You can transfer files from most DVR's to a computer, and I know you can record pay per view events on the comcast DVR. You could then use something like ConvertXToDVD or Nero to burn it to a DVD you could watch on a set top player.

Reminds me...

Caught a screening of JCVD over at the back-end theater yesterday.

Story and direction - good (he's gone the Rocky Balboa way with this one),
Acting - good from Van Damme, forgettable from others,
Action - disappointing choreography.

Overall Rating - * *

Had an Eastwood/ Siegel double feature last night. I watched:

Dirty Harry (1971) - 8.5/10.

Really great, gritty 70's cop flick. Awesome musical score. Eastwood kicks ass.

and.

Escape From Alcatraz (1979) - 8/10.

First time seeing this one. Great flick, highly reccomended.

Burnt Offerings – An Oliver Reed/Karen Black/Bette Davis horror movie from 1976. Some nice ideas, but ridiculously slow pacing actually made me fall asleep about three-quarters through it.

Zack and Miri Make a Porno:


Hahahaha.... except hardly. Maybe 3 laugh out loud or surprising moments, including the Justin Long appearance, but seriously? Kevin Smith may have just blown it.

5.5/10

Changeling (2008)

...and so Oscar season begins anew.

When this movie wasn't focused on Jolie's character, it was simply stunning. I don't think Jolie was really bad by any means, but the film had such an astounding supporting cast that she looked pretty dull by comparison.

The story itself isn't anything overly groundbreaking, but it lends itself well to some moments of wonderfully intense drama. This one will do well at the Oscars folks, I'd bet good money on it.

If you like Eastwood's recent style of filmmaking, this one wont disappoint. I wouldnt go out on a limb to recommend it, but it's certainly a well made, well acted and simply great movie.

HOWEVER - I dont think I've seen a movie so explicitly beg for an Oscar since Harvey Korman's speech in Blazing Saddles. I dont know if Eastwood or the screenwriter are to blame, but some dialogue near the end of the film was beyond pandering.
