    Total Recall Getting Total Remake

    Efficiency in the movie business. Remake something so that enough people will see it in order to turn a minor profit by denigrating the original material. Don't get me wrong. I love Total Recall, but I love it for the camp factor. It was a cheesy movie, but that's the whole charm! Also...

    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario Galaxy 2

    Although I can agree to the assertion that SMG 2 definitely had the feel of "bring in the new people" from the packaging, I must say that most casual players will not be getting the first 120 stars. Some of those levels are incredibly frustrating, though nothing beats the first "Luigi on Mario"...

    Why the Hate?

    I agree. I'm not upset so much about the hate that it hurts me, but more that I am disquieted by the trend.

    Why the Hate?

    I have always held that those who break people down often have something that they are deeply uncomfortable about with themselves. You know, the "one finger pointing at someone else, four fingers pointing at you" argument. I just wish that people would know when to stop on things. A bit of...

    Why the Hate?

    I have been watching a lot of things on the internet. From Youtube to this site, and everything else in between. I think (especially in the case of the Escapist), there are a lot of great things to be had on the internet for entertainment, edification, or simply something to do when we are...

    Poll: Stealing from the rich to give to the poor.

    I believe that stealing is wrong, regardless of the circumstances. However, I do also believe that people could be a bit more philanthropic, and tend to the needs of others around them once their own needs are met.

    Critical Miss: #3

    Is it completely uncool to write things with "s" as normal? Did I miss something? Aside from that, I really like this comic and have had some LOL's, which is rare for me and webcomics. Keep up the great work!!

    Pakistan Bans Facebook Over "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day"

    It's really hard to argue one way or another on this topic. Of course, at least in the U.S., freedom of speech is paramount, and should not be hindered. (Do keep in mind that freedom of speech means everyone can say what they want, regardless of whether you like it or not.) However, in the first...

    Question of the Day, May 12, 2010

    I used to play WOW a lot more a year ago, but I only really played so that I could chat with my co-workers while I was backstabbing stuff

    These Are the Actual Pokemon Black & White Starters

    I'm pretty psyched for the fire pig. Would be a lot better than the last pig-themed Pokemon: Spoink... It's cute, but even its evolution is mediocre at best.
