    Ex Machina (trailer)

    Your link broke. That's a 50 DKP minus. Here's a working link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoQuVnKhxaM So everyone is a machine? Better be more interesting than that. Getting tired of homicidal AI's. Give me the good old heuristic AI from Fiasco anytime.

    Interstellar (trailer)

    No food makes people go something something. I hope there's some kind of explanation as to why the body responsible for bringing textbooks into class would think the moonlanding was fake. Maybe when faced with disaster they've gone back to simpler, less thinky times.

    The Equalizer Trailer

    So, is this a prequel to The Book of Eli?

    A dragon has been shot in Malaysia!

    So, I guess the story does have an ending.

    GAME OF THRONES #10:The Children ACT 49 Chapter 4-2014 *Season Ending*

    This season has been hit and miss for me. Whereas in the previous three I couldn't think of a single episode that was poor or mediocre, here there were a couple that had me scratching my head. A lot of scenes just felt weird and out of place. Rushed and poorly done. That said, there were...

    Birdman (trailer)

    I'm a bit partial to these deconstructed, "more real" superhero movies. I don't if it's due to the blandness of all those Marvel superhero movies or just because I like seeing a more human approach to superhero situations. This looks like a lot of fun. I don't know anything about it or...

    That game kids are playing and is bad for their minds

    Not all schools. It's just that in many places we don't allocate the resources needed to facilitate 12 student classrooms with highly trained teachers and excellent support systems. DMMike, I don't want to make a value statement because I don't know how societies where this behavior is...

    That game kids are playing and is bad for their minds

    I think it has more to do with which parts of the brain develop and how they develop. Critical thinking and problem-solving makes different connections in the brain than taking in a constant stream of information and reacting to it instantly. I'm not making a value judgement. The latter may...

    Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (trailer)

    I guess I should have been more specific. The broken beat and electro house style commonly associated with brostep is, for my ears, inappropriate when used to score this trailer. And that's not dubstep. This is dubstep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KandVSZbZAM&feature=kp

    GAME OF THRONES #8:The Mountain and the Viper ACT 47 Chapter 4-2014

    I think he was a little out of sorts at that moment because he didn't get the confession he wanted. He's a very emotional guy. Even more so considering what they did to his sister.

    Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (trailer)

    I would just like to point out that I'm making no value judgement of the actual film. I'm just saying that this trailer has failed to get me interested. The first Sin City, I thought, was visually stunning. Delivering as much as possible with as little as necessary. I don't get that from...

    Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (trailer)

    I have no problem with black and white films. I have the entire Kurosawa collection on DVD. I also have no problem with trailers that don't show what the movie is about. This trailer looks like a first year film student marking random scenes for a trailer and then jumbling them together...

    Sin City: A Dame to Kill For (trailer)

    It takes some real skill to make a trailer look so bad I don't want to see the movie.

    GAME OF THRONES #8:The Mountain and the Viper ACT 47 Chapter 4-2014

    It's been a bit of a theme throughout the series: Being honorable gets you killed.

    GAME OF THRONES #8:The Mountain and the Viper ACT 47 Chapter 4-2014

    I don't know, bru. Flashy spear wielding fighters in the series have a 100% mortality rate.

    Godzilla

    It was pretty obvious to me. Humans had no part in this. These creatures were completely indifferent to us. They weren't evil, just terribly destructive like a tornado. We just had to get out of their way.
