    What is the pettiest reason you wouldn't go out with someone or cause you to break up with someone?

    This is a more recent peeve of mine, because of how a family member did this too me, but I'm turned off by people who love their pets too much. By 'too much', I mean things like not considering it a problem that the pet does somethings destructive to personal property, or ignores bad behavior...

    Microsoft Cancels Fable Legends, Proposes Closure of Lionhead Studios

    This makes me kind of sad. I always thought the Fable games were at least interesting to play, despite the flaws each of them had. I even enjoyed the third one. I've been interested in Black and White, but have never given it a try yet. I've always kinda thought of them kind of like Bethesda, in...

    Fan base insanity

    There are some key words you said here. "People I work with, my classmates, and my friends." I'm going to imagine that most of the people who gave you the 'just go away' reaction are people you didn't know very well. Experience has taught me that you're only allowed to make jokes like that once...

    Fan base insanity

    James Earl Jones was on a talk show once (Gayle King, I think?), and he said he loves meeting people who've never watched Star Wars, to the point where he now more often gives a chance to people he's never heard of. This lead to Gayle King telling him to recite the lyrics from a song by Justin...

    Unpopular movie tastes

    As an animation nerd, I must correct you in that Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro was NOT made by Ghibli. Miyazaki and Takahata didn't start Ghibli until after that movie was released. The movie was made by TMS, the studio that has the official Lupin III license. Miyazaki and Takahata got started...

    You must create the biggest shitstorm the forums have ever seen, what do you do?

    "EA to purchase SEGA, plans to cancel Shenmue 3 development" "Five Nights at Freddy's 5 launches in two weeks" "Half Life 3 confirmed Android/iOS exclusive" "Final Fantasy VII remake cancelled due to 'lack of fan interest', says CEO" "Bethesda bans all mods, threatens DMCAs against modders"...

    The Last Guardian Officially Revealed (Again)

    Whether or not it "lives up to expectations" is always an irrelevant concern to me. Everything out there has the potential to be either crap or gold, so I just go in with as minimal expectations that I can so as not to judge it before it releases. That said, I predict it to be a great experience...

    United Kingdom Privilege (NSFW)

    You know, I, an American, have wondered for a while why it seems that only Americans tend to be SJWs, or at least the most offended at things. I think I know why now, or a least a theory. I think its all backlash against the "Culturally Ignorant/Insensitive American" stereotype. Make no...

    Vacation tips for England

    They're not "hidden" extras, neither is anyone trying to "deceive" you, since we all know about state taxes here. Not every State has a state tax, and those that do are different from one another. If you go grocery shopping in a State with a tax, the cashier will ring up all your items, and then...

    PDI Dreamworks shutting down Redwood animation studio, approx 500 laid off

    http://www.cartoonbrew.com/business/breaking-dreamworks-animation-will-shut-down-pdidreamworks-studio-over-500-jobs-will-be-eliminated-108161.html As a big animation fan, I was shocked to see this news. I did think it was rather crazy that Dreamworks released three full-length feature...

    Tekken 7 Director Reveals New Character, Clarifies "Lucky Chloe" Situation

    My objection to Lucky Chloe wasn't in that she was dumb or too silly. I mean, I do think she's dumb, but that's never stopped me from enjoying several fighting games before. Or just many games, in general. It also wasn't that she was 'stereotypical'. No, stereotypical is not the right word to...

    Poll: Five Nights at Freddy's - Do you actually find it scary?

    For a few reasons, I have to say 'no'. I mean, I think it's a very interesting and entertaining game, but I feel that the things that make it creepy or scary lose their edge quickly enough. I myself do not find animatronics or puppets scary. I don't find many things approaching the uncanny...

    Most popular British TV show in the US, and why?

    Depends on who you mean by 'they', since I can tell you that if the eternally paranoid studio higher-ups DID force Americanization onto the films, we would be right up there with the Brits in anger, especially since the books had become very popular here. They became popular in part due to the...

    What would you do if you controlled a franchise you liked?

    Well first thing I would do is acquire Jak and Daxter, release Jak X, Daxter, and Lost Frontier in an HD compilation disc, going back and fixing that destructive autosave glitch in Jak X, and then WORK ON A MOTHERF***ING CONCLUSION ALREADY!!! Another thing I would have would be new Jet Set...

    An animated apocalyptic film

    Since you got me so curious, I've been trying to scan every source that I can. I'm a big animation fan, and to hear something like this has somehow slipped under my radar is making me want to find it. Just a few more questions, since you're not sure that it's feature length, could it have...
