So good. I missed it so, I tell thee.

Fun fact:
In the UK, Stiletto had an Italian accent. (Si, Baroni.)
In the US, Stiletto had a cockney accent. (Roooight, Baroni.)

If I hadn't known this before starting the set, I would've thought I was going insane.

Haven't finished The Shield Season 1, I bought it awhile ago.

I just watched "Cherry Poppers" and it was a really good episode. This is a very hard nosed show...very edgy.

I gotta wait for a phone call from work, so I've been watching The King of Queens Season 4 all day. Great show.

How much do you spend on anime? Wow.

Every aspect of Bandai's release of Planetes is top notch, well worth your hard earned money.

About $500 a week give or take. Got just about everything out there that interests me so soon its just going to be new releases so it will go down a lot.
 
Gunslinger Girl vol#1
Full Metal Alchemist vol#2&3
Tenjho Tenge vol#1
Baki the Grappler vol#1
Gatchaman Box#1
Gantz vol#5

Still have a backlog of movies and such to go through..but I had to watch these hot anime series first after finishing off Giant Robo and the Ginrei specials. I forgot to pick up Planetes last week, so I have to make a stop on the way home tonight. Glad I popped in this thread.

.hacked and I were separated at birth. ;)
 
Backlog:
Fullmetal Alchemist vol. 3
Paranoia Agent vols. 3 & 4 (missed the last four episodes or so due to it being licensed during the fansubbing last year)
Scrapped Princess vol. 1 (I've see the entire series on fansubs, but still nice to support the official relase)
Planetes vol. 1 (same as above)

in that order.

This movie still holds up so well. There were still some scenes that made me tingle, just like when I saw it in the theater in 2002.

Now the second movie I've been watching is sorta a guilty pleasure for me, I know a lot of people around here didn't think too highly of it.

Yeah, I actually enjoyed it in the theater and then went so far as to pick up the DVD Twin Pack that included The Last Samurai (which was a steal for only $21). To be honest Troy loses a lot on repeat viewings. I've fallen asleep THREE times trying to watch it on dvd.
 
I've watched The Simpsons seasons 4 and 5 sets over the past couple of weeks, watching an episode, then again with commentary. Season 6 comes out in two months, whee.

I'll probably start on season 1 again tonight :)

Most recently watched?

The Incredibles (great. Loved the darker edge of this movie over Pixar's other stuff)
Harold and Kumar go to White Castle (pretty funny. The giant bag of weed and cheetah were my favourite!)

Criminally underrated. Perfect cast. The only show that can have you laughing one second and crying the next. I just finished watching the episode (#5?) where all three main characters' patients die, and it got to me...

I wouldn't say it's underrated, it's just no one will give it a chance in the first place. If you can get someone to watch five episodes of it, straight, they will be hooked.

I spent all my money on the whole Babylon 5 collection after a lot of huge reccomendations. I'm over halfway through Season 2 and enjoying it - I've heard it only gets better too.
 
King of the Hill - Season Three - I think the show is good, not great and went into a pawn shop and found it in shrink wrap for $14.99 new. Its a pretty damn good show and am probably going to find Seasons 1, 2, and 4 for the cheap now.

The Simpsons - Season Five - Watch an episode here and there before I got the above DVD. Usually I pop it in before working if I have a spare 20 minutes or so. I want to find the second season for cheap. I'm avoiding the first like the plague and am looking forward to the sixth season.

Terminator 2 (UMD) - My first UMD purchase. I never watched this movie before and thought it was great. I was going to snag Van Wilder for $15 at Best Buy since they had plenty of those (but were almost sold out of T2's but the guy there said they got in about 30 of them so they've been moving).

Thats it for now. I always come close to putting in Da Ali G Show S1 but never put it in.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

quite entertaining. A tad scary but not as scary after you'd seen Jap Grudge 1 + US Grudge

B00006L9UC.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg


started on episode one the other night. I liked it. Funny

I need to go out and buy moonwalker soon. Man, The Black or White controversy wouldn't exist in this day and age.

Stunningly good series, and I finally got round to watching the DVDs this last week on PSP. There's one truly stunning moment in the last episode that I'd forgotten about completely, which is nice.
