Great stuff, not for children
on November 2, 2008
Posted by: Shalva
from San Francisco, CA
An amazing double feature of the famous double: "Kite" and "Mezzo Forte" that later on inspired the whole series. These two, especially Kite are considered classic of the genre. Deffinately not for kids. Can't write why, but trust me, you don't want your 10 yo to see this. But the true lovers of the genre will squill with joy. And don't forget to check out "Kite Liberator"
What's great about it: The uncut version

Awesome anime
on November 2, 2008
Posted by: Shalva
from San Francisco, CA
One of the best anime of the past few years. Really terrific. I didn't care for the dubbing, as I always watch with subs. But the anime is fantastic. The dark feeling, heavy, runchy soundtrack, awesome plot and great characters.
The starter set was really worth buying and I can't wait for the next volume.
FYI - that's not kids' anime. There is much blood and violence, but 15+ I think is fine
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: N/A

Finally

Finally the 4-th part of the "Hellsing Ultimate". This particular edition comes with 2 DVDs in a steel box (loving it as usual) and a booklet with artwork from Hellsing Ultimate 3 and 4. Don't get confused, it's not manga, it's just some sketches compared with the actual pictures from the OVA. Anyway... Go! Buy it! Now!
What's great about it: All!!!
What's not so great: None

The final installment of the Mythologies compilation. I don't know why I'm even writing this, if you watched first three you should have the idea. I hope you'll love it as much I did

X-Files creator Chris Carter compiled this thematic DVD collection of episodes from the show's third through fifth seasons, all of which deal with a strain of alien life that uses humans as a host creature. The material on X-Files Mythology 2: Black Oil has been transferred to disc in the full-frame aspect ratio of 1.33:1, and the audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround. The original soundtrack is in English, with alternate dubbed tracks in French and Spanish included, as well as optional subtitles in English and Spanish. The episodes "Talitha Cumi," "Max," and "Memento Mori" include bonus director's commentaries, and the set also features a timeline tracking the mythology of these episodes, as well as a documentary on the "Black Oil" cycle from Chris Carter.

This set contains 16 episodes taken from the first three seasons of The X-Files. Each episode concerns the show's ongoing mythology about a government conspiracy to allow an alien invasion. Each episode is presented in the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. English, Spanish, and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include commentary by series creator Chris Carter and some of the other writers on a few of the episodes, and a the first part of a documentary titled "Threads of Mythology."

The compilations of some good material rarely work well, but in this case it worked perfectly. I'm a huge fan of the X-files and have a complete addition, but still think of getting the Mythologies. The episodes which are connected but the main ideas put together. A must have for any X-files fan

New B movie...
on August 19, 2008
Posted by: Shalva
from San Francisco, CA
This movie is a perfect representative of a new age of B-movies. It's all about ultra popular and extremely overrated MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). The boring plot that was used in dozens of movies before. Unbelievably shallow characters. Even Djimon Hounsou wasn't given enough space to actually act. The only character who was interesting and had potencial was an antagonist, but who's going to give a "bad" guy much time and development, right? I'm going even to get into details of fighting, it was simply unrealistic. Secret tournament to which everybody get a text message? Give me a break and come up with something more convincing. And if you want to watch that kind of movie, rewatch "Bloodsport". At least it had Bolo in it
What's great about it: Djimon Hounsou
What's not so great: Everything else...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

WASTE OF MONEY
By Nasobum9 from Phoenix,az
This game is a complete waste of money.. graphics might be good but single player is too short and lacks direction, multi-player is fun but lacks realism in real world conflicts.. MP-9 100 yd kill shots, not likely

Actually I was surprised myself when I learned that the effective range of MP-9 is 50-100 meters (100 yards = 91 meters)

how cheep will the ps3 be on black friday???

because walmart wont tell me i thought id go to yall
As far as I remember Sony never goes down on its PS3 prices. Maximum that they usually do is add some last season game to it or may be a HDMI cable. I bought my PS3 for last Christmas and paid the full price. There were no sales on it AT ALL and Best Buy was completely sold out
