    I've heard of people killing someone and burying them under a patio, but i've never heard of someone killing an engine and burying it there! i mean you can just drop it off at a scrappers, ifyou did that with a body there would be issues but an engine no probs

    The activity stream that exists on all themes...?

    I think i missed the word AND between Switch theme and discussing the new new posts

     

    Has anyone noticed on the main site, where it shows recent posts its not wrapping text right? the latest post was Happenstance, and his user name blurred into the text in the next column

    Saw this at the weekend and loved it. Thought Gal Gadot and Chris Pine had fantastic chemistry and loved the scenes that they shared together. The action was really enjoyable and the plot wasn't convoluted or messy. It just had a really nice flow to it.

     

    Could have easily got another ticket on the way out and watched it again. :D

    I didn't really want to re-buy Half Genie Hero, but I'm going to have to sometime. I've wanted a Risky Boots game for ages, and that's exactly what the DLC delivers!

     

     

    *sigh* fine i'll buy the game wayforward you don't have to twist my arm

    What a pile of crap! Everyone loved Black flag because it was a strong single player experience, which seamlessly allowed on land hand to hand combat, exploration and adventure, swimming AND naval combat to explore the high seas

     

    And what do UBI soft think everyone wants when they ask for basically black flag 2.0 without the assassins? just the naval combat! more like Black flag 0.5!

     

    All they needed to do was use every asset of black flag and give it its own story (no animus shit) take it out of reality a bit (krackens etc) and maybe add multiplayer.

    I complained, a lot of people complained, the staff gave us all free tickets so that's nice but I feel sorry for the showcase - they easily gave out 20 free tickets, that's around £200-250 of lost revenue all because of some idiots who should be banned. Worst part for me was him basically using his child as a human shield from getting smacked by a bloke after the film, we were outside with staff an angry customer said he should pay for our tickets or just never come with a baby's, it was at this point he made the jibe about it being a kids film, but did so in an aggressive manner and doing that sort of half headbut motion toward they guy, with his daughter on his shoulders, so no reasonable person would actually fight such a bloke.

     

    But anyway I really did enjoy the movie, planning on a second viewing this week, frankly if justice league flops I'd be happy for just a Wonder Woman series of films

    I loved the film despite an awful cinema experience - a family brought a baby, which got restless so to sooth it, they gave it a tablet put on a cartoon at full volume for the last 45min/hour of the film. The ignored staff and then shouted at people to grow up as it was a kids film so we had no right to complain

    I finally got around to watching this yesterday and saw it with a friend who is also a huuuuuge fan of the Alien series.

     

    We all virtually agreed that it was a bit shit.

     

    I'll spoiler tag it just in case:

     

    First off...when you have an actor with the calibre and star quality of someone like James Franco, having him in the film for a max of 45 seconds is just...a bit random and a bit shit. Don't know what the whole point of that was. See Interstellar for how to do unexpected/surprise cameos.

     

    The CGI in this film is dire, notably the scenes with the Neomorphs (whut?) and finally the Xenomorph chestbursting scene. Also disliked how the creatures moved.

     

    The character development in this film is woeful. This is it summed up:

     

    Character A is in love with character B. B has died, therefore A is now sad.

     

    That's it.

     

    It's also predictable as fuck. You know when exactly each character is about to die (when they decide to "wait here" or "go there alone") and each death scene is just underwhelming and a bit shitty. Zero tension throughout the movie.

     

    I don't know what Ridley is trying to achieve with these films. Is he really going to all of this trouble of creating 3 or 4 films just to answer the question of how the pilot ended up where it did in that derelict in the original Alien? Because if he is...then he's a fucking idiot as sometimes mysteries are good in film. Explaining every little detail shatters that illusion.

     

    Overall, I wouldn't really recommend it. Fans are either crying out for a film like the original Alien, or Alien V. This is neither. I don't know what this is. There are just as many bad Alien films as there are now good ones.

     

    Well i saw Covenant and i'm disappointed, it had a decent enough cast of main characters (aside from the Cannon fodder), well maybe two good actors, the sets and props seem brilliant and in keeping with the universe (aside from mother being more advanced) and Fas is always good to watch - but it felt disjointed, like scenes were created before a plot to tie them together.

     

     

    I was left with far too many questions, far far too many

    Why were the scientists complete idiots - no hazard protection on an unknown world? no scans of pathogens and caution around plant/wild life? Christ they seem like they were in left over rebel soldier costumes from Rogue one, just wandering around on an alien world having a piss in the woods trampling big bulbous mushroom pods, what can go wrong?

     

    The pilot locked the other woman in the room with the backburster? no "his back exploded leave the room i'm getting a gun!" nope, just lock the door and then listen to the protests, could have let her out and then locked it again!

     

    Why the hell was all the glass on windows, doors and space vehicles so weak a headbutt could crack it? Single glazing in space?

     

    Why didn't we explicitly find out how Shaw (the more interesting heroine) actually died? she seemed ill in the promo, did she die and David went over the edge deciding when the only person who showed him love and kindness died revealing the fragility of human life it should all die? or did he just snap and rip her jaw off (as depicted in a hand drawn picture)

     

    What did he use her body for? was she used as a host to create the Xeno eggs? the first 'Alien Queen'?

     

    Was that actually the Engineer homeworld? the aliens didn't seem the same as the Engineers, they were human sized (or their corpses were), so was the architecture, so was it just another of the Engineers experiment worlds? only they had been visited by the Engineers? (it looked like they were worshiping the engineer ship).

     

    If it was the only Engineer world, then how did the Juggernaught ship end up on LV-426? with a chest burst Engineer no less! Hell even if it wasn't then how did that happen? are we expected to learn more in the next sequel?

     

    Why was the Alien not quite right? it wasn't as mechanical looking as it was in Alien (back spikes, pipes etc) are we to assume/expect David will experiment more and perfect the Alien? will he himself integrate his own Synthetic life into them? it seems inevitable that they will turn on him and no longer ignore silicone life (Bishop didn't get a pass did he?)

     

    Maybe he'll create a queen to allow the Alien to reproduce using his DNA and her will and control over the Xeno's will superceed his own (Motherhood/Fatherhood themes) and he'll meet his demise at the hands of his creation, paralleling his own fall in regards to Engineers>Humans

     

    How was it not immediately obvious to them it was David near the end? he wasn't healing and he'd freaking just shown he healed quick, the crew must have known?

     

    and Why even have Noomi and James Franco in the film?

     

    ehh its a solid 6/10 movie that whilst i enjoyed it, it just needed work or a lot of plot is on the cutting room floor

    I do not like the look of the Klingons they look like someone got the JJ universe Klingons and microwaved the prosthetics!

     

    other than that though it looked good, interesting how we may not have seen the Destiny in it (if you zoom in on bits you see a different ship name/registry in some scenes)

    I'm glad someone mentioned that. It truly is disgusting. Poor Eliwood.

    Some of the artwork in this game is really nice, and then 5 minutes later, you could find something that cancels out all that nice.

     

    Guess it can't be helped when all sorts of different people do art for loads of characters. No consistency.

     

    The art style is all over the place, even characters within the same game can be wildly different! the style that Arthur is looks terrible, like it was drawn with a thick marker pen, which in comparison to the very game like and the very artistic styles, make it look even worse
