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 Celebrated Jumping [chat] of Calaveras County
Posts
I remember seeing it as a kid at an old movie theater (the kind with one screen and a dollar got you a ticket). Perfect place for that kind of movie.
I remember it was supposed to be called "The High-Bouncing Lover"
I don't know why, but I feel as if it wouldn't be as popular as it is today
jk, jk, as we all well know, the American public isn't incredibly superficial
later [chat] thanks for helping me pseudo procrastinate
One sec getting my sharps rifle bout to kill me a praire dog.
My dad loved that movie. I must have watched it 20 times when I was a teenager.
All I remember is that they carved a bunch of old cowboy tropes out of some kind of cosmic Ur-Western and dropped them all in the outback.
it seems like it has potential
but it feels like watching an animation of a shitty 8-bit webcomic
I'd love to see them see who can move further to the right of the other. That will be golden stupidity.
There's something to be said for cliche's done well. And the scenery is gorgeous.
I'll watch Alan Rickman in anything.
Was fun.
Quigley doesn't really adapt to their ways though. He doesn't come to believe that eating grubs is the one true way. It does seem like he admires them for surviving in a hostile environment but it comes off more as respecting an equal.
And he gets to really play up being a bad guy in Quigley. Thats a meaty role for a Rickman like actor "Oh I get to be an utter bastard? Oh delightful."
True he uses them to survive the terrain, shows them how to create/use rope, and then kind of goes on his way. Kind of a proper use of a character in a strange land role?
So... golf claps all around.
Yeah, the crappy dialogue and the dumb relationship stuff is a strike against it. And the bad timing. I can't read the dialogue like subtitles because they're not timed properly, so it's more like a weird, halting... whatever it is.
But I guess I was intrigued by the void and the idea of being trapped in a video game.
Man. Hopefully things will change soon.
...just for the utter contempt in his voice.
"AAA Pest Control. How... pedestrian."
"Tri-City Plumbing?" *lifts eyebrow and silently turns the page*
OH GOD SOMETHING IS WRONG

first thing I thought of:

they need to stand by for one (1) punch in the bits of their choice
Yep. Broken Arrow (with Jimmy Stewart, not Travolta) would be close to another example. Man goes, lives among the Indians and realizes simply that they are people. Of course all of the Indians are white men so it has that bit of racism but Hollywood in the 50's had a lot of things like that.
I could of told you something was wrong easy.
"Mori, something is wrong. That will be $80 dollars."
I didn't, but I want to cash in this offer. I choose Jokerman's bits.
This week in "fuck the motherfucking boomers"
at that moment, I wanted it to transcend its genre and do something insane and hilarious
and then it just wandered aimlessly onwards
I've lost eight pounds since Thanksgiving, though. So I must be doing something right.
You are a mystery, arivia.
One second you're only posting ear-melting metal, then you post something from a group I really like.
Aren't you glad we are paying for their healthcare and they are denying the shit out of ours?
i cant do this in good conscience
if you make a suitably bad recommendation, though, it might be arranged. . .
Honestly its a bit stupid that the people who fucked up are not only allowed to keep fucking up, but deciding what to do to the younger generation all the while knowing they won't be there to reap the whirlwind.
Man I even tried to provide the voice of reason re: first person melee
My parents just seem to watch TV.
It was really, really good, but I'm not sure how I feel about watching animated kids kissing.
Stop being a self centered prick you self centered pricks.
