Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum Edition)
dark and magical
For a fifty year old animated movie, Sleeping Beauty holds up exceptionally well for the modern viewer. While a bit light on story (evil queen threatens new born princess with curse of death, fairies cause the curse to be limited to slumber, fairies raise princess as a peasant to protect her from curse, curse strikes, etc), Sleeping Beauty tells that story quite well without relying too heavily o

NBA 2K9
Not what I expected from 2K9
The game freezes when I try to play a ranked online game on the PS3 and when I am able to connect, i will get disconnected in the middle of the game. There is also alot of blurs in the background when you're running the break on online games. Also I can't believe it doesn't have LOBBIES, how are you suppose to play against a friend. This is truly unacceptable for a 2K Sports franchise. If 2K d

Death Magnetic
Great music, but ravaged by time and mistakes
Metallica has long been the black sheep of the metal community. The past three albums (Load, Re:Load, and St. Anger) have been far from appreciated by fans of the Metallica that gave us Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, or ...And Justice for All. The new music had it's own merits of course, but it was clearly not aimed at it's old audience. That's fine, they were certainly allowed to do so, b

The Glass Passenger
The Glass Passenger Stays in Fifth Gear
I think we have come to the point where whatever Andrew delivers as music, it is going to be, simply put, good. Be the songs from Something Corporate, be them from Jack's Mannequin, be them b-sides, a-sides, live performances, demos...you get the point. The songs are just good. The question is: how good?
The Glass Passenger delivers, really, an era's worth of music spanning post-ca

StrengthsFinder 2.0: A New and Upgraded Edition of the Online Test from Gallup's
Simple, short, and suprisingly on target
Our team all went through this assessment and I have to say we were all impressed at how on target the assessments were; it does help to convey a solid message of personal development that we all should heed: know your strengths, focus on your strengths, leverage your strengths, develop your strengths!
The one piece of consistent feedback on the assessment? People wanted to see a rela

Zune Car Pack v2
1mrblinkie
I recently purchased the Zune car pack v2, and the sound quality is not as I had expected. The sound seems to be muffled and not really clear. Also, the station seems to fade in and out quite a bit. I read a review and I will try and re-program it with the radio off.

Fiesta Products Traditional Rubber Handles Sil-pin Silicone Rolling Pin, Red
Wife doesn't use it, everything sticks to it...
This thing is wonderful if you can keep it clean. I bought this for my wife, a commercial pastry chef, and she rarely if ever uses it. She complains that everything sticks to it. I suggested dusting it with flour to keep that from happening but she still doesn't use it.
Just consider that fact before you buy...

King Arthur (Director's Cut) [Blu-ray]
a much grittier & 'real' King Arthur than the Came
I loved this movie. Clive Owen's portrayal of King Arthur gave it an Earthy, realistic feeling you don't get in other movies on the figure like 'Excaliber' (which I also loved but in a different way). Keira Knightley's Gwenevere is animalistic & raw, just like the setting this movie was shot in, & Arthur's knights are true gritty warriors, not the typical chivalrous knight in shining armor they

Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoo
I gave this camera a shot and it failed me
I bought this camera to be used for an convention and during the convention it has gotten the fatal lens error problem. I have only had this camera for about 5 weeks and hopefully amazon will replace it or Canon will cover it in warranty. I really thought this fatal lens problem wasn't a problem but it is. I hope I get a new one and sadly enough I cannot take pictures for this convention I am at.

Ratatouille
My favorite Pixar movie
I really enjoyed this movie and being a computer generated movie, it was even better watching it on Bluray. The picture quality is awesome, you can almost feel the texture of the perfectly rendered surfaces & objects in the movie. The character artists & voice actors have captured the personalities of each character so perfectly in this movie. The story is very entertaining & not overly geared

The Dark Knight (Two-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy)
This is how Batman should be view...on the edge
The movie was worth the wait. I have been a fan since childhood and it's great to see Batman mature over the years on big screen with the exception of Batman & Robin. Just be prepared to sit for two hours. The joy of owning your own copy is the pause button. Get it! You won't regret it and the one bad review...he must have been on drugs! Don't hate ...appreciate!

Boon Frog Pod
Really big, but cool!
I bought this for my 2 year old son's bath time about 2 months ago. It was installed in less than 60 seconds using the suction cup method. I have a house built in the 1940's and I'm pretty sure the tile in my tub area is original -- this frog has stayed up for 8 weeks with no issues yet and seems pretty strong! Holds tons of toys + shampoo, baby wash, etc. I also hang pitchers that I use to rinse

Apple Wireless Keyboard Kit
Another Great Apple Product
I mostly work with a desktop Mac, but more and more I use my laptop in another room of the house as my get-away office.
I use a laptop risier and a full size keyboard. Needless to say, the full size keyboard and the cables with and mouse were a real mess and take up a lot of room.
The new wireless keyboard is great, not only in helping me to eliminate clutter, but it's l

Live Free or Die Hard (Unrated Edition)
over the top
so much happens in this movie that its hard to stomach. if you do not have a good sound system or a half way decent televison you might be missing out. the stuff that happens to the main character of course would kill you or I but its a movie and its supposed to be high action so just sit back and enjoy it.

Mad Men - Season One
It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This
Totally absorbing, consuming and full of visual candy of all sorts. This show is a symphony of perfect pitch in every sense. The characters are real, the set dressing and costuming authentic in every detail. I hope this never ends. The storyline is compelling and smart. If you remember this time period you will love it even more.

Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Light - Black
Good quality, bright, bluish, a bit pricey - will
I received one of these a few days ago and my verdict is that I am likely to use it when reading books at night.
Brief overview:
- 2 super-bright LED's with lenses
- light has more blue and very little red, or yellow (think of a steady neon light)
- uses 3 (THREE) AAA batteries
- 40-hour battery life (claim is made on the package, not verified by me)

The Dark Knight (+ Digital Copy and BD Live) [Blu-ray]

Why would I want a Digital Copy of a Blu-Ray Disc? I just don't get it!!!
I was all excited that "TDK" is finally coming out on Blu-Ray. But in order to enjoy the experience of BD, why am I forced to have a Digital Copy of any release shoved down my throat. Why not package the digital copy in with the standard definition disc instead, sell it separately or here's a thought...download it from

John Adams (HBO Miniseries)
Work of Genius and Depiction of Historical Events
Although the miniseries title and episodes focus on the life of John Adams, the strength of the film lies in the exceptional ensemble cast. It was impressive to see such giants as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin, as well as the lesser known individuals, truly inhabited by the actors.
The challenge of the series was to breathe life into those stories and live

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
I loved Crysis...until I met COD4
For months all I could think about was how awesome Crysis was. Then I decided to give COD4 a try. I must say I have never played any games in this franchise before and so I had no idea what to expect...also, the though of forking out fifty bucks was not comforting. I can now say, that was a well spent fifty.
I especially loved the way it made you choose your difficulty level based on

This hub has done the job admirably and I highly recommend it. No p

The Choice
Enjoyable
I enjoyed reading this book... moreso at the beginning. Part II is rushed and melodramatic and didn't live up to the complexity and maturity I thought the story captured better in Part I. I wasn't sure what to expect when I decided to buy the book. It was a quick read. It probably wasn't fair that I read it right after "Three Cups of Tea," which is so profoundly written and such a compelling true
