Official Spider-Man 3 Thread [big spoilers within]
Mokong replied to arab_freak's topic in General Chit Chat
Yeah, having them do that in this film i guess it was the only conclusion he could have. Like i said before, they should have had Harry go insane like he's meant to, have him team up with Sandman, save Venom till that last moment so he can be used as the main villian in part 4 and the symbiote becomes the main story arc for the 2nd trilogy, have Harry go to mental home, and then maybe in part 4 or maybe even 5 he teams up with Peter. -

Ah i knew i was getting something confused, cheers. And yeah yer probably right on the cost of doing a shuttle scene, (or maybe they were just lazy ) still though what they did do just didn't have any reason to it i felt. Probably would have been better if it attacked Peter there and then instead of waiting like 5 scenes to make it's move. -
Official Spider-Man 3 Thread [big spoilers within]

Ok i just got back from watching it. It was good but nowhere near the greatness of the first 2. I guess most of the problems I have with the film come from "why the frack did they go so far away from the comic book" kinda stuff. 1st case, the symbiote coming to earth, no drama or back story about it, just a small meteor happens to land in the park near where Peter and MJ are hanging out. In the comics/cartoon it came from the spaceship of JJ's Son as he's returning from space, the ship goes out of control on the wa back, Spidey saves the day and symbiote gets him. I wanted THAT SCENE, i thought they would have done that given the fact the introduced JJ's astranuat son in the second film. Then add to that the total under-use of Venom, I mean come on they basically pissed all over the character, his personality wasn't right, yeah he was angry and pissed off, but still didn't act like venom should have. They few times he did talk he refered to himself as "I", he's supposed to refer to himself as "we". And he wasn't even refered to as Venom in the film? Again I was expecting a great "WE ARE VENOM" line, like when Spidey first sees him, or when Spidey calls him Brock. They should have just kept him for the 4th film, like we all thought before that the film would end with Brock becoming Venom to set up the 4th film, like how the 2nd film ended with Harry finding out his dad was the Green Goblin. It just seemed like Venom was the "Pheonix" of this film, just there to draw the crowd, but they had no idea how to use him right. Which brings me to my next point, Harry, started off great then shoots off in a totally wrong direction. The amnesia thing could have been used so much better, i was expecting for it to lead to the goblin split personality. While we could see Harry becoming evil there was no sign of him going "mad" like his father, and that dual personality is integral to the Green Goblins character. But we got none of that either. -
Won't be seeing the film till Monday so holding off getting the game, but basically just want to ask, Wii controls, web-slinging in particular, will it make me feel like spiderman like i hope it will? And how does it actually work, do you have to press/hold a button while doing the motion, or is it just the motion? How sensitive is it, do you need to do a big movement or do short/small movement also work just as good?

Ok i only just realised this is coming out this month (remember i was away for 4 weeks and missed a lot of things), so this will be the Wii's first online game in Europe then? I see the term "friend codes" being used here, are ye refering to the Wii's "Console Code", did they actually go and use the DS "friend code" system, and Wii games will indeed have different codes each time also?
-
It's out tomorrow, but i can't see it till Monday, DAMNIT, but if i planned my holiday better and was still over there (in the Philippines) I would have seen it already as it opened there on May 1st, lucky sods

I think (or hope), what they really meant was since UC is telling pretty much all the RE stories we've had so far, they want to be able to attract more than hardcore RE fans with it, and use it as a way to introduce RE to the "new-gamers" that the Wii has generated. At least that's what I hope they meant. And as long as the parts that take place between RE3 and 4, tell a good story on the downfall of Umbrella, and they finally feature Ozwell Spencer, and tell us what happened to Rebbecca after RE1 and Billy Coen after Zero. I'll be more than happy. (But that might be a bit too optimistic)

That first picture looks more like a computer model than artwork

For something to happen there must be a cause, and that cause is a reason. You can look at it in many ways, from god, to fate, to a persons own will and desire to make something happen. It comes down to each persons perception. As for "bad things" on large scale, like the recent event in Kent. To apply the term to it is more to say how the people effected by it are changed by it, how will they shape their lives from that experience and if because of that they move forward to do something good or great with their lives, then that is a reason in itself

