    Live-Action Skyrim Fan Film is Short But Sweet

    Great stuff. Wish I had that guy's skill with FX Could this be a teaser for a much larger project? Anything like this will make an instant fan out of me: http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/31491-suburban-knights-part-1

    Critical Miss: Conan the Barbarian

    Damn straight! That guy was the secret hero of the 80s films. ALL GLORY TO THE CHINESE DESERT HOBO! This said, I fear that this movie will become forgotten within a year or so. As Total Film commented, likely to be a poor copy of Zack Snyder's 300. Will not be rushing out to watch any...

    Name your favorite random thing's in RPG's!

    In terms of sheer RPG joy, it would have to be the ability to fiddle around with weapon stats until you create something along the lines of "The Ice Halberd of Instant Christmas" (two hand pole arm +2 socketed ice gems). Mounting gems into items has been a staple joy of both Diablo 2 and...

    You Won't Believe Your Ears...

    I've given up having conversations with my friends over music. They hate my stuff (emotionally potent, brutal heavy metal) and I hate their stuff (derivitive popular tunes). That said, teaching the history of 20th Century music ought to be on ALL school curriculums. Never let there be a...

    SPOILERS: About The New Doctor Who

    Perhaps it is more of a case of the audience changing? Stephen Moffat (correct spelling?) as the new writer has to try and match Russell T Davis' altogether excellent writing, in order to keep the show from dying of old age. But it is more than this, clearly the new writing is taking the Dr Who...

    NASA: "Apollo 18 Is Not a Documentary"

    How did zombies even GET to the moon? You've intrigued me, Apollo 18. I may have to watch you. Also, this film is entirely unbelievable. As we all know, the moon is REALLY a hiding place for the Independence Day mothership, as well as a crash site Decepticons and source of infinite...

    What you don't like about your own Country

    Touche sir. Probably why I voted for them (along with most of the student population back in 2010). Well that a waste of a vote... I'm thinking of starting the Free Stuff Party. Our policies would be limited but, like, free stuff guys!

    What you don't like about your own Country

    You've just named more than I could possibly type at this time of day (most of which I agree with). Saves me the effort, at least.

    If you were Batman....?

    I revoke that post. Introducing: the Wayne Industries portable cat dispenser. Destroy them with the irresistable power of Cute.

    Your War Machine.

    Wow, okay, a thread on an "Over Kill" weapon of sorts. What about something which leaves the country intact once it has been activated? Hard to concieve of, perhaps. Surely one that doesn't expend any ammunition at all? For me it would have to be one which removes the will to fight in the...

    If you were Batman....?

    A) Mech suit. Possibly with WI FI control for a lazy/hungover Bruce Wayne. B) Alternatively, go down the opposite route. Bruce Wayne in his birthday suit. That would send the criminals running pretty quickly. EDIT: Actually, neither of those would cause Joker to break a sweat. That guy's...

    Social Media the new Scape Goat? Is gaming going to get a break now?

    Interesting topic...and not one that will be answered soon. I am of the generation that grew INTO this social media, and exist in such an environment quite comfortably: therefore my experiences have been generally positive. For this new generation...who knows. Maybe encouragement to...

    What you don't like about your own Country

    Post from the UK. Just fun to see how unifyingly awful most of the western world is in general! Everyone here seems to hate the government to the point of wanting a "meh" option on ballot papers. Also, those that are socially/psychologically unfit to have children breed like rabbits...
