    Warner Bros. & DC Blink First

    I dunno...Bat Fleck, and the guy who whined for 2+ hours in the Social Network as Lex....scary... The real problem with DC is simply compelling characters. Aside from Batman and Supes...the rest of the JLA is weak. No one is going to sit through a 2 hour Wonderwoman movie...or an Aquaman...

    NFL Thread- 2014-15

    How bout them Texans!!! Just kidding. Seriously they can only improve from the debacle that was last season. All eyes are on Clowney to see if he is truly going to be a frachise player. My only concern is Keenum. Yea he is a local boy from UH, but the dude can't read a pass rush to save...

    Houston Astros Unable to Sign First Overall Pick, Brady Aiken

    Living in Houston, they don't get much play around here, we are still reeling from the Bosh debacle and that The Rockets got caught with there pants down. The Astros are 3-4 years away from even being relevant in the AL. BEsides we are looking towards NFL right now anyway. The Astros have a...

    Game Genres You Just Can't Play Anymore

    Couldn't agree with you more. I remember playing Knights Of The Old Republic and playing as a good guy, I finished the game. They try and push the whole play as a bad guy this go around, but really, how much will it effect the end of the game. I have yet to see a game with morality choices...

    Game Genres You Just Can't Play Anymore

    I rarely play FPS for multiplayer, I like a good immersive story. Bioschock Infinite had a multipayer but. Multiplayer in FPS only works well in games that are specific for it (i.e. Quake). Quake has a balanced set of weapons that everyone can get. You don't have to earn the weapon it's an...

    Game Genres You Just Can't Play Anymore

    See I take an opposing viewpoint granteded a lot of FPS is shovelware, or lame, but there are FPS games that push the evelope. Games like Half Life 2(the entire Ravenholm section) and Bioshock Infinite rocked my world, and the first Bioshock had a twist that rocked my world hard. So there are...

    Book Adaptations On Television/Movies

    Well, this debate has been around a while. There are extremes of both. Actually, even though I am super cheap the little I have seen, I have been impressed with HBO's adaption of A Game Of Thrones. I saw the occasional episode here and there and granted Martin's writing style is hard to...

    Changing A Character's Race In TV/Film

    I personally think that if they can capture the spirit of the character then it's all good. I admit I wasn't a fan of Daredevil(the Affleck factor killed it for me). However the character of Fisk was played correctly. He pulled off the swagger of the Kingpin. Personally as long as they pull...

    What song are you currently listening to?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQu8A_Wjbbc Orge Nivek of Skinny Puppy fame's more "pop" sounding stuff. Mind you the words Orge and "pop" would almost never be used in the same sentence. This: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-jFtyHWUfI Get yer prog on kiddies. This album is...
