Review: My Super ExGirlfriend...

mysuperex315x280.jpg

I saw the movie over the weekend. I didnt have too high expectations, but I wanted something to make me laugh, and I really like Luke Wilson (Old School). Its got a funny bunch of characters in the movie and the character advising Luke with his female issues is probably the worst advisor on women I have ever seen. He has his predicaments at work, and this whole movie is about funny situations, and just keeps getting funnier. There is nothing deep about this movie, its just all entertiainment, but at some points its pretty damn corny. The one actress that annoys the hell out of me is the chick from the office (From Scary Movie 5). If you want to just laugh then you should probably see this movie, it will hit the spot. Its just a little bit corny at certain points and thats all you can really complain about.

Noodle House Dubai...

I give this place 3 out of 5

This restaurant is located in Emirate Towers, and it conveniently located on the ground floor. Its a mix of Chinese and Thai food. The atmosphere is very nice, and they have a few tables for people to sit at, but usually you sit on benchs with other people so its pretty different.When you order there is chart and a pen for you to Mark what you want. There are lots of waitresses running around left and right, so its got a fun feeling to it! I ordered a different variety of dishs on the menu. And I got a 7-up, just really felt like it. They had a lot of juices to choose from, but I didnt feel like it. The starters came out, and we started grubbing, then the food started coming out 20 mins later. We were hungry as hell!

The Dishs I recommend:

  • Sweet and sour Chicken
  • Szecheun Beef
  • Singaporian Chicken and Shrimp noodles
  • Chilli Shrimp (if you like hot)

The vegetable fried rice wasnt good though! So I dont recommend that! The food overall was good, nothing great but it hit the spot. I will probably go back there if Im in Dubai, its a good place for quick bites. But we left there stuffed!

Review: Click...

So I was feeling like an Adam Sandler movie, and I thought this might be funny. It was too far off though! It isnt the typical Adam Sandler stuff, and it had a bit of deeper meaning to it, but I like the movie. Its basically about him having a remote control which can turn your life into a dvd where you can fast forward through things and go back as well. And you can also go to the menu and see the special features of your life which is pretty cool. If you want to watch a movie just for a nice laugh nothing too comical then I recommend this movie, but if your not a fan of Adam Sandler then dont watch this movie. And Kate Bechinsale is rediculously hot! I was going to give this movie a 2.5 out of 5, but because she is in Im giving it a 3 out of 5.

Review: Superman...

supermanreturns1.jpg

Im not going to ruin the story for anyone who reads this. But I have to say that this is a very well done movie. Some people didnt like it because it didnt have enough action and they wanted to see more. I have to take my hat off to the director, producer, and everybody who did work on it. Because they stuck to the orignal story line! Since I used to be a comic fanatic I understand how they did this movie. They did justice to the Superman legacy. I really recommend this movie, because the storyline is original and the acting was great. It is really worth seeing, and I just felt good about watching this movie.

Review: Ah My Goddess!...

ah_my_goddess1.jpg

ahmygoddessclr.jpg

Plot Summary: While staying alone in his dormitory, college student Keiichi Morisato was trying to call some restaurants for delivery when he accidentally called the Goddess Help Line. Suddenly, the mirror near him glowed and a beautiful goddess named Belldandy appeared out of it. She granted Keiichi his one wish for her to be his girlfriend forever. After being kicked out of the dorm, Keiichi and Belldandy now live in an old temple with her sisters Urd and Skuld.

This is one hell of anime. I kep hearing that this is a really good anime, but I never really believe the hype. When I started watching this show all I could do was laugh at Keichi and his predicamints. Then Belldandy popped into the scene, and turned everything upside down. Since she is a goddess who helps good people who are unfortunate. And to say that Keichi is unfortunate is an understatment. This story is original and takes twists and turns I havent seen before. Then her sisters from heaven Urd, and Skuld pop in because they miss her and want to be with her. With all the friends and family with this huge bunch its one great romantic comedy. You really get drawn into the story and I wasnt happy that I finished it. Its one of those animes that you want more of! I really liked it and recommend it to people!

Review: Dai Gaurd...

dai-guard-8.jpg

Plot Summary: Thirteen years after their sudden disappearance, an alien race known as the Heterodyne resurface without warning. To combat the Heterodyne, three office workers from the 21st Century Security Corporation operate Dai-Guard – a giant robot no longer regarded as an oversized paperweight. Unfortunately, Dai-Guard is somewhat obsolete and in disrepair. It’s a tough job, but salarymen can also save the world.

