I have yet to see a Hollywood-type movie on those real dome IMAX screens they used for The Science Place when we were kids. No matter how many times I leaned back and watched the sped up helicopter shots of Dallas on that thing, I thought it was so cool.

Unfortunately, when I went to The Dark Knight, I was expecting that, but what I got was a crappy vertical IMAX that I later learned wasn't even as big as non-dome IMAX screens were supposed to be. I was really disappointed. Later, I'd see Tron: Legacy in IMAX 3D at The Parks Mall in Arlington. Now that was impressive, though still not the dome shape I really want to see a movie in at some point.

Of course, gaming on those things would be one hell of a trip! I think my older brother has said some staffers actually have gamed on the giant screen, but definitely don't quote me on that, he might have simply been saying how cool it would be. Oh, but one more thing about these screens, one of the items that didn't upload properly for me to past in my blog that got deleted:

I got to watch Avatar on that big screen of Jerry Jones'.

I dug the ambient relaxation of the first song, then BAM! Hilariously abrupt transition to what looks like Austin Powers' acid trip; with a pretty damn catchy song to boot.

Great blog for a game I LOATHED when I rented as a kid. But I have always wished I were or became more into JRPGs, so I could appreciate what seems like a funny and charming story by all accounts.

I like that you tied it into Super Mario RPG, which I mostly watched a friend play in middle school, but got a kick out of when I actually played it a couple times.I must admit, I was a graphics whore as well at the time, still do like having the most updated looks when possible, and so while I didn't really notice that Earthbound had simple graphics (not why I disliked it, it was because I didn't like the gameplay and couldn't figure out where to go or what was happening), I did notice how gorgeous Super Mario RPG was.

Still, I'd like to at least see the story of Ness and his friends play out. Excellent stand-in for your Final Fantasy Quest series.

That is one evenly sliced pie at the moment. I'm assuming I was the fourth vote. lol

My thoughts exactly.

How'd I forget the rainbow ones?! Always grabbed those from the C-Store in college.

At one point, I thought Roger Ebert was trying to surf. Maybe the Ninja Turtles got to him.

I wonder if my older brother has heard of this, he really likes air combat/plane video games.

Some of the text is hanging out to the right, I think due to the image sizes. I was still able to get the gist, just letting you know.

Black licorice really does turn me off. Good thing there's cherry twizzlers, pull-n'-peel cherry twizzlers, and red vines.

Trick or treating in a game sounds awesome. My ex gf would love this probably, her favorite holiday is Halloween, and that pumpkin sure does go from cute to badass fast! I wish that's how costumes actually worked, like they do in games and TV shows. lol

If she gets that for you, just buy a pink pimp outfit, with furry hat and shiny cane. Masculinity re-acquired! lol

I may wait to see if the N64 works, as I think I'll nod myself off to sleep watching TV before we go check out the car in the morning. I think my most memorable is Gamecube, as it was the first console I paid for myself.

I need to kock on wood more often, it might do me some good. lol Cheers!

Well, technically my dad's car issues, but my money being loaned to get him a new one, my car being borrowed at least tonight, while I look for more work and pay off student debt. lol I'll be very relieved if we go there tomorrow and the transmission on the one he's looking at checks out, though. Much less worry for all of us, especially him, for sure! It'd be great news.

Thanks for the comment! Hope all cars you're currently driving show you reliability.
