  1. South Park tonight was weird and bad.

      I thought it was funny. I was in tears during the movie previews.

  2. We're talking about X-Men: First Class. Read Duke's comment, he states it clearly. The Dark Knight is excellent, but very overrated, and I think First Class easily tops it in almost every way.
  3. Your brother is a retard. Both X-Men and There Will Be Blood are excellent films, and if someone calls X-Men the WORST superhero movie they've ever seen, they are fucking WRONG. First Class surpassed the Dark Knight, to me. It's incredible.
  4. Beat Trails in the Sky last night. That's a really good game. I've also started my annual Xenogears playthrough.

      This post has redeemed you by a recognizable margin.

  5. AS SOON AS I CAN I will preorder this thing. I am SO sold. Nintendo is SO fucked. I am content.
  6. Tonight's episode was painful. Reliving that scene where
  7. That cover of Immigrant Song hurts my soul. That trailer totally misrepresents the pace and feel of the books and Swedish movie. Unless this is a major departure from the originals, I deem this trailer: awful!
  8. There's nothing I disagree with in your last post except your first paragraph. You compare Batman and Robin to RotPotA, but the difference is, Rise of the Planet of the Apes is NOT OUT YET. I love smart apes, but I already said I hated Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes. That's it.
  9. I posted in the good movies thread, but I'll sum up here. Better than the Dark Knight, I fucking loved it. Best superhero movie I've ever seen. Fucking incredible.
  10. Trolling for the most part about 50/50. I don't like movies like Juno and Win/Win. I don't like this new movement of 'quirky' film, a movement this, judging from the trailer, seems to belong to. Again, I didn't call Gordon-Levitt an obscure actor as you seem to think I did, if you properly read my post you would see I said I believed the movie would succeed because of him. I called it a hipster movie only because it has Gordon-Levitt, has a 'quirky' aesthetic and all the hipsters I know thoroughly enjoy both those things. I was NOT trolling, however, about Rise of the Planet of the Apes. I love Planet of the Apes, and I hate the Tim Burton one. I truly think Rise of the Planet of the Apes looks like an excellent, high quality film. I don't think the CGI looks bad at all, and as I stated before, I have a thing for Smart Apes. My favorite comic book character is Gorilla Grodd. Peter Jackson's King Kong is one of my favorite movies of all time. I think the plot looks very cool, and I can totally relate to Caesar and his situation of rejection because he's not 'human'. I've been in several situations in the past that are similar. People can relate to things that you can't relate to. That is a thing that happens. As for the cast, I respect James Franco as an actor, John Lithgow is an incredible actor, Freida Pinto is pretty and not an awful actress by any means, and Andy Serkis has an excellent track record. Also, just because bad movies can have high production values doesn't mean that production values mean 'shit all' for the movie. They can add a layer of polish that is very difficult to achieve without them. Also, a film like Rise of the Planet of the Apes hasn't been done before, at least not any film I've seen, so your 'lack of creativity' argument goes right out the window. Also, I enjoyed the Hangover 2. It made me laugh and I wasn't bored, and to me, that makes a decent movie. People have different opinions than you, WP, myself being one of them. I most certainly don't appreciate the tone of your post, and I certainly don't appreciate your treating me as if I know nothing of the medium: You've entirely discounted my opinion and simply substituted yours, only in a tone far ruder than the one I used. I will state this: I much prefer the mainstream studio film industry to the independent one. By far. In the past few months alone I've seen many movies I've enjoyed and many I haven't. The ones I've enjoyed have been exclusively studio films, with the exception of 'Super'. This is an opinion. I will clarify that I was trolling for a small segment of my post. I also apologize if my post came off as rude. That was not my intent. TL;DR: I love smart apes, that's my opinion, get mad if you want, don't be a douche about it, I'm sorry for trolling and if I came off as rude. I also much prefer studio films to independent films.
  11. I think it's indicative of the path they're going to take with the relationship on the show. I think they're developing the Littlefinger/Sansa relationship and not paying as much attention to Hound/Sansa, since they've said maybe two words to each other all season.
  12. I'm going to again talk about my love for smart apes. They are APES. But SMART. This movie looks fucking incredible. High production values, cool fucking plot, A-List actors, interesting premise, I don't see how it DOESN'T look good. About 50/50: It looks like another piece of shit Gordon-Levitt hipster movie that's getting a wide release even though it doesn't deserve one, though it'll do well because it's Gordon-Levitt, it has a guy with cancer in it, and it's 'quirky'. Fuck movies like that, clogging up the cinema, devaluing respectable studio films. I'm a hater, yeah, but fuck it.
  13. Motherfucking First Class. I walked out of the cinema with my heart racing. What the fuck was that shit?! Did I die and go to fucking heaven? Horns on the mask?! Deflecting bullets?! "This was your fault!"? Fuck to the motherfucking yes! First Class topped every single other superhero movie I've ever seen, and, optimistic as I was, I think it'll even top Green Lantern. I thought Thor was good, then I saw X-Men. Funny without being ridiculous, serious without getting up-its-own-ass, plenty of references for fans, cool cameo, excellent fucking casting, great chemistry between the two leads, excellent writing, brilliant characterization (something Thor lacked sorely), slick camerawork, an excellent opening sequence (sorry, Dean), and a fucking exhilarating speech towards the end. Yes. Yesyesyes. Yesyesyesyesyesyesyes. This fucking movie... is better than the Dark Knight.
  14. Saw First Class. Wow. Fucking wow. FC>>>>>>>>>The Dark Knight.

