Don’t forget that next Monday’s “Chuck” will be in 3D and you need the same glasses for it that you need for the “Monsters vs Aliens” trailer that’s airing during the super bowl. The glasses aren’t the traditional blue/red so I doubt you’ll be able to use an old pair you have lying around the house. To get your “InTrue 3d” glasses look for displays at:
- Kroger
- Ralphs
- Frys
- Safeway/Vons
- Supervalu
- Food Lion
- A&P
- Pathmark
- Coburns
- Fairway
- Fresh Brands
- Hy Vee
- Nash Finch
- Roundy’s
- Winn Dixie
- K-Mart
- Dollar General
- Hess (select stores)
- CVS (select stores)

For those of you who don’t know, Xbox 360 games have things called “achievements.” You accomplish certain task in the games and gamerpoints are added to your account. The points can only be used for bragging rights, but if you have a really small amount people do give you a hard time. So here are the five best games to quickly raise your points:
- Avatar The Last Air Bender – It will take you under 5 minutes to get 1,000 points by simply chaining attacks at the very opening of the game.
- Madden ’06 – In the course of about an hour you can get 1,000 points. Simply plug in a second controller use it to set yourself up to make the easy plays.
- “Lost: Via Domus” – the game has a lackluster storyline and several challenges are really agrivating. But with online walkthroughs you can beat it and easily get 800+ points in about three or four hours.
- “King Kong” – All you have to do is play through the game. You don’t even need to do anything crazy or hard. In fact the gameplay is barely a step above the most simplest of platformers.
- “Top Spin 2″ – This game only has 11 achievments and all are beyond simple to get.
Seems like there isn’t much going on and instead of doing several half-hearted post just for the sake of posting content I figured I’d do a link round-up.
- Emily Blunt has signed onto Gulliver’s Travels. This may effect her status in “Iron Man 2.”
- Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double was hurt filming the final Harry Potter book.
- Jeffrey Dean Morgan has signed on for “The Resident.”
- “Kung Fu Panda’s“John Stevenson has signed on to direct He-Man.
- “Clone Wars” the cartoon show is comming to TNT.
- Disney dropped out of the Narnia franchise and it seems FOX has stepped in.
- Ron Moore’s next project is a re-make of “The Thing.”
Somehow we missed the fact that “Comics Should Be Good” did a nice review of “DAD!:
Nobody ever feels sorry for themselves, even though everyone is sad at one point or another, and that helps invest us further in the story. We get to know Kevin very well, and it’s fascinating that King, in delving so deep into his father’s life, pulls a nice trick where we feel sympathetic for Kevin without liking him all that much. That’s a bold move, because it is his father, after all. That we can feel all the emotions for Kevin that we often feel about our own parents is the book’s true triumph.
My thoughts on last night’s “Lost.” ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
See the full size version at yahoo.
NBC has banned Peta’s “Veggie Love” commercial from the Super Bowl because it’s apparently too sexual.
What does ABC say will happen on tonight’s “Lost,” let’s check and see:
Desmond goes in search of a woman who could be the key to helping Faraday stop the island’s erratic movements through time.
Ok nothing spoiler-ish, but in the past Desmond centric episodes have always been the best so I’m super excited about tonight.
Less than a week before it was supposed to premier, Amy Poehler’s non-spin-off of “The Office” was finally named. It will be now known as “Public Service” and instead of airing after the Super Bowl it will debut in April after an episode of “The Office.” The show will center around Poehler as a a mid-level government official named Leslie Knope.
My problem with CBR’s list of the Top 25 fights has nothing to do with the match-ups they picked. What’s seriously uncool about the list is that they put it on 25 web pages for the purposes of increasing thier hits for advertising purposes. If that wasn’t annoying enough, there is no way to skip ahead or go directly to a specific ran. Shame on you CBR!
An 8 year exclusive deal with Spike TV has expired and as a result “Star Trek: TNG” is heading back into syndication. According to the press release from Paramount, the show is already sold as a Monday-Friday show in 83% of the country, including 29 of the top 30 markets.
These really bad really boring posters debuted yesterday on MySpace. Does anyone at there have any hope for the movie?
