    The Big Picture: #WalrusNo - Why Tusk Is A Bad "Bad" Horror Movie

    It's pretentious French drivel.

    Movie Defense Force: The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Better Than Broody Gritty Wah Wah

    I'm sorry, the defense that the movie was camp is not enough. Have you seen what Marvel Studios has putting out? That's how you do slightly campy fun action movies. And they're still good movies. But what do you know, they're rolling in money and affection while mentioning Man of Steel or...

    Intro into to Comics and Graphic Novels

    Don't forget Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run, that shit's gold.

    Jimquisition: Vertigo

    I'm thinking Ameratsu and Jill from Mighty Jill Off. It's still not much though.

    Escape to the Movies: Prisoners

    Can I just say that after reading these comments, I hate you all.

    Nicolas Cage appreciation thread

    Surprised no one mentioned Adaptation, it's legitimately one of my favorite films.

    RoboCop Reboot

    Whatever the trailer looks like, I think we can all agree it'll probably still be better than the Frank Miller sequels.

    So "this" happened again.

    I'm a shut-in living in a rural neighbourhood so I've never been mugged, although I did once come across about 5 teenagers about to break in to my dad's car. There was a group of us so they scarpered pretty quickly but some of the older ones seemed a little reluctant.

    Recommend me obscure comic books and manga!

    The Batman Vampire stuff. It's not particularly obscure and it does sound a little weird, but it's actually a pretty decent read, if you recognise that the melodrama is as much a send up to the original Dracula novel as it is lazy writing.

    Killing is Too Easy

    Wow, I don't think I've ever disagreed with Yahtzee this much. I mean, he's just flat out wrong here. And don't get me wrong, I do agree videogames have started take murder way too lightly, but this really doesn't apply for The Last of Us (I'd also argue it's acceptable in Uncharted due of the...

    This week, in season 1 of "The Xbox One PR disaster"

    Is anyone else reminded of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vsYnaqpIpE ?

    Zero Punctuation: The Last of Us

    I hate to be that guy, but Cordiceps is a fungus, not a plant. This is an important distinction. OT: I'm kinda disappointed with this review. Not because he didn't like it (I didn't really expect him too), but his criticisms weren't particularly well made and the humour was non-existent. I...

    Poll: Do you support evolution?

    I'm strongly resisting the urge to reply to every "God could have designed evolution" comment with a long Hitchensian rant, but I suspect this is neither the time nor place. Regardless, that organisms change over successive generations is a proven fact, all that's currently debated within the...

    Assassin's Creed Creator Says Nobody Cares About Discs Anymore

    Exactly what I was thinking. The industry's been taking the piss for the few years, lessening the rights of the consumer, making horrible business decisions and then blaming us when things don't go well for them. The sooner they crash the better for all of us.

    Zero Punctuation: E3 2013

    From what I understand, it's not on the PS4 because including an extra Cell processor on the console would really jack up the cost. No idea why they couldn't have used an emulator or why it's not on the X-Box, but there you go. OT: Great episode. I still feel like Yahtzee's being mildly...
