Maggie Grace was in the penultimate season of Californication (no president children in that though).

The male/female double standard pretty much disappears if the female teacher ass-fucks the male student with a broom though.

I can see this Nemesis system having the same kind of impact on game developers as Demon's Souls / Dark Souls (it fells like half the game design pitches I saw in the last few years mentioned those).

Rambo 4 was fun in its over-the-top-ness, but Rocky Balboa is a masterpiece, a film that seemingly emerged from a time machine. In fact I ranked it third of the movies I saw in 2007 (first was Lu Ye's Summer Palace, 2nd was Linklater's Fast Food Nation, 4th The Assassination of Jesse James by...

There was a lot of trolling and prejudice going on in the threads about transsexualism, but there was still a lot of interesting pieces of information and new perspectives, especially for people like me who have almost no queer people in their circle of friends and, as a result, don't get to...

I was not overly amused in MGS3 when you had to wait for 5 minutes for things to go back to normal after being spotted. At first I afk'ed and then it encouraged me to forego sneaking altogether and just run up to the next check points and die.

My understanding is that the problem is not the C-section in itself, but the fact the placenta is wrongly placed and hemorrhaging so you have to deal with that and the C-section at the same time before the patient bleeds out. But... problem solved!

Just reread a compilation of poetry and short proses by G?rard de Nerval, a french author from the first half of the XIXth century. I had the book since high-school when I worked on some of his poems, but read the short stories for the first time. Several of these short stories are records of...

Anderson's lone comedy is its worst film by far, but this one looks at the very least reasonably funny.

Pretty crazy draw in Beijing's ATP 500 this week. We currently have a first round Nadal vs Gasquet and later we will get a Fognini vs Gulbis and a Janowicz vs Murray! Tomic vs Raonic in Tokyo also sounds intriguing.

He will blame it on the rain. Girl, you know it's true.

In case you were wondering, this is still all kinds of great. I think it's the mix of opposites that works so well in this show. It's a period drama, yet it's filmed with raw energy and with an electronic music score. Most characters are part of the elite, yet it is filled with blood and guts...

In a way the change in actors kinda works, because the character also changed. Brolin is the hardened version of Owen.

I wanted to post a screenshot on the video game screenshot thread using the PS4 browser and could not! Boo boo! More seriously, I also find it surprising that you can't manage what ends up in the fast bar. Once I am done with a game, I want to kick it off the shortcut list, but I can't (or at...

Having recently bought a X360 controller to use on PC games, I have no idea why people are enjoying that thing as much as they do. Maybe the wired ones are cheaper than the wireless versions, but the plastic they use for the buttons and the one they use for the sticks make it feel flimsy.

I read a review that made the nemesis system sound pretty awesome and fresh, because it's very open-worldy (you chose how you go at problems), very emergent-behavioury (there is a wealth of things that are interconnected in obvious and less obvious ways) and it makes sure it does not feel like...

Is it how it's transliterated in the scanlated manga? BecauseVerdun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I sure am!

Does that figure include the professional players across all the leagues or only the top league?

I find it a bit unsettling that the reaction to 'my employee seem to have some troubles' is 'better fire him quick before he does something stupid' instead of 'let's see what seems to be the problem and if we can help him'.

I read the title right and the first thing that came to mind is the Iron Lotus.

I still vividly remember the short dance scenes in Adjustment Bureau.

Serious question: Is it domestic violence if you don't live under the same roof?

Maybe it will be close to a road movie!

If the customer mistook another customer for a waitress, it's likely he found the 'waitress' rude!

I wish it could be a mix between an action-RPG, a road movie and Entourage, with all the world building being done with the radio and the buddies babbling. It probably will not be as extreme as that, but it still looks very refreshing.

Isn't he from Chechnya or something?

I have not seen the tv show, but I can vouch for the brilliance of the manga. The close future / hardish science setting is also a big plus and sadly too rare. Did someone mention Monster already? It's like The Fugitive through a contemporary Europe haunted by the ghosts of WWII / Cold War...

Also... unless I missed it, there is no such thing as blood transfusion, making it remarkably easier for patients to just bleed to death! EDIT: Probably spoilerish as it may end up in the narrative, but it's medical history. Blood transfusions existed from the early XIXth century, but it...

Dont russians do overdubs too? That is, over the sound of the movie, you have a single guy translating all the lines in a neutral tone. I wonder if when you get used to it you can mentally block that voice over in the same way you don't realize you are reading subtitles in a subbed movie. A few...

I am not sure really (99% of my torrenting is TV shows!) I'll get back to you on that, because I have a friend who downloads a lot of off the beaten path movies. If crappy quality is not an issue, there is a surprising amount of stuff on youTube (I even saw a version of Pee Mak earlier with...

It should be mentioned that it's based on a very popular folk tale, so as such there are number of thai movies on the same subject. I can't vouch for the quality of any of the others. I thought it was worth adding that because youTube is suggesting a video of a full pee mak movie, except it's...

It made $18 millions domestic + $13 millions foreign in South East Asia, Hong Kong and China (a movie like Hunger Game made a bit above $3 millions in Thailand). Box Office Mojo does not have the budget of the film and even if it did it would require cost of living adjustments to have a sense of...

Yeah man. Black Coal Thin Ice is so shit it won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival (you know, the top price at one of the three most important film festival in the world?) and I am such the pretentious aesthete that I put it next to Peek Mak which is the highest grossing film in the...

What's with the retard level on these boards lately? Do you want help finding Denmark on a map? Should I google Sils Maria for you? 5 of the 6 great movies I saw this year are asian? Boo fucking hoo, I wonder if it's related to the fact I saw 50+ recent asian movies at a festival back in Spring...

Canadian imperialism?

This picture is a total misrepresentation: I don't drink wine! More seriously it's hard to make more mainstream than Venus Talk, it's really a polished well flowing film with an all star cast. The trailer focuses on the comedy though. Think of it that way: Edge of Tomorrow is great...

For reference, I really enjoyed this movie and gave it three out of four stars. But I saw this year several 4 stars movies (in alpha order): Black Coal, Thin Ice: a chinese post-noir. Blind: a danish psychological drama about a blind woman who imagines stories and fantasizes all day long...

I almost convinced myself the answer was Gemma Ward, but then i put them side by side and a doubt subsists...

I kinda liked Legacy. I am not too keen on the secret service within the secret service within the black op that tries to kill its own agents thing BUT I liked the pacing of the movie and how its events were woven with the events of Ultimatum. Which brings me to my point: Damon being in doesn't...
