    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    I understand that some art can be enjoyed without deep analysis or much thought, but there is a point in "storytelling" art where this cannot apply. If you introduce characters and then have them perform actions completely contrary to the background that you provided with no explanation, it can...

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    I'm just trying to wrap my head around all the people on this thread saying to ignore the plot holes and stupid character reactions, and "just enjoy the movie". If you ignore plot and characters, what is left? Pretty pictures? Are we as an audience to just take the mindset of toddlers...

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    All you missed was the lack of continuity between certain scenes. Another thing that has come to mind. Nothing about the planet/moon they were on hinted at this being the primary planet of the albino aliens. So why did they keep mentioning it to primitive/early civilization man for tens...

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    Not much of a disturbing surgery, if you count it as that. Hell, the whole surgery consisted of swabbing her stomach with iodine, lasering a hole, pulling out mess, and then stitching her up. Why wasn't there any blood when the opened a whole in her stomach? Why didn't machine do something...

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    Actually you are both wrong. It was the geologist. Boyfriend was torched and that was the end of him, and they found biologist with whole in his head and a snake jumped out and went into the black ooze. The geologist had fallen into the black ooze but his body wasn't there when they found the...

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    Well, technically one of them was high. They made some stupid comment about how he had hooked up some "cigarette" system in his system and then do the "wink wink its not cigarettes routine". The problem with this is that he still has more sense than the other guy who is supposed to be sober...

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    I'm not sure on fraud law but this cuts it pretty close. He is sending "company" mail using someone else's name (who is no longer affiliated with that company). At the very least, Brandon should be able to sue him in civil court for identity theft.

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    Honestly, I could see him claiming to his other clients that this was all planned out by him. He makes himself a giant ass to the internet and his customer has a little bit of bad press to push back onto him but then they have substantial name recognition.

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    I was thinking that the whole time he mentioned having to do everything himself.

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    Holy Balls! If this is an accurate description of the conversation that happened, he replies to a customer with condescending remarks about the customer and everyone from his country. To brag about doing business with 8 countries and then insult one of them might be the stupidest thing he's...

    Ocean Marketing vs. Penny Arcade

    Considering the other site about a different customer's experience, he has been doing this type of stuff for months now, at least. So, I can't feel bad for anything that happens to him. I've read a bunch of articles about this story on many websites so the news is spreading and it is...

    Favorite book series that ended badly.

    Wow. I agree with so much of this thread. Night Angel Trilogy: I liked some of the plot elements in the final book, but yeah the very end was kind of weird and haphazard. Harry Potter: I don't know what I would have liked for an ending, but I didn't feel satisfied with the one we were...

    Internet troll is jailed after mocking deaths of teenagers online.

    As someone who lives in the US, I can only speak towards the laws and consequences of the US, so I apologize for my ignorance of British law. If he did not go to their home, call them personally, or send them letters, you can really not call it harassment legally. He was "commenting" on a...

    4chan Member Gets Jail Time For Sending Dirty Pics To School

    Except it still has to be a crime that you can reasonably be committed of. A ridiculous example would be if someone is accused of shooting and murdering someone and they are charged with littering, as in the bullet. That at still, albeit ridiculously, still relates to the action that happened...
