    Claims you've never actually heard spoken

    Yeah, but you're a wrestling-manic, dual guitar wielding lawyer. He saw you talking in your sleep about corporate law to the tune of Another One Bites the Dust and he ran away most rickety.

    Preparedness for a home invasion

    I'm with Morrus on this one. Even when I lived in Minnesota, it was never on my mind. In fact, our doors were always unlocked. Here in the Netherlands, it just doesn't happen often enough to warrant my time worrying about it. I couldn't find the statistics on home invasions specifically...

    New Law in California

    The last couple of pages were pretty fun to read, though.

    The Chronicles of Narcissist

    He's always thirsty. You can't have a president who can't go without water for 30 minutes.

    The Chronicles of Narcissist

    With his deportation as the sole crew member of the first manned mission to Mars. With a slingshot. That is my professional opinion.

    GAME OF THRONES #10:Mother's Mercy ACT12 /2015-Season Finale

    Ah man, that Hardhome battle and those CGI dragons cost a lot of money. We're gonna have to cut costs somewhere. Hey, it's the three S's. Selyse, Shireen and Stannis, we've got some good news. You're all gonna meet the Lord of Light. Yeah, exciting, isn't it. But, it's more of an abstract...

    Travelling through a wormhole in space

    I always imagined them as not having a visual representation. Like one moment you're in galaxy A and then you move a bit forward and you're in galaxy B. Or walking into a cave system on one planet and exiting on another planet in a different part of the universe. Of course, I have nothing to...

    GAME OF THRONES #9:The Dance of Dragons ACT11 /2015

    Quite a brutal episode but more for what happened to Stannis' daughter than the dragon. The fighting in Game of Thrones is hit and miss for me. Last week's against the White Walkers was awesome squared. This one was a little underwhelming. Maybe because it was set during the day. Felt less...

    The Martian

    I'm a bit cautious with this one. I've been a little disappointed with Ridley's last bunch of films. I reckon I'll still watch it if it's showing anywhere in non-3D. For the visuals. And Chastain.

    GAME OF THRONES #7:The Gift ACT 9 /2015

    With the last couple of seasons, I find that the seasons starts off slow and incoherent but get better as it progresses. Same for this one. The first four episodes, barring some cool scenes, were a little off. Maybe it's because they can't rely on George's material as much as before and have...

    GAME OF THRONES #7:The Gift ACT 9 /2015

    Ha, Cersei, idiot.

    GAME OF THRONES #6:Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken ACT 8 /2015

    I don't quite understand what Cersei is trying to do. I take it she's not as smart as she thinks she is, as Tyrion and others have made clear in the past but I can't see any way this can end well. I mean, to allow the creation of an armed force with the mandate that can challenge your power...

    GAME OF THRONES #2:The House of Black and White ACT 51 /2015

    I haven't seen the leaked episodes. I didn't feel like waiting a month. The producers said they would make wholesale changes to all the things. I'm only up to book three so I don't have really have a horse in this race. For me, whenever a book is ported to the screen, that's a new universe...

    GAME OF THRONES #2:The House of Black and White ACT 51 /2015

    Then prepare for more disappointment if you continue to compare the two different media. The producers have already stated that they're taking a radically different take on the stories and characters. From now on you have two different universes; A Song of Ice and Fire, the book series and...

    Alien as made by Neill Blomkamp

    In the article he says he had some downtime when post-production was well underway. With a lot of CGI that could be a year long process as it was in this case. He'll have had plenty of time on his hands.

    Alien as made by Neill Blomkamp

    It does look a little silly. Maybe all the life support is in the back. Remember, this is just concept art he was working on during his downtime on the Chappie production. If it goes through, it'll likely look different.

    Alien as made by Neill Blomkamp

    It's an adaptation of the Space Jockey helmet. It would make sense if Weyland Yutani have been reverse-engineering Xeno artifacts and made their gear based on alien tech.

    Alien as made by Neill Blomkamp

    So we might see a new Alien that ignores the Prometheus expansion and Alien 3 and Resurrection. I'm cautiously optimistic. I've liked everything Blomkamp has done so far but I was so terribly disappointed by Prometheus that I'm completely jaded and wary of new forays into the Alien universe...

    Mods for Skyrim

    I picked up Skyrim about a year ago and want to start playing it now. I want to mod it graphically before I began but the amount of mods out there is a bit daunting. Does anyone know which mods I should start out with?
