Surrogates

Point I Fell Asleep: 0:45 out of 1:29 (50%)
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Primetime
IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0986263/

I liked the premise of this movie even though it was a bad movie. The movie was about people who could sit in these chairs and wear something that would allow them to control robotic clones of themselves [or whomever they want]. Therefore, instead of actually being a soldier, you'd be at home controlling the solider. And if the soldier dies, you get a new robotic "surrogate." Makes you think of all the endless possibilities. However, Bruce Willis and even Ving Rhames can no longer carry a movie. It was unfortunate how bad the movie turned out.

By the way, I just got a Yamaha YSP-4000 soundbar and a subwoofer. I got tired of the "thin" sound coming from my plasma TV's speakers. And the soundbar really does work unlike the "virtual surround sound" that TVs market. I'm just sad this movie was the first movie I used it on.
