    Hot Fuzz

    Not sure if this one has made it Stateside yet but I rented it over the weekend and was quite a good laugh. Typical English humour - If you saw and liked Shaun Of The Dead, you'll like this one.

    Setting : Ultra professional Police Officer is promoted and shipped out to a steretypical sleepy English village, primarily because he's makeing everyone else look useless. However all is not how it seems and, well, the bloodbath begins.

    I really enjoyed it - it has a great cast, although maybe not that familiar to those over the pond. Worth a rental at least, but if you're a Simon Pegg fan - a must have.

    Yep, it's over here for a while now.

    Like you, I really enjoyed it and laughed out loud through many of the scenes.

      I almost rented it Saturday but wasn't so sure about it. You guys seemed to like it so that's good enough for me.

        well, I did like "Shaun of the Dead". Thought it was pretty funny. I'll check this one out when I can.

        Well, we're safe for now. Thank goodness we're in a bowling alley.

          After renting this one I am going to buy it. Really like Shaun of the Dead and this is more of the same (which is a good thing). I laughed out loud a lot on this one.

            The wife and I watched it over the weekend.
            Even 'she' thought it was funny.
            I got a real kick out it. Well worth a rental at least.

              Boxsim in English
              by b_force
              Boxsim is a great free program made by Visaton (Germany).
              It was only in German language, but they've updated with a English version!

              by chasw98
              My wife and I rented the movie 'Volver' yesterday and we/she watched it last night. I would like to tell you what it is about but I don't have a clue, except that the title loosely translated in english means "The Return". She lived in Spain for 16 years before we met and taught english to...

              BD review of "Burlesque"
              by madmac
              My wife rented this the other day. The reason why I say this is that I would never have rented it. I tend to stay away from musicals now as a rule because I've been burned too many times sitting and suffering through them. So imagine my utter shock and surprise when I actually enjoyed this film!!. :E...

              Preliminary review of the 802Di, 800Di.... but mostly the Wilson Sophia 3 vs Sasha 2.
              by Joey_V
              As some of you know, I've been searching for my next pair of speakers. My budget for the speaker goes to $50,000. Which is basically Wilson Alexia category. Every speaker I've heard is SOTA... but there are so many different flavors.

              Most recently, I've heard the 800 Diamonds (paired...

              Static? Help please!
              by RNKC
              So recently (past week or so) my right channel tweeter (N802) has started to give me a fuzzy, static-like squelch at random intervals. It sounds like listening to FM radio in the car and you pass through a stretch where the reception isn't so good so you get a bit of fuzz in the sound.
