    DVD
    Pink Panther 2


    [Only at Top CD on Friday]
    Steve Martin (who, he says, loves to do broad physical comedy)
    Chief Inspector Dreyfuss (John Cleese) enters into the slapstick fray (Cleese states that at his age he might be afraid of forgetting lines but never of the physical comedy, which he loves)
    Pink Panther 2 is enormously entertaining, a film where you can forget about your day-to-day worries and struggles (with the entire family, if you want, since it's PG) while remaining immersed in Inspector Clouseau's unusual world, where detective work is easy, charming and romantic (no matter what is actually going on!).
    Earlier Peter Sellers/Blake Edwards Pink Panther movies were homages to the Silent Films greats (Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin) and a parody of the French police force. Therefore, the plot in the current Pink Panther 2 is simple (and almost inconsequential, in contrast to the physical comedy)
    For tons of laughs at Clouseau's hilarious predicaments and to restore a smile to your daily regimen, watch Pink Panther 2 - you'll be glad, as I was, that you did!

    Game
    Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

    Well FUN!
    Ok it doesn’t follow the storyline of the film verbatim but in a transformers game I think it’s understandable. The Graphics seem a little sparse on the PS2 but I’ve checked PS3 and Xbox 360
    Sweet!
    I’m actually shocked I’m usually true to my PC game self. But this is so awesome. The Tutorial already has you in the battle so you can already beat up bad guys while learning the ropes.

    9/10 get it get it now. Seriously go to the store and wait till it opens if you have to

    CD
    Iron Maiden Flight 666
    It like big guns upstairs told Iron Maiden when they started out listen your gonna be an amazing band forever so um you’ll probably need amazing voices forever too so well here you go
    Just like ACDC this band doesn’t seem to have aged. I totally dig the new Album Flight 666 seriously takes you to hell and back with it’s awesome 2 CD full of live performances. And honestly the only way to tell a true fan from a wannabe is the true fan always gets the live albums.
    From Aces high to Hallowed be thy name this CD is gonna rock you hard. If you wanna get in on the awesomeness of iron maiden this album is a good place to start. With a mean sampling of their powerful music

    Movies
    Marley and Me

    So here I am with another Owen Wilson Movie on my hands. Now I loved “You, me and Dupree” and this looked to be another film of that calibre. Basically in this one Owen is way more serious or Adult as most Reviewers are saying. We can’t forget that lovable dog of the film and it’s influence on Jen and Owen to love unconditionally in there new marriage and live in a new city.
    DVD has some reasonably good extra features like “more marley moments”
    Overall a film that all Animal Lovers must have and if you wanna get brownie points with your girlfriend buy it for her and watch it with some hot Cocoa, Tiny Mashmallow’s and a Blanket.

    Game
    Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10


    16 Courses
    TPC Sawgrass, St. Andrews, Bay Hill, Firestone Country Club, Doral, Wentworth, Harbour Town, Pebble Beach, Bethpage Black course, TPC Boston and East Lake Golf Course.
    While the putting system is incredibly rewarding, the Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 team failed to make any substantial adjustments to the current swing mechanism in place for off-the-tee situations. While the current system is still playable and enjoyable enough, it would be nice to see the Tiburon team implement more of a one-to-one ratio for your swing, much like the Wii version of Tiger 10. The fluidity of the swing should have more of an impact than it does. Although the game does reward you for good tempo on a full swing, it’s still difficult to master a smooth takeaway and follow through for your in-between shots.
    It’s definitely a game for the Avid golf fan who can’t get out to the courses in the game and one that wants the golf experience without the hassle of walking around the course
    Awesome game 7/10

    CD
    Winterstasie – Antimaterie


    So as far as first albums go it doesn’t sound like it’s recorded in the lead singers Mom’s garage and well you’d think that’s that. But winterstasie is so much more. One of the songs I’m happy to see on the SA Top 10 and a view of the future of South African Afrikaans music. Personal Favourites off the Album 5 wie is jy and 8outokrasie van die hart with Bouwer Bosch (Straatligkinders)
    Sweet album art that gives you something to look at while enjoying the music

