drilling rights on Indian lands in Oklahoma during the oil boom days. In Old California (Dir. William McGann 1942): Tom Craig (John Wayne) is a recent arrival ...
to leave her town and travel to Oklahoma after writing a controversial book. There she meets Jim Gardner, a prosperous oil operator, and Dan Somers, an earnest and sincere cowboy who is determined to protect the interests of the Indians who own the rich oil lands. There follows a fierce battle of wills between Gardner and Somers who soon become enemies as they compete for control of the oil-fields and also for the affections of Cathy. War of the Wildcats is a dynamic and absorbing drama, which features a typically strong and measured performance from The Duke.IN OLD CALIFORNIA: John Wayne stars as Tom Craig, a Boston pharmacist who journeys to the West in the days of the great Gold Rush. Soon after his arrival in Sacramento, Craig meets Britt Dawson, an unscrupulous politician, and his beautiful fiancee Lacey Miller, a dancehall singer. Tom manages to successfully organise the ranchers in a revolt against Dawson's between the townspeople (led by Tom) and Dawson's ruthless army of henchmen. A lesser known John Wayne gem, In Old California is a hugely enjoyable, action-packed film.

...Gears of war 2 is the long awaited sequel to the massive game which helped give the xbox 360 some valuable points in the console war. Years later the sequel does the same where everything has been improved
The story is very good by game standards as a professional writer has come on board just for its plot. It carries on from gears of war 1 but can be fully understood by an newbie as well. The gameplay has been polished in all areas and also features more enemies and variety than previous instalments
The graphics and sound are top notch with great score kicking in the minute you try and take on a massive enemy. The level design is varied and detailed and one can clearly see bit of wall and ceiling come off after a firefight leaving the steel railings
The single player has a good mix and never seems to dull and offers about 10-12 hours...

...This DVD is part of the History Channel World War II in Colour. It is the story (shown in colour) of how the people of the USA and Britain coped on the homefront, whilst the service personnel of both countries were away fighting against the Axis countries in what must have seemed like the four corners of the globe.
