What does it mean to be a patriot? Where are technology and the information age taking us? Why is nuclear proliferation so dangerous? Day 16: Game with the Best Cutscenes. Metal Gear Solid 4.

http://eknutson.blogspot.com/2011/04/30-days-of-gaming-day-26-best-voice.html

Tuesday, April 05, 2011. 30 Days of Gaming: Day 26: Best Voice Acting. Day 26: Best Voice Acting. I could have gone back to the well once more and written about Metal. Again, because the voice acting has really been pretty excellent throughout the series and Snake, of course, has one of the most recognizable voices in games. On Day 26 of 30, though, I'm gonna talk about a game that I haven't gotten to yet but that absolutely deserves to be mentioned something in this thing. The Dammit, They Tried Award:.

Wednesday, January 07, 2009. Best Movies of 2008. 1 The Dark Knight. A powerful character driven drama with excellent performances by Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Merryl Streep.

Incredibly prescient in the wake of the passage of Proposition 8 in California. Has another fantastic perform...

http://eknutson.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 22, 2011. The Social Network (* *1/2). Is a well-acted, well-written, interesting movie, but it's also a movie that just won the Golden Globe for Best Picture and seems poised to win the Oscar as well, and with that in mind I found the movie a bit. Esque descent into isolation as he makes the wrong choices about who to trust. Basically, I'm not sure I see the same complexities in the movie that others do. Is it an entertaining watch?
