    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...

    The Matrix (1999)

    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 character is played by two different actors. Your downer for the day.

    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. I totally can't stop watching the show which is I why I stopped watching the show last season with three episodes to go and had to download them yesterday to catch up and then download the premier (none of which contributes to ratings) so I can make one post and now with this...

    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?

    I had stopped watching midway through the first half of season three and caught up yesterday to then watch the premiere and the writing is just sobad.Whoever is choreographing the action needs to be fired. The show's attention to detail is piss fucking poor. I hardly understand why anyone is...

    what are some of the worst games you've ever played?

    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.

    I would give a bunch of it away in small chunks to people who put out content on the internet that I like very much, local charities, and a few other charities that I think do good work (those people who remove tattoos from ex-gang members comes to mind).

    I couldn't remember what I had disliked about FF8 so much until I got to the third disc with its awful and completely out of place quick time events. The game parts of FF8 also finally fall away completely and it becomes a visual novel where the only thing required of me is to move Squall around...

    They've printed effects like Gridlock before and they are usually houses in limited that show up here and there in Standard in sideboards. Skullcrack is a great deal like Flames of the Bloodhand and Flames saw some play so it seems safe to say that Skullcrack will see some play too.

    That's not the case at all. Not really. In sets from 3rd to Invasion Block you have things like quality hand destruction, mass land destruction (and 3 mana land destruction spells), other forms of mana denial, tutors, super good card draw, better counterspells, and the kid of acceleration they...

    Well, the only reason I bother to go after X-ATM092 is because I always do things that I only learned were possible years later. I always save Cid in FF6 for the same reason. I didn't even know you could do that until I read it in a magazine long after the game was out. X-ATM092 is worth 50 AP...

    As a kid playing FF1 I found what would later be called the Peninsula of Power while exploring and have always used it since to out level that awful marsh cave. That's about all you can do.

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    It is a legitimate complaint of the game that it allows a player to smash it over their knee before they've even seen another town without doing anything special. Unlock a couple GF abilities, play some cards, and refine some items and that's it. Even worse once you start to figure out the...

    I'm going to just assume that you are right about Double because FF8 hasn't been in my PS1 in three years and I'm not about to head over to gamefaqs for this thread but it doesn't actually matter because it doesn't change the fact that Draw sucks and the better way to get magic is to play cards...

    Bullshit. The only thing you have to figure out on your own is that using Draw sucks and playing cards is by far the best use of your time if you are trying to get magic. You don't have to optimize shit. Acquire the refinement abilities of the GFs that you have and then play cards rather than...

    Every game store in my area that ever dabbled into comic books died a terrible death. Walking in and seeing a wall filled with comics is like finding a lump in the shower. I hope it all goes digital.

    It makes perfect sense and it is a plan that is both simple and elegant. With comics it is true that they are not a cash cow but the intellectual properties of comic book characters can be incredibly valuable. The purchasing of Marvel by Disney gave them a massive pool of characters to make...

    That idea has logic I can follow so I am going to go with that over the people writing the comic have gone mad. It's still a pretty big Fuck You to the faithful readers of the comics if they are slowly shitting all over a beloved character due to a desire to regain the movie rights.
