About the Matrix, the crew was essentially paid peanuts. The first one was made with a meager budget for a movie of such ambition. Keanu signed on and decided to take a pay cut in order for the movie to get made. Instead of taking a big paycheck up front, he opted for a percentage of the...

Why does that chick's cooter have less hair than her arms?

He got a girl to vote out her own boyfriend. It was amazing.

Alexis is so hot

Friend of mine wrote for this. Pretty funny first episode, hope it holds up over the season.

They both had AIDS. They even made a sequel...Philadelphia.

It's really overblown. But, people gripe about him searching for daily doubles in the bottom 3 rows. Something like 90% of the daily doubles are in the bottom 3 rows (0% in row 1), so, of course, it makes sense to go for those questions first.

The movie was a mess. Reports are out that the actors were encouraged to improv a lot of the dialogue. They were asked to channel the character, and not worry about the script. Pretty much explains why some of the movie meanders and how the plot as a whole gets convoluted. Highlights were...

wheeee gimme! (prz?)

They already cast Benicio Del Toro to be The Collector (Thor 2, Guardians of the Galaxy), who they'll reveal to be Thanos. One of the Marvel writers slipped that Thanos will be the "centerpiece" of Guardians of the Galaxy. Del Toro/The Collector is getting top billing in the movie, and he's...

I think a lot of what they were trying to do with Harrow all season was to reinforce the overriding theme that there are no happy endings for the guys in this life. All season long, you have people trying to tie up loose ends so they can lead a happy life. Ultimately, the gangster life always...

Most addictive sport ever.

Doesn't help that she's as busty as a 9 year old boy.

3-star michelin is incredibly overrated. Difference between a 3-star michelin restaurant and and 1-2 star restaurants is that you sign your $300+ per person bill with a montblanc pen and the bathroom attendant sits around waiting to spritz you with cologne after you piss into a gold plated urinal.

Stop with the spam folder talk. Every time I see a comment like this, I check my spam folder, again, only to be disappointed, again.

There's a reason why Kodak filed for bankruptcy last year. So, I have a 18-55 zoom lens, and a 50mm/1.8 prime lens, and I was wondering what I should get after that? I was thinking a 55-300mm telephoto, but it's quite expensive. I use the camera for general usage, but find that the 18-55mm...

Her battle cry was even better.

Saw this movie on Saturday, and gotta say I was thoroughly entertained. I'm at a point where I feel like the stupidity/cheeziness of it was entirely intentional. It went so goddamn far adding every possible silly action movie trope. Hotshot hero has a tramatic loss due to his cockiness...

Got a bottle of this. Really good shit, smooth as silk, very malty and complex. It's like liquid velvet gliding down your throat.

I was being facetious.... clicker, keyboard turner, whatever. If you play mmos to a point where you devote your professional life to writing about them for little monetary reward, then you should do neither.

Yeah, I click my out-of-combat buffs, consumables, and transportation skills all the time.

That's a silly comparison. I expect media journalists and critics to have a good understanding of their specific media. I don't expect them to be able to craft their specific media. A movie critic doesn't have to be a good director, just like a gaming journalist doesn't have to be a good...

To a certain degree, the wildstar raid mobs are supposed to be somewhat random, in that abilities and environmental hazards are changed to add variance. Of course it's not truly random, since truly random would almost by definition mean un-tuned. What about modular dungeon design? Have a...

He wants Chipotle.

Right, I know what they've said, the point was all that does is lead to whining and quibbling. There's something to be said about achieving and giving people aspirations, but having 2 raid sizes is a decision independent of those things. All it does is create tension and butt hurt. You can...

Rift achievements also had some novelty cosmetic rewards. Titles and such, and if you completed all of the achievements for a raid, you'd get a fancy mount. Not really the greatest of incentives to be honest, just icing on the cake. All it did was give farm days a little more interest. As...

So fucking true. The only thing a 40man raid did was test your ability in logistics, advertising/recruiting for members, and patience. None of which were actual tests of in-game ability, or fight mechanics, etc. 40 man raiding also led to the constant revolving door for the mid to low level...

I have a feeling the segment of the population that doesn't have smartphones will raise a stink about it. Lotsa whiney people in this world. Good idea though.

Just wanted to chime in on the QQ fest about stress test. A whole lot more invites? Yeah, sure.

Has anyone tried the new set of Japanese whiskies hitting the market? I really love the Suntory Yamazaki 12 years, and was wondering if the Nikka stuff is worth checking out.

Well, you'll never get hidden bourbon regions, since it literally is only made in the US, and generally only in Kentucky. A fairer comparison would be comparing champagnes, since that only comes from a specific region. You pay more, you get better, nothing flies under the radar since it only...

Got myself a bottle of Deschutes Black Butte Porter 24th Anniversary Edition. Pretty impressive bottle of beer. Highly recommend it, lotsa chocolate and malty flavors. Pretty pricey bottle, but at 11% alcohol and with that intensity of flavor, a little goes a long way.

I didn't post in the Ravven thread, but I'm posting here for posterity's sake...

Buy the cheapest bottle of vodka available, and then run it through a brita filter a few times.

If price doesn't matter, I'd go Blanton's over Buffalo Trace. Again, same distillery, one is just the higher quality hooch from the same place. All of the Buffalo Trace bourbons are top notch, it just depends on what you want to pay. Buffalo Trace, Blanton's, Elmer T. Lee, Pappy Van Winkle...

best is incredibly subjective. What sort of party, what do you have, what do people like to drink? Lotsa shit to consider.

Buffalo Trace is good, as well as Blanton's from the same distillery. Quite a bit more than a bottle of maker's. Probably double the price at 750.
