Summer Movies!

Lady — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:54:00 GMT

So, what have you seen, what would you like to see, what would you like to see go up in flames?

I've got a pretty short list and have managed most of it.

-Up
-Star Trek
-Wolverine

Have seen the first two. Loved them both.

What are you listening to?

Lady — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 20:45:26 GMT

Every forum needs one.

Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

I'm not really into Pokemon...

The thread of awesome music videos!

FruityPastryGod — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 08:43:00 GMT

Tais-toi mon coeur dir. St�phane Berla Beautiful and odd. I hear he'll be working on a movie that will look like this video that'll be directed by Luc Besson (Fifth Element, Leon/The Professional). I'll be keeping an eye out for that one! I'll post more after someone else posts a video. :) I'd like to keep it one video per post. ETA: Yes! After a bit of digging I found an English translation - it's not perfect, but it's much better than what I'd be able to do. :)

Favourites of current television

Monkeydog — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 05:44:48 GMT

What's your favourite shows of today(So no Firefly or Arrested Development)? Maybe start some discussion on them?(that isn't Heroes). I just got done watching a sexcellent episode of The Office, I was laughing so hard my parents got worried. I loves me some Office. I'm also a fan of My Name is Earl, which isn't good all the time, but when it's good, damn is it good. Recently I've fallen in LOVE with It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. That show is just so great. Missed tonight's episode ...

Tank Girl (movie)

Otaku Son — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 23:51:06 GMT

Hey, to everyone who's seen the Tank Girl movie. I'm thinking to do something for my own videos of taking comic panels and using them for segments, sort of like in the Tank Girl movie.

So, who saw the movie, and what did you think of their use of panel segments? Do you think it would be a good idea for a fan video of some other material (meaning non-Tank Girl).

Zune.

MissFritz — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 19:42:07 GMT

Just wondering how many people on the forum have a Zune instead of the ipod..?

Yakuza 2

Otaku Son — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 01:17:29 GMT

So, this game should have been out a week ago, but it just came out this past Tuesday. I picked it up yesterday. Kazuma is still pretty bad-ass, and the awesome combos don't need training to get. It feels a little bit slower, though; or, maybe I just over-hyped it for myself and ended up shooting myself in the foot. Still an awesome game, though. Still full of enough creative spark to make me want to work some more on my Yakuza Gaijin screenplay. Anyone who hasn't played the ...

And Another Thing...

Original Sin — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 05:32:36 GMT

...is the title of the [fanfare] sixth novel in the incredibly inaccurately-named Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy. The author will be Eoin Colfer, who is best known for writing the Artemis Fowl books. I listened to the audio version of the first book in that series, but sort of lost interest/gave up after a while. I have mixed feelings. I'm glad we will no longer have to have the series end on the incredibly bleak ending of Mostly Harmless, but I'm not sure about Colfer. If it were up ...

Groundhog Day

Aris — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 20:47:55 GMT

So I was perusing the interwebs when I got the itching feeling to download a movie I normally wouldn't watch, which lead me to look into Groundhog Day (which has a friggin' 8.4 on IMDb and is in their top 250). I was honestly expecting a mediocre comedy with lost potential (and I tend to not enjoy Bill Murray). Lordy was I awesomely surprised. The movie, while trying to be a comedy, fails miserably at it and becomes more of an offbeat comedy with deep undertones. I mean, the part where Spoiler: He ...

Book Club: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

If you don't physically own this book, never fear, you can download it free from here (Thank you Tender) SPOILER ALERT! Warning, there will be spoilers for this book in this thread. Since all our discussion will most likely deal with the plot and themes of the book, I'm putting a disclaimer here instead of having everyone put things in spoiler tags. Alright, welcome to the first meeting of the book club : D We're going to do a chapter a day format for the book "Dr. Jekyll and ...

Sesame Street

Monkeydog — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 08:22:15 GMT

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArPWoqdB42Q I love Muppets. Is it just me or is this show now hilarious now that I'm older? Or are the writers of Sesame Street making it so adults have something to watch too? Jonah Hill, Feist, Jack Black, a CAKE hitting on Jessica Alba, Jack Black, Neil Patrick Harris, Will Arnett being a magician(if there is not a Final Countdown Joke, I will be so sad), and a 30 Rock spoof? I don't think children care about any of those things. But man ...

I AM IRON MAN

Java/Schtolty — Fri, 02 May 2008 05:30:20 GMT

So thanks to some movie theaters deciding that May 2nd should start four hours early, I went with a group of about 14 people to see Iron Man, and it was excellent. They spent a good deal of time showing the process of Tony Stark building both the suit he used to escape his captors and the final version of the suit, which I greatly enjoyed. There were a few unbelievable parts (other than the whole superhero bit of course), but it's nothing really noticeable enough to detract from the movie. There ...

