Stuff and … stuff
Well I played some more DDR last night. I tried out workout mode which is… umm… yea. My wife also started to play, and really enjoy, the game last night. She picked it up pretty quickly.
I also got Gradius V last night. The bonus DVD (the whole reason that I preordered it from a company that I hate *cough*gamespot*cough*) was not included. I guess that I am not the only one with this problem. I just sent them an email a few moments ago and hopefully I can get this straightened out.
I also saw Man on Fire last night:
Man on Fire: Well right from the start there is a lot of lead into how this movie is going to go. The credits in the begining have their own little mini-story which sets you up for not only the style, but the context for the rest of the movie. Tony Scott did an amazing job directorily, and I does things with text that goes beyond anyother movie to the point of me beliving that this film would not have worked if entirely in english. Also Tony Scott builds some of the best enviromental tension in this film than I have seen in a while. The acting (even by the little girl) is quite excellent. There are really only a few scenes that I think should not have been in the movie (I think that they called the audience stupid by explaining things that were easy to figure out like motive). Another little bonus was that the DTS audio track was simply amazing, seriously. 3.5 out of 4 Stars.
