Damn Bob, tell us how you really feel. It's a shame. I had hopes for Green Lantern, even through the casting announcements and the gimmicky costume nonsense. Oh well, at least there's Thor and (hopefully) Captain America to balance things out.

Thought it was good, but not great, certainly not Dark Knight-tier. Found the tone and narrative to be really rushed and unfocused in the first half, but things improved vastly when it tightened up in the second. The villains of the Hellfire Club were a real weak point. I still have no idea...

Saw this back in April when premiered in the UK. It's still easily the funniest movie I've seen all year. Thanks for reviewing something a little more obscure/foreign, Bob.

"C'est ma voiture rouge." Just imagine it with a really obnoxious québécoise accent.

That bit where he catches the artillery shell mid-air and fires it back? I literally screamed, "Holy shit" at my computer.

While it could be argued that the writer for GayGamer.net overreacted, the fact that this guy is using "gay" as a pejorative term is equally offensive. Anyone who doesn't understand why, may I direct you to Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgSD7jb-7x4

Yahtzee, you do know that Arabs and Persians are not the same thing right? I mean it's right there in the fucking title, man.

So it doesn't suck? Well that's nice to know, I might go see when I have a free minute. And agreed, it would've been nice to see some middle-eastern actors in the main roles, but I doubt it'll be too distracting. It's not exactly a character-orientated flim.

It's a shame, I LOVED Dreamworks back when they were still doing 2D stuff (Road to El Dorado, Prince of Egypt), but they've never managed to work the same magic with CGI (their best effort so far being How to Train Your Dragon, which was good, but not great).

Aw dang, here I was holding out hope that it would be good.

There's no way I could possibly narrow down my favourites to one. So, my list, again in no particular order: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Children of Men Fight Club Princess Mononoke In Bruges Pan's Labyrinth End of Evangelion Iron Man Serenity I Am Legend I'll end it there, 'cause I...

Assassin's Creed: Crusade Era Ninja Okami: Sumi-e Style Masterpiece Portal: Lost The Cake Bioshock: Freaky Underwater Dsytopia

I second Rusk; never full-blown wept, but the entire end scene of Shadow of the Colossus (plus Argo plummeting to his untimely doom) certainly had my face looking like D:

Wasn't really a problem of technical specs; I play all my PC games on a laptop (only computer I have), so it can turn bad sometimes if things get heavy but mostly BioShock ran fine. But I bought it on PC because it wasn't on PS3 and everyone and their mum was telling me I had to play it. I...

I'm not quite sure what he's larking on about. On campus it's the most common thing in the world for a group of guys to play a couple rounds of Halo/Counterstrike/what have you after coming in off the rugby pitch. Sure, these people aren't really what I'd label "gamers", but they certainly not...