    Russian Cosmonauts on the International Space Station have been told by their officials to use only the Russian built Toilet and not the American one

    Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
    DVD
    Rock n Rolla


    Brilliant in my opinion ok your thinking that like Snatch and Lock Stock something goes missing and they have to find it again. And you’d be right.
    Although it’s a new cast from those two films so different personalities are brought to the screen. Have to say I personally enjoyed the one scene where Gerard Butler of (300) is running from a Russian Mobster. Brilliantly filmed. Although it’s words away from his role as a Spartan I recon they couldn’t have had anyone else as that character. I thoroughly enjoyed it, It’s not snatch or lock stock and it’s not trying to be.

    Black Hotels - Films for the Next Century

    I had the pleasure of interviewing them back when Beautiful Mornings first came out last year the five Track EP. Now you could by that or you could go ahead and just admit you like them enough to buy the new hotness. “Films for the next century” and while the album says films I think it’s music. This stuff is incredible. If you expecting to see their old tracks on here rather request it in total Radio takeover. This is all new and well worth the money Shapes and Kings is the Business but Holes is a must listen to if you ask me.
    7/10

    Game
    Grand Slam Tennis

    The one thing I have to say I enjoy about Wi is it’s not trying to be stunningly realistic with graphics that try to make you think you’d prefer the games world to your own. And it seems like Microsoft and Sony now want to catch up with Wi
    Also they bought the name rights in this game so unlike something like Pro Evolution you can use real tennis player names. Also the control is dynamic in that it doesn’t just rocket the ball back to the other side of the field, you can slice lob and drop shot like in real tennis but without the stress of things like sun and running around
    Definitely a fun game that proves my claim last week that gaming is no longer about being a couch potato trying to get the high score it’s time to work for your points as being number one

    Saw V

    Half a Billion Dollars worldwide from the first four movies it’s no wonder

    Jigsaw is back with his Twisted plans to rid the world of the morally corrupt
    Or his he?
    Well this week It was saw on the cards for me. I’ve only ever seen the second half of the first film, channel surfing on a Friday you find thestrangest things
    So I have to say it’ll make sense most of it anyway but don’t go thinking you can watch this film and pretend you know all about the Saw saga. If you’ve seen the original films you’ll understand the whole film
    Although in all honesty it does jump around a lot between the other films adding in bits of storyline to that which has previously happened.
    Overall a Fightening frenzy of plot twist and violence.
    And somewhat perfect of the current weather condition if you want your boy or girlfriend holding you tight while you see what’s gonna happen next in this unbelievable saga

    EA Sports Active

    I’m breaking out into a sweat again just thinking about this weeks game.
    Basically I went in there with the idea that EA Sports Active is for the coach potato gamer. Just something to make you feel better about spending 5days a week trying to get the high score on all those other games.
    Not exactly, put your untouched gym clothes on and prepare to burn, build and sweat. The program is like your own personal trainer and unlike someone screaming at you in the gym to lift the earths own weigh on a machine you may have seen in Saw. This is actually fun. It’s got high scores sweet graphics and fits in to any work schedule. Tonnes of work outs so you don’t get bored. I haven’t heard of people getting super built off it yet but you could be the first.

    Lacuna Coil Shallow Life

    Wow. I throughly enjoyed this Album from start to finsh. Being honest about it I think it has a Ill Nino meets evanescence feel to it.
    Don Gilmore produced it (he’s also worked with the likes of Linkin Park and Pearl Jam, so he knows what he’s doing)
    I’ve only listened to it for a short time but definitley track 11 is my favourite. Spellbound is awesome I’m not denying that but Unchained is what makes the album for me. And Track 2 I won’t tell you is certainlya song that would have been missed if it wasn’t on there.
