Yeah, I think they seriously overrated the back story's use for a whole movie. The others are pretty good.

In Denmark you can apply for favorable startup loans and tax benefits, unfortunately most of us feel too comfortable being salary slaves. Up to about a decade ago the government would even write you a check to get your business going. No money for those kinds of shenanigans in today's economy.

Shat. ****. Interesting, you can overcome the filter with grammar. Incidentally you should worry about what this place is doing to your language. Yes I'm looking at you Walsh. Little stars do not belong in written language. Losing my father to cancer was a really rough time for me, keep your chin up.

Better colour representation as well as contrast. LCD's can't match their lower ranges (blackness levels) I've got one too, the damn thing refuses to break so I can get a flatscreen.

I slept right through my alarm clock and missed a meeting with a professor at uni which took ages to set up. I'm going to be angry at the world for the rest of today at least. Why does one always think it's possible to close one's eyes 'just for a few minutes' when dead tired.

I think the litmus test is whether a film works on it's own premise. Whether it 'closes in on itself' to form something unique and uncompromising. If that makes any sense. Sci Fi movies almost automatically look dated a decade after their release simply because expectations and technology changes. Blade runner gets around that by its superb cinematography. It's a beautiful film. It's not fantastic acting by everyone all the time that does it, it's this inexplicable something I tried to characterize above which is also what constitutes a great work of art. And of course the movie should never be compared with the book, I mean of course that is going to happen, but it is in my view a fundamental mistake to regard the generic movie and book as anything other than distant relations touching on some of the same themes. This is also why I can stand watching LoTR for instance. A movie can't possibly compete with what notions you create in your own mind as you read the book.

Is this where they supply the game and graphics processing and you only supply the input.

Best part of planet terror. The Machete preview was in Planet terror, Death Proof is the one with Kurt Russel as a psycho stunt driver. Machete

I really hate the way the AI sends one unit to attack and a whole stack as reserve, you can only see one enemy deployment zone, so the rest could come from anywhere, including spawning right in the middle of your massed artillery. Even worse when you have an insignificant force attacked and your stack with all your best units in reserve are fed piecemeal to the enemy with no hope of setting up a defensive position. Really poor change from the old reinforce from the rear system. You can't do anything to avoid this kind of massacre. Your army will join even if it had no movement points at the end of the turn. A simple yes/no to reinforcements would have been nice.

On the topic of sentimental favorites I'll throw some in, Down by Law and Ghost Dog by Jim Jarmusch. Also Woody Allen. He made practically the same movie 40 times while he was married to Mia Farrow but they're pretty funny most of them anyway. I like the way his neurotic dialogues drive the scenes.

I understand where Enoch is coming from. I however, loved Rutger's speech in the end, almost bringing a mantear out of me From memory 'I've watched sea beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate, attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I take it back, that's not cement. The soundtrack is awesomely merged there as well.

So, what the hell did you write in the caption.

Why is pissed censored. That doesn't make any sense. It might be the past perfect of piss, but that's incidental the most common usages. Gorillas are awesome.

Well, he was a supersoldier.

Max Payne was getting pretty Kitch, in a good way, by Max Payne 2. As someone already said it had a lot of self-humor. The psychedelic passages were over the top, and the bullet time gunfights worked well, not original or anything even back then, just well done. If they keep the same approach it could be good, if they decide to re invent it and make it solely comic book gritty like the movie, it's probably going to be bad.

outside of the backlit wacoms that some of them rock You mean where the screen is the tablet. I SO want one of those, unfortunately it's like two months pay. I would want to test one out a bit first. No shops here with a demo of one. Just some Mac thingimagingies that aren't really up to the same standard.

The dialouge is indeed pretty corny and expected, but Rutger delivers. The hokeyness doesn't hamper him in the least. I'll leave you to decide what kind of comment that is on his acting skills. I mean, that man has been in more bad movies than... well Rudger Hauer, but It seems to suit him. Contrast the scene where he kills Tyrel which is quite fabulous and one or two other instances I can remember where he was in a whole other category of excellence. It's not easy having to deal with this kind of 'high' literary style that rolls off the tongue like cement. While it's certainly true that most Sci Fi buffs are sentimental about blade runner to the point of nausea, there is a reason. It's an excellent movie, not that I am going to buy it again every time Ridley Scott resides to make a new 'final revision'. Where are we at now, 3, 4, 5...

You can't make a shooter whose principal gameplay challenge is pint point aiming for console. Well you can, but it's going to suck. I predict vehicle sections, boats, planes, flying carpets. Ping pong minigames.

Ahh, maybe RDM stands for the new Gallactica series, anyway, you are still a moron for spurting out a blanket statement like that.

Forgive me, and what tv show have you written and produced? Please tell us how you know better the RDM? I was not aware I needed special dispensation to have an opinion about RDM's, praise be his initials, show.

It's not very good, but theres a time and place for bad TV that requires nothing from your intellect. Switching off and spazzing out with a cold beer, don't underestimate it.

That Japanese Robot chick that looks like a cadaver really unnerves me.

Well I wouldn't have wasted time critiquing if I didn't think there was a lot of potential there, only some of which was realised.

I don't think there was a perfect way to wrap up all that baggage. They did reasonably well, not falling into the trap of trying to explain everything. Some elements did feel a little cheesy though. Driving the fleet into the sun, Starbuck going 'poof'.

One big Deus Ex Machina that the entire fleet would agree to throw away technology and go native just like that. Didn't sit right with me at all.
