Add ons considered, Is Its Your Future?

Advantages: The future? A means to the end??
Disadvantages: Adds on galore, usually well hidden

...of the fact you can barely afford it, even on the good months. Especially if you have poor credit and the lender already knows that judging by past payment behaviour, especially when they look over the last 12 months say, they probably sit on their leather chairs with big fat cigars in their mouths thinking of new strategies to get more business, with the result probably being, " just think, these people here with the odd missed payment and maybe one arrear, they're obviously having difficulties, temporarily we can consolidate their debts, cut their initial payment then rack up the rate, that way we will have helped at first, but then we ended raking in the interest and if we are lucky the late payment charges and more interest on that, bonus if we get the house!" Sounds harsh doesn't it and I probably shouldn't focus that spiel at just Future, but...

Back to the Future

Advantages: Excellent plot, Some laughs
Disadvantages: None

...Back to the future is one of the greatest films of all time and is definitely gets my vote for being THE best. It was made in 1985 but remains a timeless classic. Everyone should watch this movie at some time during their lives - it's that good! --- the BASICS --- Back to the future is a science fiction film about time travelling, starring Michael Fox and Christopher Lloyd as the 2 main lead characters and directed by Robert Zemeckis. The film has mixed in with it some funny bits and pieces too and it almost makes time travelling makes sense - it actually still doesn't (took me about 10 years to figure out why - read on!). --- the PLOT --- An eccentric scientist affectionately known as doc (Lloyd) has invented the time machine in ultimate style - a Delorean. His only friend, a high school student Marty (Fox), agrees to witnessing...

Back To The Future review

Advantages: Very fun and entertaining from start to finish
Disadvantages: None

...Back to the Future in a science fiction adventure made in 1985 directed by Robert Zemeckis (who also directed Forrest Gump) and stars Michael J. Fix and Christopher Lloyd. Marty McFly (Fox) is an ordinary 17yr old, except for one thing; he has a rather eccentric friend, Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown (Lloyd). One night, he invites him to the local mall in the middle of the night. Marty, being curious, agrees. When he arrives he is met by Doc, who shows him a modified DeLorean car which he says has been made into a time machine. It uses Plutonium to create a nuclear reaction that to generate the power needed to travel through time, and this will only happen once the car reaches 88 miles an hour. Doc shows Marty the time circuits and programs in 1955. Suddenly Libyan terrorists arrive, looking for their Plutonium. They kill Doc, so Marty jumps...

Back to the Future

Advantages: read opp
Disadvantages: read opp

...This review is on the 1985, Academy award winning, Back to the Future. Directed by Robert Zemeckis and produced by Steven Spielberg, the films star Michael J. Fox as teenager Marty McFly and Christopher Lloyd as scientist Dr. Emmett L. Brown. This was one of my all time childhood favourites, and to this day is still in my top ten of all time. It had everything one would want from an action film, action, drama, edge of the seat excitement and comedy. I think most people would agree that Back to the Future was a ground breaking Sci-fi film. Everything from the special effects to the storyline would be of much envy of the modern day films. Furthermore, I don't know about anyone else, but the first instalment was by far my favourite, because it was fresh and new, and we as viewers didn't no what to expect. Plot: Marty McFly is a young...

Beautiful Future - Primal Scream

Advantages: Great variety of musical styles and moods, quality songs
Disadvantages: Won't change the world

..., with varying success. The high points (for me) were Screamadelica (1990), which, with it's dance based slant on indie rock, was hailed as being 'of its time and timeless' and XTRMNTR (2000) which was darker, faster, harder rock with an electronic edge. The main low point for me was Give Out but Don't Give Up (1994) which just seemed to be a Rolling Stones tribute album. They have not been a consistent band in this sense. The line up has changed quite a bit over the years, but front man Bobbie Gillespie, with his distinctive, if somewhat weak, vocals, is a constant and guitarist Andrew Innes is from the very early days. Bassist Mani (ex Stone Roses) seems like a relatively recent joiner, but even he has been in the band for 12 years now (ah how the years accelerate?). Beautiful Future is the most melodic I remember Primal Scream being and it...

