Just saw Transformers 2. 4 things I hated, the rest was very entertaining. Hated things were: 1: Megan Fox airbrushing a motorcycle gastank upside down. WTF. 2: Pretender. 3: Devastators Testicles. 4: Robot Heaven.

Castle is great. Mostly because of Nathan Fillion. Him and Stana Katic have some pretty good chemistry too.
-
I like the show, but the overall feeling I'm getting so far is "GET ON WITH IT" Also: sex scene between soldier and girl was dumb "I've felt closer to you than anyone in a long time" She's talked to him once! Anyway, it feels more like Battlestar Galactica than Stargate. Speaking of a change in style... does anyone else want to punch themselves in the crotch whenever Sanctuary has those stupid split screens this season?

Housing prices here will increase by about 20% by 2012, however I doubt $50,000 is enough to invest in the property market. I don't think they sell quarters of a house. Edit: And maybe I'm missing something, but 20% by 2012 is supposed to by a high increase, yet that's less than 7% per year. I could make that kind of appreciation on a basic long-term savings account. Apparently with all the car companies getting beat, Detroit's real estate market was ridiculous. Average price of a house was like 18,000 because there were/are no jobs so no one can live there. Eventually it will get better so that would be a sweet investment.

Sounds like Battlefront 3 before it was cancelled.

Half the fun of Magic is building your deck.
-
I only bought pre-con decks to use as a base to build my own. For instance, the Ivory Doom deck I mentioned earlier I added a couple of cards that gave all of your creatures of one type +1/+1, a couple that gave all your creatures of one type fear, and some that gave all creatures of one type protection from black. So my army of 6/6 clerics who could only be blocked by black creatures but couldn't be hurt by them were pretty devastating. Could still be fireballed, but that was avoided by the clerics that prevent X damage, where X is the number of clerics in play.
-
The Ivory Doom onslaught theme deck was the last one I bought. Was a great base for a cleric deck. I added about 10 cards or so that made it very powerful. I haven't played in like 5 years though so I don't know anything about current cards.

AND kids. Marvel won't change there comics? Why not the audience grows smaller and has been for such a long time, maybe a change is in order. (Angrliy shakes fist) Stay off my lawn young punks! There are comics out there for every kind of person except those who don't like pictures in their books. The problem is people think they're just for kids or nerds and no one outside the core audience buys them, and kids are too busy playing video games to read something.

Yes, they do rock ridiculously hard. Last time I saw them was back in '95 in Vegas, during the Heatseeker tour iirc. Do they still end the show with two huge cannons rising from the stage while playing For those about to rock? Man, I can still remember the concussive force hitting me in the chest when they fired those cannons. 12 cannons.

My guess is Marvel's comic stuff will be unchanged, and what we'll see is a lot more marketing might. We might see an X-Men series on ABC, and surely all the marvel cartoons will now air on one of disney's susidiaries. Apparently the Pixar crew are insanely excited to be able to utilize the marvel properties and were already talking to the marvel peeps before the deal was finalized. Disney would be smart to start plugging comics in general in various movies and tv shows in order to break the idea that comics are for nerds and kids. There are titles for everyone, and owning the biggest comics publisher, breaking the mass-market stigma on comics would be a good idea.

Its good, but not as good as the Hogfather. Sean Astin does a fan nod and orders "po-tay-toes" in a tavern.

Just got back from an AC/DC concert. Angus Young did like a 25 minute guitar solo. It was epic.

Mass Effect 360: New DLC available
Oerwinde replied to GreasyDogMeat's topic in Computer and Console
I snagged it this morning before work, and haven't had a chance to play it yet. I grabbed it sight unseen figuring its Mass Effect it'll be good. Now I'm seeing the backlash against it and wondering if I made a mistake. -
**** or GTFO... Post pooper... Copypasta... etc.

BREAKING NEWS: 8 NEW PARADOX TITLES ANNOUNCED
Oerwinde replied to Llyranor's topic in Computer and Console
One of the devs in the Vicky 2 forums that Vicky2 will be based on HoI3. Based on that statement I will not be buying it as I didn't like HoI3 at all. -
Apparently Loeb's work on Hulk is pretty awful too. Ultimatum had some decent ideas, and some of the deaths were needed/interesting, but overall it was terrible. Magneto dying was a good thing, he's overused and after what he did it was the only way to go. I don't understand how he could use magnetism to kill all wolverine's cells though. Wolverine is so overused so I didn't mind seeing him go, but until I read Ultimate X-men requiem, I thought they were gonna go Ultimate Cable with him, which would have been cool. Janet and Hank's deaths were stupid. They managed to make Dazzler cool then they killed her. Syndicate was one of the like 2 new characters they made up for the Ultimate U and they kill him. Nightcrawler was a terrible death, the man can effing teleport, how does he get killed by a wave? Cyclops I don't mind dying, I didn't like the method of his death. Doom's death was lame and he shouldn't even be in the freaking universe anyway.
-
I kept saying Marvel needs to trade Jeph Loeb back to DC for Geoff Johns, then I realized that that would mean GL would likely suck
-
I scoff at this statement. Since when has a DC event been anything else than a confusing cosmic mess which ultimately leads back to where it started? I'm not up to snuff on DC events, I'm only following Blackest Night as its most directly tied to Green Lantern, which is one of two(the other being Green Lantern Corps) DC books that I read. Let me rephrase though. Blackest Night is like Ultimatum, only better written.
-
So after 2 issues of Blackest Night and like 3 deaths, I'm saying that Blackest Night is Ultimatum, only well written.

I think my favorite sandman story was the one about the emperor of the US. Especially when it turned out to be true.

BREAKING NEWS: 8 NEW PARADOX TITLES ANNOUNCED

I love paradox for the simple fact that the EU3 expansion is made up of pretty much 100% fan suggestions. -

Ok, what are the other 5? -
If Uwe Boll would give up on directing and become a Producer, he would be a powerhouse. The man is a prodigy at securing funding and grade A talent, if he could just put that towards projects that aren't destined to fail from day one....
