I like The Rock and Con Air, they're both so gleefully over the top.  I haven't really liked anything else he's done, although I don't have the burning hatred for Transformers that everyone else seems to have (I never watched/gave a fuck about the cartoons, and some of the "giant robots beating the shit out of each other" scenes were entertaining).

I hated Nicholas Cage (worst actor ever) so much in The Rock. YOU A-HOLE.
And what's with this dude yelling out of nowhere in many of his movies?
Let's not forget the ending where Connery runs around that whole half-circle dome within 10 seconds :lol

I've decided I want to go single monitor. I currently have a 20" widescreen (Samsung 206BW) and 17" 4:3.

Trying to debate if I should go 22" or 24". Also wondering when Samsung's next "gen" is due out, cause I hate to "sidegrade" on size only, I want impossible brightness and contrast ratios, too.

How is Sunshine? I've got $31.62 on a Border's giftcard to blow, and I can use it on books, music and movies at Amazon. I'm tempted to spend it on Sunshine on Blu-ray...

other than size, I'd imagine my 206bw is more-or-less identical to your 245bw. and yes. when I got it it was like

OH MY GOD I THOUGHT I HAD A MONITOR BEFORE
BUT NOW I CAN SEE CLEARLY

he decided he was going to force himself to listen to the Celine Dion album until he could understand why people liked her, and in the process learned a lot about why people have taste, are elitist, think tragedy is superior to comedy, etc. not sure if he understood why people like Celine Dion, though

$450 for a monitor with a 5ms response time?  I wouldn't do it.

I just got Samsung's 19" 2ms monitor....looks pretty solid.