  15. Finished the books TODAY. Can't wait for DwD. Favorite Characters: Tyrion, Theon, Jon Snow.
  16. Had a nightmarish migraine yesterday that is showing signs of recurring today. *sigh*

  17. The end of "One Minute" was insane.
  18. The best show that has ever aired on television. I am convinced of this. Watch it. Watchitwatchitwatchit. It's unbelievable that this show is on television. Look at all the other homogenized camp that's considered good 'for TV'. Breaking Bad is on another level. It's not just quality entertainment, it's high art. It's a show that needs to be studied. The episodes I recommend you savor most (my favorites) are: "Over" and "Fly" Continually update this thread with your thoughts, new viewers. I'm eager to see you lose your shit over its pure unadulterated greatness.
  19. I like the Playstation home console line, as well. Thank god they're (hopefully) not naming the NGP the 'PSP2'. The Xbox 720 would sound pretty ridiculous, but I think they'll name it something else, albeit with the 'Xbox' brand. Ninty's never gone with a numbered console before, so they wouldn't start now. Closest they've ever come was Famicom/Nintendo and Super Famicom/Super Nintendo. I don't think there's too much to worry about.
  20. Legend of Legaia was a good game. Particularly the battle system. I don't agree with your bashing of other contemporary games, though, and I really love Xenosaga and FFX, as well as XII and XIII. Uncharted, too. A flaw Legaia had, though, was the art direction. That shit was godawful. And this isn't a complaint about Legaia in particular, but I always find CG cutscenes from that era painful to watch.
  21. After reading this thread, I've decided the only logical conclusion I can come to is that everyone here is lying and is at least two inches shorter than they claim to be. That said, I'm 6'0". No, really.
  22. Saw Erika from Penny Arcade today. Was starstruck.

  23. The Hangover Part II. Reviews said it retread too much old territory, but it made me laugh and was very classy. The visuals were very cool and it felt very polished and cool. I enjoyed it quite thoroughly.
  24. Cyber Rat, too, IIRC. And Johnny's into Smash Bros. That's me, Six, Johnny and Cyber Rat right there, which is plenty for a podcast.
  25. I'm a huge, huge, huge fan of Event Horizon. It's my desktop background right now. I find it to be entertainment of tremendous quality and it's one of the few Blu-Rays I own.
