Great Flash Movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's about time Flash got his own movie. I don't know much about Flash's backstory but I do like what they did in this film. It is well worth the price of admission to watch this movie.

Court of Owls and assasin Robin!
on July 8, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you've been keeping up with the comics then you know how cool the Court of Owls is. Well, maybe cool isn't the proper term for it. This video doesn't exactly do the Court its full justice but it does a pretty good job within the confines of the film. I especially like the whole bad kid robin thing. The movie is left wide open for a part three to this series. Bring it on!

And the Gauge on this is what?
on April 24, 2015
Posted by: ITJim
from Maine
Verified Purchase:Yes
Monster has a great marketing team. What they make up for in amazing verbiage and visuals they lack in substantial specifications. I picked up this spool simply because the sales person offered to discount it with the purchase of my rather expensive home theater system that I was buying. I later returned the wire after I discovered that I couldn't find any information about what gauge this wire was. I wanted 12 gauge wire for my setup and Monster, or anyone else who has written a review on this stuff, could come up with a proper gauge on this wire. So I returned this stuff to Best Buy and picked up twice the length 12/2 in wall speaker wire at half the cost. If Monster cannot simply be honest with me about why their speaker wire really is better than everyone else's without resorting to marketing voodoo then they don't deserve my business. I'm giving this three stars because I'm sure their copper will transmit a signal like everyone else's copper will but until their superiority can be proven in a real independent test against equally qualified speaker wire then I simply don't want it in my home.

Great Second Film
on December 7, 2014
Posted by: ITJim
from Maine
Verified Purchase:Yes
The first Hobbit film was ok but was too disjointed to flow well. The second film doesn't suffer so much from that. Our characters have direction that keep them moving forward. The extended scenes are nice additions and add a few sub plots that really have nothing to do with the overall narrative but do fill in a gaps of the story. Regardless they are nice to have. The dragon is fierce and his scenes are absolutely breath taking. It may all be CGI but you can tell a lot of care and attention was put into those CGI moments. Pick up this film. You won't be disappointed.

Great Vacumme
on December 6, 2014
Posted by: ITJim
from Maine
Verified Purchase:Yes
When I went to Best Buy I drove the sales person nuts by testing out all of the Sharks and Dysons. The Dysons were nice but seemed to be priced to be part of the "cool" club. Also the silly sphere wheel of their seemed more like an over engineered gimmick than a feature that was going to change my house cleaning life. Additionally, the Shark was lighter, easier to move around, and seemed to have the same cleaning power. I brought it home, cleaned the house, and haven't looked back. This is a great product and I would recommend it to others.

It's the Hulk! Does he really need a review? He's big, cumbersome, and kicks a lot of butt.

Very good gaming console with some quarks
on November 13, 2014
Posted by: ITJim
from Maine
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a very good game console. Nintendo does know how to build a solid package. The games are fun and the backwards compatibility with older games is second to none. PS4 and Xbox cannot hold a candle to the Wii U in this respect. There are issue though. The whole Mii solution thingy is a bit much. I turn on my console and my TV is inundated with Miis from god only knows where. What the am I supposed to do with these things?! Who cares? The tablet is pretty cool. I can play either on my TV or on the tablet. The only thing I don't like about the tablet is that the screen is always on even when you are using the TV. What a waste of battery life for games that don't use the tablet's features. Other than that the system is very solid and is a lot of fun.

This is a really fun game. If you are not familiar with Smash Bros then it will take some time to figure out all of the controls an the various fighting styles. However, once you've got the hang of this game it's fun.

Great controller

Verified Purchase:Yes
What can I say. I haven't seen a third party controller on the market. So all I can is that this is the best other controller that you can get for the Wii U. I do think it is pretty stupid that you have to have the tablet active to use any additional controller. For some reason it is a base station for the controllers. Go figure.

Players, start your engines. It's time to once again get on the racing circuit and compete against characters from the Mushroom Kingdom that you know and love. For the first time on the Nintendo Wii U console, you get to experience the racing action that has been a fan favorite for years, with a few added features to keep things interesting. So buckle up, push the pedal to the floor and get ready to turn this classic racing experience upside down.With new racing circuits, new gameplay features and a stunning new look, Mario Kart 8 certainly lives up to the legacy. The new anti-gravity feature will have you suddenly finding yourself racing on walls in a haunted mansion or upside-down over Princess Peach's castle ~ not to worry, the wheels on your kart will automatically rotate and shift into antigravity gear for an awesome racing element that allows mind-blowing new circuit designs. The previous games in the Mario Kart franchise introduced some amazing features, so they're back for more in Mario Kart 8. You can still see who's got what it takes in 12-player online competitive play. Hang gliders and motorbikes are back, as well as underwater racing and mid-air tricks, while Waluigi and Toadette rejoin the cast of characters. As the icing on the cake, the crisp, high-definition graphics and 60-frames-per-second frame rate of your Nintendo Wii U ensure a visually stunning and vibrant gameplay experience that you won't soon forget.

Awesome Game

This is an awesome game. It is not Mario Cart for the DS. It is so much batter. The only thing I don't like is that I have to use the Wii tablet controller. There just isn't any way around it. What a waste of electricity if I'm using the TV for play. However, if I don't want to use the TV then the tablet is pretty cool.

Game on the go with the Corsair Gaming K65 gaming keyboard. This keyboard lacks a number pad, making it more compact and leaving more room for your mouse to move. Its detachable, soft-touch wrist wrest limits wrist fatigue. The Corsair Gaming K65gaming keyboard has Cherry MX Red key switches for added responsiveness along with customizable backlighting and anti-ghosting keys.
What cherry switches come with it?
