    World War Z

    You are the one who wanted to know what about this film screams that it is just like every other zombie movie. The answer to that question is everything. Everything about this movie screams that is going to be just like every other zombie. The only thing that sets this film apart are the star...

    World War Z

    I feel like I need to remind you that this is your tangent started by you saying this - Everythingabout the trailer sets this up to be derivative. If we swap out Brad Pitt all it would take to turn that trailer into an advertisement for Resident Evil Retribution would be some edits and a title...

    World War Z

    Except yes. I could do a fan edit mixing parts of RE Retribution and the WWZ trailer and outsider would never know. The main difference is the presence of Bradd Pitt. And that is a huuuuuuge deal. When we see Brad Pitt in the lead and find out it was his production company that green lit this...

    World War Z

    The only unique thing about the trailers is the presence of Brad Pitt. If you swapped him with Milla Jovovich and edited the title card you wouldn't know you weren't watching a trailer for Resident Evil: Retribution.

    World War Z

    I'm very happy to have a big budget sequel to the Dawn of the Dead remake but I remain cautious. If some people here see it and like it and some of the reviewers I follow like it than sure but I'm not going to be in line day one for this. I've asked that question with many an adaptation and I've...

    The Matrix (1999)

    Why does doing a good job with a bad premise disprove that their first run at it was different? Their initial idea for the trilogy was to have the second film be a prequel but doing another film without the stars of the first was going to be impossible. The initial first script for Reloaded was...

    We've got a Matrix prequel. It's the first two stories in the Animatrix. And the Second Renaissance isawesome.I prefer it to either sequel.

    The Matrix (1999)

    I don't have a problem with Neo being unable to just power through whatever. What bothers me is that our Jesus 2.0 with godmode enabled savior of humanity that is destined to bring balance to the force who can EMP machines with his meat body gets beaten on by a complete throw-away character and...

    The Matrix (1999)

    BZZZZZZZZZZT Sorry, that's an incorrect response. The answer we were looking for is "lazy writing tied to having no idea what to do with a omnipowerful character." And seriously dude, did you even watch these movies? First you forgot that the Oracle flat out stated that Smith was evil and...

    League Of Legends

    While I like the gameitselffor me League of Legends has come to represent everything about gamers and game culture that I hate. I quit playing Magic the Gathering over far less than what the LoL community has made me put up with.

    The Matrix (1999)

    All we ever got was being told that the power of the One extends beyond the Matrix. Except in the Train Man's little pocket dimension where Neo can totally get curb stomped for some reason. Even to this day that pisses me off to no end. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU MAKE THE RULES YOU HOBO BECAUSE...

    Everyone except Agent Smith and maybe the Architect would call Agent Smith evil in that universe. Everyone. Every single everyone. Everywhere.

    The Matrix (1999)

    Actually what we know is that it was a change due to executive meddling and doesn't make any real sense if you stop for a moment to think about it. You are the one that is trying too hard. The answer is completely mundane.

    The Matrix (1999)

    Are you honestly going to make the claim that sentient artificial beings are incapable of evil? Where does that even come from? It sure as shit doesn't come from these films because if you were paying attention the primary antagonist is Agent Smith and he's world-alteringly evil.

    The Matrix (1999)

    In an earlier draft of the story the machines used the minds of humans for computer storage. It was changed to power under the assumption the audience would understand that better. I just mentally substitute power for storage whenever I watch the films. I have few kind words for the second...

    The Walking Dead

    If this show didn't have multiple airings all sandwiched around Adult Swim I'd never remember to even tune in but at those time slots I can catch anything. There is not a single other show on television that I watch week to week right now. I wish I could say I thought the comic was still...

    You manufactured from whole cloth the quote you attributed to Azrayne. He is talking about Reloaded and Revolutions specifically and in that regard he's mostly right.

    The Matrix (1999)

    I could go on and on about how much I dislike Reloaded and Revolutions but what pisses me off about the series the most is how Morpheus goes from being this absolutely amazing character to being relegated to being the goddamn co-pilot in the third film for a character we barely know. He doesn't...

    The Walking Dead

    You are tasking me to name a film that you are unable to mock? I'll pass, thank you. Instead you get this. Long ago we used to have a thing called the Motion Picture Production Code (or the Hays Code) and it dictated what could and could not be shown in films. There were all kinds of things...

    You totally got me.

    The Walking Dead

    Yeah, I saw that. I don't fully understand why it gets the ratings that it does. It would be like if the season premier for Star Trek Voyager got the highest ratings ever in UPN's history. Really? This mediocre mess is your highest rating programming?

    BioFreaks is a fighting game with a computer that is so cheap even with invulnerability from a Game Shark code you will still get juggled until your head comes off.
