    Holy crap, Frozen suuuuuucks.

    'It's a Disney movie' can answer just about all those questions. Take a good look at most Disney movies and they have similar faults but I go agree with you that Frozen is vastly overrated. It took me three times to watch it all the way through because of the music numbers. Let it Go was good...

    2014 Steam Winter Sale casualty report

    Well after the devastation of last year which totaled about $200 this year I managed to stay well away and spent nothing. I have such a backlog right now that I'm just not buying anything until I catch up. Damn you university for taking up all my time.

    Good examples of "The Chosen One" - Possible Spoilers

    A little obvious probably but Harry Potter did it well. For the first few books Harry was the chosen one basically because he was the only one who did anything about the crazy crap going on. Then after finding out about the prophecy and everything it pointed out that the only reason he is the...

    So are drunk people responsible or not?

    I guess the difference is with drunk driving you clearly have made the decision to drive because no one made you do it but with sex you might not have agreed to it because you're in no state to. So if you have clearly agreed to having sex with someone then yes you are responsible but if not then...

    Man informs stranger is wife is potentially cheating, starts controversy

    Well he shouldn't have been snooping like that, it's pretty rude but personally I would rather know than not know if my partner was doing something suspicious like that. I guess it's a case of doing the wrong thing for the right reasons.

    Grats, you won the lottery.

    Well first off I'd get rid of my student loans. Then I'd buy a nice house both in my home town and somewhere in Europe. I'd give a million to each of my parents and then put the rest into savings. Most it would probably go on endless travel. I'd keep working though to keep me occupied and just...

    Game of Thrones Actor: A Movie Could Happen - Update

    A movie about Robert's Rebellion or Aegon's conquering of the seven kingdoms would be pretty cool. Even telling the story of some of the crazy kings like Baelor would be good. I'd hate it if they switched to finishing off the book series in movies though. I've read the books and it seems to much...

    'Pick-up artist' banned from the UK

    Well seeing as he's condoning and encouraging borderline illegal behaviour I'd say that's justification for rejecting him. There's enough sexist pricks in the world as it is we don't need this asshole making more.

    Poll: Portal Vs Portal 2

    Definitely Portal 2, it took everything that made the original amazing and built on it. I found just about everything said was funny, my sister and I frequently quote GLaDOS' lines to each other. It was also really good how it included some new mechanics like the gels to stop it being too much...

    "GET OVER HERE!" phrases that are engraved in your brain years later

    "It's him, it's that Abe guy" - Oddworld Abe's Exodus. "Don't feed the yao guai, that is all"- Fallout 3 "Would you kindly" - Bioshock and of course "Ooga booga!" - Crash Bandicoot.

    Are you single or not ?

    Been happily single since my last relationship and have no plans to change that anytime soon. I've seen too many of my friends completely changed into hermits when they got into a relationship and realised by a douche I was when I had my last boyfriend so I'd rather not turn back into that...

    Your favourite Star Wars moments

    There are just so many good moments. When Yoda pulls out his lightsaber to fight Dooku and he's every bit as awesome as you thought he would be. When Anakin first rises as Vader. The epic battle on Mustafar (yes I liked the prequels, sue me). Han getting frozen. Vader revealing he's Luke's...

    The Crow Reboot Will Begin Shooting "In the Spring"

    I get the feeling they're just going to try to make it as edgy as they can and forget about everything that made the original so great. Why can't they just leave the classics alone? The only reboot I've liked is Total Recall and that's because it was practically a whole different movie.

    Ebola Cannot Be Halted or Slowed Any Time Soon, Says New Study

    It's all scare tactics and fear mongering. Yes it's killed a lot of people but wanna know something interesting. In the same time span Aids/HIV has killed over 600,000 people in Africa. No ones talking about that though.

    What was the best senior prank you've seen?

    Well in my senior year someone managed to get an old tv on the roof of our gym and no one knows who did it. It's become a legend at my school now but unfortunately because the principal is a kill joy they've forbidden seniors from pulling pranks anymore and anyone who does isn't allowed to go to...
