No, it's luck. Regardless of how favourably the odds are stacked on your side, declaring a movie to be bad and raging against its creators before you've even seen it is assholish. And my point was that the ones that would eat their words would still be assholes for spouting those words in the...

Yes. Being lucky doesn't make you not an asshole. By all means predict that the movie will be crap based on precedent, but hating on it outright with a closed mind doesn't reflect well on you. Give it a chance, even if the odds seem stacked against it. For all we know the movie will be ok but...

Horse shit - those assholes lost it the second a genderbent reboot was announced, long before Feig or anyone was attached to it. And yes, pre-emptively judging a movie based on that alone does make you an asshole.

He's absolutely right, and you don't have to look further than this very thread to see it. Feig: God, these geeks that have been all over me since before the casting for making a female Ghostbusters movie are real assholes. Responders: Well you shouldn't have made a shit trailer! Oh come...

Dude, find the ROM of that and get on it. Sooooooo good! It's hampered a little by the hardware (low frame rate most of the time) and most of the level puzzles are pretty simplistic, but the core gameplay and "wow" factor are solid. Great fun, and quite challenging too (particularly on the...

I haven't played Zero and have barely played Command, but at first glance at least Command seemed pretty crappy. Adventures was crap too. Lylat Wars/Starfox 64 is still the best, followed by Starfox 2 (I don't care that it was unreleased, the game was finished).

Very sad that Zelda's been delayed again, but at least we'll get to see a lot more of it at E3.

Yep, because now they're free to print rogue weapons with higher attack stats. It's kinda bad now because those cards don't yet exist (unless they're revealing some with WoG), but when rogues have, say, an Arcanite Reaper equivalent then it'll be comparable to Shadowflame, which is a good card...

Generally not. I own all the old systems and have no problem plugging one in if I want to play an old game. I love Zelda but have zero interest in the OOT/MM/WW/TP remakes.

Maybe I'll check out the "VR" porn with my 3DS. Super low res but my only option for 3D porn... wait, I have a 3D tv and glasses, maybe I can use those somehow... meh, too lazy to figure it out.

"Minecraft in space" I can get into. It's one huge, static seed that everyone is playing at the same time. If there are ways to terraform and build settlements on planets it could be fun to build your own little fortress on a planet, where you've discovered and named everything there. And if...

Dude, WUT!? The original Alien is phenomenal! I can only imagine the reason you didn't like it was that you were expecting it to be an action blockbuster like Aliens, when in actuality it's a horror/slasher (and not a god damn sci-fi like so many people miscategorise it as!). Imagine how...

For anyone skipping to the end and want to get to get the goods quick, I encourage you to find Something Amyss' posts earlier in the thread - they nailed pretty much every beat. But to reiterate: * The trailer is terrible. This is evident by the fan recut actually making the movie look ok...

I'd argue yes, without question. Grappling with someone's mind is no more inherently unethical than grappling with their body, and if there's no moral dilemma with karate-chopping a gun out of an attempted shooter's hand I don't see why anyone would object to brain bending to achieve the same goal.

I was the same - couldn't find it cheaper than 100AUD. Then I found someone selling a 3DS XL with Starfox, Zelda OoT, Zelda aLBW and Pokemon X for I think 350 IIRC so snapped that up (I was looking to buy a 3DS too but thought the XL was too big, so ended up selling that for 200 and grabbed a...
