Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    The name of the new [chat] threw me the fuck off.

    I already got some infraction points today [granted, I was using pretty inappropriate debating tactics] and I fear if that che guy in the book thread keeps it up, I might not have the emotional maturity to not get into mudslinging.






    Just kidding. That won't happen.

    Hmmm...

    Code 46 is an underappreciated British film with significant similarities to Children of Men. And if you are in the mood for more wet science fiction, Gattaca of course.

    Bridge to Terabitha is a pretty decent kid's fairy tale movie that gets unexpectedly heavy about 3/4 of the way through.

    I don't know what it was about Go that appealed to you, but another somewhat unusual movie about ecstasy that I enjoyed was The Anniversary Party, which is an ensemble piece about a group of adults with a long history getting together and airing their grievances while under the influence.

    And I mean this in all seriousness: the third Harry Potter movie. Same director as Children of Men and a pretty passable fantasy flick all on its own.

    I am comforted by Richard Dawkins’ theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, teachings, sayings, phrases, clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of writing, teaching, broadcasting and telling too many jokes, I will leave behind more memes than many. They will all also eventually die, but so it goes. - Roger Ebert, I Do Not Fear Death

    I have the cardboard version of both. Carcassonne is fun, but it doesn't have anywhere near the staying power of Settlers. Particularly is they release (or have released) any of the Settlers expansions to Live.

    I mean, sure. She could have fought giant robots, but that would have blown the CGI budget.

    I'm flipping channels and MTV has this retarded High School stories thing, which is basically real life reenactments of things that happened to people in their lame ass high schools. And they use the actual people in the reenactments.

    What baffles me the most about these kind of programs is how anyone possibly enjoys them.

    You know, if you were willing to see Pan's Labyrinth, you'll find Host has a similar level of violence. Not really much horror to it at all.

    I went to the video store for the first time in years the other day, because I had surgery earlier this week and wanted some movies to watch... and they just didn't have any of the ones I was looking for for some reason. I wanted to watch Smokey and the Bandit for some reason because I had never seen it and wanted to see something a lot older than I was.

    Last time I went in a Blockbuster, it was kind of sad. It was good when I was much younger and was looking forward to cartoons, mainstream PG movies, and video games. Now I can just see gaps and critical omissions, at least for someone like me.

    Viva la Netflix.

    Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies I've seen. What Dreams May Come is incredibly beautiful.

    Same. Though it was a dark time before the internet, so I rented the most random games. Smart Ball, Roadrunner's Death Valley Rally (which was kinda good as I remember), Home Alone, Bart's Nightmare, Krusty's Warehouse (weird that I rented Simpsons games as I didn't start watching the show until some years later), etc.
