    Mario Maker. I have not bought a Wii U with Mario Maker, because I fear I will play no other game for the next 5 years if I do!

    Euro 2016

    Yep. When a Portugal vs Iceland match ends in a draw, Iceland won a point and Portugal lost two points.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I understand that. My problem is the scene with the Lord of Riverrun about to get his throat sliced in front of the castle and no one caring about it. In that scene, it sounds like Edmure has no say on what is going on when in fact he has. I understand that the Fray guys are supposed to be...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I enjoyed the "tell a joke" scene. It both showed how Tyrion was afraid to feel very lonely without Varys and allowed two characters with a perma-frown to smile and who does not like a smiling Nathalie Emmanuel?

    E3 2016

    In the disappointment column, I am not sure I like the character design of the boy in The Last Guardian and it's a bit of a shame that there was no indie montage/panel as there was last year.

    God Of War 4

    I thought for a while that it was a different character altogether, so like a reboot of the serie with another mythological set, but then in the fight against the troll he used an ability called "spartan rage"... Still... the Omega in the title is now a hand drawn circle, so I am confused.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Going without transition from Edmure being a poor sap that the Blackfish would let die without anyone raising an eyebrow to him being the guy everyone obeys no matter what did not sound very natural to me... Also, a man does not care for his disciples very much...

    Nightly Movie Thread

    Re-watched Akira as I landed on it on TV. Almost 30 years later it is still by far the most insane feat of classical animation ever made. The pacing is all weird, the story is burdened by a lot of pseudo-scientific and mystic hodgepodge, as someone familiar with the amazing score, seeing...

    The Lobster (2015)

    I agree that's it a bit of a shame that the intensity of the comedy goes down slowly but continuously through the movie. Still, a very strange and very powerful film packed with fierce social commentary and the darkest of dark comedy. Less bizarre but just as fierce and with enduring comedy...

    Is this the thread where people rant about shitty weather? Well... we are the 11th of June and so far this year I have seen maybe 2 proper sunny days. Year after year I am getting increasingly tired of this stuff, I need to move to somewhere warm and sunny for a year of three to get to complain...

    Euro 2016

    Every four years I realize how little I care about the Euro when compared to the World Cup. I am not too sure why... it's probably a question of diversity in play styles and the opportunity to see players we are not used to see with the asian, african and american teams.

    SQL Query Help

    Can't you order the results by Updated time and limit the result list to one? So like SELECT yadda yadda WHERE yadda yadda ORDER BY mod_dt DESC LIMIT 1 ? EDIT: Oh that won't work if you want the latest schedule of everyone instead of the latest schedule of one person.

    WarCraft (2016)

    What does that mean though? Looking at some previous years chinese box office we have 8 US blockbusters in the top 20 grossing films of 2015 (N?1: Furious 7...), 9 in 2014 (N?1: Transformers: The Age of Extinction...) , 11 in 2013 (N?1 was Journey to the West, N?2 Iron Man 3). Currently 12 in...

    He'll be back when the Cavs lose by 30 points in game 4 since it seems close matches are like gold dust this these playoffs.

    Tennis

    At the start of every event, he is without a doubt the favorite. That being said, the glorious uncertainty of sport can easily manifest itself on grass (even if it's not as fast as it used to be) and at the Olympics since it's a best of three sets format. And no so long ago we had a Cilic vs...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Actually I used to torrent it, but for the last couple seasons many countries (Switzerland included) have TV channels that broadcast the show on Monday night with subtitles (I don't need the subs but that's a minor nuisance). Anyway, they also show the next week preview bit, but guess what? I am...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I am amazed that it's 2016 and people still watch previews for next episodes. In the list of things amazingly still done in 2016, that's below smoking cigarettes, but still.... wtf? Doesn't that fall into spoiler and/or pussy shit?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah, not only the only killed character was introduced in the episode, but a guy supposed to be dead is back to life! It's so weird, that when Arya got stabbed it felt like a dream sequence! I am joking, but I must say I am pretty happy that Westeros is back to being a clusterfuck of fragile...

    Actually the noble savage comment was not dead on. It would be if the orcs were the keepers of the flame for some wise ancien knowledge the human forgot or never knew, possibly about how to live harmoniously with nature or something similar... That is not the plot of the movieat all. Without...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    To be fair, as a fan of all three games in the serie, there comes a point where it becomes more of a puzzle game than anything and, once you get used to the melee mechanics and timing of the different characters, the shibito are getting wrecked. It takes a bit of practice and a willingness to...
