Winter Sports: The Ultimate Challenge Wii Giveaway
We watched the Packers game, so we 
saw the four-below temperatures. We’ve felt the cold fronts move in, so we’ve seen winter in all its glory. But somehow, winter just seems a bit more “complete” when there’s a dude on the luge, a guy jumping in skis, a team pushing a bobsled and some ladies curling.

his own parade and his own postage stamp, but before Mickey ever set animated foot on Walt Disney’s paper, there was a little guy by the name of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. This floppy-eared star appeared in Walt Disney’s first cartoon series, called The Adventures of Oswald The Lucky Rabbit. Oswald was both fun and mischievous in numerous shorts between 1927 and….
for himself with Mickey Mouse and Disneyland, but two of the most beloved Disney characters are actually sourpusses: Grumpy and Donald Duck. Even though both characters are grouches, Donald Duck easily steals the cranky show, and in fact even has a Walt Disney World attraction based on his attitude (Mickey’s PhilharMagic). Donald Duck’s animated history goes back well….
and ladies in bikinis, few things had the same impact on Hawaii tourism as Hawaii Five-0. A classic cop show, and one that’s far more entertaining than anything COPS and its real-world format can serve up, Hawaii Five-0 captured mainland Americans’ imagination both for the tropical islands of Hawaii and the world of elite cops. In addition, the show coined one of the most recognizable phrases….
recent return to football for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, a former NCAA football star who ventured into the WWE and professional wrestling before finding a more-lucrative deal making movies. Unlike Gridiron Gang, which was a relatively serious film, The Game Plan asks viewers if they can smell what sort of comic mischief The Rock is cooking…and believe me, the comic mischief in this one….

have a fascination with physics. That, and off-road racing games. The latest such physics-intense off-road game comes to us courtesy of THQ: MX vs. ATV Untamed. The MX series got its start on PC with a simple but addictive stuntbike demo. Since those early days, the series has added ATVs, monster trucks, the new ORV Sport vehicles and, of course, a whole mess of off-road tracks just waiting to….
your GUN, or your Call of Juarez. But without classic Western TV shows, those games and the entire Western genre would be nonexistent. One of the classic such shows, Gunsmoke, enjoyed both a great run while it was on the air, but a following that’s stayed strong throughout the years. Where James Bond has his gadgets, Matt Dillon has his trusty sidearms. Where Bond stars….
have seen a steady stream of penguin-themed movies and features. Tiring of penguins, producers have begun changing their focus to the Arctic Circle and its related wildlife. Polar bears, walruses, seals…if it lives in the Arctic, it’s probably cute, cuddly and primed for a feature. And Animal Planet’s latest DVD follows that formula perfectly. Growing Up Arctic is the….
the arcades being dead, at least in North America. Try telling that to New Line Cinema, though. The company has caused quite a stir with its documentary of one man’s quest to set the world’s highest score on Donkey Kong (yes, the original Donkey Kong arcade game). If the spirit of the arcades were truly dead, this documentary wouldn’t have drummed up nearly this much interest….
