    Oblivion - Tom Cruise goes WALL-E

    I dug the ending, but was bored most of the other time.

    JL: The Flashpoint Paradox.

    The movie was pretty darn violent. Seeing Wonder Woman behead Aquaman's wife and kill a child was disturbing.

    JL: The Flashpoint Paradox.

    Has this whole new 52 thing not been well received? I honestly haven't followed comics in quite a few years. I think I stopped around Infinite Crisis.

    JL: The Flashpoint Paradox.

    I enjoyed the hell out of this. So much so I went ahead and pre-ordered the BluRay.

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    Theoretical Physicist. Which superhero character do you most identify with?

    The Astronomy Thread

    That was my understanding. There are no close-by quasars, only very distant ones. Which, obviously, means many billions of years ago that it occurred.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Yeah, I had a class with some blacks from the Congo. Really smart guys and you can tell they were there tolearn. They took the studies seriously.

    Gaming on Linux for n00bs

    Doesn't OpenGL have less visual effect features than DirectX? When I used to mess with Windows-on-Linux gaming, admittedly years ago, there was a definite visual quality difference in favor of Windows.

    Siberia - NBC

    Only two episodes so far, but as a Blair Witch fan (original, anyway) I'm really digging this. Definitely has a Lost meets Blair Witch vibe. I hope the production costs were low enough so NBC won't care about ratings too much.

    RIP Giantbomb's Ryan Davis

    http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/ry...013/1100-4685/ No details on cause of death. But the guy was pretty big so kinda easy to guess.

    chrome or firefox?

    Firefox on Windows, Chrome for my Linux boxes/VMs. Two must have add-ons for Firefox that don't exist (as far as I'm aware) for Chrome: Speeddial and DownThemAll. Big annoyance with Chrome-- when you download a file that big ass toolbar thing appears at the bottom. Fucking can't stand...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Playstation Store is clunky as shit.

    Trying really hard not to fuck anyone or get them fired but...

    Interesting story. I've frequented many a fast food joint and I don't ever recall getting uncooked food. Complaining isn't being "white trash" unless you're trying to obtain unreasonable gains. But, as they say and kinda applies: "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me."...

    How do you prefer your steak?

    Slightly burnt.

    Man of Steel

    Actually, no I don't. I was under the impression that Superman has neverdirectlykilled anyone or anything. And I'm speaking of the primary universe Superman -- not some alternate Earth storyline.

    Man of Steel

    Just got back from seeing this -- I don't know what criteria classifies someone as a "huge" Superman fan, but I will say he is my favorite out of all superheroes. I often watch the animated movies and loved the character during Justice League / Justice League Unlimited run. That said, I...

    The Last of Us

    NaughtyDog is also the creator of the absolutely amazing 3DO title "Way of the Warrior" (refer to my amazing avatar).

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    It's 9:11 EST and I'm not seeing shit! UStream is borked?

    Revolution

    Pretty good finale. I hope they don't press the "reset button" -- also hope Philly and Georgia actually do get nuked. That would be pretty ballsy. AND, looks like Romney eventually DID become president:

    .GIF - Jiff or Giff?

    In my MANY years of computing I've never heard it pronounced with a hard-"g". Always as "jiff".

    Bates Motel

    It was renewed. Great series, have really enjoyed this one. Also, I don't think Norman did it.

    24: Legacy

    Even though the series got a little long in the tooth, I still enjoyed it. Would love to see it return. And Tony probably needs a job too.

    So, is The Machine free from being reset every 24 hours?

    Grimm

    And I'm glad they used the story to get Nick and weird-eyes back together RATHER than creating some new rift. Good epsiode, I enjoyed it. Past couple were rather boring.

    Iron Man 3 [Spoilers Everywhere]

    I thought 3 was mediocre at best and my least favorite of the "triology". Beefs I had, in no particular order:
