    Fringe

    I think it's getting gradually more even in it's quality and slowly becoming better, but I'll have to see if it sustains that pattern. Also, I really doubt that getting that guy out of prison was really the entire point, more likely just a convenient test.

    Massachusetts Marijuana Law

    Strictly speaking as someone who has spent a good chunk of my life hanging out with people who smoke marijuana, although not a user myself, I have to point out how correct this is. The scale of the marijuana trade is amazing, and it's not very difficult to obtain it anywhere in the entire...

    Image Dump VI (POST YOUR RANDOM IMAGES HERE)

    Yeah, some of it's probably supposed to be quotations in the language of the Old Ones, while the germanic or latin ones may be "quotes" from the Book of Eibon. But, as a hardcore Lovecraft nerd, I can say that the whole "Zalgo" thing isn't from Lovecraft's original Cthulhu Mythos.

    Lost: Season 5

    Because it's required by law to be spelled "Cheese Shoppe."

    Operation Northwood: the US government plan to bomb american targets in 1962

    I think it's more that they people who care about this sort of stuff have written off that period of time from a moral standpoint. McCarthyism may have died down, but the insanity of something like the Bay of Pigs already proved that some of the people running the show were pretty bonkers.

    Operation Northwood: the US government plan to bomb american targets in 1962

    I'm kinda suspicious that this might have been in a cabinet somewhere filed between a plan to use guinea pigs as mobile landmines and a plan to take down Castro with a rocket powered jet-ski.

    fallen behind on b-movies

    While it's apparently not as bad, Starship Troopers 3 would probably qualify too.

    fallen behind on b-movies

    This is probably the dumbest thing ever to have an argument over, but I'll point out that the definition of B movie has changed A LOT over time. It used to just be the bottom movie on a double feature, but it's since picked up a bunch of different connotations. Some entire genres picked up the...

    fallen behind on b-movies

    Suppose it depends how much time you spend around snotty film majors. How about Undead? Its....interesting. Half funny, half amazingly stupid.

    The Fallout 3 Thread

    Yeah, I've never seen any of the stuff anyone is talking about on this page.

    fallen behind on b-movies

    Kind of what I was asking in my first post. Some people say "B movie" and mean something MST3K-level, but others say "B-movie" and mean movies that are a little below mainstream and that are just generally silly, dorky, stupid, or even just odd. There's this weird and muddled hierarchy to...

    How far back were you to date? Would you know Stargate (the movie)? Or something more recent like the Island or the Blade films?

    The Fallout 3 Thread

    Haha, I stumbled into that and died, but then just navigated around and forgot about it. :D

    2012 (aka bullshit)

    Hell, I think Bay is an artist compared to Emmerich. Bay just aims really low in what he shoots for with his movies, whereas Emmerich is just trying to do the same sort of stuff and comes off as being inept.

    fallen behind on b-movies

    Just how B? Because you could go all the way and I'd suggest going through Roland Emmerich's catalog (ID4, Day After Tomorrow, 10,000BC) or if you're just looking for movies with B sensibilities I'd suggest Sky Captain, Hellboy, Sahara, and Hot Fuzz.

    This Is The Fallout 3 Thread

    Yeah, but then there's plenty of people like me that think that statement is bizarre and insane, having played the final product. :D I would never argue that they aren't similar, but I think they've made huge progress in how they construct the game world and structure quests.

    This Is The Fallout 3 Thread

    Yeah, if I could keep going after finishing the game I'd want to see the consequences of my actions at the end of the game. Otherwise it would probably just undermine it for me.

    Obama's First Weekly YouTube Address

    I'm relatively impressed. Obviously nothing too amazing in there (he's not even in office yet), but it was short, straight forward, and to the point.

    Photos of new Star Trek film

    It sure as hell looks like a very different take on Star Trek. Whether that's for better or worse will depend on the actual film's merits.
