    Monsters 7.5/10 Pretty interesting movie alright. It's sort of a mix of Cloverfield and Lost in Translation, which is a strange mix indeed. The creatures and the creature devastated Mexican setting are really just a backdrop by which the characters can have an astounding adventure to change...

    Earth-Size Alien Planet at Alpha Centauri Is Closest Ever Seen

    Isn't 'alien planet' sort of a misleading term when 'planet' would work just as well? Also, haven't they discovered thousands of such planets?

    Dexter Season 7

    Is season 6 on Netflix? Frankly, I found season 5 to be a huge dive in quality and the general direction of the themes and character to be all over the place and not very compelling at all. It's pretty sad that I know Deb will catch Dexter killing from a random ass commercial for the show on...

    See, your problem is you keep taking my comments about the origin story being dull as criticism of the book in general. It's not. I think it's appropriate and works perfectly for the story. Still doesn't mean it'd make a good movie.

    Well we already covered your ignorance on point 1, so moving on I guess I must point out that I never even mentioned its quality as a comic. I said the Joker origin story (which makes up 40% part of the book and I think that's me being generous because I don't want to understate it and have my...

    But the origin story isn't particularly compelling at all, not to mention that it's deliberately undermined as possibly being untrue.

    Breaking Bad - Season 5

    While I agree that in general American teens are pretty spoiled, I think you're being a little harsh about Walter Jr. I don't remember that scene perfectly, but I don't remember getting the impression that he really felt that entitled to it. I can't really think of any other particular time when...

    "You found faults with a movie I enjoyed and expressed those findings using words that are too large." That's just getting repetitive. Look dude, I had really high hopes for TDKR too, and while it was entertaining and certainly wasn't an abomination, it was disappointing and kind of a mess...

    Breaking Bad - Season 5

    Yeah, you know that'll be over now, posters, news coverage, Jesse's gonna see it everywhere. This is exactly what the show needed, a completely unforeseeable but very possible and simple complication which, as Monkey said, will throw every character into moral conflict/crisis.

    [VIDEO] Black Mesa Source 'On A Rail' Footage Leaked

    I know, I know. I'm not really arguing about it being a dumb thing for BMS, just that Stylo's defense of it was illogical.

    [VIDEO] Black Mesa Source 'On A Rail' Footage Leaked

    "The idea is to remake the storyline used in Half Life into a new polished Source Engine version with new models, maps, soundtrack, voice acting and textures." Somewhat more, but nothing about gameplay. Not that I care or know much about BMS, my real point was this updating to realism and you...

    [VIDEO] Black Mesa Source 'On A Rail' Footage Leaked

    Frankly, I don't have a very strong opinion about it one way or the other, I was just responding to what appeared to be your reaction to Vegeta's reply to your rather silly reasoning about ironsights. If you're reacting to the world at large, fine, I'm sure there are some people overly upset...

    [VIDEO] Black Mesa Source 'On A Rail' Footage Leaked

    Hahaha. Does anybody remember when video games used to be ABOVE CRITICISM because they're being offered at a CERTAIN PRICE? I mean why can't we just SMILE AND APPLAUD like it's a shitty school play because the developers have worked JUST SO HARD ON THIS and are delivering it, again, at A...

    Do Gooders of VT.net, why do you obey your moral compass?

    I'd say it's just an interesting observation giving the generally social nature of morality, plus I think it's just taken for granted in just how large in impact (I think) it has. And yeah, I guess since I don't count the time in dog years I'm just not nearly as wise as you are yet.

    Do Gooders of VT.net, why do you obey your moral compass?

    I think it's really interesting to note how this thread about morality, which is generally seen as concerning our interactions with other people or things, or actions that directly impact other people or things, has turned somewhat inward and become self-centered in its reflections and...

    Breaking Bad - Season 5

    Okay, I was thinking about the flashforward the other day and there's a problem with this idea that it'll take place a year from this last episode. Since he has a fake ID it could not be his birthday, but I doubt that because he makes such a point of doing the bacon thing when if it was a made...

    Yeah, whenever I tell people to stop critically analyzing and thinking so hard about films, especially in a thread about the rating and discussion of films, I always anticipate people will judge me to be just so brilliant
