    Your Newest Game: what did you get and why?

    I actually finally upgraded to a Ps4 Friday. I picked up the uncharted 4 bundle. The was a three for the price of two so I got Uncharted collection, Bloodborne and Divinity Original Sin and new copies of Doom and Fallout 4.

    Your ideal Disney, Marvel, or Star Wars crossover?

    I think it is time for some Darth Vader and Dr Doom slash fiction.

    Some thoughts before the Hugo Awards

    I thought so. It seemed to me that the puppy slates were too successful in the nomination process last year that the and then the no awards slate won the second stage of voting too easy for there to have been much of an organized push before the puppy slates were in effect

    Some thoughts before the Hugo Awards

    One thing that I never heard anything about; was there some campaign to keep certain people from joining the Hugo voting pool? It seems to me that for a supposedly rigged contest that the two Puppy groups were able to influence the nomination process fairly easily.

    Poll: Sound of Silence...Which Version is Better?

    S&G for sure. I have always found Disturbed to be an okay band but I could never justify paying for cd because their a little on the boring side imo. But hey without disturbed we would never have The Richard Cheese cover of Down With the Sickness and that's one hell of an awesome cover.

    Ghostbusters reviews are...positive!

    In all fairness the one thing i have less faith then RT scores are IMDB scores. When i was there at lunch there was at least one thread encouraging people to vote 1 whether the user had seen the movie or not.

    I am looking for Sci-Fi book recommendations.

    I know that Player of Games isn't the first chronologically but I found it the most accessible. I had a couple of irl friends recommend I start with Player of games so I am biased because that's where I started with the Culture. My actual first Banks book The Wasp Factory which was rather...

    I am looking for Sci-Fi book recommendations.

    Ian M Banks and his culture series is pretty well regarded. The stories are pretty standalone but i would recommend starting with player of games.

    Soooo.... James "AVGN" Rolfe is in the news this week..

    Murray tends to play disaffected characters really well but i see difference between his performance in say Garfeild vs Lost in Translation. Also for the most part Murray just doesnt do movies he doesn't care about which is one of the biggest reasons we never saw GB3. If you have paid attention...

    Soooo.... James "AVGN" Rolfe is in the news this week..

    I have no issue with people and their opinions but i really dont get why these trailers get more hate then say the BvS trailers. Maybe i just have more connection to dc then Ghostbusters but i saw nothing in the GB trailer as Batman asking if Superman bleeds or the Doomsday reveal. And as to...

    London Has Fallen - And It Can't Get Back Up

    I will give you the Olympus has Fallen had more intense action at the start but the opening attack was so long it became tedious for me. I also think that an action relies heavily on how interesting the villian is and James Woods and Clarke are both more charismatic then the faceless not North...

    Is the Comic Book Movie/TV market too crowded?

    Well I think that Preacher had a good chance of not falling into that trap since its not really superhero related.

    Whats with TV shows so heavily focused on Death?

    Well GoT has been this nihilistic since 1996. And different people like different things which result in trends like the focus on more realistic portrayals of violence and death. There are more optimistic fantasy shows like the Flash on i think the Shannara series will not suffer from the...

    Kylo Ren was the highlight of TFA SPOILERS

    After I saw the movie, I read an interview where Poe was supposed to die in the Tie fighter crash but they liked Isaac so much they kept him for around for they fighter sequences. I had always pegged him as the Han character but because if the script changes he ended up with the thinnest...
