For all of your familiar with the spectacular television show, Doctor Who, you may also be aware of the fan-created music known as Timelord Rock. If you are familiar, one of the most well-known bands is probably the geniuses known as Chameleon Circuit. Their newest album, released just yesterday, is Still Got Legs. Though it is extremely different from the album before it (Chameleon Circuit), it is still a great album!

The TARDIS USB Hub is a must for any casual or hardcore fan of the popular and record-breaking BBC show known as Doctor Who. The product is officially licensed by the BBC, and sells at a rather cheap price depending on your supplier. It is a truthful mini replica of the Doctor's vehicle, and features a very pretty package which makes the device appear as if it is hurtling through its very own mini time vortex.

THE PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE is and was a Brian de Palma film first released to the public in 1974. This film is a satirical outtake of many of the aspects of the time period, and takes a comical spin on everything from The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari to The Phantom of the Opera. More prominent in its storyline is the Phantom of the Opera type twist and tone. Today, the film is a popular cult film.

Based off of the movie, and with hidden pieces from the book equivalent by J. K. Rowling, this video game is great for both casual fans of both the books and the movie. While the movie fan can endeavor in completing the nicely laid-out story line, which closely resembled the movie, hardcore fans of the book can find hints dropped here and there from the books. Easter eggs in this game range from subtle hints to the ruins of Harry's birthplace, which is a section cut from the movie, and added to the game (by option, you have to examine [A] to see the exchange of words between Harry and Hermione). The game itself is more faithful to the book than the movie, overall, and its beautifully rendered graphics immerse the player into the world of Harry and his friends.


One can explore the woods in which the trio hide at the beginning of the movie, the coffee shop in which the trio was ambushed, Grimmauld place, Godric's Hollow, and more in this amazing game. You must battle everything from dementors and acromantulas, to Death Eaters and Voldemort himself! The game is also compatible with Kinnect for the XBOX360. 


As the back of the video game reads: Out of Hogwarts and on the run. Fight Voldemort's Death Eaters. Battle terrifying magical creatures. Use Kinnect to cast spells in [twenty two] 22 unique single and two-player challenges.

This game does have an update for those with XBOX Live, and it also has challenges which are connected to XBOX Live leaderboards. So if you want to, be the BAMF wizard you've always wanted to be, and kick some leaderboard behind. Then plaster your name on it. Yup.


To the readers: Excuse me if the graphics are horrible, the graphics are much better. I used a camera to take pictures of the screen, as I don't have the software to take screenshots of the game I run on my XBOX360. Seriously, the pics don't do this game justice. At. All.

Another of the Sims 3 expansion packs, Sims 3: Late Night is definitely not a disappointing game. Like its predecessors (Sims 3: World Adventures and Sims 3: Ambitions), it is chock full of new features.

If you have a fasterskills mod downloaded, you must delete it and download and updated version, or else your Sims will refuse to do anything involving the new expansion pack.

This section is the rating for the general public, as in the ones that aren't major Potterites and/or haven't read the book.

The highly anticipated first half of the final film in the Harry Potter series, this film has been hyped, hyped, and then rehyped. However, is it really worth all the hype? Trust me, I love Harry Potter. In fact, Harry Potter's damned amazing... But this film was somewhat of a major letdown. Despite its amazing acting (as per usual), and Daniel Radcliffe's amazing sexy, it didn't pack the punch which the earlier movies (such as Prisoner of Azkaban and Chamber of Secrets had). It is directed by David Yates, and distributed by Warner Brothers as per usual.

The Mission is a 1986 film which is based upon the real story of Jesuit missions within the Guaraní. The Guaraní are a native tribe that lives off the land in the forests and jungles of South America. Directed by Roland Joffé, this stunning film is filled with historically accurate twists and turns. It's one of those rare movies that makes you wonder... A good movie will make you look twice, a great movie will make you think, but a truly amazing movie makes you wonder. This movie is no exception to this rule...

The highly anticipated sequel to The Force Unleashed, Force Unleashed II hit store and video game shop shelves across the world on both October 26, 2010 and October 29, 2010.

Already with a booming fan following, both veterans of the Force Unleashed series and newcomers will love this game. However, due to its heavy focus on skills, button smashing, and some luck, it is not recommended for casual gamers! Below, you'll find a score breakup of all the areas graded. Want some tips?

A late release of songs which were recorded between the dates of September 4, 1962 until January 4, 1970 and beyond. The song list is immense, and contains many of The Beatles' amazing hits. They have a wide selection of moods and songs, as well. I find that combined with the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album on my iPod, the two CD's alone are great for any mood.


The disk is great for any Beatles fan, from young to old, and from a fan to a seasoned fanatic. Containing obscure songs suck as Old Brown Shoe, Ballad of John and Yoko, and The Inner Light, and some more well-known songs such as Let it Be and Day Tripper. Now if only I could get my hands on Mono Masters, because that CD has Hey Bulldog on it... Stupid iTunes versus Beatles legal argument. Hmph.
