Games:

Fallout 3 - 80 hours of post-apocalyptic awesomeness. I had to turn the voice acting off, which actually made the game feel so much more like an old-school pc rpg.
Flower - Ahhhh, so very very pretty.
Flow - Ahhh, so very very pretty.... but I actually didn't like the controls... but I still really liked the game
PixelJunk Eden - Beautiful, simple and totally awesome. I wish there was a mode without the timer, though.
PixelJunk Monsters - Loved it. Just a simple, cute take on ye ol' Tower Defense.
Wipeout HD - Pretty colours, but sucky controls killed it for me.
Fable 2 - I tried to like it. Charming game with just too much going on.
Powder - my go-to bathtub rogue-like, made by a fellow Torontonian.
DoomRL -A quick little rogue-like with lots of fast-paced murder, which makes you wonder why other rogue-likes don't have more fast-paced murder.
Resistance 2 - yuk.
Prince of Persia (the new one) - Oh so beautiful... but just didn't feel right, yaknowwhati'msayin'?
Edge - a good game on the iPhone? Wha??
Braid - Yes I also liked it.
World of Goo - Yes, I liked this too, just like you did.
Left 4 Dead - Zombies murder is my #1 murder type.
Crayon Physics Deluxe - On pc, awesome. On iPhone, not so awesome.

As you can see, I just got a ps3 so the list is very ps3 heavy.

TV:

True Blood: Vampires make the best boyfriends because they love you so much, forever. Thumbs up.
Generation Kill: War never felt so stupid and un-warlike. Awesome show.
Veronica Mars Season 1: Whatever, this show RULES!!! Veronica is SO SMART!!
BSG Season 4: Saddest show on TV. Awesome.
24: Season whatever the hell it is now: I'm done with this damn show. It should have ended 3 seasons ago, at least.

Jon forced Veronica Mars on me... and now I'm totally hooked.

Film:

Max Payne: Why did I rent this again?
Tom and Jerry make a porno: Fuck, somehow I didn't notice this was made by Kevin Smith. After 10 min, I had that Kevin Smith feeling, so I paused the movie, checked IMDB, and then promptly turned this shit off. Comedy garbage.
My Bloody Valentine 3d: 3d was okay. Movie overall was not okay.
Nightmare on Elm Street: BLUE RAY! Pretty awesome, but also totally crazy cheesy... in an awesome way.
Close Encounters: BLUE RAY!!! Haven't seen this in years, and it blew my mind. Amazing film.

Films have been the pits lately. Nothing good in the theaters, and my rentals have let me down nearly every time.
