In this charming, critically acclaimed tale of rumors and reputation, Olive (Emma Stone), an average high school student, sees her below-the-radar existence turn around overnight once she decides to use the school's gossip grapevine to advance her social standing. Now her classmates (Amanda Bynes, Aly Michalka) are turning against her and the school board is becoming concerned, including her favorite teacher (Thomas Haden Church) and the distracted guidance counselor (Lisa Kudrow). with the support of her hilariously idiosyncratic parents (Stanley Tucci, Patricia Clarkson) and a little help from a long-time crush (Penn Badgley), Olive attempts to take on her notorious new identity and crush the rumor mill once and for all. Directed by Will Gluck.

Awesome fun for teens and adults

A teen movie with the heart of a John Hughes flick and the strong stage presence of a wonderful up and coming young actress. Emma Stone captures the frustrations of youth as a lie goes malignant through the gossip channels of high school. With references to Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, Can't Buy Me Love and Say Anything, how can you say no to watching this movie? It's a must see.
What's great about it: Great story, fun DVD menus
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Force Unleashed-Give me KOTOR or give me death
on September 18, 2008
Posted by: mayowan
from Seattle, WA
Being a convention attending Star Wars fan, I consider myself to be pretty devoted. Like so many others, I have been awaiting the release of this game since it was announced. I have to say that I am sorely disappointed with the Force Unleashed. Despite stellar graphics and an overall great concept, this Star Wars game plays just about the same as the original Xbox Episode III game. While the storyline is intriguing, the game play doesn't hold up to any next gen hits. The combination button moves translate into nothing more than mindless button mashing, the camera angles are often frustrating, and the environments are slightly more interactive than the Wii Baseball field. The worst parts are the boss battles which remind me of early edition Mega Man death matches. At least with Mega Man, we were always assured there would be a new and improved sequel. (I'm talking about original Nintendo in case you’re wondering) Trust me when I say RENTAL!!!
P.S. Can people please stop rating games before they even play them!?!
What's great about it: Finally Star Wars for Xbox 360. Cool story!
What's not so great: Incessant button mashing, too short, nothing new!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Obviously anyone who loves Harry Potter must purchase this movie. The additional Death-eater mask in this special edition is a nice touch for the extreme fan.
What's great about it: Collectors mask
What's not so great: No display stand for mask
I would recommend this to a friend!
