I've had quite a bit of fun playing on the the all dessert no vegetables server. I don't think Daybreak was envisioning that players would vote for candy and only candy but now that we're here this unlock schedule doesn't fit the rest of the server at all. I get there's no changing it but with...

I got motion sick during the hand cam stuff and still liked the movie. It might be the only movie to achieve that. I think every other time a movie has made me motion sick I've left the theater with an unfavorable view of the thing. Cloverfield and Paranormal Activity would be contemporary...

Rutger Hauer did so much garbage to fuel his cocaine habit and I love him for it. He's was the best part of any straight to home video production.

I'm posting full paragraphs about a twenty-seven year old MMO now in the hands of a private equity group trying and succeeding to extract money through bag sales. Obviously I suck.

He did the deliver on a deadline thing for a lot of years. I would rather have a better release schedule but I get him, now that he's older, negotiating a deal for a show where it's ready when it's ready.

I don't hate the characters. I love the monsters. Go monsters! Randall is alright. I know Julie is going to be made wrong by the writers but she really isn't. Her arc is learning that unlike other townsfolk that are manipulated in to hurting themselves or others she was manipulated to not do...

The interaction between the amount of exp you need for any particular level, the group bonus, resource hunter bonus, perk bonus and exp pot and how all of that affects the per kill exp cap is one gigantic black box. Sometimes that box spits out numbers that don't make much sense. I would have...

The resource hunter bonuses do one of things i wanted TLPs to do for a long time now - change up where people level. Changing all the ZEMs each TLP to add variety seemed like a no-brainer to me but this is just fine. I've pulled in some big exp hauls in places I never had any reason to grind in...

She's maybe the most authentic female character of the 21st century. Of course she's horrible. That much of the writing room doesn't realize what they've done adds crucial depth to a story otherwise lacking it. Twilight's protagonist is about a bland everygirl that any young adult reader could...

If this was a story being told in a different medium, like I was a third of the way through the novel, I would be thinking about all of the high concept stuff and big science fiction themes. I would be thinking about where the story was going. As a television show, as this television show, I am...

Alright Acosta, I have a job for you. I need you to go through everything we have in storage looking for something to help us. It's going to sideline you for like five episodes but we'll get the eventual reveal that Sophia is not who she appears to be. It'll be great! Actually let's have Elias...

I saw House of the Dead in the theater not knowing anything about Uwe. I was familiar with the arcade game. It was really fucking bad.

I think you're right. It's Rampage. Rampage was pretty good! edit - by home video exploitation flick standards

Postal, his spree shooter movie, was pretty good. This might be too.
