FWIW, that particular trailer was posted to YouTube by a user named SonyPictures, so I think that one's good. Also, I've seen lots of trailers posted by the film company. Anecdotally, it seems that many studios provide both options for their trailers. Which makes sense since trailers are just...

So you've double checked that the games you want aren't also on broadcast stations? Because if they are, you could get an antenna and watch them that way. I have rabbit ears and an HDTV in one room and it works o.k. The local stations come in really well, but the further ones have their off...

My spouse and I saw Mirror Mirror when it opened this Friday. It was so cute! I loved it! The prince, who played the twins in The Social Network, was funny (and cute) and the Lily Collins, who played Snow White, was hot! Great date night movie! Did you see it? What did you think of it? Or are...

Also, now that you mention it, there's the whole "blunt force trauma" thing.

World War Z. So far, it's awesome.

It wasn't shot in IMAX either. I got burned two ways. Oh well.

Another way to go would have been to say John Carter of Mars directed by Oscar winning director Andrew Stanton and written by Pulitzer Prize winning author Michael Chabon. I think that would have done well too.

First, if you're going to ask these question based on TV shows you watch, will you at least take requests? (Request: Fawlty Towers.) This was going to be my point. Public broadcast of the evidence has the added benefit of notifying good cops who can do something, and motivating them to act...

I never thought you would. Now I really want you to watch Rainbow Bright!. :lol:

First, thing's first. Janx, have you thought about watching My Little Pony or Rainbow Bright instead? I think all these one-hour action shows are starting to affect you. Now, a lot of good stuff has been said. But I'd like to add/expand on a few reasons. First reason is certainty. If the...

After the forward by ERB, the first two sentences of Chapter 1 are: This can be an easy thing to forget because ERB never, ever, touches on it again in the whole of the book. Or the next one. Or the one after. It's like plot insurance. It's there in case anyone complains about Carter hanging out...

Dude, I told you to hire that hippie to do all your research at the university library. But you just had to use WebCrawler didn't you? :lol:

One reason you may want to have multiple contingencies is that, once you've actually committed a major felony like robbing a bank, federal law enforcement has a tendency to get upset. In the U.S. today, law enforcement is fairly pro-active in trying to prevent crimes from happening. Security...

Not owned as anyones copyright. I don't know if he's creating his own characters now or not, though it wouldn't surprise me if he was.

Good question. First, it's DC's business model. They own characters and publish comic books about them. No one questions it when they put out a Zartarra comic. Second, Watchman was already based on existing characters. DC asked Moore to write a comic based on the Charlton characters. DC...

Hmmm....haven't checked out this thread in a while. I wonder what's going on. I feel a strange urge to click on it. Oh, hey. I've been summoned. Cool. Charges of fanboyism in the tech field are kind of strange. In pop culture, it's easy. When someone says something like: "Why did you read X...

Character arc inversion I gotta say I agree with you. It's weird that they removed the most complex part of the plot only to replace it with something else in the name of making it more complex. By having Tars Tarkas be Jedakk of the Tharks from the beginning, they inverted his character arc...

IIRC Stanton said that they were using material from the first three books. Princess Gods and Warlord form a kind of trilogy where the first book is a stand alone story with a sequel hook, but the next two books are clearly a single, continuous, story. The first three were also written fairly...

I'm making a special trip up to San Francisco to see it. Normally, I just watch IMAX and 3D movies in 2D on regular screens, but SF has an IMAX screen from the old days which are more square and really do occupy your field of vision. Since I expect scenery porn, I think the larger screen might...

My own experience with LotR is more complex. I got into D&D in the mid-90s when I was in the Navy and wanted to read LotR because I was given to believe that it's contents reflected the background info in AD&D books. I started with The Hobbit, and I enjoyed it. When I got to Fellowship, however...