Pictures From My Holiday (Possible 56K Warning)
Mokong replied to Mokong's topic in General Chit Chat
Only time will tell i guess, haha I'm hoping sometime in the next 2-3 years, just having some issues with money and imigration red tapes -
Hi Guys, in case some of ye didn't notice I been on holiday in The Philippines for the last 4 weeks. Just got back last Friday night and here's some photos for ye to look at April 1st - Sarabia Manor Hotel, Iloilo (http://www.sarabiamanorhotel.com/) So I had planned to take my fiancé Joy to an Island Resort for 2 night on April 2nd, so we decided to stay in a hotel on the 1st and a rep from the resort picked us up at the hotel to take us to the resort the next morning (which invovled a taxi, a pumpboat to Guimeras, taxi across Guimeras and another pumpboat to the island, only took 1 hour 30mins). The one night at the hotel in an Executive Room cost i think 2300peso which is around 40 euro So the pic below is the room in the hotel And this is the view from the rooms balcony over the swimming pool And this is by the pool in the evening time April 2 - 4: Costa Aguada (http://www.costa.com.ph) So then we spent the next few days at a resort called Costa Aguada, was great. The island is totally private, over 1000 hectors all owned by one family who built the resort also. The resort can has enough cottages for over 200 people but there was only about 40 when we were there. It was nice a quite but lots to do if you want. Pictures at our cottage Pictures from the resorts Warf, of the beach, the swimming pool Here's a pic of some of the staff waiting for new guests to arrive, when they do they are welcomed by the staff singing a song. This is one of the many Japanese bunkers left on the island from World War 2 Here's some pics of when i went horseback riding, Joy only got a pic on the horse but didn't ride it cuz she was scared she'd fall off This is the last night we had there, we ate our dinner next to a bonfire set up (cost 300 peso, approx 5 euro) Next is a couple of pics at the Church in Joys hometown of Miag-Ao, I just love this building it's magificiant looking up at in in real life and hopefully this will be where the wedding will be when the day finally comes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miag-ao%2C_Iloilo#Miag-ao_Church April 16: Igbaras (http://www.igbaras.com) These are a few pics of the small party i had with some of my cousins on my last night in my mothers hometown where I stayed. We had beer, rum, bbq pork and karaoke and a good laugh. April 18: Tagaytay (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagaytay) and Enchanted Kingdom (http://www.enchantedkingdom.com.ph/) We spent the last few days in Manila and on the 18th drove to a place called Tagaytay, the first two pics were taken at the "Peoples Park in the Sky" where you get a great view of the Taal Volcano, and the 3rd pic was taken at a place called "Picnic Grove". After Tagaytay we went to a theme park called Enchanted Kingdom for the rest of the day, brilliant time, of course it has all the regular types of rides theme parks have, plus there's paintball, go karts and ATV's, once you pay admission (500 peso per person, approx 7.50 euro) all rides are free, expect the 3 i mentioned above. Paintball is 100 peso (approx 1.50euro) for 20 bullets, 105 peso for 30 and 120 for 50, Go-Karts 210 peso (approx. 3.35euro) for a single seater, 320 peso for a two seater, for 9mins. ATV's 200 peso for a single seater, 300 peso for two seater Here's some pics of the paintball, we played 2 games, 2 vs 2, you can see in the 2nd game my cousin managed to smack me with a perfect head shot April 20: Airport And finally a shot at the airport going home Also there'll be vids going up on my Youtube, the first of which is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6iygEdIUl4 More to come soon

Figures, they would have to go a add Link to the Past to the VC the day before i go on holiday, ah well i'll just D/L it when i get home in 4 weeks, then grin from ear to ear just because i can play all home console zelda games on my Wii -

Yes, wicked to see Anderson on board for even just one of the films. Why did Sci-fi even bother to cancel the show if they were gonna show the rest of the season?
-
I don't mind the look of the robot forms, i get what he's saying about "boxy" looking, but you'd think they could have made them similar so we would recognise them without a second thought. But i think the change of the vehicle forms is what's hurting the fans the most. On a side note... Oh, I'd like to Transform Her :awesome:

OMG, the Turtles NES game, i had that back in the day, i remember that dam level defusing the bombs so well, i also remember i never completed it.... I'll likely d/l it sooner or later (need more points) to see if i can finally beat it -
shame the vids have no sound (or was that just me?) Certainly looking like it's coming along nicely/interestingly if it is real

I've not heard of this before, more info please

It was an alright finale, but felt more like a season finale rather than a series finale, but i guess that's how it was orginally planned afterall. Was a bit shocking what happened to the Asgard, when the epsiode started i thought it would end with Sam finding a way to save them. And I can't believe they had the nerve to reference the "The Fifth Race" episode, in the last episode, it's like just reminding us that we have still never seen the Furlings (unless there's some magical episode i missed somewhere). Well at least we still have the movies to look forward too, lets hope their as good as they deserve to be and pull off some memorable moments

I'll take one ep of teal'c goodness, it is better than zero, INDEED: peace: Though one would think given Jacksons character he would be jumping at the chance to move to Atlantis.... ... i just don't want to see it really end, it's like losing a friend:heh:

WOHOO, at last i pulled off a 2120 air spin, i smacked right into a tree a second after landing, but still what a fracking rush it was, haha
