    Another "what movie is this" question

    Genius. Oreo or chocolate chip?

    Another "what movie is this" question

    My brother doesn't believe in the power of the HTF. He remembers a movie, it might have been black and white, likely from the 50's or 60's. But what he remembers is this: There was a giant flaming head of Satan or some other demonic force and the hero destroyed it with the arm of a crane...

    South Park Season 11

    I still can not stop laughing about that episode, especially Cartman's letter, where he actually wrote out "Donkey boner!" at the end of it.

    Go Team Venture! -- Season Two

    The Season 2 set wasn't in production order so much as it was corrected from the broadcast order. Two episodes accidentally got switched I think when it was originally broadcast. All that matters is that the DVD is in the correct order, and it's best to watch it that way.

    Most Wanted Games for 2007

    I was up until 4:30AM playing Bioshock last night. Awesome. Totally immersive. Exciting. Fun. Beautiful environments. I'd enter a room and just spend time looking around at everything. I finally got to take on my first Big Daddy (I told myself no quitting until I face off with one) and it was...

    The Sopranos Season 6, Part II - April 2007

    Personally, I thought it sucked. I mean, really, isn't the whole ambiguous, cut-to-black make-up-your-own-ending thing a cliche in itself by now? I feel ripped off and I don't care about making my own ending. If I wanted to do that I'd be writing my own damn show. I've given this show a whole...

    The Sopranos Season 6, Part II - April 2007

    Exactly. The beacon. That opens up a whole bunch of possibilities for me on where this is all headed.

    Discovery HD Theater: Planet Earth

    Watched it last night and watching again tonight via DVR. If you have Discovery HD and are not watching this, you are seriously missing out. I'm looking forward to seeing it weekly for the next few Sundays.

    Most Wanted Games for 2007

    It took me a while to respond to this because I wasn't sure of my fifth but after I just saw the new trailer on Live, it goes: 1. Halo 3 2. Bioshock 3. Assasin's Creed 4. GTA IV 5. and now, Darkness!

    Black Sheep

    "Moronic horror-comedy"? Sounds good to me! The fact that it's being compared to early Peter Jackson (and with gory effects by Weta) makes me take notice. Is it coming out in the States?

    South Park Season 11

    It's BACK!! New episodes start this Wednesday night at 10! Here's the blurb from southparkstudios.com. Oooh! Controversy! Midgets everywhere will be pissed!

    Official Oscar Nominations and Discussion Thread

    Borat for best adapted screenplay? I thought the movie was hilarious, but was there even a script?!! Oh that's right, they give it Best Adapted because it was popular and they had to give it something, but they can't give it one of the "big" ones, no sir. Further proof that the Acadamy...

    Bioshock...wow

    I have this on my list of must-have titles for 2007, along with Halo 3 (duh!), GTA4 and Assassin's Creed. I love the idea that there's many different ways you can go about dealing with the enemies in the game. I've never played System Shock, but this looks like a totally original type of game to...

    Great Video Game Moments

    Gotta add now, the "Roadie run" in Gears of War. I had to see that "embedded journalist" angle for myself. Too cool! And the rest of the game too. Co-op campaign ruled! Gonna play me some multiplayer tonight. Tag: Markusschmarkus

    Lets talk Gears Of War

    No difference. It happened to me while playing online. Not a big deal, but I had to tell my friend not to venture out of the completed area until I could find stray ammo.

    South Park Season 10

    Just watched tonight after my DVR didn't record last night and this episode turned out great! I was a little concerned after the first part when they reveal a kid has cancer that such a downer subject would ruin the episode, but then after considering what they were going for, it had me...

    Lets talk Gears Of War

    I joined my friend's game, and when I went back to my own it started where I had left off when I went to join him. His game, after going back to it, remained where we both left off. Nice review, by the way. I love the reload slider. It's like a little mini-game in the middle of a battle. Like...

    Lets talk Gears Of War

    I played it for the first time last night and I can tell you that it is DEFINITELY worth the hype. I joined up to a friend's game for co-op (nice how you can invite a friend to join into your single-player game; no backing out to menus or separate co-op experience) and after playing for only...

    Harvey Birdman [volume 2]

    I'm gonna get this soon myself, although I balked at the almost 30 dollar price tag today. Maybe I can find it for less around X-mas. One question though, does this contain the Sebben & Sebben orientation video episode? That one was the best.

    South Park Season 10

    I noticed during the Buck Rogers opening that the spinning Cartman seemed to be a little off, like it would move off-center and move back, like it was a sloppy effect. Anybody else notice? And I might be crazy but it seems like that it was animated that way to be exactly mimicking the same...

    Post when you bought your XBox360 and if it is has broken down or not

    Got mine in March, manufactured 1/22/06. In late September (after I got Saints Row, hmmmm...) it started freezing up. Soon it would freeze when just playing music using the dashboard. It went down for good (red lights of death) September 30th and I called MS that day. I got the coffin in...

    Great Video Game Moments

    Ha! I can still hum that song. It had the coolest bassline! I had the game on the old Atari 5200 of all things. Then one day it broke. Speaking of game music, I remember getting Pitfall II for the Atari 2600 and hearing that music for the first time. That had to be the most sophisticated...

    South Park Season 10

    I like how they basically refer to the Steve Irwin thing being too soon, then just totally go all the way with it. "But I thought we were FRIENDS!!"

    South Park Season 10

    I had to rewind the whole third act because I couldn't stop laughing at the sight of Beth a.k.a. Dawg's Bitch. Here it is a day later, and I'm still laughing just picturing her, short and squat, waddling along with boobs up to her eyes and her little arms sticking out the sides, like she was...

    X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

    Yeah, he's basically there to give some exposition and then get out of the way.

    It's the voices. They sound like gay Napoleon Dynamites.

    South Park Season 10

    I liked it. I liked the Hardley boys and the chocolate hot dog in the urinal. Both were irreverent, and added the laughs. What got me really laughing was all the 9/11 stuff. No hidden meanings there, I think it was pretty cut-and-dry. They say people that believe that a massive coverup...

    South Park Season 10

    Well, it's known that Matt and Trey are gamers, so I don't think it was a total knock, just a knock on those who take it way too seriously. And apparently, Blizzard was contacted by them and they loved the idea and sent over a team to set it up under Trey's direction. I was afraid after...

    I liked the end of the montage, when Super-Size Cartman raises his fist.
