    George Lucas Says He Sold Star Wars to "White Slavers" - Update

    You know, Disney wouldn't have had to bring the franchise back from the dead with a tried-and-true formula if Lucas hadn't have done his best to kill the damn thing. Imagine if Lucas had done all the right things on the prequels, like hiring amazing dialogue-writers and dedicated script editors...

    Escape to the Movies: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies - There and Back Again

    I'm going to say something about the Hobbit trilogy: It's the JRR Tolkien version of the Star Wars Prequels movies.

    Zero Punctuation: Sonic Boom - Boom or Bust

    Okay, honesty time, I liked Sonic CD. And it had a time-travel mechanic. Finding the areas where you go go the 88 miles per hour needed was rewarding. Also: Sonic 3 is my favorite... not 2. I also liked the Sonic R songs. I liked how I could put my Sonic R disc into a cd player and it...

    Star Wars' "Black Stormtrooper" to Critics: "Get Used to it"

    That's not paraphrasing, that's saying something different and then arguing with what you just said. Otherwise known as a straw-man argument. My point wasn't about how I'm uncomfortable with black people. And twisting my words to make it seem like it was is known as a "dick move"...

    Star Wars' "Black Stormtrooper" to Critics: "Get Used to it"

    I... don't think that is, or if it is... should be, the main criticism for the black stormtrooper. This is supposed to be taking place 20+ years after Hitler's Germany Palpatine's Empire. No the real complaint is that Lucas already retconned all the stormtroopers as clones. Clones of that...

    Sweden Considering Sexism Labels For Video Games

    This is NOT an attempt to educate the user about the content that can be expected inside a game, like the actual rating system. This is clearly meant for shaming and exclusion. So what are they thinking... a point system? 0 points as "not sexist at all" through -500 points as "too sexist for...

    Report: Assassin's Creed: Unity Frame Rate Problems Across Consoles - Update

    That juttering, those pauses... It's so cinematic! Way too cinematic for my brain to comprehend. It's like I've been transported into that world and arrived there with brain damage.

    The Big Picture: Don't Censor Me!

    The "don't take it personally" thing is fine until SOMEONE tries to say that if I don't personally feel effected by perceived sexism in a video game... than I am the MOST susceptible to sexism. Also, yeah, I'm super angry about capitalism. Making the foundation of everything we do or even...

    Star Wars Episode VII Title Announced

    Okay that whole "no cgi" thing seems like a major knee-jerk reaction. I mean, it's okay to use some CGI to create a style or handle ONLY the things that real life can't produce. I'm glad they're just setting this after everything that happened in the EU, though, as it doesn't shit all over...

    The Big Picture: Remembering the Real Jack Thompson

    Actually, along respects of Moviebob's conclusion... Anita Sarkeesian is pretty much EXACTLY like Jack Thompson. I mean, it's not like I heard anyone say the name of Jack Thompson so I don't know where this episode came from, but now you've got me thinking. Jack only did what he did to get...

    Avengers 2 Trailer Will Debut During Next Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    As a ploy, this has utterly failed to make me want to go watch Agents of SHIELD TV. For I am a patient person, who knows that I'll eventually see the trailer anyway.

    Escape to the Movies: The Giver - Don't Bother Giving This Movie Your Time

    I'm sorry, skip what? I wasn't listening... *gets hit in the head with a filled coffee mug and falls backwards out of his chair*

    Uncivil War: Left 4 Dead - "Get To The Choppa" Challenge!

    Yathzee did, indeed, win the challenge by technicality. He died last by a slim fraction, enough to be noticeable to the people who get to see both videos. I even have a screen cap... but there's no point unless one of them calls for an instant review thing like in football (the kind you get to...

    EA Unveils Sims 4 Premium Membership

    EA: No it's cool. We don't mind being voted the worst company in America, anymore. Bring on your hate. In fact, We're thinking about piecemealling all of our games. Then we can charge for a premium service AND have a cash shop at the same time. And then, we can piecemeal the premium...

    Jimquisition: The Xbox One: A Lying Failure Machine

    Console? What are consoles? Microsoft designs an operating system, right? My PC didn't come with a kinect so I'm not sure what you're referencing here. Are you talking about those drab boxes you used to plug into TVs and they played games without the accessibility of user-made content...
