Reviews: The Dark Knight & iPhoneOS 2.0

Posted by Mop On July - 20 - 2008

BatmanSo the other night I saw The Dark Knight at the midnight showing at my local theater, or as they should of called it, the Batman movie. In short, it was good, and I highly recommend you go see it. Two things that kind of annoyed me:

 • His Voice. When he is just Bruce, his voice is completely normal. However, when he is Batman, they made his voice INSANELY deep, and added SO much bass to it, to the point were it was hardly understandable. Just lowering it would of been sufficient.

 • Surprise ending? When - Spoilier: Click To Reveal - I seriously thought that was going to be the ending. It would of been a nice sad ending, but that was only halfway through the movie. After reading Wikipedia about some of the names I couldn’t remember, I noticed that - Spoilier: Click To Reveal - a detail that I missed in the theatre.

Other then those small issues I had with the movie, it was great! I still recommend you see it!

 

iPhoneOS 2.0 - 
Now that the new iPhone/iTouch operating system has been jailbroken, I’ve bought it and installed it, and taken a good look at it. Yes, bought - if you’re on an iPod Touch, it costs 9.95$ to upgrade to. For the original and 3G iphone, it is free. The App Store is incredible - there’s so much, and many of them are free, too! The infamous “Installer” (What jailbroken iPods used to get stuff) hasn’t been ported it, but there is Cydia, which is a GUI for apt-get. However, there aren’t many apps out yet for 2.0 - Of the GUI apps I had on my older system, NES.app is the only ported so far - keep in mind I’ve installed this a day after the Jailbreak for it was released, so many more are expected. From the App Store, I’ve tried out AOL Messenger, AOL Radio, Remote, Tap-Tap Revenge, and VNC. Here’s my opinions - 

 • AOL - Definitely much better then existing IM programs for the ipod. I couldn’t figure out how to log out, though. :( Recommended.
 •  AOL Radio - They have a WIDE variety of channels, at impressive audio quality, and it’s a fairly solid stream, too. Also recommended. 
 • Remote - This is a controller for iTunes (Control iTunes from your iPod). This is pretty cool too, and was extremely easy to set up.
 • Tap-Tap Revenge - This is like Guitar Hero, but you tab dots that come down lines… Kinda fun.
 • VNC -  This app is good too, but TouchPad is better. TouchPad is only for <= 1.1.4, though.

Screenshots! In order - Home Screen, Google Maps, AOL Radio, Remote, Remote, App Store, App Store, AOL Messenger. You can click them for a full-size image.

I just viewed Dark Night, I give a lots of credits to the Director and the Script writer specially the part of the Joker “How everyone sees live, what everyone expect from everyone and what the live game is”.

I don’t think The Dark Knight is even out yet in England, you always get everything first, from consoles, to films, to iPhones.

Mop Said,

Yeah but we invent all of those, LOL.

aldo Said,

Actually China gets a lot of the first things :-P not always but quite a bit, because that is where they are usually manufactured…

Simmo Said,

I thought Japan were the ones to get it first, due to their massive companies and economy.

Nevertheless, America still gets it before Britain. The only exception to the rule, is if it’s made in Britain itself.

Hey, does the “Wordpress” app from App Store work for you? Its not working for me on my site. and I just got my iATKOS Hackintosh, which is pretty good (decent speed, cause i’m using just about the same hardware as a real Mac, and I have to say I was suprised that PwnageTool and iTunes worked flawlessly on it).

Compra Cialis Said,
