The first rocked your socks. (and sold the console.) The second is around the corner. Because really a chainsaw fused to an assault rifle is the epitome of kewl. Details.

It has returned.... For those of you that do not know the rules, I will start off by posting a quote. If you know the answer, you post it and then post a quote of your own. Basically it should be a fun thread that tests your movie knowledge. Oh try not to cheat as that is no fun. Here goes.. "They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time."

I first heard about this game, from Penny-Arcade's 'blog' or 'news' post. http://www.penny-arcade.com/2008/02/11 Quite simply, the game is an RTS (Real-Time Strategy) taking place within a 'solar system'. I haven't got far in the game, And I'm not even sure if there 'is' a campiegn but the gameplay is defiantely addicting. Basically you start out controlling One Planet, and a couple of ships. From here, you can expans in basically 2 ways, your Military branch, or your 'Civic' Branch. Military obviously controls, what type of ships you can use, to explore/destroy your enemies with. The Civic Side you to 'upgrade' various slots (logisitc & Tactical) and increas…

First picture just released... Looks like a Weapon X cage, IMO. Also looks like Hugh spent a few extra hours in the gym...

Good video on the upcoming Clone Wars animated movie. http://www.starwars.com/video/view/000623.html Here is the sneak peek as well: http://www.starwars.com/video/view/000478.html

So I have been lax in providing updates for this League. Actually this has been on purpose as I am spanking everyone. This is probably due to the fact that everyone else forgot about the league. Playoffs start in a few weeks and I thought it would be nice to have some competition. Ranks 1. Empy 92-53-15 2. Wooly 82-50-28 3. Hax 85-58-17 4. Iceholes... not sure who this is 80-59-21 5. Slip N Sliders... again... who are you? 75-72-13 6. Burgandy Enterprises... no idea 67-77-16 7. Corki 52-89-19 8. Deathwatch 35-110-15 So far 1-3 are guaranteed a spot in the playoffs.

You guys suck and I will rule you. Especially Tenshin and his merry band of followers.

WOO HOO the trailer is out! http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/indianajones.html?showVideo=1

I don't have much info on this other than a cover of PC Gamer. http://www.pcgamer.com/archives/2008/02/21208_-_red_ale.html I've grown tired of RTS-games but I might have to check out Red Alert 3.

http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20176618,00.html Discuss. OMG! I can't believe someone nominated Kindred the Embraced! I LOVED that show!!! It was so cheesey and rather badly acted in parts, though. C. Thomas Howell, wow he was terrible! But 3 (wait, maybe 4) Whedon-verse actors had roles on the show. It was unfortunate why they cancelled, but I can see the reasoning. How could you just Re-Cast the prince? Seriously. I would have loved one more season of Angel, but I don't know if it cold have stayed fresh for much longer after that. I'm happy with David Boreanaz on Bones. My So Called Life. Wow. yeah, that was a shocker to be cancelled. There's a…

So the cheesyness is back. Some say it's mean, but I think the auditions are hilarious. Like this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mo4MJUpX8fo "If you were a blackboard I'd chalk you" is gonna be my new pick-up line.

It is attached to Cloverfield... Here’s the “Star Trek” trailer description. Hope you can use it. Slow Paramount logo. Bad Robot logo. Black, suddenly some sparks (very saturated [with] Michael Bay-looking cinematography). We hear an old NASA radio countdown: “30 seconds and counting.” Close up of a timeless guy with goggles leaning down doing some wielding and sparks flying around. He lifts his googles. Slightly futuristic head covering. It’s not a space suit, by the way. The dude leans down and wields some more. He’s standing on big metal. “From director J.J. Abrams” (blue font with a nice lens flare). Some Kennedy speec…

Hi, Im looking to start a clan type thing or join one for online play. If anyone is interested please let me know. I would like to get the most out of this game and I noticed alot of "clans" online. Thanks

Ok, start asking.

September 7, 2008 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Had subscribed to the Spore newsletter a long time ago and this announcement was the FIRST and ONLY letter sent. :o Came with a link to the site with a small teaser video but no real content. http://www.spore.com/screenshots.php?movieID=7&play=lo Still, I'm excited, been waiting for this game for SO long. :D

So we have here an applicant who showed the initiative and desire to set up a COD4 gaming group. In addition to that he also bribed one of ours with counterfitted money and bought his way onto our board. ;) This is flat criminal and just the kind of initiative we need. Make sure you print off plenty of digital money, so you can keep me from singining when the mood strikes, or worse yet when we bust out the Rock Band. :D JJ, don't let all this go to your head now, because theres something I forgot to tell you about. *bundles JJ in The Sack* Beware the sack. Who gets first dibs?

The Hobbit film adaption is probably going to go down in history as one of the most troubled productions of all time. After two years of bitter wrangling between Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema (with uber-producers Saul Zaentz and MGM acting as mediators), they finally came to an agreement a couple of months back to film The Hobbit and an original prequel film set between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Guillermo del Toro was being lined up to direct, Jackson is producing and WETA will again provide SFX. On the actor front, Ian McKellan and Andy Serkis have said they'd do it, Ian Holm has indicated he won't and Christopher Lee, Orlando Bloom and Viggo Mortens…

*wagons pull up through the snow to stop in front of the Seanchan* *jumps down from the Mahdi's wagon and ties her horses down* Hello, Seanchan! :) *pulls her brightly colored, patched-up cloak to her* brr! Tis cold! mind if me and a few other Tinkers come in for some cocoa? ;D

I want this game so very, very much. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/29964.html

standerd rules apply. i will answer all questions to the best of my ability and as stated on the movies MAIN imdb page.

Yao Man's back!!!! Who's watching? This is the first season in a long while that was exciting immediately. Faves looked like they had it together but they lost the challenge. Johnny Fairplay is at it again.

One of the best movies I've seen in a long time... if for nothing else, then for Ellen Paige's ballsiness. It's cute. It's feel good. And they didn't take any of the easy options with it, which was awesome. Plus the soundtrack was so perfectly done I'm still not over it. About the only bad thing about it was that they overdid the 'teen speak' a little.

I had this on my netflix, after I saw a trailer of this movie on the movie, Once. It looked interesting, and it was. I can't really get into to much detail about the film, but it Is a pretty damned good movie. Heres the description of the movie on the netflix case. "While he respects his immigrant parents (Irfan Khan and Tabu) and their decision to rear him in his United States birthplace, Gogol Ganguli (Kal Penn) is torn between Indian traditions and the modern Bostonian lifestyle. Jacinda Barrett and Zuleikha Robinson also star in director Mira Nair's thought-provoking coming-of-age drama, which explores first-generation Americans' delicate dance between cultu…

Dragonlance DVD Has anyone heard anything about this. It was apparently released this week on DVD. It appears to be an animated version of the books. Voice actors include Keifer Sutherland/Raistlin, and Lucy Lawless/Goldmoon, and Smallville's Lex Luther Michael Rosenbaum/Tanis.

This could be good... or VERY bad! Why not leave the first one alone and start like you are making a sequal... except less corny.

Sadly a show I discovered after it was canceled. I miss it....

Yes, it is night time. For those of you that don't know me... well... I post during the day and rarely at night or over the weekend. But I am making an exception today. I just netflixed a movie based on some top ten lists I have seen over the past few weeks. If you are like me... you are wondering what this movie Once is all about. Hell I didn't really know until I got the netflix and read the description to Yveva. So what is about? It is a simple love story of boy meets girl... well.. literally. We never learn the people's name and the credits are really girl and guy. The Frames frontman Glen Hansard stars as a Dublin songwriter who takes his guitar to the …
