    Played the 360 demo really solid. Combat was bloody, loud and kenetic. Graphics are shit hot, the effects are good and the audio seemed really good too. but buuttt release date sucks. I just spent £57 on Street Fighter so I'm not going to be picking this up for at least a month. GTA4 DLC is due soon too so that's another one.

    youi've not heard of it? It's so fucking good in a nutshell: a portrait of the crime ridden streets of West Baltimore writ large, shown through the ongoing conflict between the major crimes unit in the police department and the organised crime groups they're chasing. It's so much more than cops and robbers though. It's the most eloquent, absorbing and powerful television ever produced.

    absolutely quality. I fucking love Lost, me.

    Currently listening to a bit of Neil Young's After The Gold Rush utterly sublime bit of music happening here, seems. Such articulate, beautiful disapointment. Love, politics, people. It's a weary album, I suppose, following the optimism of the sixties. It's so wonderfully done, though. Sad people make pretty music.

    I never quite got the comparisons between Coldplay and Radiohead. Radiohead are one of the best rock groups ever and coldplay, like OW said, do nothing that even bears a passing resemblence to the ambitious, forward thinking and eclectic style Radiohead possess. They just peddle the mumsey middle ground and have never warranted the comparison.

    Rocky films start nosediving around III. I like the first few but 4 is shit and 5 is unbearable dross. the first one is actually pretty good though. Uncomplicated stuff but it's way more interesting than the later films.

    oui, oui. well, really it's tomorrow for the likes of us given time differences. very hyped. I think this is going to be spectacular.

    I think China would be good next. Very, very good actually shame I don't have a pc that can run empire though- last one I could play was Rome which was bloody brilliant.

    Doesn't stop Coldplay being shite though.

    bloody thieving students!

    yeah. the thing \is, the budget would be astronomical. Think about stuff like the fight with the reptiles or that aien army. Small scenes in the book and cheap to draw but on film that's more CGI than most films manage for the entire duration- and they don't even matter that much.

    It could be a good film. I dunno though- They'd have to make the origin film out of the first 13 I guess and if you think about it, that's a hell of a lot of narrative for 2 hours- especially with the almost annectodal structure with no major badguys and stuff like that.
  14. Dan_Dare
    aren't they working on a movie script?
  15. Dan_Dare
    not sure I entirely dig. It's nice n all but...well it's just the same art with dubbing...

    I'm planning on picking Invincible up on Play actually- I was just passing and figured I'd actually buy something from a real shop for a change. FP is Sheffield seems OK. I dunno though- I'm no expert and whenever I see alot of comic books in one place i always feel totally overwhelmed because I basically know fuck all about them in any meaningful sense. I'd like to, but I need some serious cash in hand to get involved.

    Congrats, Eenuh. That's absolutely awesome (can we see it?) Last night was quality. Friend's birthday + Drum N Bass night + loads of awesome people = win, yeah? fucking knackering though. I was up at 8 and went to bed at 4. Danced my adorable socks off too. Argh.

    Had a lol worthy trip to Forbidden Planet this week. I was thinking of picking up Invincible vol.2 so I wandered in. 'Have you got any of the Invincible hardcovers in?' 'they do hardcovers? we only have the tpb editions' 'oh, ok never mind. I'm after the 4th Joss Whedon X Men TPB too. you got that?' 'Oh, we only do those in Hardcover. sorry' gaaaah! did see something cool there though: Bendis' (I think) entire run on Daredevil in one hardback. It was absolutely awesome. £65 but it looked huge. At least 2 years run I'd guess at. Maybe even 3.

    try putting on some chilled music and doing absolutely fuck all for a bit. Lie on your bed and just take a break. or take a walk some place and come back. Regular breaks, done properly, are essentially revision tricks.

    yeeaaah boooiii! the wire is better but, tecnically you're still right- that's not on tv any more.
