    The Martian

    This has already been reviewed here: Link to "At The Movies and on TV"

    saw this last night with The Wife (rented from Comlast for $5.99)

    this film exemplifies Hollywood at its best (which is not necessarily meant as a compliment).

    current technology in CG is used at its best.
    good script, good acting, typical plot.
    no blatant omissions despite a few minor errors in the true physics of outer-space.

    we enjoyed it.
    similar to Gravity, also a good movie imho.

    The Martian
    by Ovation
    If it's still at a local cinema, I recommend seeing it on a big screen (unless you have a quite large one at home). Took my daughter to see it last week and we both enjoyed it quite a bit. If you liked Gravity you should enjoy this one as well. Not a philosophical musing on "out there" but...

    "Gravity" and the Oscars
    by madmac
    :roll:

    As much as my daughter and I enjoyed the movie "Gravity", the film SHOULD NOT win an Oscar for best picture, let alone even be nominated. To nominate that film for best picture is a new low for Oscar and the film industry in general. The only redeeming quality of this...

    Am I Crazy - Active Speaker System
    by Chromedome2000
    I've been trying to get up the guts (and money!) to build a home theater system. I want to start with just the front channels now and worry about the surrounds and subwoofer later. I'd like to go active and have been bouncing some ideas around in my head. This is what I've come up with so far.
