    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Well the last line in that video kinda supports that argument... Laidlaw parts with "This is the Dragon Age game we always wanted to make". So if they hadn't been hamburger-helpered into a MASH-A-FOR-AWESOME gay-terrorist-dating-sim they would've made.... Skyrim?

    The Documentary Thread

    Lol yeah that's a whole trollthread in the making: foodies pay insane cash and wait months to sit for a few courses at Michelin starred places. Do they go for the food or the exclusivity? Google up the dishes at Brooklyn fare or alinea and Noma. Actually there's a couple docs out there...

    The Documentary Thread

    Price isn't the biggest hurdle, it's the waiting list. Pretty much the same thing with michelin-starred tasting menus anywhere.

    Defiance Season 2

    Well the show definitely cranks up the grittiness which brings it closer to BSG's pervasive depression... question is why the fuck didn't they roll with that throughout the whole first season in the first place. It's obvious noir worked for BSG, so why'd they try a pg-13 vibe for the first two...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    So they had a completely DIFFERENT studio do all the effects for the wall battle and stannis-charge in ep10, that makes sense. The writers mustve pushed the fact that there aren't many effects-laden battles in the next two seasons when pitching for a massive budget for season 4's battle at the...

    Transcendence

    Finally saw this via brrip... wasn't as terrible till it got to the end. The ending definitely felt like producers bullying the writers since it wasn't too horrible until the third act. Depp couldn't do skynet for shit, they shouldve switched it around and had his wife be skynet and Depp be...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    took about 18k for hexing pants yeah... i thought 8k for taskers was bad. I farmed up about 6k shards on my WD to gear up my DH and got 6/6 marauders and 2/2 natalyas and a fuckton of shit leg gloves (Trying to get a dex taskers).

    TV Foodie Feeds the Trolls and Loses TV Show

    Wish he would contest this in court as far as he can go. It's a pretty major employment law issue (just like the Duck Dynasty thing) that should probably get resolved with a major precedent. Sure tv celebrities can defend themselves, but how many Amazon warehouse pickers can protect...

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    I grabbed Panzer Corps on the ipad after bringing it up earlier... it's actually incredibly rich with a massive metagame development above and beyond the original PG (it's got the bridgelayer variant of the panzer2 wtf) and tons of performance-based scenario trees. It's basically everything you...

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    Shermans were highly reliable, but they weren't designed to confront the kind of tank Panthers and Tigers basically inaugurated: main battle tanks. The shermans were designed to fight ww2 whereas the Tiger2 was designed for the sort of modern armored combat that everyone expected to see in the...

    Ugh that just makes me wanna fire up the old panzer general campaign... I remember barely being able to upgrade one of my waffen ss veteran units into king tigers just in time for normandy and barely stopping D-day with them. That game was such a jew with prestige points---you basically had to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Then where did you get Brienne and Pod being resurrected as undead under LSH's control? Kinda sounds like you got trolled by a bookfag who was having fun with a nonreader. I heard that happens sometimes.

    Dude always looks like he's chewing tobacco or something. Thankfully the chicks are all hot, even the deputy. Amish crimelord is easily my favorite character. Alll the Vory are kinda useless pussies tho--maybe cuz they're all ukrainian? Shouldn't matter, last I heard some of the biggest Vory...

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    I don't think they had anything to do with producing the film but they're marketing it together.That trailer debuted at the E3 World of Tanks panel, the director was even there... they're doing some kinda tie-in with the game too apparently. There was some kinda diorama of the tank with the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well there won't be an LSH one-off now. I doubt they'd True-Bloodify the show with Darth Sansa hatefucking anything, either. Sansa/LF will probably parallel Arya/Hound and end similarly. Could be wrong, they've already True-Blooded the finale with magical squirrel people throwing flaming...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well look, there's definitely a reason to worry that LSH is gone. The show does such a tryhard job of establishing Petyr's lifelong obsession over Cat that it seemed like they were definitely setting up zombie Catelyn eating his face for sure. LSH was there to wrap up Littlefinger's...

    Frey Pies are the BEST comeuppance anyone has had yet... how does hanging even come close to that? If anything cutting stoneheart out only allows lord manderley to get MORE freys to make extra pies with later. GRRM has even hinted that Wyman isn't quite done and he loves writing the "rat cook"...

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    The only piece of equipment the sherman crew ever really needed was called the Republic P47 thunderbolt. Historically, most panzer crews died without a single sherman or allied armor in sight. Sherman crews definitely dreaded getting within sight of Panthers and Tigers, but the sight panzer...

    James S.A. Corey - The Expanse

    I wonder if they gave Syfy an outline of the whole arc for a multi-season contract or if theyre just going book per season for now.

    Fury: Brad Pitt commands a sherman tank in WW2

    They actually brought a real Tiger I tank out of a museum to film duelling Brad Pitt's M4 Sherman. So it's either a really short movie or it has little bearing on reality.

    I knew she actually said this in a previous interview before she even started filming in 24, but Michelle Fairey reiterates the contractual/logistical reasons whyLady Stoneheart has been cut from the show. Of course some people just interpretted that as "lolol new actress lolol", but she brings...

    They're fucking freaks. The vikings supposedly colonized Iceland as a place to stash the hottest chicks they could kidnap, but they apparently left their mutant half-giant berserkers there to guard them.

    Lol the showrunners actually hired a fanboi/bookfag as the "bible guy" and screenwriter for season one: Bryan Cogman. That dude has since been promoted to co-Producer and often gets exec credits. He's even writing the Magic:TheGathering movie wtf.

    Reading the books would've been pointless for Shae anyway... her role in the show is totally different from the books. She's practically a cartoon in the books and the producers tried to make show-Shae a load-bearing character for the Tyrion-Tywin arc. Unfortunately Sibel Kekili really...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    GRRM has actually said that the series is constructed backwards and he had the ending in mind as far back as 1991.
