  1. Shopgirl A lilting, imperfect but ultimately highly effective romantic drama penned by Steve Martin. The script is littered with neat touches, the kind forged in Steve's early Hollywood hell raiser days, and the direction, editing and soundtrack are perfect and well complimented with the strong cast performances. The monologues are blunt, but are not enough to spoil a clever and sensitive film which messes with the cliches of the genre. The moral of the story? Men are flawed, spotty, emotional detached cretins. But, ladies, don't settle for anything less then what you need.
  2. Smutty as in I want to smother myself in olive oil and play "fighting" with someone.
  3. I'm feeling awful smutty t'night I am. No matter what I read, watch, or think about, it all seems to lead back to the same place.
  4. I'd like to tell you what I'm thinking, but that would be juvenile and chauvinistic.
  5. I've had a good day joking with friends in the garden. You know what isn't funny though? Anal retention.
  6. I was going to make a "women on top" gag, but everyone's sucked the fun out of it.
  7. Yay Bluey! I shall also raise a precariously large and life threateningly hot cup of tea in your hono... GAH MY EYES! MY SKIN! MY PRECIOUS SKIN!!
  8. Nah. What would happen is that the boards would soon become a place of calm and neat harmony, except in the moderator only boards, which would be full of polite but strained conversations masking dark conspiracy theories and demented power games.
  9. What I don't like is that this gives the industry and not the consumer control over where revenue goes. How do they monitor the most popular artists for example? Surely they'd just be guessing, handing cash over to the pop-rap-Xfactor-mime-shite producers and probably disadvantaging smaller artists? It's like a weird form of corporate Communism.
  10. I love the Keanu Reeves-esque emotion in the voice acting.
  11. Nuts, how'd I only get a draw out of that?
  12. I got up to that bit where
  13. You and Rez are the town fools. You get drunk a lot and keep accidentally getting into mischief which regularly brings great misfortune upon the town. In my head, you once accidentally urinated on a sleeping dragon and the whole village was nearly destroyed were it not for a mysterious stranger with a golden sword and breastplate who warded it off.
  14. Wall-E Superb, it works on so many levels. On the one hand it's quite a cheery romance, on the other, it's an unremittingly bleak warning as humanity continues to spiral into it's own commercial squalor. We had to skip early to catch a bus, but I can't imagine what it could do to spoil what had been a sublime and magical tale up until that point.
  15. Definitely getting Left 4 Dead, I'm moving into a house with a couple of mates with Xboxes, and this game is going to rule hard. I didn't particularly like GoW either.
  16. I've always analogised this forum as a village (New-Europe) living on the fringes of one of three war torn magical medieval dystopias, and then daydreamed stories out of that. Characters include Jordan (blacksmith) and his mildly unsuccessful Alchemy girl Lettice ("Look, it's blue!") Fierce, the mythical warrior, Artie and Dan, a pair of young, rambumtious twins, Eenuh the artist, Bluey the cross-ocean explorer, Raining the melancholic bar wench, Mr Fish the demented mayor, Rok the misunderstood rock monster, Vicar the Vicar, blah blah etc. and so on.
  17. <gets back, sees Dan's username> Congrats Braintwin! Congrats Dr. Fox!
  18. My team: Jordan: His mad tech skilz would come in handy if we needed to bust into secret zombie-making facilities, and he's worked customer support, so he should be well used to mindless monsters spitting and screaming at him. Dan Dare: Being brain twins, we could easily blast away any zombie hordes with our unstoppable psychic energies, but the others will have to hold them off while we hover in the air, our muscles bulging and screaming "kame-hame-ha" at each other for three straight episodes. martinist: "Just give me a gun and I shall shoot stuff." Suits me. He is my buddy after all. How else are we going to incorporate a scene where I have to shoot the zombified corpse of someone I love anyway?
  19. Europe Cost/month* Total cost* 1-month-plan € 14.95 € 14.95 3-month-plan € 12.95 € 38.85 6-month-plan € 11.95 € 71.70 12-month-plan € 10.95 € 131.40
  20. Lonely Guy Only Steve Martin, the true Steve Martin, the Steve Martin that used to run wild and free in the bush lands around LA and hunt yuppies for meat before he was finally subdued by daring executives and fed from a box made of money, only THAT Steve Martin could do a brilliantly surreal and hilarious comedy about loneliness and the related suicidal depression. Beats the shit out of Bowfinger.
  21. Anyway, yay! Weather's finally picked. Sunshine makes me happy! Currently enjoying a delicious nutella and peanut sandwich.
  22. They seem to be rather missing the point of homosexuality. "Since you lust for men, here's a steamy communal shower full of physically fit young males, who all suffer from the same urges. Make sure you help each other scrub up! I'll be back in twenty minutes, I'm trying to get this all-female cooking class to lick each other's cream puddings."
  23. Secret Rings was easily the best Sonic game in the last decade or so. Secret Rings was an OK game. OK, but not great.
