Trump needs to post a selfie with it on twitter with it wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat.

Well, Fallout 4 was a shooter, maybe the next Fallout title will be an RPG!

The boy has gotten into Minecraft. Now its all he wants to do. Him and his sister take turns tormenting each other by destroying what they have built. Its much more malicious than breakung a lego creation because you can't use the "it was an accident" excuse when systematically destroying a minecraft creation.

hopefully means a deal on DLC for those of us who couldn't wait.

Mostly Globe and Mail, National Post, and Breitbart now. Used to use CBC and HuffPo but they have gotten less and less useful as news sources and are more sources of attacking men and white people.

Off the top of my head, I feel Silent Hill, WarCraft, Prince of Persia, Tomb Raider, Need For Speed, Doom and Mortal Kombat are better video game adaptations. Nope. The original Resident Evil beats every one of them. That is why they are on number 6. It's embarrassing, really. Milla Jovovich has managed to be better than Jake Gyllenhaal, Angelina Jolie, The Rock, Timothy Olyphant, and all the other people that have taken a hack at a video game movie. She's a goddess. I think a lot of people forget how good the original was. Plus it was a good step ahead of the whole zombie craze that has been going on for the last decade. No knock on Jovovich, she is one badass lady, but I just think the movies aren't very good. The first one was watchable but I disliked watching all of the others. Also have you seen Tomb Raider lately? I feel that movie improved with age. You know how sometimes you watch a bad 80's movie and it just feels nostalgic and fun because it's so wonderfully 80's? Tomb Raider became that for the horrible movies of the 90's. I hated it when it first came out but I watched it again recently and what was just bad and derivative when it came out almost seems campy and tongue in cheek. I haven't seen either of the Hitman movies. I heard the sequel was abysmal, but I'll check this one out. I've never played the games so I doubt I'll get much out of it. Its how I felt about Batman and Robin. When it came out it was terrible, but watching it now, it was terrible on purpose. The puns, Robin leaving a nightwing symbol shaped hole in the wall when he busts through. Batman picking up a giant chuck of iced Robin and thawing him with a pen laser. Its just so much cheesy campy fun.

Of course the worrying thing about immortality is the old Murphey's Law problem - in that you will eventually get stuck somwhere you cannot escape from.. for the rest of eternity.In Planetary (warren ellis comic) there was a super team made up of homages to Tarzan, the Shadow/Green Hornet, Fu Manchu, Doc Savage and others that accidentally tore a hole into another universe and they collapsed their headquarters to seal the breach. The Doc Savage homage was immortal and his legs were trapped under rubble. When he was found like 60 years later his legs had completely atrophied and he was wheelchair bound.

Games you want that'll likely never exist

Single player Warcraft RPG. Basically just take World of Warcraft and do up a single player experience. Save on art assets, just balance combat for single player, and spend a couple years crafting a story, sidequests, scripted events, etc. -
as an alternative, we suggest ac/dc's "highway to hell"... on bagpipes. HA! Good Fun!

The girl is turning 8 tomorrow. Taking her to the Catfe (a cafe crawling with cats) to have pastries and engage with felines. She wore her kitty dress, with kitty leggings, and her brother promptly sprayed her with the hose.

My only concern with WWs setting is Steve Trevor crashed his plane on Themyscera, WW1 wasn't exactly known for its long range fighter planes was it?

I love that they managed to fit the tiara and wristbands

It just keeps getting better IMO. Also: Wild Cards TV Series

Jeremy Irons is the best Alfred. He has the sophistication of Michael Gough, and the Father-figure-ness of Michael Caine, but then also has some grit so you can totally believe he was SAS at some point.

You're trying to make a joke, I think? But you're only confusing me. It's funny how liberals axt like they support the homosexuals, yet their first go to insult is implying homosexuality on their opponent. Haven't you heard? Gays got their marriage rights so they moved down the progressive stack. Now they are just misogynists because they refuse to sleep with women.

My understanding was the programmers were working on bugfixing and whatever real expansion they have in the pipeline, while they had a bunch of artists not doing anything, so they did some cosmetic DLC. It's overpriced, but adds quite a bit of art assets.

Who's Darrell Castle and why have I not heard of him?
-
Ex Machina - Slow, but interesting, with a pretty decent ending. Mad Max - 2 hour car chase, and thats not a bad thing. Terminator - Didn't see Tomorrowland - Surprisingly decent. Chappie -Its basically Robocop mixed with Short Circuit 2. Chappie was a fantastic and endearing character, surrounded by terrible people trying to influence him. Definitely worth a watch.

In the middle of transitioning to our new warehouse management system. So far its a disaster. The pickers are being directed everywhere except where the product should be picked from, orders take twice as long to close as they do to pick, we now have to weigh each individual carton instead of the order as a whole. Its a mess. Our sales numbers are down by almost half, customers are complaining, and we can't even receive most of our shipments because the main branch isn't online yet so we have to do some stupid hybrid of the new system and old system to receive. We have had a shipment on the floor for two weeks that we can't put away because we don't know how to enter it into the system. Our boss keeps making promises to head office we all know we can't keep too. We have a backload of 10 shipments we need to receive, and he said it would be done by friday. Normally we can get between 1 to 1.5 shipments a day away, but the new system its more like half a shipmemt a day. So he is promising that we can get two weeks worth of work done in a week.

Volo please can we not play the old " white people are victims of awful political persecution " ....this is not GG, lets not try to exaggerate the reality Yeah, white people are only victims of persecution by the left, which is only about half the population. The right thinks white people are swell because they were responsible for the rights, culture, and technology that allows for the highest standard of living in the world. Persecution might be a bit strong. actual persecution, as in negative consequences, against whites exist in the west is on college campuses and far left hugboxes. True, the only places where What is a hugbox? Also I'm not sure if you joking but when you say " as in negative consequences, against whites exist in the west is on college campuses " how do colleges do this? Any sort of position with "Diversity" in the name is meant to find ways to advantage non-whites. They often hold events that exclude white students, etc. A hugbox is any sort of environment where opinions not shared by the group are kept as far away as possible, and any member is immediately attacked if they share an opinion contrary or any sort of sympathy for people who hold contrary opinions to the group. Hollywood is a left-wing hugbox. Actors/directors/producers/etc. who are openly conservative often find it hard to get work, as the people in authority frown on those opinions.

If anyone has any ultraviolet or Disney Movie Rewards codes lying around, send them this way. Especially the DMR codes. Use those points for free gifts for the offspring.
