I wasn't sure where to post this - it's a movie tie-in video game based on a comic book so it was kind of a toss up between this thread, Gaming, or Other Media.

In any case, click on the console in the righthand corner to play the Minutemen arcade game!

Oh yeah, I read about that. It's done in an '80s, 8-bit style, right?

Yep. It's awesomely addictive.

I love how you can beat up the mailbox and the fire hydrant but you can't jump and move forward at the same time.

Oooo, I just found out that Let the Right One In is playing in Memphis starting today. I did not expect the chance to see that, but may have to make a special trip now.

Let the Right One In is finally starting here this weekend as well. I think we're going this evening.

If you've ever enjoyed an embarassing movie for an embarassing reason, I'm going to recommend the Crushed Film Festival, over at Tomato Nation: [link] Sars and guests discuss movies they've watched (over and over again) for a certain someone.

And speaking of crushes, I'm currently watching The Year of Living Dangerously, and my god, Mel Gibson is still so beautiful. I mean, "still" in this movie, now that I'm way older than he is, not still today. Um. Of course the movie itself is also excellent.

I have watched many a horrid Clive Owen, Russell Crowe, Matthew MacFadyen, Ryan Gosling horror show, amongst many other wonderful men, and had to stop because it turns out there was a reason that none of these vehicles launched them into the limelight. Um, and then there was that Jeff Goldblum period, where I thought he was the sexiest thing to have ever existed (I blame "Mr. Frost" for that ... I wonder how that movie holds up now?).

I'm just shocked that anyone watched Boiler Room for Scott Caan. I mean, come for the Vin Diesel, stay for the Nicky Katt!
