I am a Rangers Fan - only because work used to have corp tickets to Madison Square Garden and I got to go a few times. Wicked sport live!

Lords of War was really good actually. 5 Stars on Simondo's dodgey Film Review System. Did any of you at least watch my recommended Doggie movie... mini scene within the movie... pretty funny!

After watching Lords of War, I have another thing on my America Bucket List. 1) Play Golf at Pebble Beach, and 2) Go to a rifle range and fire off an AK-47*. * This is the new item on the bucket list!

Also, since watching Lords of War, I find myself researching the gun trade, and guns in general... just curious. Sadistic!? Maybe... I've now seen an interesting looking AK-47 with under-mounted grenade launcher... 400m range on the grenade launcher if I read that correctly! Don't mess with Simondo! Evil weapons though! Made to kill humans...

And... Apple TV is the shiz... Should have bought the $44 Sony DVD player... Basically Apple TV is slicker, and easier to use than Sony Version, which is implanted into my Sony BlueRay DVD Player. Plus, the Sony device seems to not have iTunes... iTunes is like a DVD/Video Shop, and you don't have to leave home, nor do you have to return the bloody thing!!

But, the Apple device will encourage me to spend extra money on movie rental, etc... But that's OK...

Simondo's Star Ratings
Sony DVD Blue-Ray - 3.5 to 4 Stars
Apple TV - 4.5 to 5 Stars

I'm sure the Sony device does some things easily that Apple TV doesn't, such as Billabong (Surf) TV is a channel on the Sony Device... But the Apple TV device has the iTunes Movie Rental network...

Watched this last night... Urban Legends - a B+ grade Horror... So bad in some parts, but at the same time it sucked me in, and I just couldn't turn it off!



Might watch Craigs List Killer at some stage...

Watched Dark night returns ( new Batman). And the campaign with will ferrel last week, campaign was a bit weak but still kinda funny and DKR was pretty good.

Best one I've seen lately is TED, watched it again and very funny.

New Tarantino one should be ok to, just downloaded it.

Yeah, TED was pretty funny!
Which Tarrantino one did you download? Did you pay, or free download... Tell me more!!! I'm still on my Summer Movie Marathon!!

I haven't seen Brad Pitt in MoneyBall yet either... Might have to pay $5 or so to hire through iTunes.

Urban Legends gets 4.5 stars on my dodgey ratings system!

This one gets 5 Stars! It's called "Thursday". A suburban Architect has a shocker of a "Thursday". Vastly different to his recent Thursdays, but more fitting of his Thursday's in a recent past life which he tried to leave behind... It has several fun twists, and ends up as a B+ Cult Movie!

Na mate, if you want to pay for it you will have to go to the movies next week

It's called Django Unchained [ the d is silent]

www.imdb.com/title/tt1853728/

"get him to the Greek" is also funny with Russel Brand
