The last few weeks of video rentals have been kinda piss poor. Haven't watched a good movie in a while. (Didn't see "Saw" or "Grudge" 'cause I don't like those kind of movies.) Anything good coming out soon?

    Not really, but here's a decent website that lists upcoming movies for each week :

    http://videoeta.com/week_video.html

    The top of the page is "blockbuster" movies, the rest are just movies coming out that you've either never heard of, or are being re-released, etc, etc.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I guess I'll try "Meet the Fockers." The Incredibles was incredibly corny (except for the seamstress).

    A few weeks ago, I got a new amp for my center channel I've been dying to test out, but I've been waiting for a decent movie to rent to see how the amp sounds. Maybe Blade Trinity will do the trick (although I thought the second Blade movie was ho-hum).

    Early- Blade kind of sucked. It had some good action in it but it was really hard to keep up with and they brought in a whole troop of MTV crowd actors.

    Other than that, rentals have been kind of lame as of late. I liked The Grudge but thats about it unless you count Troy which has been out for a while but nevertheless I thought ruled (ala my signature)!!!!

    I just picked up the complete first season of Hogan's Heros yesterday (released yesterday) 32 episodes for about $28 - can't beat it if you like this series - I loved it as a kid and still do. Six seasons total so I hope Paramount delivers on the remaining five - if they do I'm DEFINITELY getting them.
