Do that during the World Cup and Wimbledon, why don't you?

Play is usually not stopped during an action and there was a lengthy substitution just as the 5 min stoppage time were called.

As far as I am concerned, when something fundamentally does not make sense, it's often preferable to say 'this makes sense in the world of this fiction' in the simpler and most economic way possible rather than wrap it in 25 layers of pseudo science that require long expositions. Also note that...

An american was offside but far from the goal and not taking part in the action, while Dempsey was covered by a portuguese player who took too long to stand back up.

West Germany 1??"0 Austria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia And yes it is against the rules. There was also in an Euro (?) a match were both teams (from nothern europe) could go through only if they ended with 4-4 and I let you guess how it ended... I remember seeing that match and it...

I guess Christiano Ronaldo was tired of seeing Nani doing crap on the right wing. Anyway, it's a stay of execution for Portugal, because with Nani missing 90% of what he does, the 3rd choice Eder scared of being here and missing 90% of what he does and an off-color Ronaldo who can't get a...

On the first goal is sat down before Nanny shot and on the double save he anticipated in the wrong direction and it's a pure miracle he still managed to reach the ball. The portuguese think he is excellent and are looking forward to more great things from him in the 2nd half! Side note: the...

Well Korea got the early goal and the 3-2 was only prevented by a miraculous save by a defender on that fast corner that also surprised the director. Still, at 4-1 there was still the sense that Korea could fight back, which is pretty crazy for a soccer match. I am a bit sad we did not get a 4-3...

The presence or absence of LGBT themes/characters in a movie has no impact on its quality really, so it's not a question of being a fan of LGBT movies or not. What can be argued though is that some of these movies have a 'made by the community for the community' feel that can be alienating...

More than that: the Souls games are unconventional multiplayer games. They explore new ways for players to interact with each other within a game.

Very poor half by the south koreans. Poor controls, misunderstandings, misscommunications and poor choices kill them at both end of the field. The fact the algerian team had four players changed from their previous match and decided to play their regular offensive style also didn't help. The...

I voted for the Tenant so I can selfishly read in its french original!

If anything it shows how tough it is to call. We have a convenient video freeze at the moment of the pass, but I am not sure how the guy on the line checks both the alignment with the last defender and the start of the pass. Note he is probably blindsided here and I am not sure he is able to...

Was it really? Nigeria showed a lot more fire. 10 minutes away from an elimination Bosnia was still delivering a subdued and uninspired performance. A bit of a shame really, because they certainly have the potential to do a lot better than exiting the competition with two losses in two matches.

Nigeria looks a lot better than against Iran too, but it's true 1-1 would be more fair (and more accurate since there was no offside).

Calm down frqkjt, the match is over. Ghana will regret their 5 vs 2 that ended in an offside!

Wong Kar Wai's Happy Together. Pedro Almodovar's La piel que habito (The Skin I Live In). Xavier Dolan's Les amours imaginaires (Heartbeats) and Laurence Anyway (though I have not seen this one). Lionel Baier's Gar?on stupide (Silly Boy - made by a friend of mine and awarded in several...

Since there is a Maester trying to do a zombie mountain, I'll assume the story takes place in a world where a trained fighter is able to do some field work like applying a tourniquet. He does that, and suddenly he has hours to crawl back to his horse or to the road or simply call for help (the...

Such a cruel sport. Iran was really brilliant at times. Yes brilliant, because they managed to be very dangerous, several times, by playing very simply. Not very lucky that none of those opportunities resulted in a goal or that the referee did not give a penalty on the tackle in the box on...

The problem with this whole scene is that he does not look at all like he is going to die, making it all ambiguous.

I think Iran has the desire, but not necessarily the ability: they lose the ball so fast when they try to move up the pitch. I don't think they ever had he ball within the last 30 meters. They only managed to be dangerous with free-kicks and corners (and they almost scored!).

We let the board down because it was PnP RPG night and so I only saw the first half of Italy vs Costa Rica! If both teams played at about the same level they played their first match, the result is not very surprising.

The Wire is not eye-opening on the fact organized crime is organized. It's eye-opening on the realities of police work and the complexity of society. This show is without peer, simply because it's the only show that, once you have seen it, changes they way you see dozens of other shows on...

My favorite of his with Life Aquatic and Rushmore.

I am playtesting the beta of a friend's game and I am frustrated because I spent a dozen hours on it and the ending is fubarded.

There are some weird tactical choices in this world cup: Spain plays Chile, a team were all but the keeper are well bellow 6', yet insist on playing on the ground. Japan plays Greece and they insist on playing crosses high in the air that the tall greek defenders catch 99.9% of the time...

If you buy 4 hours can you 'upgrade' to 7 days for the price difference or you need to pay for the full 7 days?

It's not like Suarez had 15 opportunities during the match. The problem is that he does not need many to score.

Nothing has been fixed in english tennis on a systemic level. A scottish guy happened to have good dispositions for the sport, be the son of a tennis coach and then went to spain as a junior to try and fulfill his potential. That's an outsider. The system produces guys like James Ward or Daniel...

A very significant portion of the budget of 'normal' movies of the blockbuster is taken by digital special effects. A CGI movie is digital special effects from the first frame to the last. It takes a lot of artists and animators and a lot of time on render farms, which is also very costly.

Yeah! That's the spirit!

These CGI don't draw themselves! Looking at some other CGI movies, Rio 2: $100 million, Mr Peabody and Sherman: $145 million, Frozen: $150 million.

Edge of Tomorrow!

It really was not. Just for you I made some math: In 2012, 2013 and 2014 (so far), I have seen a total of 366 recently released movies. Obviously that implies all types of movies, with only minimal filtering. Prometheus is only one of 7 movies to which I gave the lowest grade in my scale...

The odds of seeing that mediocre Brazil lose to that terrible Cameroon to allow Croatia and Mexico to go through seem sadly slim.

Considering how mediocre Brazil has been I am not sure fighting like hell to avoid them is such a good idea. That said, Group B gets the shaft, because the third matches of Group A is played after theirs, so they are blindsided.

Akinfeev was just yesterday! Anyway I missed two games so far in the whole world cup and it had to be the Netherland vs Australia game

Korea need to stop this sterile lateral passing nonsense and use all the space they are given to penetrate. They have only been dangerous when there was movement.

Whaaaat? I was not dissing the Great Ochoa (who is currently looking for a club btw), I just found it funny that the putative champions can't score against the keeper of a lame french team. They certainly made him shine though!

You can't score against the great Ochoa! Keeper of the mighty AC Ajaccio that just got relegated to the french 2nd division after suffering 72 goals in 38 matches! More seriously, that first half was very entertaining.
