    Wonderful character development!

    Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

    I think The Screen Savers was the best of the many ground breaking TV shows from TechTV, with personalities like Martin Sargent and Leo Laporte. I was absolutely shocked when it went off the air. Martin Sargent was hilarious. He was also a great interviewer, which is rare. Not only that, but Comcast also ruined the TechTV web site, when they became G4 TechTV. I remember finding so many great tips an articles on the original web site. I guess it took a lot of Comcast money to destroy a whole emerging market of tech TV shows. I wonder what they'll ruin next. I really miss this show. I proudly wear my Screen Savers t-shirt.

    This was one of my all-time favorite TV shows- it had great hosts, it was interesting, informative, funny, and wonderful to watch. The hosts were always energetic and helpful. The show included tech news covering subjects such as new viruses to watch out for, new innovations in the tech world, and all kinds of interesting issues concerning computers. Other segments of the show included basic quick tips from Leo explaining to the computer newbies how to do things like change your desktop wallpaper, or cut and paste text, a pricewatch segment where the hosts would look over the Sunday sales fliers and tell you if the deals were any good or not, a call-in segment where viewers could ask the hosts how to do something computer-related, or maybe help finding a helpful or entertaining website. There were also guests from time to time that were experts in particular fields, such as photoshop, viruses, hacking, computer design, etc. There was also Yoshi, the "Mad Modder" who would build wild designs for computer cases, or make unique and fun modifications to existing computer products, such as adding a fan and vent to a mouse to keep your palm cool. This was a wonderful show, and it is sorely missed by tons of fans- Unfortunately, when G4 merged with TechTV, the new people in charge decided it did not fit the format of the new company, and the show was canceled....

    This show started as a tech show. A very boring tech show, I might add. Then they screwed around with everything and monkeyed it all up. They eventually ended up with Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht as hosts. It was then that this show became absolutely brilliant and hilarious. I watched it religiously everyday. Until it happened.One day without warning G4Tech TV fired roughly 60% of it's entire staff. Alex Albrecht, Yoshi, Dan, and television's Martin Sargent were among those let go in G4's most controversial move since acquiring Tech TV. The Screen Savers was butchered and hacked beyond all recognition. The audience was removed, the hosts were constantly changing. The skits were demeaning and the topics were lame and pointless. The added musical guests for no reason at all. These poor guys were playing to an empty room.The show finally changed completely and became Attack of the Show. Which still sucks.If you want to catch Alex Albrecht and Kevin Rose, they do a weekly pod-cast/video-cast called Diggnation at Diggnation.com (see Digg.com).Kevin has another pod-cast/video-cast called Systm. (Systm.com), the Broken (the broken.com). And Alex is starting into movies and television.

    Now that it's gone and tech TV slowly becomes MTV-ized, I miss this show more and more.Tech TV is way, way dead.I don't know what the hell G4 is or why we needed that merger in the first place, but it's a horrible move.Now they have this new show on called "Attack of the Show" which is a bad imitation. It's a show that is advertised as a show that gives you the lowdon on everything going on internet-wise. It is very, very lame.Hopefully another tech channel will rise and this one will burn in hell.R.I.P. ScreenSavers.R.I.P. Tech TV
