Paj!

I used that as an example for a reason, that tupe of film. Action films = Action games = same feeling I'm sure. I don't think there are many games that can match films on an emotional/experiential level in much other than pure spectacle. I've been out of games for a few years though.

Cinema/film is also an artform. I don't see games as one (yet). There're pretty games, interesting visually and how they tell a story, but it's only ever really relative to other games, surely? I fail to see how a game could replicate the experience and artistry of, say, Blue Valentine. Because it doesn't translate into a game. It's meant to reflect back at us, and we're left with a mix of emotions/feelings, maybe thinking about our own lives. It's passive for a reason. You're probably talking money though/industry terms.

It didn't agree with me. The soundtrack worked well yeah, had stunners in all corners. Come on Bjork. Come on Emiliana Torrini.

ReZ is right in order of quality. The Delia one doesn't quite work as well, but I loved; "And if you can't get hold of one, you can just use a wooden spoon."

It's not very good. If it had more of a sense of knowing about it, or was just more camp or just fun, then we could talk. I'm all for stylised/glossy rubbish, mediocre or bad films that have a style that makes them stunning in that respect. Like, Batman and Robin is an amazing film when you start to accept the world it's set in and everything that happens. It's hilare./stunn'. It's just like...don't make a bad film that takes itself seriously, plz. God I hope Man of Steel is good. I have a feeling it will be (not on Nolan's Batman level though).

Hey sluts, sorry I've been so inactive, been preparing for/leaving for/moving into my new flat in London. I'll try and be more active.

My favourite. I just love Lisa Williams. And the 'break' referred to at the start is when she randomly goes to a card shop and stops someone to dredge up really sad memories and ruin their day. I forgot how stunned I am by her hair too. "I thought I was going to fall on the floor." *expressionless*

I've always been fascinated by it/the concept. I think it can be disgusting (that Popoff guy) or fairly inoffensive (as the article notes near the end). Last summer was ALL about Lisa Williams. I love her show (just for the jokes. Her body shape. The fact she's british in California. Her hat/s.). She was 'good' too, at being 'psychic'.

Why is no one reading Suicide Squad, but reading shyt like Grifter? Lleh ot og lla nac uoy.

Yeah, I was chatting to the guy in Forbidden Planet and he was like 'If you haven't read it already, read Animal Man', then we had a chat about how good it was, the old series etc etc and he mentioned they were getting a second printing.

You went to win, to fight, to conquer, to fly.

Laura Marling is the best young artist in the UK. Fuck Adele when talking about young artists who seems wise beyond their years. Adele's done. Done in. Seriously. So bored of Adele. And like...Ed Sheeran. Go away. Not interested in you or your shitty drugangel song. /I'll listen to your album to give you a fair chance. But grudgingly.

Can someone tell me if this works on Mac or not before I bother downloading?

Reading Uncanny X-Force 15 gave me chills. It's like watching a BRILLIANT movie. I'm so not in a Marvel mood, but this is the pinnacle, really. Everything about it is

Yay Hole. Though Live Through This >>>>>>>> Celebrity Skin.

No one liked the look of Suicide Squad, but most were surprised at it's non-shitness. Much more genuine bad-assery (or hints of future) than in Deathstroke (IMO).

No. The only reference to anything DC-wise was to Clayface. (briefly) And he's still called Slade/looks the same. Didn't even mention the Titans. So not sure if this is a hard reboot or not. (Won't really know until Teen Titans comes out...thought Bette Kane mentioned being a member in the past in Batwoman 1)

Deathstroke was really boring. The rest all told me things. I need to fly back to FP/a comic shop and buy Suicide Squad. I think Suicide Squad is what you hope Deathstroke will be, Daft.

I watched the extended director's cut of Daredevil late last year/earlier this year. I didn't notice a significant difference BUT then I didn't hate the original film. It wasn't offensively bad, just blahmediocrenothing. Better than Elektra... --- Resurrection Man was brilliant! READ IT./ not brilliant. but really good, and I'm so ready for the next issue. As was Batwoman. The most beautiful comic art I've ever seen? Possibly. Deathstroke was nothing. It just has nothing interesting to say. Sure it's a first issue, but blah. Not bad or good. Demon Knights is potentially interesting, with the cast of characters. Hey Ystina! Hey Madame Xanadu. I read the first page of Superboy and really couldn't be arsed. --- RE: Waller, they obviously wanted a Waller that reflected the one shown in Green Lantern, only younger and sexier. God you guys are boring these last two days. Where's the nu52 chat? --- I love how RPG'ish this is. Come on everyone's choice weapon. I love them all. You can tell the most effective part combo (of 4) would be Iron Man, Red She-Hulk, Dr. Strange and Spidey.

Read so far + thoughts: Batman & Robin 1 Yeah, glad I didn't buy this. Nothing wrong with it, just not particularly interesting. As you said, Happenstance, I'm kinda over the 'taming' Damian by now. Even though he and his dad haven't worked together much officially...Damian was past that while with Dick (I felt). Story wasn't very interesting. Red Lanterns Fine/nothing. I have no attachment to the GL universe and this won't convert. Probs won't read the others until I hear stunning things. Suicide Squad I liked this! I kinda wish I'd bought it today. Really surprised, it has bad press already and people were complaining about the redesigns, losing Secret Six etc...but it was fun/entertaining. I might even buy it still. Yeah, my fave of the three. I'm on the fence about Harley's redesign (it looks deviantart-esque). I love her and King Shark's presence though. Will wait for reviews of Demon Knights...I might buy that too. EDIT: Where do you guys get your comics online? (As in buy, to be sent to you) Disposable Heroes, while cheap, has epicly long delivery BUT now seems to be selling out of stuff, or just it isn't listed anymore. And eBay usually has lots of 'preorder' issue stuff but I can't find ANY for Wonder Woman and some others...and a copy of Suicide Squad issue 1 is going for £12..?? WTF.

Yeaaaaaaaah vote:Heroicjanitor I feel I've no purpose in this game right now. Other than to turn up and vote e'er so oft.

I bought Batwoman and Resurrection Man in town today. Had various others in my hand too, but just didn't feel like I truly wanted to pay for them. Suicide Squad I've heard is pretty rubbish but liked the idea of Harley Quinn, Red Lanterns I have little interest in but Milligan is a good writer, Batman and Robin has Damian...nyeeeeah. Glad with my choices. Haven't read 'em yet though.

She hates/hated it there and spent as much time as she could in Edinburgh. Animal Man was clearly ghost-written by R.L.Stun.

I'm such a Delta fan. Out of the Blue is perfection for me. Love that song. Really like a lot of her stuff.

Lol no, by using present tense, I mean I'm still doing shitty sketches of costume ideas. The focus/heroine is called Triumphtina (not sure what her powers are yet, other than generally being super), though..it might not be 'about' her, more about her impact. It's light-hearted/serious at the same time, but quirky and not giving a shit in an underground comics way. The opening page is a newspaper article/news reporter/someone saying/reporting "The Superman exists and he's a woman!" - playing on the "....and he's American!" quote from Watchmen. Plus we all love playing with genders ideas/it might set the tone. It's just a big joke. With some quite gruesome bits I've planned that'll make you cross your legs in horror. Triumphtina herself is Scottish. From the small town of Anstruther. Also home to the (voted) Best Fish & Chip Shop in the Uk. Her shorts bear the saltire.
