  1. i can only assume youve hardly played into it

     

    not by choice

     

     

    It should be added that I hate turn based strategy games, actually I'd go as far to say that Final Fantasy and the like aren't even games.

     

    The concept of fallout intrigues me, and I want to see where it goes, but all Fallout wants me to do is die. And what fucking hateful bastard designed the interface.

  2. W00t! The mythical Fallout 3. It's finally going to be....I hope it keeps to it's roots after all the hand-overs.

    Having just downloaded the original Fallout, I can only asume these roots you speak of involve spending ages in a dark cave kicking rats before escaping to the outside to be killed by giant rats. This is all there is to the game, shock ending I know.

  3. I hate the idea. It's the test-audience mentality gone mad. When I sit down to watch Heroes its because I trust the writers and I want to be entertained, I don't want any input on the show, I just want to keep on being entertained by the same people who've been making the show since the start (or at least a couple of the people, that's how things are in television)

     

    It's all a racket to get revenue from phone-ins, mark my words.

  4. :)

    why don't we have them? i'm not pushed about the last one but i saw it and thought of lottie,

    the dear sweet, fragile little thing.

     

    That dear sweet, fragile little thing transforms into a kitten and a missile base.

    Found this in a rather respected gallery in in Manchester, England, not an art piece but a mixed media presentation on how other cultures live, you know for kids. Sometimes casual non-ironic racism is worse than blatant non-ironic racism.

  6. Just a thought, but were they looking at this? compare cheeks.

    and its so dubious I shouldn't even dignify this with a response, but Jude Law as Ozymandias? No. Keanu Reeves as DrManhatten? No fucking way. Some random as Night-Owl, sure, I'm all for random unknowns, in my dream version of Watchmen the most famous actor would be David Carruso.

  7. Those trailers still don't show me enough of the game to get excited about. What does have me excited is that the game is being helmed by the team that made the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time trilogy and is very billed as a sequel to those games in everything but name.

  8. I'm dying to see that. I'm a big Shane Meadows fan and everything I've seen so far has looked really good.

     

    Its the only one of his movies that I have seen. Dead Man's Shoes has been screaming from the DVD rack in every shop I go to, shouting, "hey, I'm a british movie, and I'm probably not shit!" but I still haven't got round to watching it. Fun fact, the main character in This Is England is called Shaun Meadows, names have been changed to protect the innocent, but only just.

  9. This Is England, not a perfect movie, but highly recomended.

     

    It's a skinhead movie, and it does have its moments of extreme violence, but it also gives a great sense of how much fun they were having (even after the gang splits and the story follows the extreme Nationalist side). You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll throw up a little in your mouth, and at the end of it all you'll have caught a very personal glimpse of a culture that usually only observed from the outside.

     

    Probably deserves it's own thread, but it is late and I am lazy.

  10.  

    You can see Jacob in that scene? Sounds like a case for Lostpedia

     

    I thought recently that with Desmond's premonitions that Lost was turning into Heroes, now I know its turning into Carnivale in the best possible way.

     

    With the Richard thing, possibly it has something to do with cloning, the Asian doctor seen in the orientation videos is known by different names on different videos(though lostpedia says this was debunked by the show's creators. Damn)

     

  11. he can't die, he's too important.

     

     

     

    He obviously wont die, if they wanted to finish him, they'd make it official, gunshot to the chest, tis but a flesh wound.

     

     

     

    So who are the original inhabitants of the island? Possible if crazy theory, did they come in on the Black Rock? Notice how Richard hasn't seemed to have aged.