Review of Beautiful Future - Primal Scream

Back to the future

Advantages: great entertaining movie at a good pace
Disadvantages: none

...movies are nothing new, (and there will still be many more made in the future), but as there are many badly made movies of this type it is a pleasure to watch one of this quality and style? A lot of time travelling movies require you to concentrate fully to keep up with what is happening, which sometimes spoils the enjoyment of a movie, but this one is easy to watch, with no real concentration needed to keep up with what is happening due to someone accidentally treading on a butterfly years before, (cause and effect). The scenes as Marty has to try to convince his parents that they are in love with each other, whilst also trying to evade Biff, the rather large and very frightening bully, really does keep the movie flowing with very comical results. In all a good entertaining movie with action, comedy, thrills, spills and the usual...

Back to the future with you, marty!!

Advantages: Great story and acting, groundbreaking and memorable
Disadvantages: None really

...Back to the Future DVD Back To The Future is a film that sits in the hearts of many as a classic of the 1980s, one of those films that 'they just don't make any more'. It is a time-travelling adventure with some intense and panicky acting from Michael J Fox and some quirky mad scientist behaviour from Christopher Lloyd. It was groundbreaking in terms of its scientific ideas when it was released in 1985 to a very receptive audience, and made instant stars of its cast. It also features a glorious soundtrack including Huey Lewis' 'Power Of Love'. The Plot In 1988, teenager Marty McFly meets mad scientist Doc Brown, who claims to have created a machine capable of time travel - the DeLorean, equipped, with funky gadgets and whirring noises! Keen to avert a catastrophe, Marty uses the plutonium-charged car to go back in time - to 1955...

The Futures Bright, The Futures Jimmy's

Advantages: Massively melodic and hugely energetic and entertaining music.
Disadvantages: I fail to think of any.

...Jimmy Eat World formed way back in 1993, however it was not until some years later that they'd become the household name that they are today. They started out small, releasing their first album in 1994 through Wooden Blue Records; it was aptly titled simply 'Jimmy Eat World'. Doesn't appear as though they were awfully creative in their early days then but there you go, they were shortly after snapped up by Capitol and in 1996 released their first album through them, 'Static Prevails'. 'Futures' was their fifth studio album and was released in the year 2004, it has to date sold over 607 000 copies in the U.S. alone and has therefore secured 'Gold' status. 'Pain' was the single chosen to lead this album and also released were the tracks 'Work' and 'Futures'. 'Futures' is perhaps the weakest of those chosen to be singles and proved as...

Review of Futures [ECD] - Jimmy Eat World

The Wave Of The Future

Advantages: Brighter Screens, Lighter, better looks, smaller and imense battery life.
Disadvantages: Gba games stick out by 1cm... all i can think of.

...The Dslite is absolutly amazing portable gaming system... Like the Original Ds or DsPhat as some like to call it, has revolutionized the way we play games. Hardware- 10/10 The DsPhat has awsome hardware, but then the DsLite has gone one better, well actually a few more better. Upgrades from the DsPhat include; 4 brightness settings all of which are brighter than the original, Extended battery life which is 5-7 ours on highest setting and 15-19 hours on lowest setting. The system is around 20% lighter and 30% smaller. The stylus is much improved and easier to hold... i could go all day on improved features. Graphics- 6/10 This system has good graphics for a handheld... they are better than N64 but worse than Gamecube... There is no troubles here... I have too say this has good 2D engines. The only reason it is...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

It's the future, I've tasted it

Advantages: Excellent new interface, powerful graphics support
Disadvantages: Needs a powerful PC and compatibility for existing software

...video editing. All the key elements and techniques are there and very quickly you'll be able to put together a respectable looking film. Once used you'll quickly want to move to a more sophisticated package but as an introduction it is very good. Compatibility~ With XP having been around for so long the issue of compatibility has not been a problem for several years. However, Vista makes such fundamental changes to the way your PC operates that software suppliers will have to redesign new products and provide patches for their existing catalogue to ensure they all work with the new platform. Vista has been a long time coming so most big suppliers should have their patches ready now, or at least in the near future but if you rely on applications from smaller companies you may be left hanging while they get up to speed. A worry for me is...
