Yet another cooling solution for your Wii

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Filed under: ,

For anyone who has neglected their introverted tendencies lately and stepped foot outside, you’d realize that much of the US is unbearably warm, and while we haven’t seen any outbreaks of overheating Wiis, this here fan is aiming to ensure it stays that way. Of course, it won’t go down as the first of its kind, but this USB-powered wind pusher provides two extra USB ports for the ones it covers, should match your Wii in color fairly well, and is reportedly ultra quiet when squashing heat. No word just yet on pricing or availability, but if you’ve got a wonderful invention known as “air conditioning,” you needn’t worry anyway.

Quint is shocked and awed by RUSH HOUR 3!!!

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here.

RUSH HOUR 3 is fucking retarded.

The majority of the jokes are so old and worn that you almost can’t believe they’re doing it. Did they really just do another version of Who’s On First? Did they really just do a fried chicken joke? Did Jackie Chan speak ebonics again? Hey look, that Frenchman hates America!

Yes. The movie is retarded. It is the textbook example of big dumb studio comedy.

But it is a RUSH HOUR movie.

If you liked any of the previous installments, you’ll like this one, too. I couldn’t help but laugh a couple times. Yeah, the jokes are almost all stale, but the film does have a sort of infectious energy, propelled by Chan and Tucker’s chemistry.
