    New Channels on The Escapist

    So far I'm not a fan. I come mainly for the videos, whether it's Zero Punctuation, Movie Defense Force, or LRR. Before I just moused over the Videos tab and clicked ALL and I could choose which series I wished, even ones that haven't uploaded to the Escapist in years like Unforgotten Realms...

    No Right Answer: Best Jim Henson Movie Ever

    While yes, Mirror Mask was after Jim Henson's time, it is a great Henson film. The fantasy and world building are definitely in that realm. I wish that Neil Gaiman and Jim could have collaborated on a film, epic-ness would have ensued. As to the debate at hand, as much as I love The...

    Movie Defense Force: The Perfect Host

    I love David Hyde Pierce and this is one movie I was waiting to see. Unfortunately we never got it as a rental (I work at an actual video rental store, they still exist in some parts, though our time is limited) and was really disappointed. Good to know that it is as slightly dark and a bit...

    Movie Defense Force: Demon Knight

    OMG, how have I missed this schlocky bit of fun!! I mean I work in a video store, my friends and I in high school would watch the worst horror movies all the time and tear them apart. I must remedy this gross oversight immediately! Sadly though, I'm pretty sure we don't have this for rent...

    Zero Punctuation: Next Gen Buyer's Guide

    I second, only I have a PS3 (80 gig so it's backwards compatible) though it is currently refusing to play blurays and has begun to question my PS3 game choices. le sigh..... I think for my next gaming system, I'm investing in a great PC. Time to learn keyboard controls! Just wish I had the...

    The Big Picture: The Big Picture of Boston

    Man, I really loved this Boston Bob-centric big picture episode (say that ten times fast!). I've always wanted to see the aquarium and the Gardens but knowing some of the other attractions just makes me want to visit more. My bestie does live in Mass. I wonder just how close to Boston she...

    Is it wrong that I don't want to drive?

    I agree with a lot of other comments. It's probably a good idea to learn and get your license. However, just because you have a license doesn't mean you need change your habits. Have it in case of emergency, since it seems you live in a great area where it's not a 20 mile hike to get...

    Australian Government Rolls Out R18+ Game Rating Guidelines

    Completely Off-topic but I just have to say "OMG, Sifl and Olly!! You sir (or madam) have the best avatar ever" back OT: I'd have to agree with a lot of people on here, It's a step forward but I think the wording is ambiguous enough (go government) that what "fits" into that rating will be...

    Poll: Do you play videogames/ watch movies with the subtitles on?

    Yes to both Movies because I prefer to hear them in the original language and really can't stand most American voice-over work (yes, I'm American and prefer subtitles! wha.....O_O) They hardly seem to fit the characters or just can't get the right emotion across. Games because I...

    Shows which died before their time

    ah yes, so bad but so good. Firefly's been mentioned. One I loved but got canceled after it's second season was "Pushing Daisies". Clever little show about a pie maker who can bring the dead back to life with a touch and uses this gift to solve murders. oh, yeah. Spaced was a great show...

    So my mom tried to get me to come 'out of the closet...'

    Thank God I'm not the only one! I've never been "relationship" centric, though with parents who divorced when I was young and every other friend needing a man to complete their lives... ugghhh, it's no surprise. I have never had that conversation with any family but a close friend told me...
