People Don't Want A Hero, They Want To Eat Cheeseburgers, Play The Lotto And Watch Television

by Rainier on March 13, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

We saw The Adjustment Bureau yesterday, and it was quite good. The chemistry between the two main actors (Matt Damon and Emily Blunt) was amazing. Comparisons to Inception are warranted, but only in terms of the type of movie, because Christopher Nolan's masterpiece is in a totally different league. Today we're heading out to the theater again to see Battle: L.A., which, according to box office predictions, is the #1 movie this weekend. Let's hope it lives up to expectations.

In case you had not yet noticed, we've been giving away download codes (PSN, XBLA, Steam) on our Twitter feed for various games, and I wanted to send congrats to the Beyond Good & Evil HD winners, especially this guy for being creative.
