    Who's pumped for Pacific Rim?

    We don't all have a certain type of pattern recognizing brain to appreciate this movie. Like Joon Kim wrote in the comments section of the article you linked to, the visual cues aren't storytelling, they're world building cues. Reading that article is like reading the comments on Prometheus...

    So, SUPERMAN/BATMAN movie? (SDCC)

    Nerds be wildin'. So who do you reckon is gonna play Batman if Bale isn't up for it? Does Val Kilmer fit in the suit? I always thought Batman was physically bigger than Bale. Like 1,95 meter heavyweight boxer big. But I get that impression from the cartoons I think. Ultimately the person...

    World War Z

    The theater says it's not up to them but the choice of the distributors.

    Who's pumped for Pacific Rim?

    Maybe I'm a bit jaded from watching a large amount of movies but I thought it was boring. Completely uninteresting characters which made the action a bit pointless. Hollywood is an American export so you're gonna have American heroes saving the world. Do foreigners complain that Indian movies...

    World War Z

    I don't get the criticism of people who say it's unjust that the movie is very unlike the book in many respects, that the movie somehow tricks you. If by now you haven't figured out that businesses which develop movies use less than virtuous means to sell their product you're gonna continue to...

    British and Irish Lion tour Australia

    Who would you consider good enough given the current Lions set-up? Visser? He's a defensive nightmare. The only one I can think of is Johnny Beattie but he's going up against Faletau, Heaslip and Sean O'Brien. I was a bit disappointed not to see Gray or Hogg in there today but given the...

    British and Irish Lion tour Australia

    Yeah, I think 40 years since they lost to a provincial side in Australia. Root for the Lions.

    British and Irish Lion tour Australia

    First blood to the Lions! It was quite a thrilling game. Some great individual pieces of brilliance with Foloa showing great running. I do feel a little bad for the Wallabies after losing four players to injury, three of which possible concussions. If they are deemed severe enough, they'll...

    D&D 5E (2014) The new Bless

    Has anyone had a chance to playtest it? We've had two sessions since it came out but haven't had any combats.

    D&D 5E (2014) The new Bless

    Our group has no problems with playtesting it. It just seems like a must have during every combat because it adds +d4 to every attack and saving throw for ten minutes for every party member. Were players complaining that they missed a lot of attacks and saves leading to this change?

    British and Irish Lion tour Australia

    Is anyone following the Lions' tour down under? Barring today's game against the Brumbies, I've been impressed with some of the combinations played. So far my favorite game was the one against the Reds, with Quade Cooper dictating a thrilling fast paced game against the tourists. What do you...

    D&D 5E (2014) The new Bless

    Is this a single use thing or do you use on every attack and saving throw in the duration?

    Game of Thrones Season 3 Finale "Mhysa" (Warning for leaked spoilers!)

    Those freed slaves remind me of something: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_A61O1u5jE Sillyness aside, the small council scene was epic. From beginning to end, absolutely awesome.

    Game of Thrones 3.9 "The Rains of Castamere" (spoiler alert)

    All of this because Bran didn't listen to his mother.

    What if the planets were in the same position as our moon?

    It'll be a lot easier to attack Mars, that's for sure.

    Prometheus

    Cameron did reject it. He was approached to make a prequel and he wanted to do it. But he said that if you're going to make Aliens vs. Predators and water down the franchise I want nothing more to do with it. They did, so he didn't. From what I gather, the original script was quite good and...

    Iron Man 3 - Spoilers

    I actively turn off my brain when watching these types of movies so plot holes and physics no-no's I can accept. As an action popcorn flick, I thought Oblivion did a considerably better job than Iron Man 3. It was sleek and exciting and the drones were brutally awesome.
