  1. In this case, it was VERY obvious. But ofcourse, i haven't seen any of the Spiderman movies, X-Men, King Kong, The Hulk, Fantastic Four, the new Superman or whatnot. Things must've changed alot since the The Rock and Armageddon in the 90's.
  2. You're just become too cynic to notice it. And yes, she says "That's not their style". She later tries to explain to Jon Voight that it's more advanced than anything else. I just checked my movie collection. The newest movie is Kill Bill, followed by Lord of the Rings. Everything else is early late 60's to early nineties. I have become an old, elitist movie-geezer. My bad
  3. Someting tells me you weren't going to like the movie regardless of what was done. Easy, ditch the productplacement, the AWESUM references military equipment, stupid technology-errors + 50% human screentime and i would've liked it. And Paul Verhoeven should've directed it. Come, now. You were looking for things to complain about. Product placement in a huge summer blockbuster movie? Big effing deal. Did it make you feel you had to go out and buy any of those things? Doubt And complaining about technology "errors" in a movie about giant transforming robots from space seems a bit nitpicky. You wanted these things to distract you from liking the movie. Admit it. Again, easy. I haven't seen a "Summer blockbuster" since Armageddon, and there sure wasn't nearly as much productplacement there as in this movie. I remember none of it. Also, it's really disingenious and stupid since it breaks the fourth wall between the viewer and the movie itself. Yes, technology in a Transformers movie shouldn't be much of an issue if it wasn't as blatantly stupid as in this one. Christ, admit what? That i can see crap for what it is? The original movie from 1986 was way better than this, but maybe i am too nostalgic. Action-movies in general has gone from hilariously bad, with some exception, such as Die Hard 1, in the 1980's to just irritatingly stupid. Or maybe it's because Michael Bay has done the "biggest" lately.
  4. Sorry, sarcasm-detector wasn't working today. No worries, i just used Starship Troopers as an exaggerate example to get my point through
  5. Watch Starship Troopers. He knows on how to make a movie out of cheezy material. I don't expect someone like Ridley Scott or James Cameron to have done a better Transformers.

  7. I saw it yesterday. This is what i remember: - Chevys - Camaros - Nokia - Apple - Mountain dew - Xbox360 - PS2 and a dancemat - Samsung - Burger King - F-22 - Predator - Other military blablabla-equipment - Silly hacker from highschool knowing the chinese "style" of hacking - Hotwiring a 1930's radio with a computer to send morse-code - Airforce 1 is wirelessly connected to every computer in the Pentagon, CIA, NSA and so on - No Soundwave - No Grimlock Damn you Michael Bay, damn you to HELL.
  8. First, finish off KotOR III, then i wouldn't mind a new Vampire or Cyberpunk RPG.
  9. A PC version will be released, my best best is 6-8 months after the Xbox360 release.
  10. This depends on what drugs you buy. I know a certain someone who likes to smoke some green. He buys it from a guy who sells it to finance his hippie-life (playing with his prog-band in bars for the rest of his life), who in turn buys the seeds from Holland where owning seeds is legal. What terror and destruction did he finance again? Or are we only talking about hard drugs such as cocaine, heroin and meth here?
  11. Necrophilia aside, i liked Fahrenheit. Heavy Rain seems to be the step in the right direction as well--->Necrophilia in HD!
  12. Exploding sheep. On nuclear catapults.
  13. Weird, i completely and utterly agree with Volourn
  14. But as gamers, we win in either case, yay!
  15. Keith Olbermann's head explodes after hearing the news...
  16. I am certainly of the opinion that a lot of disagreements come down to the premises on which a view is based, more than the internal logic. At least between smart people. I don't know if that's what you mean. Smart people know the underlying logic behind the argument and they can also read between the lines of the other's rhetoric. But are all Obsidian posters that smart? Otherwise every discussion and debate would be pretty civil around, would it not? Hell, i even fail to understand the point of the argument sometimes Shut up, poopie-head.
  17. I have learned that most Internet-fights don't start by people having radically different views on life and politics, it's more in terms of failure to communicate properly due to cultural differences and difficulties expressing yourself properly as well.
  18. It's always fun to see some new material. Heck, i never even heard about this before.
  19. Some of you have mentioned "Darker than Black", while i am not too lazy to "google it, mother*****", i want to hear fellow Obsidian-animeholics take on it
  20. Does NG:Sigma have the same options as NG:Black for voiceacting? I.e, one can change from the hideous english voiceacting to japanese with english subtitles.
  21. Ah, retrofuture. My bad, i forgot all about it
  22. Sounds like someone got their girlfriend stolen from a though, badass alphamale, who happened to be a Fallout-fan. Or better yet, the guy was involved in Fallout: Tactics or Brotherhood of Steel and was crushed when the fans ignored/publicly hated it.
  23. Okay, let's say for a second that groin shots doesn't exist, the children have vanished and mini-nukes are everywhere for everyone to use, toasters shooting barbieheads are considered as weapons. But what i don't understand is non-drivable cars powered with nukes for our exploding pleasure, how does that fit in exactly? Where there nuclear powered cars before the great blast? Isn't Fallout based on that the nukes where dropped in the 50's? What?
  24. Says who?
