anything else let me know. :)

can i put the i-pad on lay away at any best buy
No you cannot. You can have them hold it for a few days if you are waiting on a check or something, but you can't put it aside for any longer than that and pay on it, if that's what you mean.
However, if you are old enough to get a credit card, you can sign up for a best buy credit card and finance it. You pay for it right there, bring it home and then pay a monthly fee to your card. Since it is above 299.99 it would qualify for no interest financing and would be the same thing as layaway except BETTER because you could get the product THAT DAY.
