Penalty!

I can't believe Spurs are actually fighting for it. It doesn't help that United were half asleep in the first half hour either. Come on you reds!

I'd been postponing on watching Shoot Em Up, afraid that it would be another one of those highly rated but ultimately mundane action flicks - but it was just fantabulous! Slugfests galore, wit, a hero of heroic proportions and a hooker played by Monica Belucci. What more can you want in an action flick? I was pleasantly surprised and rather highly entertained.

My rerun of 300 in HD was also surprisingly quite watchable - the high resolution detail goes very well with the visual and dramatic stylisation - and a great movie for the appreciation of eye candy and cinematography alone.

'Course, you need a widescreen panel for that, which are getting cheaper. After quite some time in the wilderness, I finally caved in and got a reasonably priced 22" LCD monitor and I now understand what all the fuss was about - since most movies are distributed in widescreen format these days. Gaming is a bit of a sticky issue though but most new games do have support for widescreen resolutions.

And with a Q6600 at 3.6Ghz on air and a couple of 3870's in crossfire, gaming's bound to be quite a bit enjoyable. ;)
