I have a question off topic, when will the non-micro-atx form factor mobos, of the ati bullhead aka xpress-200 come out, and how much will they cost???
heh ... napoleon dynamite dug a nice little niche in my heart -- I both love and loath it.
I knew people exactly like that in high school (hi tom). And (dare I say it) I identified with the characters on a level I don't usually admit. Of course, I'm different cause I've always had skillz :-P
Though I'll definitely grant that the sheer annoyance factor is huge. I couldn't supress the eternal feeling of "oh god, please don't do that."
I liked Bourne, but I agree on the camera work. I think the first was better though.
I'd have to say Napoleon is much funnier with a group of friends. I didn't like it at all the first time I saw it (way back at some indie theatre). Now I own it.
Garden State is awesome, in that it's small and very similar to real life and real relationships. It is a little over the top near the end with the boat and what not, but it definately makes me look forward to more movies from Zach Braff. Also, I'm a sucker for happy endings, I hate movies that have sad endings for no real reason, maybe only to please grumpy critics.
As for Bourne Supremecy, I hated the shaky cam almost as much as the plot...
From a director/writer's POV I can tell you ND's humor was made so you either love it or hate it. So you fall under one of the intended groups. And I think it's spectacular considering the premise was so simple and boring and it turned into something hillarious.
I'd have to agree with Anand on this one - Napoleon Dynamite was one of the worst "comedies" i've ever seen. I could feel my brain cells dying off while watching.
By the way, whatever happened to that Mac forum which was supposed to debut back in like, October?

Off topic, but does the new 533 Mhz bus for dothan and the addition of DDR 2 make the CPU significantly faster(10% or more)?Derek Wilson - Tuesday, February 15, 2005 - link

What? No details on your first Valentine's Day as a married person?Also, ND was great! Admittedly, it started out very slow, for me, but then it picked up steam quickly as I got into its very quirky form of humor.

And I think it's spectacular considering the premise was so simple and boring and it turned into something hillarious.Just matters on the sense of humor of the person.

Hey Anand,The problem with Napoleon Dynamite is that it is a sucky movie. If you're judging by plot and what not.
As I was watching I was just like "What the hell is going on? Is there a point?"
I suggest you watch it with 10 of your good friends who love to laugh, maybe then you might enjoy it a bit more.

Napoleon Dynamite has so many funny one liners. Man, I love that movie.
