I liked the opening act in 1984 quite a lot but once Kyle and Sara started having dialogue together the whole movie tanked. The effects are good, the action set pieces are good, but they have no chemistry and the writing is just godawful. Way too much Terminator 3 in this mess.

I like the prologue chapter of Doctor Sleep a great deal but I have a very hard time getting from Danny as a kid to Danny as an alcoholic failure as an adult. I didn't like the book's message on heredity or any of the Alcoholics Anonymous stuff and as per usual the villains all get jobbed out in...

Does Greece have a massive population of segregated minorities that a tourist could identify by skin color alone and thus infer they probably want to turn around?

Does Greece have an early warning sign like Chicago does? You know, when thecolorof the city starts to change?

After the AvP debacle I thought Predators was alright.

Making Sky harder is fine but if they are going to do that I'd like them to put in a little extra work and revamp some of the drops and loot tables. I'm happy to see the big haste items and melee weapons get assembled but so much of that gear boils down to +mana if you are a caster. I care more...

Whoa there buddy. Throw that language out with the Confederate flag.

He said he thought you could pet wall revamped Nagafen with six Mages. I don't even know how you could come to such a conclusion.

You sir did not just do Vox and Nagafen this morning if you have that opinion.

Nagafen super fucking hard as fucking fuck also.

Vox was hard as fucking fuck. It felt like doing here back in the day.

Go fucking fuck yourself you stupid fucking fuck fucker. A majority of players on both servers voted for earlier Kunark? Better stick one server at six months anyway because that first vote was blessed by White Jesus himself. Oh, and throw in free transfers so the end game raiding scene on...

They've got numbers on the amount of impact a single mulligan has on the outcomes of a game of Magic and it's probably a lot. It's probably too much for a game that takes takes itself as seriously as Magic does and with Hearthstone eating up market share they have real pressure to start...

I like Kibler's idea to attack a combo deck's card draw. It's a very Magicky analysis but it is a strategy that has been very effective in curbing problem decks in that game. Just breaking it apart by wrecking Warsong Command or Grim Patron is lazy.

The mulligan system is one of Magic's most antiquated rules and if they are looking at making even a change as small as this to it I am 100% in favor.

Good article. It also doesn't help things that Dragons/Dragons/Fate is stale as fucking fuck. Origins cannot get here soon enough.

There are like five tiers of augments that you can buy for weapons if you are anything other than a pure caster. There is a straight dmg proc, a dot proc, a heal proc, and a heal over time proc. They are not great.

Any video I can find myself in is a good video.

I can't even imagine what another couple thousand pages on that brick would be like. couple of times Even in its current form it could really use a 100-200 page trim.

The best geared shaman on the server (Ronne) also has probably the best geared Paladin on the server and Pris is only level 22 in that picture. There's some stacked warriors running around but it's a goddamn ghetto for the rest of the non-Monk melee.

The people still were mostly people for a long time. Not a single person in that town had that piece of general information. They instead drove across the countryside looking for batteries. It's been a while since I've read it. Why do you keep saying the ship was alternating current?

Everything the townspeople "invented" were powered by batteries. They were sending people out to all the nearby cities to buy more batteries. Batteries are a big part of the narrative both literally and symbolically but you can convert AC to DC which is kind of a big problem.

You've got not only the aliens but an entire town's worth of people that didn't have that basic information. The whole thing just falls apart.

I had a friend ruin the Tommyknockers forever when he pointed out that the super intelligent aliens couldn't convert AC to DC.

In both The Body and the film adaptation Stand by Me the character of Gordy LaChance tells his friends a revenge story with a fat kid that pukes on everyone at a pie eating contest. In both the book and the movie it's this great, surreal little detour. At the end of the story his friends all...

The story does end. The poem is the true ending of the story. It's literally how the book ends. Get out your copy, open it up, flip to the end, and there's the poem. He gets to the tower, he blows the horn, the end.

No one else but King could get away with introducing a character like Patrick Danville at the very very end of a seven book epic through a magic door and having him immediately job out the primary antagonist of not only that series but other books. Hey, this kid who gets like two lines in a...

He's just not great at endings. I thought Doctor Sleep was pretty decent overall but when it came to be the final confrontation all the bad guys got jobbed out immediately and it was all around anti-climatic. I was envisioning this really massive event where Rose the Hat goes into Danny's mind...

Why not have a storybook ending? Why not have something big? So it was going to be a hard story to end properly. That's no reason to give the shitty, cop-out ending we got. Oh, he's in a loop. Lovely. But THIS time he's got the Horn of Eld! Hey asshole, maybe tell me that story? Maybe that's the...

I like 2001 just fine and I'm about halfway through The Martian and I like it just fine as well. If the movie comes out like the book I'll be surprised. I'm expecting it to end up closer to Promethus than to 2001.

Accurate.

Boy do I not miss corpse runs. The lack of them doesn't diminish my gaming experience in the least.

His character drug down Interstellar pretty hard but that had nothing to do with his performance.

I'm like an hour into the audio book and I can see why so many of you really like it. Something this sciencey translated into a motion picture? Probably going to be terrible.

The best part about an interesting looking movie coming out based on a book people speak well of is that I can just go get the book and enjoy it now.

You're aren't a straight shooter saying it like it is. You're a toxic lump of toadstool.

No dude,youdon't get it. You're toxic.

Paused video 27 seconds in. He's talking about the mute button, isn't he. edit - boom goes the dynamite

No, you are not.
