Do not see Prince of Persia. Seriously, this movie was the worst I’ve seen in a long, long time. It just did nothing right. Poor special effects at times, cheesy dialogue, predictable but stupid plot, at times poor acting and action sequences that all just felt the same due to the cramped camera angles used throughout.

It suffers from the same issues Pirates of the Caribbean did which is repetitive action sequences thrown into a movie that runs for 30 mins longer than it had any right to. Not surprising since many of the same people at Disney were involved in this train wreck. At least pirates had some rather memorable characters…the guys in this movie range from forgettable to “get the fuck off the screen” worthy.

All in all I recommend a rental at most. I think my friend put it best when he said “Hollywood has a new answer for piracy…just release bad films.” If you want something mindless it might be the best film out there at the moment but myself and my friends thought the Tron trailer was probably the highlight so perhaps save your money for that. $8.50 may even buy you the Sands of Time game even.

Play This Instead

Besides the vibrating electrical vagina here’s a few more sex toys I have accumulated over the past month.

• Samsung Series 7 52″ LCD TV: Lovely little bitch this one. Bigger than I had originally intended but the price was good.
• Onkyo TC-SR706 AV Receiver: Again I got a good price I feel on this one. I’m yet to accumulate the speakers but it’s a start. Only just plugged it in tonight and I still need to get at least one more HDMI cable so my existing DVD player hooks up alright.

So yes, with those devices my “controller” collection for downstairs is at 4 remotes and will have at least one extra once I add the PS3 in due course. I think one of the next purchases will be a Logitech Harmony One remote to consolidate those…but only after I let my bank account recover just a little bit. That and I need a second switch, the before mentioned PS3, some speakers + sub etc etc. Should keep me busy. PS3 and Speakers are the priority so I can make fuller use of the TV. Ohh and I want a home theater PC and when it comes out I may get the new iPhone too although at least that’s on a plan.

As some may know I mentioned I was considering these Sony Speakers the other day for a few months time when I move out. For what it’s worth, the likely candidates now are these 7.2 Sony ones instead. Yeah the two subs is over kill IMHO but ultimatly I’d much rather have the propper amplifier rather than ANOTHER DVD player which the Sony’s come with. Ultimatly the DVD Player won’t give me near the amount of inputs I need I would assume if I am going to have a Wii, PS3, XBox and likely a PC all connected to the one device. I have a DVD Recorder in my room too currently.

In the end it’s probably better to pay a bit more and get a device thats actually designed for the task and as an off shoot, it’ll sound better too. If thats over kill theres also a simularily priced Yamaha one, but if theyre the same price unless the Yamahas sound better I may as well go the larger set and if I like I can leave parts in storage if they really didn’t fit.

Well I guess the popularity of bad movies night’s is reaching an all new high and it was only natural for the films to make their way into cinemas as opposed to straight to DVD.

I present you, Zombie Strippers, featuring Jenna Jameson who I’m sure needs no introduction.