So. I got about $250 in Christmas money this year, and I'm thinking about spending it on a Wii. My brother knows someone with a Wii, but he's only played Wii Sports.

Recommend some games. My Wii ownership may depend on your suggestions.

I just watched "No Country for Old Men"

Movies!

Kadoshi — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 01:09:41 GMT

I don't know if it is a good idea to make a whole thread for one movie, but I didn't see any thread for movies so I guess I will just make one. Well, I just finished watching Hot Fuzz, and I love it! It was very entertaining, and clever for a comedy movie. I was very pleased with it, and my sister and I fangirled about it for a very long time.( We do that for every movie and book we like) It is definatly worth to watch. So, tell us what movies you like, or ones you have recently ...

Yes, I'm making yet another topic... Anyways, I found this and decided to get the album. You might enjoy. Edit - There's also the 2nd and 3rd ones as well in case you are too lazy to look for them and are yet interested in hearing them.

Dr Faustus

Aris — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 17:55:14 GMT

So I finished reading Dr Faustus on the bus today. I was expecting a deeply introverted play that touched upon Faustus' pride, his vanity, etc. The entire play doesn't really focus much on anything, instead we just zip by the surface of what could be interesting scenarios. In one of the acts, Faustus is showing off his powers to people for money, and the hosts are just static. They all praise his wit (which means intelligence, not snarkiness) in the black arts. Even the Holy Emperor of Rome ...

This is the first time I've ever regretted buying a book. I'm actually returning it, which is apparently fine by the store since I just bought it a few days ago and it's still in perfect condition. Seems to me that everyone loves it (which is why I got it in the first place), so now I'm left wondering why. And you might be curious about why I hate it. I guess it's alright just as a story. But people talk about it like it's really awesome and life-changing, and like it makes you think. I ...

For such a mediocre strip, there's a lot of parody for this comic, more then any other one I can think of. Maybe Davis figured better then he knew.

Epic Games.

Dread Pirate Halpo — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 01:27:46 GMT

This thread is to discuss games that you think, for some reason or other, are epic. I'll start it off. Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate 2, and the expansions(PC games, not the PS2 pieces of crap): These games are cRPGs that have essentially defined most modern RPGs. I've yet to hear a discussion on any modern RPG where it wasn't compared to the Baldur's Gate games. And usually the comparison is something like this, "Well, it is a good game, but it isn't quite like Baldur's Gate (2)." ...

Questions about the ending of Ender's Game

Obsidian_Stray — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 22:40:40 GMT

Dunno if anyone else has read it, but as awesome as it is, I figure at least a couple other people should have. The ending, to me, seems to contain two gaping plot holes. Normally I just accept plot holes and get on with it, but this book seems too awesome to end with "And then stuff happened that didn't make sense. The end." 1. To make other colonies, the buggers would sent out scouting parties, then return with a queen and some followers to secure the planet. They had multiple ...

Grim Fandango

Dread Pirate Halpo — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 16:00:29 GMT

I've seen many people make reference to this game. I understand basic references to it, as I know the basic premise behind it, but I have never played the game itself. I can never seem to get my hands on a copy of the game, for various reasons, and this is a sad thing.

Pokemon trading thread

In the interest of organizing trade requests, I decided to start this thread. If somebody helps you out with a request, be sure to edit your request post to let others know that it's been taken care of. To start us off, - I'd like an Aipom (preferably to keep so I can evolve, but if someone has both, then trade/trade backs will work fine) - I need the Togepi line. If possible, I'd like a Togetic so that I can spend the least amount of time getting the whole line, but I'd be happy to ...

Much as the DD comics may not have been the best in the world, Quilt has been the one to always get a laugh out of me, nearly all the time.

Rebellion: A Tragedy In Steel

Capn_ARG — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 02:32:22 GMT

That's right.... Shakespeare's Macbeth, as a heavy metal album. Listening to the first few songs, I have to say................. I hope you like metal, Lady, cuz if you do, this album is right up your alley. If any of you are curious, try the second song in the album: Click here for it. I very recommend a listen to those interested. The further songs in the album, that I've listened to thus far, are very, very good.

I think I need some serious help

Wheel of Time and Sword of Truth

Magello — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 23:15:16 GMT

So, they both kinda ended. One because James Oliver Rigney, Jr. died in September and one because the last book came out. Which is really kinda a downer for me because I liked both series. I liked Sword of Truth more, but that's not the point.

Oh well, I'll always have Nightside.

Title says it all.

For nearly all of today, I had the lyrics and rhythm of This Gem in my head, while working and everything.

It seems that this makes me a ten-times better housekeeper. Cleanin' rooms is a breeze with this one buzzin' in my head.
