Yee Gads! The Core2 Duo MacBook Pros are Out!

Filed under: Geeks and Gadgetry — Mike @ 7:58 am

They are finally here.

Now the true test of my willpower begins.  The 17.4″ model is available only with the 2.33 Ghz Core2 Duo (Merom) processor.  The board also supports up to 3 GB of memory (2 GB is now standard).  I’m surprised they aren’t offering Aperture as an installation option anymore, though.

Nevertheless, this is a sexy piece of technology.  Apple’s design/marketing worked: I need this in my life.

NBC Cutting Back

NBC Cutting Back (Reality Game Shows over Comedies & Dramas)
A sign of the times for Network TV. Comedies and Dramas just cost to much to produce compared to the “Fear Factor” and “Deal or No Deal” type of shows. I just hope they pick-up “Heroes” for at least a second season.

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny

Come.  Let us watch the greatest movie of all time!  Here’s a sneak peek. (Warning: Inappropriate language abounds awesomely.)

What is it about Japanese Horro Flicks?

Filed under: Movies — xraytech @ 5:34 pm

I just finished watching “The Grudge II“ 

I know, I know, I know… 

“The Grudge II” is not a Japanese Horror Flick. It’s a US adaptation of the second installment in the “Ju-On” series. 

Anyways, I’m back home and I Googled a short little article that compares US Horro vs Japanese Horro. It’s actually a review of the film “Ôdishon” (yet another film of that genre) but in the article it compares why Japanese Horro will always outdo its US counterparts. 

Oh… By the way, “The Grudge II”… Very scary. I could only Imagine how much scarier the Japanese Original will be
