He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Shyamalan only was responsible for "Devil" in that he wrote a story which was then adapted by another person and then it was directed by yet another person. So
Pretty much every one of his "twist" movies have been directed by him.
Also "After Earth" seems more a project for Jaden Smith with Will Smith acting as mentor.

Yeah, see, the Very Serious Old White Guys are getting tired of all this fantasy happening.
It's all Lord of the Rings' fault. Since that came out, fantasy in cinema is getting a bigger presence in the mainstream. I.e., a presence.
So now they're going to try to bring Sci-fi into style, and then go back to making Very Serious Movies about a poverty-stricken mentally disabled black girl from Civil-War-Era South being time-travelled to Nazi Germany and how the golden-hearted-yet-bulldog-faced matron of the prison camp saves her.

After Earth looks pretty good to me, actually. I've always been a fan of Will Smith and his brood.

I'm as excited about After Earth (Will Smith/Jaden Smith) as I feel that I should be since I like Will Smith in most everything he does, and it looks like Final Fantasy meets Avatar, two movies I liked... but I'm concerned for a lack of plot combined with Shyamalan's involvement.
Now Oblivion (Tom Cruise/Morgan Freeman)... meh, maybe. (Final Fantasy meets The Matrix?)
But I have zero desire to see Power Rangers Pacific Rim (mechas). Something's up with my nerd brain ruining my ability to process fun, as I cannot enjoy seeing giant mechas because I cannot generate the suspension of disbelief necessary to ever think that giant mechas are a good idea to battle giant monsters. Now if they had people in person-sized power armor beating on giant monsters, that would be cool. But no, this appears to be a thinly veiled Power Rangers reboot.
Movies I am looking forward to...
Star Trek- Into Darkness
Iron Man 3
Oz: The Great and Powerful
World War Z
John Dies at the End
Epic
and maybe Superman- Man of Steel.

Is this Oblivion movie with Tommy based on the TES game, or does it just share the name?
'Cos Oblivion (the game) was okay, but Tommy sucks, and the two would not go together.
And as for the news of the Star Trek movie... FUCK YEAH!

I've heard that there's another Star Trek movie because Sherlock was delayed because of it. But even then, it didn't click until just now that there's another Star Trek movie! Like with Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto and everything.
I've never really cared for Star Trek, but I loved the reboot.

It's not merely a Power Rangers homage, it's a pastiche of every single giant robot anime from 1956 (Tetsujin 28-go) to 1995 (Neon Genesis Evangelion). Power Rangers is certainly on the list of influences, but so are dozens of other shows.
Its choice of serious action Bayesque explodiness for tone instead of the tongue-in-cheek self awareness of Megas XLR is questionable, but probably sets it up to play better for mainstream audiences and worse for nerd audiences.
"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."
Doh, I went and forgot this was the youtube link thread, so I went back and added the youtube links to the trailers for all deez movies. Even Pacific Rangers.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.
When I went to go see The Hobbit, they showed everyone in the theatre about nine minutes' worth of footage from the new one. Benedict's character only has about two lines, and most of it is just Adventure and Danger, but it's still pretty cool.Maj wrote:I've heard that there's another Star Trek movie because Sherlock was delayed because of it.

Im young and a newb and know everything about gaming and gaming markets
i jsut want to slap this fucker. he thinks he understands pricing and such but 2 major points:
1. when GW set out to crush online shops for selling things, it hit eBay also, and that is illegal. you cannot deny the right for someone to sell their tangible personal property, whether it is painted well, painted poorly, or brand-new.
2. GW has hidden price fixes that prevents retailers with competing too heavily with GW stores so GW can offer a higher price and not lose sales.
there is a limit to the %-off MSRP GW will allow or they will even not allow Alliance or Diamond to sell to a B&M store. if these distributors or resellers sell to a B&M offering "good" discounts, then the distributor loses access to GW merchandise to sell.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... this guy doesnt have all the info, and doesnt understand the illegality as well as legal muscling and hustling GW does. nothing in the law prevents GW from selling to anyone but the end-user, the consumer. that is their right, but they cannot stop people from selling something they own, and an online store has bought this merchandise and "predatory pricing" such as Amazon has been accused of is the KEY to capitalism. the one with the best product FOR THE BEST PRICE, gets the business and the profits.
he really doesnt understand all what he is talking about, and why GW is trying to control everything, they learned from the LW way when D&D and GW were fighting each other. GW to keep the wargaming market alive, and D&D for trying to gain those people as customers.
will GW cease to exist? no. but the number of players will continue to dwindle even in the tech-age of online buying.
secret for anyone. nothing stops you from buying ONE set from GW, and manufacturing your own minis for personal use with either loctite epoxy or green stuff, or carving out of wood to use to play with. there is no law stating you have to use the money provided with Monopoly, you can use pencil and paper or a spreadsheet or phone app to keep track if you want. just dont sell your creations en-masse, and enjoy using them all you want for your own games, or even tournaments where they allow non-GW pieces such as MOST figure/vehicle mods are.

Pastor Terry Jones tries to "send a message to Muslims," is met with a musical number
Terry Jones was the fucktard who wanted to burn a quran a year or so back. This time he stood up in Times Square, preaching about how "Islam is a religion of bondage (ed. note: so's christianity), a religion of lies and deception (ditto christianity), and is a religion that promotes violence" (three for three)
The people of New York responded by calling him out. Then, one man pulled up the lyrics to Love is All You Need, and started singing.
