I remember playing this fun Star Wars game for my Game Cube quite a bit. The various vehicle missions were a lot of fun and kind of a precursor to the vehicle missions in the LEGO Star Wars games.

I repurchased this game recently and replayed still having a lot of fun.

What an intriguing movie. There is a lot to be said for this movie and how intricately it was made. I enjoyed the movie a lot and thought that it was well done. The twist at the end was very good and one that I did not see coming.

A run of the mill low budget straight to DVD sequel. Considering the budget it isn't really bad but it's not good either. It borrows a lot of ideas from other films bit of a mix of Aliens, The Thing, Body snatchers. For a film that has a made for TV feel about it could have been a lot worse.

I love mine!
This is one of the best devices I've ever bought! It's fast, simple and efficient with everything being in the same place. Absolutely love it and don't know what I'd do without it now. The only downside is, you do still have to pay for a lot of things.

Predictable (0 more)
This was a chilling read. Kept the suspense all the way through. Throughout the novel, however, it became predictable as to what would happen. A lot of horror troupes found themselves repeated. There is a lot more to this book than what is presented on the surface. If you're a fan of gothic horror, give this one a shot.

"It was written so long ago and a lot of stuff became true – like cameras everywhere. He was basically describing the future and he didn’t even know it. It wakes you up because you’re doing a lot of the same things he’s describing in the book: the way you get up every day, you go to work. It’s really creepy."

"I got into this record, after we made I, Gemini. Her lyricism is incredible, she's so relatable. I like how she uses transport a lot in her lyrics, which we've also been doing recently. I guess it just happens when you spend a lot of time traveling. I love lines like "We ride the bus with our knees pulled in"!"

I've tried and worn a lot of smart watches. This is currently my everyday wearer. I like it a lot. Easy to disassemble for cleaning. Performs well above average. I do wish I could change the function of the ordinary physical button, as I often push it accidentally and activate Google Assistant. Other than that, zero complaints a year in.

It was OK

I wasn't all that impressed with this. Not all that much happened, and as with a lot of books with written letters in them-i feel I missed out on a lot of the story.

It didn't pull me in and make me excited for them to get together. My feelings were rather bleh.

I won't be continuing the series.
