We have just opened an account to be able to supply products from Power Inspired. I traded one of these units in recently and was intrigued by it and what effect it would have on my system at home, so I thought i'd try it.

I guess the fact we have opened an account with them gives you an idea what I thought. The difference was absolutely staggering. So much so I bought one for my own system at home. It seemed to make a huge difference to the soundstage and clarity of the system and really has to be heard to be believed.

There are a lot of "snake oil" comments about products such as this so im going to do the "Pepsi challenge" with these units, if anyone has any doubts, im happy to loan it out. Im confident it will improve most, if not all systems.

POWER INSPIRED AT THE MOVIE ROOMS

A bit late this week as Kenny (who usually does TMOTW for me) is on holiday. This week is Blade Runner 2049. This is a fantastic film, I do feel some people have gone a bit overboard with it's praise, but it rightfully sits alongside its sibling as a towering achievement visually.

Officer K (Ryan Gosling), a new blade runner for the Los Angeles Police Department, unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. His discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former blade runner who's been missing for 30 years.

The Movie of the Week this time around is the chic teen drama "Clueless", starring Alicia Silverstone. Adapted from a Jane Austen classic "Emma", this sharply satirical representation of late-nineteenth-century teenage romance was, and continues to be, a staple in any teenager's coming of age. Yes, the movie is aimed at teenagers, but like all good comedies, it will appeal to anyone who has a sense of humor and an ear for the ironic.

Shallow, rich and socially successful Cher (Alicia Silverstone) is at the top of her Beverly Hills high school's pecking scale. Seeing herself as a matchmaker, Cher first coaxes two teachers into dating each other. Emboldened by her success, she decides to give hopelessly klutzy new student Tai (Brittany Murphy) a makeover. When Tai becomes more popular than she is, Cher realizes that her disapproving ex-stepbrother (Paul Rudd) was right about how misguided she was -- and falls for him.

CLUELESS TRAILER

This time around, the Movie of the Week is Tommy Wiseau's "The Room". This bizarre, genre-confused film is regarded by many as 'the worst movie ever made', yet people love it. This film has developed a huge cult following over the past 15 years, so much so that a documentary has recently been made ("The Disaster Artist") by James Franco about the movie and the artist behind it. It has no redeeming value whatsoever - and that's exactly what is so charming and hypnotic about it.

Johnny (Tommy Wiseau) is a San Franciscan man who seems to have it all: a high-paying job as a banker, a bunch of friends--one of them being Mark (Greg Sestero), to whom he's the closest--and a beautiful fiancee named Lisa (Juliette Danielle), whom he's been engaged to for seven years. From the outset, Johnny's got everything going for him...that is, until he faces the worst form of betrayal ever, and from then on everything begins to crumble.

THE ROOM TRAILER

This week's 'Movie Of The Week' is Spike Lee's 'Do The Right Thing'. This pizza-parlour brawler is a clear metaphor for American class struggles and race relations in the 80's that are still very relevant today. Definitely worth a watch.

Salvatore "Sal" Fragione (Danny Aiello) is the Italian owner of a pizzeria in Brooklyn. A neighborhood local, Buggin' Out (Giancarlo Esposito), becomes upset when he sees that the pizzeria's Wall of Fame exhibits only Italian actors. Buggin' Out believes a pizzeria in a black neighborhood should showcase black actors, but Sal disagrees. The wall becomes a symbol of racism and hate to Buggin' Out and to other people in the neighborhood, and tensions rise.

DO THE RIGHT THING TRAILER

Only ten sleeps to go! This week's Movie of the Week is the legendary "Die Hard", arguably the best Christmas movie ever. Although fiercely debated whether it is actually a Christmas movie or not, we're classifying it as one because there is no criteria or committee that determines who gets on the list or not. 

New York City policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) is visiting his estranged wife (Bonnie Bedelia) and two daughters on Christmas Eve. He joins her at a holiday party in the headquarters of the Japanese-owned business she works for. But the festivities are interrupted by a group of terrorists who take over the exclusive high-rise, and everyone in it. Very soon McClane realizes that there's no one to save the hostages -- but him.

DIE HARD TRAILER

The Movie of the Week this time around is "Blackfish", a low-budget documentary that forced SeaWorld to clean up its act. Highlighting the injustice of these mammals in captivity, this film rocked the world's perception of dolphin and orca shows and sparked huge controversy.

The story of Tilikum, a captive killer whale that has taken the lives of several people, underscores problems within the sea-park industry, man's relationship to nature, and how little has been learned about these highly intelligent mammals.

PIEUTE CHARITY RAFFLE INFORMATION

Today's Movie of the Week is Diablo Cody's 2007 masterpiece, "Juno". Ellen Page's portrayal as Juno was voted on Empire's list of The 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time, and for good reason.  It's a beautifully humanising view of teenage mothers, and seeing this as a young person was incredibly valuable.

When precocious teen Juno MacGuff (Ellen Page) becomes pregnant, she chooses a failed rock star and his wife (Jennifer Garner) to adopt her unborn child. Complications occur when Mark, the prospective father, begins viewing Juno as more than just the mother of his future child, putting both his marriage and the adoption in jeopardy.

JUNO TRAILER

Taking a break from the more serious movies previously featured, The Movie Of The Week this time around is "Hot Fuzz", directed by Edgar Wright in 2007. Wright is one of my personal favourite directors, with his detailed cinematography and humorous spin on just about everything he creates. Out of his best known 'Cornetto Trilogy' with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the buddy-cop Hot Fuzz is certainly my top pick.

As a former London constable, Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) finds it difficult to adapt to his new assignment in the sleepy British village of Sandford. Not only does he miss the excitement of the big city, but he also has a well-meaning oaf (Nick Frost) for a partner. However, when a series of grisly accidents rocks Sandford, Nick smells something rotten in the idyllic village.
