    Donnie Darko a cult classic. I heard from a firend of a freind and fell in love with the moovie. So eerie. This review for S. Darko makes me want to stay away but I admit that Ill prob rent it just out of curiousity. Underworld was a decent movie. Accurately placed in rental section, since it lacks Beckinsale. Taken Has to be one of the best action thrillers I've seen in a while. Not too many movies out these days that dont feel like they need to add grotesque violence or nudity to be a hit.

    S. Darko sounds awful. The first was good (but over rated), and a bit pretentious, but this is justa cash in.

    Donnie Darko was a great film.
    I admit that I almost picked up S Darko, today until I read the premise.

    "She has to put all the pieces together so she can prevent the end of the world"

    Somthing like that,,,, screw that end of the world bs. Its old and boring.

    Everyone rips Two and a Half Men, but they have some decent jokes on that show, Sheen is hilarious. there are worse sitcoms out there.



    that being said, i would never buy it on dvd, its good for watching the reruns where nothing else is on

    I agree! Sheen often says what's on everyones mind. But by the dvd, fagettaboutit.

    Dude Two In A Half Men is an awesome show. WTF?
  • GyPirate09 · 6 months ago
    I fully agree, what the hell is wrong with people that's one hilarious show.

    Donnie darko was entartaining but overcomplicated, senseless, overrated, and extraordinarily pretentious. And screw the little goth kids who worship donnie darko and at "you just don't get it" even the director doesn't get what's going on. He just tried to make it less convoluted in the directors cut. It's still fun though. It's a mystery to turn your brain off and watch.

    I think Two and a Half Men is one of the better shows out there right now. I find Sheen's real-life skankiness distasteful, but his character is unabashedly icky and the show seems to have decent writers.

    Penn & Teller is a pretty good show, too. It seems to be all over the place up here, timeslot-wise, but every time I manage to catch it, I enjoy it.

    Sigh. Do I have to keep correcting this website.

    Kingdom is an ITV series NOT BBC.

    Just like Spaced is a CHANNEL 4 series NOT BBC.

    Have to? No. But we're glad you keep returning to do so anyway...

    Because I have already seen the story of Underworld: Rise of the Lycans displayed in full detail in snippets of the first two movies, I was extremely disappointed they didn't add anything into the mix. The chick was hot, yes, but that was it. Kate Beckinsale has a much better ass for leather, though, IMO.
