Has anyone seen this yet? The moment when Is so badass. fucking awesome. I think that honestly anyone should see this as a popcorn movie. Just fast-forward to the action sequences (which i think take up about an hour of a 1.5 hour movie, so it shouldn't be hard) It's such a fun, kickass movie. Any fight sequence in the Matrix is its bitch.

Word on the street is I don't contribute.

you should randomly advise people to Czech themselves before they Wrech themselves. -
Your team is awesome. I could've traded Tiki Barber and either Marvin or a 1st round pick (after every team takes 4 keepers) for Steve Smith. I would've according to my philosophy of consolidating for keepers, but fuck that. I;m the highest scoring team in the league, and I have a team that can definitely take the championship. A top 3 QB (Carson) 3 top-10 RBs (LaMont, Tiki, Larry Johnson) Marving Harrison I'm a bit week at WR2 (Kimmy Smith, Jurivicius, Braylond Edwards) But I think I have about a 50/50 chance to win it all, and nasty keepers.

Ooh, the Body Snatchers in the 70's version were great too. They know who's an alien, but you don't, until they point, scream, and then knock you out and suck your insides out.
-
Yeah, they get to me more. If you mean literal monsters, Alien, The Thing from, um, Carpenter's 'The Thing', Brundefly's a really good one, Also the ghosts from Ju-On were freaky as hell. Hollywood producers seriously need to just pay some licensing rights to Konami to use the 'Silent Hill' monsters in their movies.

I would say that the Alien is the coolest looking. Giger's the man, and the design's been ripped off again and again. Michael Myers was awesome for the one movie. Completely silent, essentially a blank template for a face, not very smart, but simply dedicated to killing. Leatherface in the original TCM still fucks with me. He's spastic, violent, big, and he absolutely does not fuck around. People are just meat to him. The worst has to be Henry of Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, though.

The OaO Arrested Development Season 3 thread
Special K replied to Gary Floyd's topic in Television & Film
GOB's "as a.... PLACEHOLDER" line was so corny and awesome. I love that GOB's being a magician lends itself to him acting like such a theatrical drama queen. -
I'll start with one of my favorite characters, who basically personifies this thread. Venom. Venom (at least Brock-wise) had a shit origin. Yet, you had this character who was basically stronger and more vicious than S-M, but he also had this just killer stalker persona, and outsmarted Petey more than once. Plus, he was IN the RIGHT. (in his mind) He WAS a terrific, terrific villain. Of course, I've never seen a character so overexposed, Venom is almost synonymous with the terrible Clone Wars era. he went to fearsome to jobbing to every fucking hero in the book, to boost sales. (Which he didn't ) The turning point was ASM 375 which was gorgeuous, (I'm a Bagley mark) but had S-M turning the other cheek to Venom. Which so dilluted both S-man and Venom. Spider-Man lets Venom, a killer, go just because he makes a truce? fuck that. Christ, that's like 12 years ago. Venom might have a life in USM, but that's me venting about a great, horrendously popular character gone to waste.

From my fantasy league: KSHB NBC TV in Kansas City is reporting that Priest Holmes has "very possibly" played his final game in a Chiefs uniform and could announce his retirement from the NFL as soon as Thursday. According to the report, further examinations revealed a lump on his spine that could lead to paralysis if he continued to play. The Chiefs have not officially confirmed the report and, as of Tuesday, were awaiting the results of a third evaluation in Miami.

I really hope Arnold's not taken.

Thomas Haden Church cast as villain for Spider-Man
Special K replied to EdwardKnoxII's topic in Television & Film
The fact is, Venom was never meant to be a successful Spider-Man villain. That's a pretty direct quote from Todd McFarlane. After ASM 300, he was supposed to be forgotten. Brock's original motivation was severely weak any retconning (IE the cartoon USM, really benefits the charcter, because Brock's original motivation was WEAK. I really loved Venom, until pretty much the end of the first Carnage arc (Venom was so popular, they spun him off in his fifth fucking Spider-Man appearance.) He was one of the best looking villains, and Spider-Man could not compete, had to outhink him. But Venom (and Brock) were fucking clever and played mind games. Just such a great villain originally. I think it's essential that the villain thinks he's right, and Venom had that in spades. That said, my ideal scenario would be set up Brock up this movie, have Sandman (Church actually looks pretty pimp in that shirt, and GGII or the Lizard. Then you have Venom the next movie. Though Venom and GGII would be too much. So, Sandman and GGII would be awesome this movie, setting up Venom. Lastly, wouldn't it be cool to have an opening villain qith a quick scene, now that Peter's ostensibly Spider-man? A 5 minute opener with Shocker or Elektro or RHINO would be awesome. -
No shit. Whatever you think about Bush, his economic history is fucking untennable. He's not even trying to cut pork. He's cutting corporate taxes, spenfing more on beauracracy, (such as no child left behind) and trying to cut veterans' benefits. The Bush publiscity maching is so fucking brilliant to let them get away with this shit. Plus the ridiculous amount of money spent on the unnecessary war.

The OaO Arrested Development Season 3 thread
Special K replied to Gary Floyd's topic in Television & Film
The Steve Holt training montage was awesome. "Don't ask 'Can I?', ask 'I can'!" "You can control you bladder when you're dead!" "No blood, no oil!" "There is no 'I' in 'win'!" Was that Buster in "a thoroughly polite dustup?" "When I miss your lips, I'll put a fag in my mouth, and think of you." That also had a different meaning. I love this show. -
-
From the little I've seen, Joe and Christopher Daniels would head my list.
-
I bought a very nice, totally legal I'm sure, copt on eBay. It was cheap. Subbing was fairly good. I'll definitely be buying the real version if it has some decent special features. Hopefully

QFT??

Kain's still one of my favorite characters. What a badass. I'd probably like FFIX a lot more if the Chocobo hunting wasn't so necessary. It seemed like it took about a third of the game, and it was literally just blindly pecking around. Awesome. I can't believe they actually bothered to translate #II. That game has either the most impossible combat, or the easiest, provided you're willing to exploit some really terrible bugs. Either way, it's-a boring.

It could've been.... Race Bannon: Do me a favor, Brock. Brock Samson: Anything, old friend. Race Bannon: Tell... Jonny... I love... [Race dies, and all bow their heads. A pause, and a loud farting sound plays] Dean Venture: Ewww! I didn't know they... Ew! Brock Samson: Yeah, they never show that part on TV.

VI VII IV Tactics (too good NOT to include on the list) X IX X-2 V VIII I (though excellent for its time, it's not at all timeless) II III
-
VI, all the way. There's just so much to do, great villain, great plot, great character development. Scads of gameplay. My personal best sountrack ever. I'm hoping that whoever picked III meant VI, because III sucked a fatty.
-
This is what sucks about Fantasy Football. I'm a big Priest fan He's classy, and a total badass, his many flips into the endzone are great to watch. Yet I bet on this happening and picked up Larry Johnson early in my draft.
-
I didn't say it was the greatest game ever. I said GameFAQS voted it best ever, and enough people LOVING the game probably means it isn't terrible.
-
Was the third one, X-Com Apocalypse or Armageddon or something, any good? I know you could choose RTS or turn-based, like X-Com could be remotely playable in real-time.
