Watched The Incredible Hulk last night. From the intro, I thought it was going to be amazing. I was really into it until the government tracked Banner down and then he Hulked Out™. It was really interesting and then it started to become a movie I wasn't too interested in seeing. That said, I think some aspects of it were better than Iron Man. And from someone who hates Liv Tyler (Have you seen the Lord of the Rings? She's terrible!), she was tolerable enough for a static character.
Also, the villain was tremendously lame and had no real motivation. I think a wise man once said "Don't make action happen -- let it happen." And then the villain that's hinted at near the end is probably going to be worse, especially if they keep the same actor.
That said, I thought PS3s could utilize BD-Live? How come I can't access any of the features then? Is it because the movie isn't officially "out" yet? It just shows a four-step process to set it up over and over (which is completely useless, by the way). Is BD-Live not allowed with a wireless connection? Only Ethernet? I Googled the problem, and I tried two suggestions and neither worked. I'm sure the extra material isn't something I'd want to see, but I'd still like access to it. That's a pretty fucking lame problem if you can't use BD-Live with a wireless connection.
I did upgrade to the 2.5 firmware last night though. I re-tested TVersity with it, and now fast forwarding/rewinding video is more usable. Still not perfectly smooth, but it's getting there. I don't think they added an option to skip a great deal ahead in a video like in my last blog post though. Skipping 10% ahead with the 360 is super useful. Also, I hate that I have to press cancel at the end of every video so it goes back to the video select menu. That should be automatic by now, dammit! Plus, Revision3 content still does not work.

I also can't stand Liv Tyler, I'm glad she didn't detract form the movie.
Most annoying Liv Tyler moment = DS commercial.
Something geeky I learned from my boss at work today: If you watch the alternate intro and pause at the avalanche near the very end, you can see a frozen Captain America and his shield.
