DVD
Transporter3

Alright so it’s another Transporter film, sure. But why watch a movie with that attitude you might as well have seen the first lord of the rings and given up on the next two.
So Being pretty open minded about this film. I actually enjoyed it. Sure in the beginning I wasn’t sure if the Hot Chick was up to scratch with the previous ones but by the end of the film I was pretty much sold.
Hot Cars, Good Music, Some Nice Explosions and Fight Scenes
Definitely a DVD for any Action Buff’s Collection and Ladies a definite conversation starter when you bring that guy you like home one evening
6/10
Becuase it takes Balls on Jason Stathams Part to Chase a Audi on a Bicycle


Game
Ice Age 3

A Must Have for the Kid in all of us
Part Side Story; Part Following in the film; Part Good clean fun
Of the two film tie-ins here, this one is purely for the children. If you’re not a fan of the prehistoric antics of Manny, Sid and the rest of the gang then this won’t appeal at all, but those that are will probably love it, even though it is a fairly standard 3-D platform game that doesn’t really offer anything new.
Nonetheless, the visual style of the films is recreated nicely, while some of the dialogue may even raise a chuckle among the parents.

• Revisit the humor, characters and prehistoric environments from the movie– Players relive adventures from the film and beyond with all their favorite characters – earnest but goofy Sid the Sloth, big-hearted Manny the Mammoth, courageous Diego the Saber-toothed Tiger and inadvertent troublemaker Scrat – as they all return and join new friends on a wild quest across the frozen Ice Age to the lush Dinosaur World.
• For the first time in an Ice Age game, play as multiple characters – Offering more than six playable characters, the game allows players to master the unique abilities and combat skills of each through a wide variety of gameplay including action-platforming challenges, side-scrolling missions and puzzle solving.
• Introducing competitive multiplayer mini-games – Another first for the Ice Age game franchise, players will go head-to-head with up to four friends or family members in the all-new competitive multiplayer mini-games.
• Experience continuously changing gameplay through more than 15 levels – Every level presents new and exciting challenges as players learn and master each character's abilities in order to defeat enemies, traverse dangerous landscapes, avoid obstacles and escape from perilous situations.

CD
Killswitch Engage


Howard still has the best voice in rock and he does experiment with different vocal harmonies/sounds which is appreciated. His range is incredible!
The newest album from Killswitch Engage was produced by Brendan O'Brien (AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine) and co-produced by guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz.
It was time for us to step outside of our comfort zone and try something a little different with this record. It definitely still sounds like us, but we needed to be refreshed and take things a little further." The singer also comments on the album being the band's second self-titled effort of its career, saying, "When we all couldn't agree on an album title, someone suggested we just keep it self-titled and we all pretty much agreed...gives it the feeling of a fresh new beginning."
My opinion Buy the Album if you a true Killswitch Fan. Don’t go believe what your friends say, you’ve liked there music previously your more than likely to still appreciate them for what they are. A damn good Rock band in todays world
