  1. Rate the last film you saw

    True. But that's about the only good thing about it. Oh yeah the Boston Tea party 'joke' was pretty funny too.
  2. Rate the last film you saw

    Really? Why? It certainly wasn't Natalie Portman's acting or the special effects for that matter. I must admitt the film's concept (governement should fear the people, not vice versa), though hardly original, was pretty intriguing.
  3. Rate the last film you saw

    V for Vendetta 3/10. Though I wasn't expecting much of the film it was actually worse than I would've thought. Too bad.
  4. Starcraft Ghost delayed to next gen

    Doesn't suprise me one bit to be honest. I kinda lost intrest in the game.
  5. Rate the last film you saw

    -Battle Royale II- 3/10 Poor directing, too long, a few nice ideas. -King Kong 2005- 1/10 A 200 milion B movie, an absolute terrible film, avoid at all cost. -Old boy- 8/10 Disturbing Korean film, I quite liked it. -Syriana- 8/10 Politics is a very dirty bussiness. Very good film, though the plot is sometimes hard to follow. May be too confusing for some.
  6. Cannabis

    Well not skunk anyway, a little too powerfull for me. I heard some crazy stories from people using it. I only smoke with select group of my friends which is about once a month or so. I started smoking at 16 btw.
  7. Cannabis

    I smoke it. I either use a waterpipe or, when none available, I will roll a joint. I prefer a waterpipe though, a lot healthier.
  8. Famous people - who have you met?

    Joe Pantoliano (Matrix, Sopranos), Peter Mayhew (chewbacca), Brad Dourif (Lord of the rings), Elijah Wood (Lord of the rings), Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger in 'Nightmare on Elm street', to name a few.
  9. Anime and manga discussion

    Dunno if it's been posted already but this is a link to the first ever footage/trailer of studio Ghibli's next animated feature 'Gedo Senki', set for to release later this year. Interestingly enough, this new film isn't directed by Hayao Miyazaki but by his son Goro. http://www.catsuka.com/news_detail.php?id=1140663861
  10. Bush does some good for once?

    Bush doesn't care about the enviroment, he simply doesn't like US dependancy on oil from the middle east. Why? Because only a week ago Iran threatened to raise the oil price if the US or Europe would dare impose sanctions upon the country.
  11. Anime and manga discussion

    I'll download what I can't buy in the shops.
  12. ´Cisco´ interested in buying Nintendo?

    A couple of years ago Microsoft made Nintendo an 27 billion offer and they flat out refused it. So...I'm not giving Cisco any chance at all.
  13. What if the worst happens?

    Your post is based on the misperception that profit equals succes. It doesn't. GC wasn't nearly as succesful as Nintendo wanted it to be, therefore it's a failure. It doesn't matter Xbox didn't make Microsoft any money: they achieved what they set out to do (gain a foothold in the market), therefore it was a succes. It's as simple as that.
  14. What if the worst happens?

    Lol, you shouldn't always believe the propaganda that's coming out of Nintendo hq. Nintendo is just a business, that means if some part of Nintendo doesn't turn in enough profit they'll just shut that particulary money drain down and go on further. According to Ninty themselfs the Rev will be considered to be a failure if it doesn't sell any better than GC. By that logic Ninty won't be making consoles if the Rev flops (it may very well happen). That doesn't mean they go out of business altogether though, they'll just cut their losses and focus on the handheld market, which is basickely what they're doing already. For their future in the market, it doesn't really matter if Rev turns in a profit or not. It's more important for Nintendo to expand their user base and the market as a whole.
  15. The worlds greatest breakfast?

    Is that even a question? Bacon and eggs ofcourse, the breakfast of champions.
