Movie Prediciton, By: Axizol
Alas, yet another play has become a movie. But the question is, how much will they destroy the storyline? We'll find out on the 21st of December.
The 34 year old play was first performed in 1973, and then went to Broadway in 1979, in Uris Theatre. It's about a man named Benjamin Barker who was wrongly convicted of a crime. The judge knew this when he convicted Benjamin, and Benjamin knew that the Judge knew the truth, for it was really the judge who commited the crime. The story starts when Benjamin returns from the Penal Colonies in Austrailia (for his punishment), where he inconspicuously meets a woman named Ms. Lovett. She knows who Benjamin really is, who falsely took on the name Sweeney Todd. Ms. Lovett's meat pies are the worst in London, and Sweeney learns that his wife poisoned herself after being raped by the judge. Can you say ultimate revenge?
The musical is set to release on December 21st. Save up, because this is sure to be a blast! I think that this movie will be a 5/5, as was the play when I saw it. Good luck to Johnny Depp (who is set to play Sweeney) and the rest of the cast!

Game Review, By Wzrdto25
The long awaited arrival of Halo 3 has finally come. The stores were rampaged with customers and the Xboxs were all switched on. It was beaten in no less than two short hours. Halo 3 itself had a very twisted plot; it was gripping, nonetheless short. Its cut scenes were probably the best parts and always have been if my memory serves me correctly. There are three difficulties that you can partake in: Normal, Hero and Legendary. Normal is mildly tough, however still presents a simple approach to beat the game. Hero turns the difficulty to a new extent and enhances the Normal level with difficult battles as well as an easy death to your player in several blows. Legendary contributes the most challenging struggle of all, one that is practically unconquerable. Halo’s game-designers also left you a surprise in each level, cheat codes in the form of skulls. These skulls offer secret codes, such as “heavy armor” or even “super jump.” The codes give you an advantage on Versus mode as well, so they are very well-recommended. The battles were brilliant, the vehicles were amazing, and the weapons were wonderful. The new online battle method is also simply remarkable; you can choose you're party and stay with them for any number of games you want, although you have to hold down the "up" button to talk. Altogether the game was enjoyable. The campaign mode did fall short but it was still a terrific game. Plus they left room for yet another addition to the series, and we all know what that means. So I really recommend playing this game if you own an Xbox and have an extra 2-3 hours open in your day. If you played the first two, like me, you will want to complete the story. And who knows you might see a new Halo game on the shelf soon =)

Halo 3 Unlockable: Special Ending
If you beat the game on Legendary mode, you will get a special, extended ending. Keep in mind that you only have to beat the final stage on Legendary mode, and not necessarily the rest of the game, in order to unlock this ending.

Review from Forums: I had seen Transformers on the big screen but recently there has been a bunch of talk about it coming to DVD. Naturally the graphics were superb and the action was great. The acting of the wonderful cast brought it the entire movie to its best. The drama was great, the action was intense and the dialogue was simply genius. If I had to rate this I would give it a perfect 5. Now I know you’re saying that you already saw this, but the DVD comes packed with tons of special features, you’ll even get to see the making of the movie. It’s a MUST see DVD. For all of you who did see it in theaters I recommend buying this DVD as well. If you have ever seen the T.V. when you were a kid, you will be surprised to see that this is anything like it. It was greatly improved and is great for all members fo the family. Check it out soon =)
Description of DVD: When Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) buys his first car, he has no clue its really an alien robot. The car seems to start showing its own mind while Sam is driving which leads to a struggle of confusion. Another group of cars that move and think on their own start to appear. Sam learns about the Autobots a group of alien robots who have come to the planet to save it from and evil force of the same species, the Decepticons. The story climaxes as Sam is entrusted with the “all-spark” and must find a way to keep it from falling in the hands of evil, with the help of a group of Autobots and good guys. What will happen?
