  • Movies 04/18/08

    85% Forgetting Sarah Marshall - It's hard to forget that this film is being released this week. I think I started seeing previews for it last December. I thought it was already out on DVD.

    58% The Forbidden Kingdom - Jackie Chan and Jet Li in a movie together? Brilliant, if this would been filmed about 10-15 years ago.

    11% 88 Minutes - Not sure what happened here, but it looks like critics hate the new Al Pacino movie. Wait..there is a new Al Pacino movie?

    What a lousy year for movies so far, I dont think even Iron Man or Indy can save 2008 at this point.

    Hi..

     WTF?

    Mortal Kombat 8 will have some sort of DC crossover. Why? It's also rumored that the only thing that made the MK series popular, (blood) will be removed. So sorry Marvel fanboys, you won't be able to rip out Batman's spleen and feed it to him. This call for one more WTF?.

    Xmas in March:

    Despite being March, Nintendo is selling consoles like it's Christmas. The console is still sold out everywhere, and people are buying their games. Lots of them. With the always popular Mario Kart franchise releasing this month, and the possible Goliath known as WiiFit launching in May will they ever be stopped? Let's hope they use this money to fix the awful online experience known as Super Smash Bros. Brawl

    01. Nintendo Wii - 721,000
    02. Nintendo DS - 698,000
    03. PlayStation Portable - 297,000

    05. PlayStation 3 - 257,000

    Ricky Gervais in Grand Theft Auto 4 as himself

    So, it looks like the original Office boss will be making an appearance in the new Grand Theft Auto game. Actually playing as himself. I'm pretty surprised considering the average 15 year old who will play it has no idea who he is. Dane Cook not available?
