Movie Reviews

I saw two movies this weekend. I watched "We Are Marshall" (if you have Comcast, it's On Demand right now). It was what I expected, but was entertaining. Definitely an inspriational flick (even though I kept thinking I was watching "Remember the Titans"--coach no one believed in, same damn soundtrack, underdog victory story). Writing is sub-par; acting, other than McConaughey and David Strathairn, and Ian McShane, is mediocre at best. But, if you're in the mood for a feel-good movie, it's definitely worth the watch. WE ARE. MARSHALL!

Yesterday, I went to see "Juno." Loved it! Script is hilarious! Acting is great. I expected to be entertained a la "Napoleon Dynamite," and I was. But, it had a lot more depth and heart than "Napoleon." Sort of more like "Garden State." You'll love it--and you'll want to go buy Tic Tacs and a cheeseburger phone afterward! Oh, and the soundtrack is really good--I got home and downloaded a few of songs from iTunes (go listen to "Anyone Else But You" by the The Moldy Peaches).

And speaking of soundtracks...I haven't seen the movie, but there are several fabulous songs on the "P.S. I Love You" soundtrack. Try "More Time" by Needtobreathe, "Last Train Home" by Ryan Star, and "Same Mistake" by James Blunt.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

I am always sating hotels and the difference in quality and customer service still amazes me. I have done a lot of travelling through business and pleasure and the difference to me between a nice stay and a great stay is welcoming staff. There is nothing worse than checking into a hotel to find that the staff can't even really be bothered to servce you and show you too your room. I have also stayed at hotels where items of my personal belongings have gone missing after the maids have gone through the place.

For instance, as soon as new generations of cpus are made in the market, there is certainly usually a corresponding increase in the dimensions preferences of all laptop memory and hard drive space. This is because the software operated by simply these cpus will inevitably boost in power to take advantage of the new technology.
