  2. Movie/TV recommendations

    Ah wow, that's so good. I only watched this about an hour ago and during that scene I was thinking about looking up an image of Cromwell, see how good the likeness was I wonder if that's the same room the original was painted in? Can wallpaper last 500 years Of course not http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2873336/Wolf-Hall-sets-prepare-tourist-invasion-filming-new-BBC-Henry-VIII-drama-starring-Damian-Lewis.html
  3. PL4YST4TION 4

    I would throw caution to the wind and go with no warranty. As long as you can test it whilst in Miami, make sure it's working out of the box. I've had zero problems with my launch PS4 and haven't seen any threads/posts on gaf of people with bricked consoles, I don't go looking for them but if there were problems I would've come across them from time to time I'm getting the order tomorrow, a rental, but it was always going to be. Im excited, hopefully I won't be let down
  4. Star Wars VII - Open spoilers

    Ooooooo knuckle dusters would be sooooo COOL! So, I was just think if a whip saber will turn up in this films and how would that "work". Could a force user be able to alter the direction of a light saber beam? Is that a thing that ever happened in the books/comics
  5. Sequalgia? Could be used as the term to incapsulate all this types of films together, the style of film if you will.
  6. There should be a term for these films, yes, they're sequels but sequels that exsist purley to chase that nostalgia market. We've had films like Transforms that used people's nostalgia of cartoons and toys (very lucrative). Now they're making films using the nostalgia of our iconic childhood films. Jurasic world and terminator seem to be borrowing massively from their predecessors, imagery, plot, stuff.... Like Star Trek into darkness, it's a sequel/remake, all the same shit just played out a little differently They'll do the same for that new Indiana Jones (did I dream this was happening). I wouldn't be surprised if a new Back to the Future gets announced following the adventures of Marty's kids getting into some very familiar japes. Goonies sequel, is that still a thing Will there come a time when we feel like we've been played by these "sequels", leaving all our beloved childhood movies tarnished in their wake. Edit: Highlander I read earlier theres a new highlander

    Just watched the second episode. It's really good I eagerly anticipate Anne's beheading
  8. Perhaps the story would be that after Alien 3 they made clones/androids using Ripley's and Hicks' DNA. That's the mid film twist, you go in thinking how can Hicks be alive, BOOM, clones. Hicks thinks he's hicks from aliens, they've gave him a scar and everything so clone hicks doesn't know he died in stasis. Meanwhile Clone Ripley is having an existential crisis as she remembered being inpreganated and dying on the prison planet.... She remembers it because, alien tech, DNA memories! Do Aliens have genetic memories? Fuck knows I've gone to far Anyways, it's following in the footsteps of Terminator Genesis in that it's a soft reboot of an 90's action film franchise. So, if that film does well this'll be next Worm hole? To be honest, I couldn't give a flying fuck about this film. I'm only slightly interested because Ripley and hicks are back and I'm wondering how. But I know the answer will be something as ridiculous as above
  9. Oh my http://www.slashfilm.com/neill-blomkamp-alien-movie/ This might actually happen

  14. Idle Thumbs Episode Skipping

    You can skip all of them. Terrible podca.... Oh that isn't what this thread is about I use the iPhone podcast app. Haven't experienced the problem you're mentioning :-/ I hate the app, but I don't know of a better alternative Not sure if they're still doing it but the episodes were getting uploaded to soundcloud, you could use the soundcloud app (but you lose the 15sec forward/back buttons)
  15. Sentence with a Lie and a Truth

  21. Starr Mazer - Kickstarter

    If those shoot em up gifs on the kickstarter page turn you off, Please try either of these below, both free demo versions of quality shoot em ups from cave. ESPGALUDA II HD LITE by CAVE CO.,LTD. https://appsto.re/gb/hzq2A.i DoDonPachi Resurrection HD Lite by CAVE CO.,LTD. https://appsto.re/gb/fepnD.i I find the memorisation comes in to games like Ikuraga and radiant silver gun (which I don't really enjoy). Cave's bullet hell games are just seat of your pants reflexes. Well that's how i enjoy them anyway I'm sure people out there have memorised them, but that's the difference between just trying to survive the level or being skilled enough to attempt high scores.
