ok if you look at it that way, its a high budget Ferngully..... but we all know we liked ferngully.... and while you're at it, the airships looked like Halo relics, the mechwarriors main gun was a chainsaw gun from gears of war, and .... man were those arrows huge :) agreed, agreed, agreed. From wh...

^ I just got a 56" TV and Star Trek on blu-ray blew me away. I loved District 9 in theatres, it's an ASAP blu-ray pick-up (along with LOTR, Matrix, Watchmen, ...)

Cross-posting because I wouldn't want Geebs and the fanclub to miss my review in the Avatar thread Avatar: 8/10 James Cameron’s long-awaited Avatar, sold for months as a cinematic “game-changer,” is finally here, and both the best and the worst thing that can be said for the visionary director’s dec...

Short version: I saw it tonight and it was almost exactly what I had expected -- eye-popping action balanced against an embarrassingly cliché and overwrought storyline. Long version [mild spoilers] : Avatar: 8/10 James Cameron’s long-awaited Avatar, sold for months as a cinematic “game-changer,” is ...

Is this the role reversal game?

lol at the ostentatiously skeptical stupidity in this thread. Yes, it's Dances With Ferngully, but it's also James Cameron, so for every glowing blue bestiality scene there's going to be a vicious fucking gunfight. I'm as cynical as the rest of you when it comes to movies but seeing as Avatar is sol...

Nobody's seen any recent releases??? I went to THE ROAD last night, and absolutely loved it. 9/10. Nit-pick away: >:) John Hillcoat’s The Road begins on a poetic note with a triptych of colourful, static images like floral portraiture in veneration of the beauty of nature: sunlight through green lea...

haha a "pathetic postcount flame" but the 30-year-old med student or whatever the hell you are thinks

Get a grip. I'm not going to spend 4000 posts arguing the point with you, even if that's what you're after.

You've been the biggest twat on this forum for going on a decade now, and if you didn't like Brick it's probably because you're too full of yourself. You're the kind of person who shits on Tarantino (no I'm not a fanboy) to the extent where you won't even say a good word about Pulp Fiction, which m...

You realize that a reference to Brick as original (or even watchable) is a big, glaring beacon pointing you out as a total penis who should never, ever offer an opinion as to the quality of a movie, don't you? Come to think of it, you post like someone with a mouthful of marbles trying to cough up ...

Shit, "hermetic," I mix those two up a lot. Can't ever remember wtf hermeneutic means, either; it's something about philosophy or phenomenology.

Good catch.

District 9: 8/10 Aliens have been on Earth for 28 years. Not invaders, not even supplicants, they simply appeared here, stranded, and became terrestrial refugees. Mysteriously lacking leadership like isolated drone workers in an ant colony, they submitted to containment in a ghetto outside Johannesb...

G.I. Joe - 3/10

Feels like a 90s movie -- and I don't blame them for wanting to take it back to basics after level of inappropriateness and stupidity reached by Transformers 1 & 2, but this movie has nothing on Independence Day.

At any given time of day only 1% of people are using a computer???

I am not American and I'd say I'm more critical of America than the average person (which is not to say that I am ever critical for no reason whatsoever, i.e. out of blind hatred or somesuch thing), but I can't say I have any complaints about the A-bomb. I'm not a history buff either, so someone wil...

Aeon Flux tells a mediocre story, but looks AMAZING, so if you just want eye candy, I'd highly recommend it. House of Flying Daggers is also a very visually lush film. Planet Earth, as people have said. And if you waste time on 10,000 BC you're an idiot. EDIT: Oh yes, and I cannot recommend WALL-E s...

I missed the Paul Jaquays era, although he did return once in a while after I started posting. I am certain QKQ was a mod at the same time as snickelfritz, before plan B was given the job (though that may not be the exact/direct succession). That was around the time I joined, which was back when CB ...

Haha ... even just posting in here is bringing back a lot of memories. I wonder what ever happened to QKennyQ and ... shit I can't think of the other LE Mod from way back.

Usage: C:\[dir\to\q3map2]\q3map2.exe -convert -format map C:\[dir\to\bsp]\mapname.bsp This worked fine for me; now I'm just killing time fixing textures etc. GKY, did you try the above to decompile to MAP? It threw errors for me till I realized I was omitting the word "map" (a rather cruc...

Okay, well I managed to get a MAP file out of it, but it's error-ridden so I can't even open it up in GTK. If I look into it with textpad, I see that all the texture information is missing. I guess I'm using a crappy old version of the process; I remember someone had refined it until it reverse engi...

I've switched computers a couple times since last I mapped, so I lost all the source files for the maps I made. Playing QuakeLive has made me want to rejigger one or two of them, so I remembered bsp2map and how advanced it had gotten by the end of the q3 era; but now I can't seem to make it work. I'...

Terminator Salvation: 5/10
Franchise is dead. RIP and stay down.

Drag Me To Hell: 6/10
This isn't Evil Dead -- even though it wants to be.

Up: 7/10
Not Wall-E quality by any stretch.

All underwhelming. The Pixar short feature before Up ("Partly Cloudy"), however, is utterly amazing.

Fucking hell.

Most of the material I've seen of him suggests he has the intellectual capacity of George W. at about 10 years old. That's still significantly higher than the intellectual capacity of George W. at about 60 years old. I saw Wolverine the other night, I'll give it a lol out of 10. And not in the good...

I haven't been paying any attention to the news so this was the first I'd heard, but for what it's worth, a search of Google News turned up this:
