I just got this great video game for my Playstation. It's titled "Sheep." Basically it's like a game where you herd flocks of..you guessed it..sheep. It's amazingly hilarious. A little difficult but I have to say, this is the type of game that should be made more often. When you run toward the sheep, they run the opposite way and so thus you can help them avoid traps and obstacles and stuff on their way to a final destination (be it truck, barnyards, castle or spaceship). Highly recommended for those with a lot of time on their hands. Go check it out at www.saveoursheep.com, you won't be sorry.

Regardless of what happened at the theatre, it doesn't take away from one of the greatest movie experiences ever. Don't wait to see it on video or on pirated DVD, watch it now, on a big phat screen with Dolby Surround Sound. It's a rare movie that is slim and trim enough to fit into 120 minutes yet sacrifice none of its storytelling or epic feel. Any movie that feels like three hours (when it's supposed to be two) and can still keep you riveted is a great movie. If you Asian, support this movie, if you're not, support this movie. I went to three theatres looking for this thing and it was all sold out so i had to wait another 2 days to watch it. That's how much i wanted to see it. Go.

Well, that crazy annoying woman behind us basically distracted me from alot of it. Why people can't suspend disbelief for 2 hours when watching people "fly" across the screen is beyond me. If you can believe people getting blown up and still surviving, why you can't immerse yourself into a given culture's fantasies is beyond me. It's amazing where you find ignorance these days. Oh yeah, next time you watch a movie, do us all a favor and turn off your cell phone.

I recently saw this amazing movie that everybody really needs to check out. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Directed by Ayn Lee and starring Michelle Yeoh and Chow Yun Fat. I can't really say enough about how beautiful it was, as a wonderfully constructed movie and as a piece of Chinese culture coming across to America and making an impact. It has fighting, romance, comedy, great acting, and once again, great fighting. This is the culmination of a great Chinese movie, in the wonderful story it tells and in its incredible choreographed fight scenes. (by the same guy responsible for the Matrix.)

than any locomotive. but he's not real. just a heartless, soulless, practical
machine. who happens to talk.
