    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Seems that a chunk of the movie lays the groundwork for Black Panther movie. 1) the Hulk/Stark fight scene happens in a country that looks african (lots of black people on the street in clothes that don't look like american apparel, some shop brands from South Africa only) 2) Ulysses Klaw...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    The whole "dragon sickness" business is even more stupid when you take in consideration that the Arkenstone is probably one of the Silmarii, and that alone would explain why it drives people crazy to obtain it. In the Silmarilion, it's explained how the Silmarils shine very brightly and reflect...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    I really liked the first two, I thought this one was terrible. I'm hoping the EE will redeem it some, because it sure felt like a LOT of shit was left on the cutting room floor. I'm guessing that Peter Jackson took to heart the criticism about ROTK's infinite endings and that bothered him...

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Technically, Vader's "Custom TIE Advanced x 1" was never hit by a laser bolt, it was hit by another TIE fighter that bumped into it when the Millenium Falcon blew up a third TIE fighter in the trench. That said, you're correct, Vader's fighter was more armored and could enter hyperspace. It...

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Yes. It's also quite evident when you can see several times in the old movies the X-Wings getting a few laser shots from a TIE fighter and not going down in flames (Wedge, Luke, etc...) while every TIE Fighter that gets hit by a laser immediately vaporizes.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I agree with that analysis, IF that part of the "leak" turns out to be true, it'd make sense. And be pretty cool.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Well, I think beside the possible practical uses of having a crossguard, we shouldn't forget that the number one reason why Sith would use a RED saber and wear all creepy dark cloaks is because they just want to look badass and evil. And that saber looks badass, practical or not.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Force of habit. A lot of people are so used to hating on Star Wars because of the prequels or because it's the bandwagon that they're trying to be trendy by hating on this one before it's cool.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    I'm not complaining, I like the idea. Besides, all the material seen so far hints that the villain we saw has a cybernetic hand, so it's not far-fetched to imagine that he improved his saber to have a crossguard SPECIFICALLY because it happened to him in the past hah. In reply to the EU wall...

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    So, obviously the trailer is edited that way to make us feel like all these people are reacting to the same event, the "Awakening", but that got me wondering.. Since there is hardly any Force users left after the previous movies, basically no more dark side users and one (maybe two with Leia)...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm in the same situation as described above, my main is a miner and blacksmith and cannot burn through all the ores I get from both the world and the garrison mine (gotta get that goren pet!), though I did find a way to at least get rid of some of it. I mailed it to my engineer /...

    Blizzcon 2014 - Who's going?

    WoW was a more casual MMORPG and look how bad it failed, right? They've said on the panel that it's MEANT to be casual, it's meant to be more easily approachable by the masses, that's why they have different types of gameplay inside the teams, that's why you can respawn as a different hero...

    Blizzcon 2014 - Who's going?

    They've said there is NO deathmatch mode for Overwatch. They don't find that kind of gameplay interesting as it goes against their vision of a "less lethal" gameplay where you don't die too fast or too easily and have time to enjoy your game. The goal of the game is to cooperate as a team to...

    Overwatch

    Overwatch looked pretty amazing. I played TF2 a few times and it was fun, but this looks even better. I'm loving the artwork, reminds me of a mix between Blizzard art and Bioshock Infinite, with a pinch of Pixar thrown in. Good stuff!

    Fondest Memory of MMOs

    Pretty much all the time I spent exploring even the most mundane zones of EverQuest I see as fond memories when looking back with those huge rose-tinted glasses, but even hearing the music nowadays still brings back chills and feels. But if I had to pick three stories that I particularly...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's an alternate timeline, "our" Outland still exists, this is just another version of what could have happened if the Orcs did not drink Mannoroth's blood (and had advanced technology 35 years ago). Both versions of Draenor will be available at the different levels. They already explained that...

    You'll get a quest to go see Varian Wrynn in Stormwind as soon as you hit 85. That quest just appears on your screen and takes you straight to Pandaria.

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    Well, I see his point about the ghost army. I imagined they would look badass and sort of scary, but to be honest when you see them in the background mowing down oliphaunts by just climbing onto them like a huge green bubbling flubber, I think the only thing lacking is the Benny Hill theme...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    People have every right to be disappointed in whatever movies they choose, you can't please everyone. That said, I am old enough these days to learn to make a difference between two different versions of a thing I love. I dearly love the Hobbit book and the Lord of the Rings books and even...

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)

    I loved the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I loved Hobbit 1. I liked Hobbit 2 a bit less but it was still a good film. I don't think there was material to do 3 movies but I'm not complaining because it means more movies that take me into a visual universe I enjoyed reading about for many years. I'll...

    Transformers 4: Baylicious

    It's been very inconsistent in the movies anyway. The first and second movies showed the Autobots and Decepticons arriving on Earth in "metal asteroid" forms, we never saw any use of a ship though the Fallen lives in orbit in a ship. Then the third movie had the ships crashed on the Moon and...

    Transformers 4: Baylicious

    I've never been a Transformers fan, didn't see the original cartoons as they weren't much of a thing here in Europe back then, but I thought Transformers 1 was decent despite the obvious flaws (mostly Shia, Megan Fox scenes where she is doing anything but showing her ass, and the terrible...

    Wolfenstein the New Order

    I believe they have a law in Germany that says they can't show any swastikas or references to nazism on toys, and video games are still considered toys there. So that's why it's heavily censored. As for the differences between the Fergus and Wyatt timelines, there's not really anything to...

    My main reason for saving Fergus was that he looks like Dr. House. I knew I made the right choice when he called an ubersoldat a "Frankenstein cunt".

    Wolfenstein the New Order

    Loved this game from start to finish. I enjoyed the mix of old school mechanics and recent ones, enjoyed the stealthy approach you can decide to have on various missions. Also, the story was delivered really nicely, the voice overs are top notch quality. Only thing I'd say that is neither good...

    DOOM

    While I don't agree Doom 3 was "bad", you have to agree it was retarded for them to have you choose between "see where I shoot" (flashlight) and "shoot" (everything else). I know some mods later made it possible to attach the flashlight onto a gun but that was just ridiculous. I spent most of...

    E3 2014

    Yes it did. That was my point. People judging the game because of its franchise name without having even played it don't know it was by far the best Zelda in the last 10 years, if not since Ocarina of Time, and that's saying something.

    It's the crossed legs. That's why she wasn't in the movie. First time she tried to run away from sentinels, her shorts dropped down and she tripped like a dumb bitch.

    Godzilla (2014)

    The best Evangelion movie you're ever going to get was Pacific Rim. And that's because it removed all the fucking whiny fluff from Evangelion and replaced it with awesome.

    I'll be damned if Evangelion doesn't contain more daddy and mommy issues than the whole last 3 decades of fail monster movies combined.

    Stargate Reboot Trilogy

    I could swear I heard the explaination in SG-1 at some point but I can't seem to find the source anymore, it was probably a throaway line by Daniel Jackson after O'Neill wondered aloud why the hell Ra looked so different to the others. Anyway, here is a link to the Stargate Wiki page...
