Re: Merry Christmas
Christmas got started off right in my neck of the woods.
We had a white elephant Christmas with my extended family...pretty fun stuff if you've never done it.
Made it home from there with $50 and $40 gift certificate, then took 1st in the family poker game. I won $80 there....not a bad start for not having a job.
Anyways, guys....I probably won't be back on CSS until the new year.
I'm going to be with my fam, you know how that goes.....
HOWEVER....got started playing COD4 on 360. Thinkin' I'ma have to buy it for PC now.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Movie Review
[skip 1st paragraph if you want to go straight to review]
I saw (and completely agreed with) the Grown Ups review, so I felt that I should give a movie review for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. In case you've never heard of it, it's because the movie is foreign and only played in select US theaters. Fortunately for you, it has been released in the US and is available at most Redbox locations!
Ok, on with the review. And no, I won't say any spoilers:
Overall, excellent movie. It's rating is 'R' for a reason, though. "Grisly images, rape scenes" and tons of other elements make this a movie for the more mature audiences. It's disturbing at parts (the rape scenes are kind of sadistic..) and there's frequent boobies (not like Gamer, though. haha....)
Great story, brilliant actors, great scenery (filmed in the Swedish countryside, I believe). You can either turn on english subtitles, or switch the language to english (I would recommend the subtitles.. the language switch is awkward to look at. kind of like the cliche japanese-english converted movies). The characters are believable, and above all, the movie is intellectual. I guarantee you will be thinking the entire time.
For reasons listed in the second paragraph, I will restate that this movie is not for all people. If your stomach can't take disturbing content, don't watch it. But in the end, it's worth it because the movie is great. It's based off of a book (the author of which died before publication, I think) and the movie is lengthy (approx. 2hrs30mins).
Overall Rating: 5stars/5
