For the life of me I don't know why you're not writing for The Daily Show. That is pure comic genius, Ryan. For the life of me I don’t know why you’re not writing for The Daily Show.

Meanwhile, we can start saving up for the video game version of There Will Be Blood, right? Roaming aggressively around the world, laying waste to natural resources, leaving destruction in our wake. Murder, deception, pillaging in pursuit of oil. It's called Grand Theft Autocrat.

Anyway, I still plan on getting a Blue Ray player eventually and I'm pretty excited about TWBB and Cloverfield coming out in the format (although I just purchased the double disc of the former recently). I don't look forward to having to replace some of my DVDs with newer DVDs, especially considering I still have some unconverted ones on VHS. But TWBB especially will be worth buying a second time around for a higher quality. That movie is certainly worthy of high def. And Assassination of Jesse James, as well (my #1 pick for 2007).

It is still playing at the cinemas, it is quite popular, so I guess I will order the normal DVD {along with Juno} from Amazon or something. For all you rich bitches, enjoy it on Blu-Ray. No how about sprucing up that No Country DVD!!! I, being the lazy freak I am, have not even got TWBB on normal DVD yet.

Humiliated. Mass honeybee suicide, like mortified Japanese salarymen. Total buzz kill. How about these "up-converting" DVD players? Really a visible difference, or is it just placebo video?

Really a visible difference, or is it just placebo video?
