Figure I ought to write something here. Years and years ago, this forum occupied quite a lot of my free time. I, like almost everyone, became inactive a long time ago, but I was hoping that a Half-Life sequel would breathe new life into this once-great community. Now it seems like that will...
Haven't checked into this ****ing ghost town of a forum in a long time, but I'd like to shake things up by starting a discussion on True Detective. It's an amazing show on HBO, top quality. Anyone seen it?
God, reading this thread is damn emotional. I only check in here twice a year or so these days. But shit...
I was 15 when I joined here, I'm about to turn 25 now. So many damn hours spend here during the formative years of my life. I'd like to think it had some effect on me... Seeing all these...
And who are you, the proud lord said,
that I must bow so low?
Only a cat of a different coat,
that's all the truth I know.
In a coat of gold or a coat of red,
a lion still has claws,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke,
that...
Very weak finale. As usual the action sequences are horribly amateurish. The two people in the prison fire on 30 or so people right in front of them, and yet not a single one is hit? Then later, the Governor is gunning down his own people, all of whom are armed, and no one thinks to fire back...
I agree. It's a good show, but no where nearly as good as its fans claim. It's rated as the sixth best TV show on all time on IMDb, and that's just silly.
What the hell is wrong with these guys? Six ****ing years since the last HL title, and not a single ****ing word on the next product. No promotional material, no revealing interviews, no hints of what to come. Not a single ****ing thing to keep the buzz up on the continuation of the HL saga...
I haven't read the comics, but I assume that the Governor had the soldiers killed because they would be an alternative source of power at the camp, who could threaten his authority. They probably outnumber his armed gang, and in any case were better trained, so they could probably launch a coup...
If they had bothered to find a good actor for the role, that transformation might have made me like him. Unfortunately they didn't, so he will always suck. Take Game of Thrones as a good example. If they hadn't put the effort in to find phenomenal child actors for the roles Bran, Arya, Joffrey...
I hatred for Carl goes beyond simply being annoyed at him during the episodes. It's a strong, active, passionate hatred. I loathe him with all my being. I have discovered myself thinking at how much I despise the little shit when studying, when working, when drinking. It's gotten to the point...
