Then again, most films are rubbish these days. >_<

Pondlife on Sunday, July 06 (2008) 01:49PM

Thought that was rubbish

pecker on Sunday, July 06 (2008) 01:09PM

Except for the Happening... it sucked. Really sucked.

rockinamigo14 on Sunday, July 06 (2008) 12:18AM

my friends LOVED wanted. they could not stop talking about it.

By the way, Samsung is making a new DAP called the Q1, which is speculated to be the next T10. No further info at this point.

jbhitter24 on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 11:30PM

anything by m. night shamalamalamalamalyan is awesome.

wanted sounds eh, wall-e definitely. although my theater just jacked up its prices again, so i don't plan to see as many movies ($ 10.50 with no more student discount)

Design Fabulous on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 11:04PM

lol A few years ago, iriver had a comercial on theatres telling people not to put their foot up. I never knew that there were people that actually did that though. lol

rockinamigo14 on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 10:47PM

Wall-E = awesome

dap_pad on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 10:25PM

I really want to see Wanted and Wall-E. Wanted's action scenes look amazing and Wall-E is pretty cute, plus the animation looks pretty good.

I hate annoying people in the theatures, some people just have no manners I was watching Pirates of the Carribean 3 and the person sitting beside me was just awful He smelled like cheese and when I turned around, turns out he took off his shoes and socks and twisted his legs, so that his foot was basically right in front of me. Smelled really bad and was really rude too. Honestly, it's a public place, not everyone wants to smell your feet 2 hours of pure torture...

All I wanted to see was Wall-E and the Strangers... used to want to see Get Smart until I heard that it was pretty crappy.

And yeah, I hate those annoying people at theatres... you know, they group of friend who never shut up, the babies that can't stop crying, the guy who never turns off his cell phone..

Oh, and I saw Lady in the Water today.. honestly, to me it's so damn good. But a lot of people didn't like it

Saijin_Naib on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 09:30PM

I want to see Wall-E and the Happening really bad, also Hancock looks rather funny in a wry way.

Design Fabulous on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 09:19PM

There was a kid that was making so much noise eating popcorn to my right and his sister kept crying throughout the movie. The girls parent kept walking out of the theatre throughout the movie too. I was about to punch them in the face but I resisted.

rubennyc on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 09:10PM

I second the Wall-E recommendation. Great movie.

Design Fabulous on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 08:29PM

Check out the mintpass thread guys, just translated an interview.

dap_pad on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 08:03PM

LOL there are so many movies I want to watch this summer Wall-e is one of them

Design Fabulous on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 07:33PM

BTW, just saw WALL E. It is a splendid and very lovable movie, be sure to check it out.

Design Fabulous on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 07:32PM

dap_pad, I don't think the Zune's display is blue-tinted but yes, the display is quite low res but usable IMO. Videos are OK, only because they are smooth, but don't expect crystal clarity. I really think the Zune isn't excpetional at everything, but is just a good device with no critical problems. And Ricardo thanks for the link, but the Asian character support isn't hacked into the zune's firmware... Hopefully a hack will come out soon. Well, so far, I love my Zune, it is just so beautiful.

Ricardo Dawkins on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 06:58PM

@DF: [Linky]

Videos looks better in the *glass* screen of Zune80

pecker on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 03:43PM

I thought the videos on the zune was quite good!

Maybe my eyes aren't as good as my ears

Connect on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 03:25PM

Disappointing.... not in favour of the Zune 80's screen, even the Zune 30's screen's colours don't blend well... I don't think it's that pixelated though.

dap_pad on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 12:39PM

LOL congrats DF My friend got the Zune80 recently but the screen was just horrible There was a blue-ish tint to it and it was very pixelated, maybe he had a dud? He returned it for an iPod Touch Oh and I'm pretty sure it's 65k colors.

Connect on Saturday, July 05 (2008) 11:15AM

Hey is the Zune80's screen 64k colours or 256k?

Design Fabulous on Friday, July 04 (2008) 08:18PM

Haha, thanks for the praising guys. I'm loving the Zune, the design is really what makes me love it. The UI is butter smooth but the screen is on the low pixley side. Well, everything is running well, hopefully Koreans hack the Zune80 like they did with the Zune30.

BBD on Friday, July 04 (2008) 08:00PM

@ pecker: nice lappy!

And same to others for their recent acquisitions.

Saijin_Naib on Friday, July 04 (2008) 07:15PM

My dad was really excited about the Insignia Sport, I think I did good. Shame they didnt have a soft excercise case for it at best buy like they did for the Pilot. Oh well, it fits in a Sansa e200 case just fine

dap_pad on Friday, July 04 (2008) 06:54PM

Congrats DF hope you like it

nywytboy68 on Friday, July 04 (2008) 06:42PM

PS: Congrats on your new Zune DF - enjoy!!!

nywytboy68 on Friday, July 04 (2008) 06:42PM

Zune software since the 2.5 update is pretty damn HOTT IMO. They really did a good job on the upgrade to it.
