    What's the "Dark Side of The Moon" album of your favourite music genre?

    Enter the Wu Tang: 36 Chambers Feel free to disagree, though.

    Things that everybody but you seems to find annoying.

    Knife wounds. Just kidding, but I do have a ridiciosuly high tolerance to pain.

    Tempering Your Expectations

    Demos are like movie trailers for video games. Sadly most video games opt for more cinematic trailers instead of the more gaming-orietned demos. A crappy demo is like a crappy movie trailer: Usually it will negatively affect your choice, especially when dropping 60+ dollars.

    Have you ever zoned out in a game and started performing really well

    Usually only on Guiter Hero, although sometimes I can "zen" on Call of Duty or Halo. This backfires the less reflexive and more strategic the title gets, with zoning punished severely in Starcraft II and Battlefield 3.

    American comics should take a pointer from manga?

    Have you ever read Zot? It's the best of Western Comics and Manga. Also, totally not dark.

    Films becoming "products"?

    Kung Fu Panda had some pretty obscure references to Chinese mythology in it. However, I'm inclined to agree with you. On some basic level, many movies are made by companies instead of artists and are made for the money.

    What would happen if animals became sentient or intelligent?

    Clearly, Rise OF THE Planet OF THE Apes would happen. But in all seriousness, if war did not eventually break out, there would still be a long, hard road of speciesism, hate crimes, and questions of inter-species relationships.

    You must assemble a 7-person team to combat attacking aliens.

    Jason Todd (The best Robin, also, sexy.) The Medic (keep the group alive) Heavy Weapons Guy (for Tanking) Master Chief (for luck) Yahtzee (for snark) The Flash (INFINITE MASS PUNCH!) Gordon Freeman (prior experience, good references)

    Poll: Do you think the UN operates a secret space navy?

    As already mentions, given social, political, and economic reasons, the UN is completely incapable of building a feasible space navy. If they did it would have been noticed instantly. The very idea of a space navy is unpractical, because in space, there is no cover, no concealment, and no...

    Big Girls (You're Not Beautiful)

    Being fat basically increases your chances of dying, so let them be. People will continue being bitches and jerks no matter their weight or body image. I personally dislike the "Fat is beautiful" bullshit, because in a perfect world everyone would be diverse in body type and size, but never fat.

    Hulk cut from The Avengers.

    Ever read Ultimates? That's the story role he could have been in. It's obvious that they can't go for Loki as a villain like the first Avengers, as he was dispatched in the Thor movie, so having the Hulk as a villain for the first act could be very compelling. Also having his inevitable heel...

    Hulk cut from The Avengers.

    The Hulk could be more compelling without his main antagonist being the Army, and actually having a more heroic foil like Thor or Captain America instead of it just being Hulk all of the Time.

    Seriously, stop calling it the "God Particle"

    This is blasphemy! We all know that gravity is the result of the Flying Spaghetti Monster pushing us down gently with his noodly appendage! Screw it, that's an awesome name. From now on gravity will be referred to as Christ Force!

    Blaming Games for Violence is the Same as Racism

    Clearly, the solution here is to ban all white people /sarcasm. That was well stated, although I feel like he could have elaborated more. It wasn't racism, it was like racism. When video games are blamed for violence, it is stereotyping, scapegoating, and moral panic that do most of the thinking...

    Poll: Anyone else think rise of the planet of the apes is just silly?

    Basically my opinion. They're going to have a hard time explaining any of the already crazy elements in the trailers. I don't think I will be seeing Rise OF THE Planet OF THE Apes.
