Spoilers (maybe?). Honestly, after having seen the Amazing Spider-Man 2, I have to say that it's up there as one of the best Spider-Man films yet made. Individuals on this thread mentioned that the film is "disjointed," but I don't see where they're getting that from. The plot flowed just...

Speaking as someone who can find worth (if not artistic merit) in just about every film listed in this thread, there are very, very few films that I regret seeing. I may not like a given film, but it doesn't fill me with bathos over those precious lost moments of my life. But there is one...

http://www.oxm.co.uk/39736/revealed-the-mass-effect-3-ending-bioware-canned-before-release/ I don't know how I feel about the "original" ending concept. I guess it could have been awesome or terrible, depending on how it was accomplished. I still don't like the idea of the Reapers having an...

As it stands, the Mass Effect Series has to be at the top of my favorite gaming experiences of all time. Mass Effect 3 is, in itself, pure excellence that is magnified a hundred fold when the previous entries are taken into account. I like the game so much that I'm only *neutral* toward the...

I'll try to be as, er, sensible as I can be in regards to this topic. In the grand scheme of things, Humanity is about as meaningful as an Amoeba... which is to say utterly meaningless and, at the same time, of the utmost importance. If a single Amoeba or the entire Human Race were wiped out...

I have a feeling (WARNING: Incoming Opinion based on absolutely nothing but idle speculation) that Nolan was going for something of a "Batman vs. his Dark Mirror" type scenario, but when he came across DC's actual "anti-Batman," Prometheus, he probably decided to simply make Bane, based on...

Yeah... thought I was replying to your post, but I guess I was mistaken (must have pressed the wrong button). Oh well! :)

I'm not particularly interested in changing any particular event in my life (I've had some shitty moments, but nothing I'd classify as "must change!"). I'd probably do what I already did, but with far more sex and far less smoking. Maybe not be so late to chat up certain girls whilst in High...

Interestingly enough, I *just* rewatched the Land Before Time a few days ago (had a moment of extreme nostalgia) and, as I am wont to do, went to IMDB to read up on it. I learned about Judith Barsi's terrible death and have been in a goddamn funk all week because of it. There's nothing like...

It is, I feel, due to "focus groups" and the "formulization" of film making. In the last, oh, 20 years or so, films have become ultra friggin' expensive. This means investors absolutely must have assurances that the film that they are going to at least break even on their $100 Million+...
