    No Videogames for Trapped Chilean Miners

    I don't think you've ever stuck a hardcore gamer inside of a mine, I am not entirely serious, but I wouldn't discredit the idea of someone possibly sticking themselves inside of a corner and not coming out. Secondly, they are not forcing them to stick together, they are encouraging it through...

    No Videogames for Trapped Chilean Miners

    I think that controlling what the miners watch, while it can come as morally iffy, is something of a good idea. To be devil's advocate, I assume that being stuck in a mine, in and of itself, would be a depressing venture. The last thing they probably need is something that will lower their...

    Opinion on the Video Game Voters Network?

    My friend presented a few arguments against them, arguments that I think are actually reasonable to consider. His over-arching argument was that the organization (an astro-turf organization created by the ESA), was functioning under the 'guise as something of a populist movement. Transforming...

    Escape to the Movies: Machete

    Trust me, you made valid points. Though you could also return the humanitarian angle onto the people who decided to risk the trauma of deportation onto their children or other family members and still immigrate here illegally. While many would hate to consider this, there can be a situation...

    Escape to the Movies: Machete

    (Sorry to double post). My issue with the idea of legalizing citizens who have been here for an period of time is that it encourages a squatting mentality. Secondly, there's a reason why there is such a thing as illegal immigration, and no, it isn't because all politicians who support border...

    Escape to the Movies: Machete

    I am curious to be honest. I really want to see if they pull this 'message' off properly or coat it with icky layers of pretentious ooze in the way Hollywood writers have become notorious for. We'll see I suppose.

    Poll: Squeaks Reviews Iron Man 2

    Has there been a better casting choice than deciding to cast Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, a.k.a. Iron Man? To be fair, I've never read much into the Iron Man series so I wouldn't be able to vouch for how closely he resembles the Tony Stark of that medium, but just as Heath Ledger took the...

    The Difference Between Acting and Adam Sandler

    No, but again, applied I.Q. and documented I.Q., a person's abilities is only gauged based upon how well and how often he uses them. So even if he can do it if he chooses not to (and forgetting all this typecast crap, he can choose, then he'll be judged it. Think of it like a report card, even...

    The Difference Between Acting and Adam Sandler

    Being a hater is completely justified if you are hating against those who simply wish to add to the collective idiocy of society. People included in that list are those who accuse others of being haters for making perfectly valid points.

    The Difference Between Acting and Adam Sandler

    I'll be sure to look at Adam Sandler's more recent work, many people are bringing it up so now I feel that I must. If he is indeed doing so then I will retract my statement once he proves that he can continue this streak and not fall into his same old comfort zone.
