Obviously, a body double would have burned to death!

Let me quote random internet poster 50ShadesofJimGrey: "Yes, because what corporate fat cat doesn't want all the ratings gold of media market 43 in the NBA Finals instead of market No. 6, represented by a team that has meant big ratings all year and the reigning two-time MVP?"

That was a strange game as both teams and several key players on both sides had long spells of terribad. As a result, I am not sure there is much to learn from it.

One down, three to go (two really). Interestingly, we are almost back to a pre red wedding situation. By this I mean a situation with many parties within Westeros and thin alliances. On that note, with Stannis dead, who is the Lord of Storm's End now? Tommen by virtue of being the last...

That recent Macbeth was pretty good, so there is that. And maybe I am a cynical mofo, but, when I hear out of place hip-hop in a trailer, I assume some bean counter was worried the theme of the movie might not interest black moviegoers...

Bronn, Littlefinger, Gendry and White Walkers still on the list. I am surprised by three of the four. On a side note, the flashback machine is an easy but good device to unveil mysteries and manage rhythm (lacking action this episode? No Problemo: let's do a flashback to a fight scene!).

Deus Ex Genealogia!

Looking at the plot summaries on IMDB it sounds like Civil War goes between episode 19 (3rd of May) and 20 (10th of May).

You are thinking of Podrick (who is not one of Robert's illegitimate son as far as I know?). I am talking about the guy that got leeched by Melissandre at Stanis' home and that Davos the Onion Knight helped escape on a rowboat never to be seen again. Gendry is the name (not seen since season 3)...

Still not shown this season: Bronn, Littlefinger, the illegitimate son of King Robert (lol), Osha and Rickon (not shown in season 5 though?), White Walkers, Olenna Tyrell (and her husband), Sam and Gilly...

Saw bad vietnamese action/heist movie. Ending credit song was dirty hip-hop by one of the cast members. Curiosity brought the cat on youTube: Same artist:

From the 22nd to the 30th of April the 18th edition of the Far East Film Festival was held in Udine, Italy. As its names implies, the festival focuses on movies from the Far East, but what its name does not say is that it focuses on popular cinema. I went to a very unhealthy 57 screenings during...

The only problem I see with Vikander being in Tomb Raider is that all the time she will spend shooting it would be better spent shooting a good movie. That said, there are some movies that by all metrics should be lame and end up being good.

About "getting it", I will agree that not everyone will be equally aware of the elegance of both the game design and level design of this game (it's no surprise that game designers and game critics alike have only very high praises for the game, since they are more likely to be sensitive about...

If you define a hipster as someone whose goal is to always be in the minority, the minority position would be to say this game is bad! It's a puzzle game though, so if you don't like puzzle game, it's not for you. If you don't know if you like puzzle games, the game is probably a bit too...

It indeed does not. And the sum total of the info on the Steam store page is "A simple 3d puzzle game." It's in part because Increpare is both intransigent and facetious, in part because he never speaks about his games (he let his games do the talking for him or, to say it in another way, games...

Hardcore gamer: 4.5/5:Review: Stephens Sausage Roll | Hardcore Gamer IGN Hungary: 9/10:Stephens Sausage Roll - Teszt - A világ legrandább, legokosabb játéka | IGN Hungary There are not that many reviews out for the game at this point (if there was I would not link to IGN Hungary!). I am...

Funny you would say that because badminton, along with squash, ranks among the most physically demanding sport there is, just under things like MMA or boxing. Badminton requires very good hand-eye coordination, explosiveness, balance, proprioception and cardio/endurance as the constant explosive...

It is very difficult to write about, Stephen "Increpare" Lavelle latest game:Stephen's Sausage Roll. The first difficulty is that it is a puzzle game and, as such, its core virtues are in its mechanics and in its level design. The second difficulty is that discovering the mechanics is an...

That looks like a remake of the first movie. Several shots are very similar as is the focus on the organized governmental response to natural catastrophes. The japanese title is Shin Gojira, so New Godzilla. That's a pretty common way to title movies and it can be for sequels, remakes, reboots...

Have you seen this movie in theater or could it be a straight to video thing or a TV movie?

Considering the algorithmic nature of the world generation it could very well take 100 years of play time to reach the center of the Galaxy.

Some Rhythm Tengoku Gold: And, to redeem myself for this weird stuff, this marvelous track from Axelay that you can listen to over and over again, focusing on the different instruments.

Does this count? I think it was made for the game, wasn't it?

Might want to check The Wolf of Wall Street.

It's my understanding that the Gears of Wars games are good and that it is likely that this one will be good too, but.... what's up with the atrocious 3D models and animations for the flash back segments of this trailer? These things are often outsourced, but still... wtf?

A recent addition to the VG playlist:

I have some friends making a little game for the Gear VR and I tested it the other day. I don't have a point of comparison with the other headsets, but it was light, cordless, confortable and quality of the head tracking impressed me. For the game to run at enough FPS, it had to be pretty...

Cautiously pesimistic. What is there to add to this story? Even expanding the story that has already been told (like showing the many failed attempts at going past the farm house and the toll it takes on Cruise's character) would probably not work.

Where did I see that guy using another guy as surf board before? (EDIT: other than Jushin Thunder Liger of course!)

Let's just say that the huge majority of building don't fall down when being built or when being used, so for it to happen something exceptional must happen, which includes the exceptionally stupid and/or unlucky! You usually need both because you need a bad decision and then no one noticing it...

Not an expert on the subject, but I very recently read Why Buildings Stand Up and Why Buildings Fall Down, two books by Mario Salvadori a structural engineer. A number of things could have gone wrong. If I have to make a guess, I would say more than cutting corners or using material of a...

Isn't there tons of book stuff that was not showed or even mentioned in the serie and other that was changed making a "tv watchers only" thread still a good idea?

I am not very familiar with the old school BBC comedy sketch show The Two Ronnies, but, after Ronnie Barker a few years back, Ronnie Corbett just died. A good (if sad) occasion to repost one of the best and smartest sketch ever devised: Mastermind.

It took me a while to stop laughing:

Is the book sequel set 20 years after the original?

That Chronos game look ok, doesn't it? I hope it will get released in a non-VR version in a not so distant future.

I am with sukik. I am sad to hear about Malik's death, but I am also surprised to discover that he was basically the same age as my brother who was the one very much into hip-hop in the early '90s.
