I know, you always here people say crap like this but this time it could be true. I don't care who you are and what your interests may be, there are some great movies coming in 2008. Look at this list.
54 reasons why 2008 will be great.
The comic fanboys (myself included) are going to have a fantastic year. Hell Boy 2, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, and The Incredible Hulk. You want action movies? How's about Indiana Jones, Jumper, Rambo, James Bond 22 or the new Mummy. Fantasy/Epic or Sci-Fi your thing? Fine then there's Harry Potter 6, Prince Caspian, Speed Racer, and Star Trek XI. And talk about great comedies; Harold and Kumar 2, Zack and Miri Make A Porn, Be Kind Rewind, Semi-Pro and Pineapple Express.
But in just 16 days the movie I'm most looking forward to is released, Cloverfield. I hope that it isn't all hype because this movie looks awesome and scary as hell. Bring it!

Fresh Hell
Below is a link to a photo that is disturbing AND hilarious. The picture is probably NSFW and you may go to hell after looking at it. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Oh, the RIAA. Always prepared to try and frighten you into thinking that doing anything with a Audio CD is illegal.
Did you here the latest news? A kitten dies every time you loan a CD to a friend without sending $5 to the RIAA.

Another pointless toy?
I've gotta have one of these. I mean $300? I'll find something to use it for.
Ring in the New Year, German Tuner Style
In case you weren't aware, the Germans are in the midst of a horsepower war. Mercedes, BMW and Audi have been one-upping each other for the last few years trying to take the title of Pferdestärken König.
Mercedes has technically taken the title with the 600hp+ twin turbo V12-engined monster, the SL65 AMG. But the mad Merc's power is really only good for shredding tires. Audi's RS4 and R8 feature one of the most amazing V8 engines to ever grace the planet but are still just a touch on the under-powered side at a paltry 420hp. BMW has the insane F1 derived 500hp+ V10s in the M5 and M6 making them probably the best all round sedan and GT cars (at least of the Germans).
The Germans are now where America was in the 60's, these ARE modern muscle cars. They all started out using technology to squeeze as much horsepower out of there existing "standard" engines. But now it's descended into a displacement war. It's really Mercedes that started the big bore battle with there huge 6.2litre V8s. Just like the American Muscle Car era there are some insane German "tuners" out there. The difference is that these guys charge 100K+ for their upgrades.
Look at this insane M5 upgrade. The first scary thing is the price, $130,000 plus the cost of an M5. The second scary thing is that it makes 730hp with the twin superchargers only running at 0.5bar of pressure. Can you imagine the kind of power you'd get out of twin turbos running modest boost like 5 psi? I'm glad the Germans are on our side now.

GENIUS!
Some people think that America is on the decline. They just haven't seen the kind of innovations that the average American is capable of. I give you Spider Mech!
