    Thank you, Bob. You are not alone. Free Mars, and free Earth too.

    Best of the Worst

    At the moment? Twilight. A thousand, thousand times, Twilight.

    Escape to the Movies: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

    Well, Bob, thank you for your review. I trust your judgment, but since I'm also one of those unforgivable, elitist, spoiled brats you name-checked in your "Why Movies Suck" article, I'll wait for DVD. I have the creeping Fear this is going to be another one of those Avatar moments where everyone...

    Among your gaming friends, what are you known for?

    The one who frightens friends with his unwilling to sugarcoat my personal opinions of their life choices. Like playing Lips. (Over and over again...honestly, the only thing that makes Karaoke bearable is the ability to get drunk in public. Why in the name of Insert Deity Here would you deny...

    Can you distinguish Love from Lust?

    Isn't this a universal human experience? Especially in our commodity obsessed, go-go-gadget culture? The better question would be if you loved her in the first place, or simply allowed lust to blind you to the true depth of any annoying character defects that might or might not have led to the...

    "Grinding" in non-MMO games

    Yes, the old GTA weapon walkabout has consumed a good chunk of my life ever since III came out. Never bothered with the bank trucks, though...or with money in general, for that matter. With the Safehouse buying system removed there never seemed to be much point to cash apart from a handy way of...

    The Movie Nerd Bible: Part II

    Well, thank you, Bob. A well-made list, well-explained, and seemingly-designed to prop up the dedicated, movie-watching nerd's ego. In this, you've admirably succeeded. Again, thanks.

    Let the Right One In: Opinions

    Considering the greatest vampire film of all time was made a full fifty years ago, it's categorically impossible for Let the Right One In to occupy that same space in my personal pantheon. Nevertheless, I'd still call it the best vampire of the last twenty years, good in that unsettling...

    Your favorite oxymoron?

    To the old standards already mentioned ("military intelligence"; "honest politician" etc.) I would add Creationist Science Professional Film Critic and my personal favorite, the U.S. Department of Justice

    Poll: Get a life

    Psycho response, because that's just me, and because its usually closest to the truth. Alternative response, considered psycho by the enlivened: "Oh, like yours? With the f-ed up childhood, the broken home, the soul-deadening job, and the emotionally-vampiric interpersonal relationships...

    Question of the Day, August 12, 2010

    Since Godzilla and Gundam are the only two list members I've ever played...Godzilla, I choose you...as the winner by default.

    Blockbuster Bankruptcy Looms

    True, but I find half the fun lies in finding out which new ships they've jumped to, and figuring out how to avoid and/or sink those as well.

    Your "Enemies List"

    Akiva Goldsman The American Midwest Michael Bay Joel Schumacher Roger Ebert (on occasion) The American South (which, if I have anything to say about it, shall not rise again) Mark Millar Dan Didio Rob Liefeld Whomever sold Marvel Comics out to Disney Two-faced politicians (that is, all...

    Blockbuster Bankruptcy Looms

    Not to shamelessly parrot an existing meme, but...this almost gives me hope for humanity. Almost. It's certainly gratifying to see shameless greedheads scramble to polish up their burning turd of company...though I can't help but wonder where bored, suburban teenagers who've watched too many...

    Can you turn a book into the story for a game?

    I'd say that, since reading most of Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series feels like a unbearable grind quest as it is, they'd easily make the transition into some form of RPG...except it looks like Obsidian and Red Eagle are already three steps ahead of me. (And it'll be an MMO, no less.)...