This an anime mixed with mecha and comedy! Its pretty good, but you have probably seen better. Even though this Robot hasnt been used for 13 years and is basically a paper weight for the Public Relations department of a Security company its still has some fight left in him. And when the aliens come back again to destroy people on the earth the only thing standing between them and total anihialation is Dai-Gaurd! The cool part about this anime is that the people maintaining the Robot is a bunch of office people in the PR Department. And the Mascot of the company is the main pilot! Its pretty funny, and enjoyable even though there are parts where it drags. I still liked it! I recommend for people who want a laugh, and to get caught up in a good anime.

Everyone loves extra storage, and more storage! You can never have enough storage! You are always bound to run out of storage! Enough about storage let us go to the device!

This is the Seagate Portable HD, and I have the 160 GB version. Have you ever been over at friend’s place, and wanted to transfer movies, a lot of pictures, or mp3s and it would take too long to burn to DVD. And most other external HDs are just too bulky and some require software to be installed. This is your perfect solution!

Pros:

  • Large amount of space
  • Very fast USB 2.0 transfer (480 Mbps)
  • Very compact case
  • No power cord neccesary, powered through the USB.
  • No software neccesary, completely plug-n-play.
  • Works on Windows and Macs
  • Very Durable Case, and internal structure.
  • Not heavy at all
  • Software available for back-up use (Never tried it)

Cons:

  • A bit pricey, and not available everywhere.

Price: $250.00

Review: Full Metal Panic: 2nd Raid...

FMP!-The-Second-Raid.jpg

Plot Summary: This series is set about two months after the events ocurred in the Tuatha de Danaan at the end of the original series. Mithril becomes aware of a secret organization that has technology able to counter the ECS (Electronic Cloaking System) mode. This organization, known as Amalgam, also has “Black Technology”, obtained from “Whispered” like Kaname Chidori, and like the other intelligency agencies, they intend to obtain more. However, when Sousuke’s mission to protect Chidori is terminated by Mithril, all seems to be in place for Amalgam’s plans… Like many of its fans know, it is based of the FMP novel “The End of Day by Day.”

This is one amazing continuation of the the first Full Metal Panic! Unlike FMP-Fumoffu this isnt comedy based, even though it does have its moments. There is a lot of depth to it, and this time Mithril is fighting off an unknown enemy who have similar if not better technology to them. The plot line is fantastic, the depth of characters get even better. And the mecha action is so good that I cant get enough of it! This series ended so well but I still want more!

Review: IOGEAR DVI KVM...

iogear_logo2.gif

I know a lot of people use KVMs and basically they all do the main job of transfering between multiple computers all on to one screen,keyboard, and mouse. But I needed something with higher quality build and for heavy duty use.

kvm.jpg
Pros:

  • Quality of video is very high.
  • Up to Four Computers
  • DVI input and output
  • USB connection not Keyboard and Mouse to the computer(I like this)
  • You can switch sound from one computer and screen output from another. You can listen to sound from one computer and work on another computer.
  • The Items connected by USB to the KVM will switch to the computer active on the screen.
  • It comes with 4 KVM cables so you dont need to buy anything extra unlike other KVMs.
  • I think it looks extremely smooth, and its very solid.

Cons:

  • You have to be on the computer you want when you boot it up or it will go to the basic visual setting (800×600)
  • It is known to have some problems currently with computers with nVidia motherboards.

Connected:

  • Dell UltraSharp 2005FPW
  • Alienware Small Case Computer
  • Large Main Desktop
  • Sometimes Laptop with DVI adaptor
  • Logitech Speakers 2.1
  • Logitech USB MX518 Mouse
  • Logitech Wireless Keyboard

Overall: The audio connections are analog and not optical. Some people might see this as a negative but how many consumer KVMs come with optical audio? There is a connection for the audio out and the microphone! So you can switch between computers easily. I think this KVM does the job very well, and there are a lot of different keyboard-short cuts to switch different things between computers which makes it very flexible. Not just normally switching, so you have other options. I have bought other KVMs before, and none of them have included all the cabling with them before. I have given this product 4 out of 5 which is very good, but its because the problem with the mother board and its a little expensive, but other then that its a fantastic product. And it is also known to be apple friendly.

Price: MSRP $359.00 – Amazon $264.00

Review: Glory Road...

gloryroad.jpg

This is based on a Basket Ball team in Texas. Its the Texas Western University Basketball team in the NCAA Division one basketball. The coach has his first try to take a team to the top. And this is all taking place in the 1966, and at the peak of racial America. The difference of color was really made known, and especially in Texas. They were facing a hard time with all the other teams, as well as the difficulty of facing racial America. At the time nobody was starting African Americans on basketball teams. They were always on reserve! But this coach Haskins was different! He didnt see color, all he saw was a basketball skills and how he could form a formidable team that could win. I think this movie had characters who had a great combination together, each one with his own struggle and complementing the other character. But then in the end they were all fighting for the championship as one team! It was great, and really enjoyable!
