    Official "The Passion" review thread

    On DVD and Video Tuesday the 31st I just saw this film for the first time. It will be available on DVD Tuesday and as a Blockbuster employee, we can view pre-releases when they come to the store. First of all, from a cinematic standpoint, this film was spectacular. The acting was fantastic...

    usa vs argentina

    It's really too bad they went into this tournament thinking they were that much better than everyone else and could simply turn it on when they needed to. It's about time these NBA hotshots were delivered a dosage of humility. Maybe the USOC will start training players to play Olympic basketball.

    Unit news from the republic....

    Further proof that Jr is a moron and needs to go. You don't put a guy like the Big Unit on waivers and expect it to keep quiet. What a dumbass.

    Coyotes Sign Petr Nedved, Trade Daymond Langkow For Denis Gauthier And Oleg Saprykin

    UGH! Another under-achiever. Yes, the guy has some great career numbers and has had his share of good games, but he is also notorious for taking nights off and being a problem in the locker room. Mike Barnett just cannot sit still for one minute. I don't like the trade either. Langkow was a...

    Lucas to make Episode 7,8,9?

    Sorry, but your selection of favorite football teams makes your judgement questionable at best. Based on that alone, I would think you are a glutton for punishment. Plus, if you actually do not go see Episode III, how will you be able to comment on how horrible it is? I would think you would...

    Album-a-Day #41: Van Halen

    Released in 1978, the first Van Halen album is one of rock and roll's absolute finest compilations. Before the band became popular, this album was on the market for about a year. The opening song, Runnin' with the Devil is probably David Lee Roth's best vocal performance. The...

    The Criterion Collection

    "All of the films published under the Criterion banner represent cinema at its finest." This would include Armageddon, which I have the Criterion edition. I totally agree. :) One of my favorite outtakes is Billy Bob slipping into Karl Childers and saying, I reckon we drill, mmm hmmm.

    The Ladykillers

    Finally got to see the latest from the Coen Brothers last night and along with Fargo, O'Brother Where Art Thou and Raising Arizona, it was as funny as hell. In typical Coen Brothers fashion, the characters are all played to their ignorant extreme. A bunch of idiots working together to rob a...

    Randy on Waivers?

    Never mind. I know what I mean, even if I cannot seem to get that point across.

    Any Fans of The Who?

    All I can say is, WOW! What a jam, and almost 40 years old. You just don't hear stuff like this anywhere these days. Thanks for the link.

    McLeod to call Avalanche Games

    If there is a next season, former Coyotes' TV play-by-play man Doug McLeod will be calling games for the Colorado Avalanche, the Republic reports. They are also claiming that a local personality will be hired to cover the radio side and Kielback and Simmer will do TV only. They are waiting...

    D-backs officially elimintated...LOL

    With 34 games remaining in the season, the D-backs find themselves 35 games out of first place and officially eliminated from the divisional playoff race. Now we can start thinking about next season. :biglaugh:

    Randy on Waivers?

    What I meant was, how many times do you actually see a player picked up off of waivers after the trade deadline? Almost never. It may not be an "unwritten rule", but it sure seems to be common policy not to grab a player off waivers after the deadline because teams know that once a player...

    Album A Day #71 - Oasis - Familiar to Millions

    Recorded live at Wembley Stadium in July of 2000 in front of 70,000 people, this is one of the best sounding live compilations I have ever heard. The two disc set includes a wide range of hits as well as a couple of covers. There is a DVD available for this show as well, however Helter...

    What Bands Have You Been Listening To Lately?

    Some Might Say is one of my favorites of theirs, and it was not included on the Familiar To Millions set. :hulk: The crowds at their concerts are incredible. I have the three DVDs of shows that they released, and I am truly amazed at the size of the crowds and the participation. I have...

    Any Fans of The Who?

    I'm definitely a fan of The Who, probably not to the extent you are, but I never turn them off. I saw them at the ASU Activity Center in 1980, I believe it was the Face Dances tour? Anything that happened between 1978 and 1982 is a foggy blur, so if that was not the tour, please correct me...

    What Bands Have You Been Listening To Lately?

    Wow, imagine going to see them in concert and not hearing Wonderwall or Champagne Supernova. I'd be kinda pissed. Still, a great selection of songs, but how do you not play those two songs? I went to see Sheryl Crow two years ago and she did not play "All I Wanna Do". I was highly disappointed.

    Randy on Waivers?

    Yeah, one of those "unwritten rules of baseball". Why not just keep it simple and extend the actual trading deadline another 2-3 weeks? Oh yeah, when it comes to owners in baseball making decisions like this, nothing is ever simple. Except the owners themselves, of course. :O

    Lucas to make Episode 7,8,9?

    I've been entertained by all five films, and that is really the bottom line. It is all fantasy, and despite the poor dialogue, the stories were well told. Don't like it? Fine. Write something better. Many of the SW geeks I know went into Episodes I and II with very low expectations. Also...

    Randy on Waivers?

    If he clears waivers, the D-backs can trade him even though the official deadline has passed. This is one of those goofy MLB things.

    What Bands Have You Been Listening To Lately?

    Hey, how can I get a listen on that? What other songs were on it? I love their entire library.
