My Halloween was okay, but I think next year I'll stay in my neighborhood as apposed to going out to fancy houses. I prefer family halloweens, because it's always fun to see how my younger siblings change every year.

I think Blu-ray is just a promotional tool. Of course, if you have a hi-def television, go for it if that's your thing, but I don't believe the market should be forced into phasing out DVDs over however long a time for Blu-ray replacement. I, myself, do not want Blu-ray! I just want the option of either DVD or Blu-ray! Of course there is a choice now, and we can choose to buy a movie on either format, DVD or Blu-ray, but sometime down the road I do not want to be forced to buy new movies on Blu-ray only. I will most likely stop buying movies then. And just collect older titles, and make my own DVDs on Nero by downloading the movies.

That is BS that special features are crossing over to Blu-ray ONLY shit, and DVDs are releasing barebones single discs and useless Digital Copies (sidenote: which by the way, started out as a slim case extra release while now they are coming packaged with the main releases, and the whole thing started by trying to stop movie piracy, which of course is not working, so why do we still have them?) while Blu-ray gets the best 2-disc editions, not to mention studios are beginning to take interest in releasing Blu-rays way ahead of DVDs by at least a few months, which is the start of forcing our hands in the phasing out of DVDs. Which is pissing me off, more and more. Blu-rays are not a replacement to DVD, they are basically the same thing with higher capacity limits, so studios can fit higher quality audio, etc. I understand completely the BR potential. But will I fork out an extra 10 dollars a movie when I still have an oldschool tube TV? The answer is no. I will stick with my DVDs, thank you very much. And I will collect as many as I can without ever touching a Blu-ray or BR Player.

Another sidenote: Blu-ray format is only at a 16% overall purchase rate of the total home video market. DVD is still the number one format. And yes I know that DVD has been around for 12 years, and Blu-ray has only been out a few years. Still, so what.

it was amazing.. i went trick r treating did u?

Devil May Cry 4 is great. I played it like three times.

Hey man, sorry I haven't replied in a while--I've been extremely busy. Anyways, Halloween was one of my relaxation days and my friends and I used it to its fullest. We hit the bars and had a LOT to drink. So many people, so many costumes; it was like one massive Halloween ball. So yeah, it was pretty damn fun... Aside from the following morning that is. Good to see you had fun as well... Man, I almost wish I could go back and go trick or treating again... Spook kids an all... Good times... And that's awesome you got that edition of Gears--I just picked up Ninja Gaiden 2 (with the sleeve of course). It's fun, but it has a SHITTY ending and a wealth of bosses which require no strategy to beat.

Sweet, I'm not sure what I'm gonna be, but I will definitely be able to think of something. Me and a friend are actually going to a nice area of town, and I think we're gonna score some candy.

Yes I would recommend grabbing up on some other Region DVDs. Yes and they do sell All Region DVD Players, but most likely you have to buy them online, or look here ( http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks ) and some other sites for region-unlock codes (AKA region hacks) for specific models bought in stores. I bought mine off of Amazon.com, and even though there is no Eject button on the remote, the player is one that will "learn" the DVDs, so if I pause a movie halfway through, and take out the DVD and play a bunch of other DVDs, when I pop that DVD back in, it "remembers" where I stopped watching and continues from that point. So that, coupled with the fact that it arrived from Amazon already hacked to be Region-Free, and I didn't have to do anything, and it works perfect on all region DVDs, are the reasons I love it. They are very cheap now, I would suggest getting a Region Free Player, then you can order DVDs around the world. I just got that "Spider-Man" 90's cartoon DVD, and so far, it has only been released in the UK. I was able to jump on the opportunity of this world premiere release. I know what you mean with the Steelbooks too. The one Holy Grail of Steelbooks in the world, to me, happens to be the EzyDVD "X-Men: The Last Stand" Steelbook, ironically. I actually have a connection who's willing to sell it to me (after years of trying to locate it, this guy is the last person on the internet who has an attainable copy!!). If I get it, that will mean I will have 3 editions of X3 and all from around the world. Fancy that.

Another thing about the Region 1 version of X3 is that some DVDs were shipped to stores with only 11 or 21 deleted scenes instead of the full 22. This is purely random, and it sucks if you get a copy that has only 11. This is besides the Alternate Scenes, which there are 3.

This Region 2 2-Disc DVD comes with the full 22 Deleted Scenes.

So here is what is on "X-Men: The Last Stand" Two-Disc Special Edition. As you can see, Disc 2 is chock full of extras, and its a shame it was NEVER RELEASED in Region 1 (sore subject for me). There is supposedly an Easter Egg on Disc 2 as well, but I haven't found it yet. I am also thinking of ripping the entirety of D2 and torrenting it.

Disc 1

The same as the Region 1 barebones edition with the exception of "Easter Eggs" and a "The Simpsons Movie" Sneak Peek.

Hey Doom,

As far as Disney/Marvel goes, well they DID drop Narnia 3 because the second film was so violent, so I don't know, dude. Their motivations are questionable if you ask me. Plus I have a friend who did some research on Disney when he was searching for the old "Swiss Family Robinson" movie and found out that Disney bought the rights and then destroyed every last copy around the world so they could be the sole owners and their version would be the only one (back when VHS was still abundant). So to me, it sounds as if they like to buy things out to force their versions on people.

Well I guess I am not doing shit for Halloween but I did want to at least find a Halloween Store around my area to seek out a Jason or Spidey mask. So far, no luck.

And I'll leave another comment for what's on X3.

