    Warcraft reviews not looking great

    That's definitely High Elf. Remember, it's before Arthas wtf-pwned them and severed their connection to the sunwells in WC3, which changed their appearance to the red-ish Blood Elves of WoW. They should have green-purple skin, and green/gold insignia, with purple light coming out of their eyes...

    Jim Sterling in court.

    I strongly suspect that: (a) you'd struggle to show that the material was not only false, but defamatory (i.e. that it has caused damage to your reputation); and (b) even if successful in showing that it's defamatory, I doubt that you'd be able to prove that you've suffered financially...

    Man spends 6,000$ on microtransactions in a single day

    Just a query. Do we actually have any verification that the drop rate is what it's advertised as, or are we trusting the word of the nice people who thought that adopting poker machine mechanics (with real money) was an ethically appropriate business model for a computer game?

    Cancer will always be with us, according to more recent research

    Of course cancer will always be with us. Now that Michael Bay's films are on the internet, you just can't get rid of them.

    Young Justice Season 3- On Netflix?

    I only watched the second season of JY, and whilst I liked it, I was disappointed that they didn't use the time jump to age up the character relationships and problems to more of an 'older teen' level. I don't mean Twilight-esque teen romance (generally aimed at middle-aged women, teenage girls...

    Serious things you just can't take seriously

    I REALLY want to see somebody one day attempt an actual crime of a kind that's too serious for the guards to wait for the 'normal security' to arrive (like an assassination attempt on an official that's too junior to have his own armed security entourage). I just want to see if they're going to...

    Does love exist...

    Hey, keep your scatological fantasies to yourself, bud.

    J.J. Abrams Addresses Lack of Rey in The Force Awakens Merchandise

    What you're missing is that Kylo Ren is quite specifically NOT made out to be an established bad guy at the peak of his powers. He's a fledgling with no real training, who is embarking on a 'villains journey' at the same time that Rey is having her 'heroes journey'. I.e. Kylo is going to...

    J.J. Abrams Addresses Lack of Rey in The Force Awakens Merchandise

    In fairness, I do remember that, as a kid playing with my friends in the early 80s, we used to play paper-rock-scissors to avoid playing with the Luke figurine. NOBODY wanted to play with Luke - I mean, even as 6 yr old boys, we thought Leia was cool, but Luke was just too whiny.

    Joss Whedon Officially Quits the Marvel Cinematic Universe

    There's probably a generation gap here, but worth pointing out a few things about Lucas: - Lucas's greatness was always as a producer. Not as a director, and certainly not as a writer. But as a producer he did some truly amazing things during his peak - not just Star Wars, but Indiana Jones...

    Can we stop with the "Batman is more relatable than Superman" thing?

    I couldn't care less about relatability, if you're going to define that as 'being similar to me' - that's the last thing I'd look for in a comic book, or in any 'genre piece' regardless of medium. I prefer Batman because he has more interesting moral flaws. Many of those flaws actually make...

    Best PC port

    Well it depends, obviously. Do you mean the best quality seaport that happens to be located in a politically correct town? If that's the case, I'd go with Sydney - truly stunning harbour, and the Opera House overlooking the bay is everything it's cracked up to be. If it's the more...

    Five Actors Who Should Play Green Lantern

    Now THAT I do agree with. Same with all the fawning over Rey in TFA - I think it's awful the way in which women with full figures get body-shamed by the very people who claim to be all about ending sexism (particularly the 'if you're skinny with a large bust, you don't exist' crap), and whilst...

    Five Actors Who Should Play Green Lantern

    Just don't do the 1980s Doctor Who mistake of casting a kid side-kick. Child fans want to be the Doctor, even when it's a middle-aged Tom Baker or a 60 year old William Hartnel, not the Doctor's annoying kid side-kick. On the other hand, doing what Doctor Who did in Earthshock (it's 35 years...

    Five Actors Who Should Play Green Lantern

    I share the Linda Carter attraction, but you seem to be confusing 'race of warrior women who spend their lives training for war' with 'bikini models'.
