  1. A few pages back someone mentioned 8mm, I watched that yesterday and thought it was pretty good. Gonna watch Deliverance tonight.

    I just watched 8mm again last night too. Everytime I want to watch one of my DVDs (I have over 1000) I have a hard time deciding. So I just started to watch from the beginning of my collection. Anytime I feel like watching something I'll watch the next one on the shelf. Night before last I watched 6th day.

  2. One of my all time favorite shows. I have the whole series on DVD. I got into it when it first aired. It's been a long time since watching it. Think I'll start watching from the beginning.

    Here's a couple X-Files pictures I drew a long time ago.

  3. I thought it was an incredible finish. Very satisfying for me overall.

    Ozymandias was the peak as far as the "action" goes, the final two episodes really tied up the story and the character overall.

    I love how Gilligan gave us the ending that most had hoped for / predicted, but as always, presented it in a way that kept you guessing throughout.

    He had so many "fan favourite" elements in the final episode... the bacon birthday plate, Walt got his "science geek" on with the M60, the ricin finally got used, we got to see the meth lab one more time, he had a true, honest moment with both Jesse and Skylar. I loved it. :)

    Exactly how I feel.

  4. I'm guessing that the reason why Walt got the weapon is because he's probably gonna try to kill the nazis to make sure they leave his family alone, or because they are gonna kill them all leaving Walt with the option of revenge. As far as Jesse goes... He was my favorite character but I'm pretty sure he won't make it next episode. They're gonna kill him as soon as Todd knows how to make the formula. Another possibility is Walt gets the weapon to save Jesse who's still working for the nazis, but I doubt that because the time spaces between this point on the show and the future in wich Walt has a full beard and hair are like 2-3 months apart from each other, meaning Jesse would already be dead, formula or no formula.

    Either way, I believe Walt will die.

    I see it the other way: the final battle will be between Walt and Jesse. If anyone is a threat to anyone, it's Jesse to Walt and Walt to Uncle Jack and his group. The handshake between Jack and Walt seems to indicate that the white power group has no beef with Walt, but I'm sure Walt isn't as amicable to that agreement. With Walt telling Jesse that he watched Jane die (and the fact that Walt approved Jesse's assassination - along with Todd's intention to torture), if Jesse gets free the first thing he's going to do is go after Walt (possibly through his family). Why would Walt save Jesse at this point? He wants him dead. He stopped being "family" when he sold him out to Hank.

    The final episode will pit Walt against Jesse, err, that's my prediction. Happy to come back and admit I'm wrong if that's the case, just don't see the show ending with Walt going up against a group of characters that were only introduced last season.

    I agree. I believe the last episode will be a showdown between Walt and Jesse.

  5. Now You See Me. I can see why people like it, and why the critics don't. It had a Usual Suspects goes David Copperfield vibe. It's basically a glorified episode of CSI Las Vegas.

    Going to watch it tonight. Looks really good.

    Last night my wife and I watched World War Z. Wasn't too bad. I enjoyed it.

    It's enjoyable without being a work of art or anything. You feel like rewatching again like the Usual suspects.

    I really liked it. I'll definitely watch it again in the near future.
