You know you do it. I do it too. We all do it. We all use our DVRs to skip commercials. For many users, that's the main reason they purchased a DVR in the first place. Unfortunately, this trend is effecting the advertiser's bottom line. They pay...

Based on a story by sci-fi novelist Philip K. Dick, this is an interesting premise on future sight and what could be achieved with it.

My wife even commented on how fake things looked. Aside from that though, this is a fun popcorn film.

V for Vendetta was different than I expected.
