Term, what did you think of the fourth season? And what's your favorite day of Jack Bauer's (so far)?

I really enjoyed this season. The fact that I waited to see it on dvd was a real + in my books. The transfer was excellent, both audio & video but anyways;

My favorite season (day) so far is either 2 or 3. The prison break in Season 3 was intense. People were disappointed with Season 4 early on because of the cast. In my opinion, if the returning cast didn't come back, that wouldn't of effected my judgement of the series. Its about a day in the life Jack Bauer & to think everyone in his past should be surrounding him is ignorant. Day 3 was about the virus outbreak right? I liked that season the best because you see a lot of Bauer undercover & it was more intense than Season 4. However, I like all 4 seasons. Each has their own unique style for such a unique idea of a tv show. 24 Rocks!

16 Blocks- Pretty good action/thriller.

Death of a Salesman- Powerful, but it LITERALLY felt too staged.

STAR WARS (1977)

The original. The classic. Before Lucas started tinkering with scenes and updating the effects. Not that I mind all of the changes that have been made to the trilogy over the years, but I'm glad I have the original versions too. It's nice to have a choice, even though Darth Flannel won't make them available to the fans.
It doesn't get any better than this.

If you missed it before, here's my review from Review Hell: bartboard.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=reviews&action=display&n=1&thread=1244

After TURKISH STAR WARS, (You can read that review here: bartboard.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=reviews&action=display&n=1&thread=1267 ) I had to watch the original again to wash away the bad taste. ;D

Actually, I liked the staged feel of the movie. Having seen it performed on stage, I felt it was a nice effect.

I didn't care much about this.

Saw: Exorcist - The Beginning; the hyenas still suck but overall I still like the film a lot. Good to have it.

Failure to Launch (2006)

This is a sweet, sentimental, funny movie. The supporting cast for the most part in hilarious - the acting is good overall. This movie fails where romantic comedies often do: formula. This follows the same basic formula that we grow tired of in the romantic comedy. If you're looking for originality, then for the love of God, skip it. But it's a fun movie to watch, and at least it's better than How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

Story: 4/10
Acting: 8/10
Direction: 10/20
Screenwriting: 14/20