I don't have much going on, I'll probably pass out candy. I'm going to dress up as zombie Billy Mays. you dressing up?

thanks dude.. appreciate it. anyways, i am really liking the new banner at the end of the page check it out.. i think i included everything i wana watch from 2010 any additions from you? i'd be glad to hear them.. :D

Man, there great. Its similar to Devil May Cry and Resident evil.

good good mate.. now check my profile and give me feedback.. :P :D

I'm back to playstation 2. There are some games I wanna play that I never had the chance to like Jak 3 and Onimusha Dawn of Dream's.

Hey man, sorry it's taken so long to respond--been a bit busy recently. As for new games, I've actually wanted to pick up a new one, but every time I go, I simply can't find anything worthwhile--that or Gamestop is fucking things up. Like I want to pick up the new Call of Juarez shooter so I go to it and find that it's only $27. Great. But it has no booklet. And when I buy something I like to get everything I'm paying for, thus--I leave so that by next time, maybe they'll have a full copy. So I come back, and they've amped the price back up to $40. The clerk tells me that they do that sometimes. I don't bother. So I went back just this last weekend, and the USED price is $50!!! I was like, "What is going on with your prices? First it's like $27, then it's $40, now it's $50? What's going on?" So yeah, in between dealing with that, I really haven't found a new game to play--though I do want to check out Borderlands... And I did just play through "Prey" again. A decent FPS if you haven't checked it out. Nearly all of the weapons are "alive" and the level-design is trippy as balls. They were pretty much the archetypes of the portal concept.

Talk about a busy day on Halloween.

what kind of a monster.. oh i hope its not one of those that bites or one of those invisible ones. they scare me the most.

Nothing. I'll be on vacation that day. I won't be dressing up but if anything I may give out some candy to the Trick or Treaters. Honestly things haven't been the same since 9/11. Not that many kids go out Trick or Treating in my area. What about you?

That sounds like fun--especially making up ways to scare the kids--haha. And the pizza... That's a good choice too. Oh, and I saw Trick r' Treat--definitely enjoyed it. A very creative flick with some excellent direction and storytelling. Absolutely loved the sequence with the werewolves--did not see that one coming.

ALOT.. so its woth it.. like, maybe 500 dollars each day..

Hey, no problem about the late reply. And yeah, I think my friend and I have almost gotten all of the achievements for Firefight--we have like 3 levels left I think... And as for Halloween--I'm not sure. I know there are going to be a lot of parties, but I think Ill venture to the bars that night--should be crazier out there, and they should/better have deals on beer... How about you?

well if someone payed me i am more than sure to stay in a haunted house.. idc.. if they are ghosts,, they'll scare you and then go away.. again they are ghosts, they are nothing that can in factually harm you..
the orphanage.. i think that yesterday i was too obsessed with trick r treat that i said trick r treat. if you ask me the question again i'll probably say something else. like sometthing classic, like, scream or nightmare on elm street.. cause they are true classics.. but i hated stuff like "My bloody valentine".. too predictibale..
as well as that.. i hope you're ok becuz of that fallin-off-the-chair thingy.. haha, i love the way i write things.. so funny.

i shall make it even more than that.. maybe get to like 2500.. YEA.. that would be funny.. lets do it.. do you bet i can.. i'm gonna keep on hitting post comment to the point where i die.. but please comment back cause i wont be able to get to your name to write you a comment back.. :P

ummm.. pretty nice questions.. to answer:
1. NO,, are you crazy..
2. Yes,, once in lebanon
3. IDK.. i'd have to say trick r' treat.. i just watched that.. and it is not so typical to the way things go arround.. no in fact its pretty weird.. you should watch that.. i myself enjoyed it more than zombieland... idk,, although zombieland's story sticks out.. it still had a theme used too often. althought it was good, trick r' treat was better.. you never know when shit's gonna happen till it happens in trick r treat.. i love it.

haha.. look at what hapened to my profile becuz i clicked on the post comment button so much.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

o waw.. its been a while since i have talked to anyone on this thing.. its like really been a while. i've been busy lately.. like realy.. its college, car, girl and everything else.. imma busy man.. haven't been on here in a while.. i watched zombieland.. pretty good movie. and planning to watch trick r' treat soon. what's up with you.

Oh, man--I really want to see Trick r' Treat... I went to rent it, but every copy had already been taken. Thus, I saw some Ghosthouse Underground films: The Children (not bad--really nice direction/editing) and Seventh Moon (again, not bad--it's by one of the directors of Blair Witch). And my friend and I are still working on Firefight within ODST--we got damn far the other day, but the damn grenade Grunts keep getting in the way. And if you're looking at schools for art (isn't that what you want to do?), you should check out the one I'm finishing right now--The Savannah College of Art and Design. One of my friends is actually in an EA class/internship now--they've actually been working on concept designs for the new Army of 2 game coming out.

I hear you and totally agree. If they start putting Zak Efrom in Marvel movies or Amanda Bines I'm gonna start kicking some ass. As for the rest of your comment, you bring up a valid point on the matter of where in the hell did Marvel suddenly decide that they need to sell the company? Well, I can tell you one thing - Joe Quesada being the CEO is never a good option for a company in the first place. Chances are my theory is correct on the assumption that it was his decision. So far, he has pissed me off again and again while "running" or attempting to run Marvel. Somewhere, Stan the Man is PISSED. Also, my sentiments exactly on how the hell is Disney going to portray The Punisher - I've been asking that question since I heard the news along with how the hell are they going to tell Ghost Rider? These are two dark stories, filled with violence and vengeance. Marvel is NOT suitable for children. Yet I have a feeling there gonna make every character in Marvel like a Saturday morning cartoon vibe now.
