  1. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    Showing results for agoraphobia No results found for aegiphobia So nearly a googlewhack.
  2. Movie/TV recommendations

    A film that I always remember with a pan-and-scan VHS fuzz over it is John Carpenter's The Thing.
  3. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Is there enough money for you to put remote detonators in the gifts, so if they ignore them you can explode the gifts from afar?
  4. Life

    My gut reaction is that what she really means is she's not attracted to you enough to keep it going (and therefore doesn't want to hurt you any more than necessary by keeping it going). Well done on losing weight and getting fitter!
  5. Yeah, I did enjoy the Kafka-esque elements of Tribunal. It got a little slow in the second half, and O'Brien didn't have quite the same gravitas as Picard in his "four lights" episode, but overall it was pretty cool.
  6. On the other hand, the DS9 intro does reflect the series, ie BORING. I'm about to move onto season 3, hopefully it'll start picking up.
  7. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    I think the whole video of that got posted in the big dog thread if you want to see more box creatures falling over.
  8. I haven't watched all this yet, but looks funny: http://io9.com/two-fans-broke-onto-star-trek-tng-sets-to-film-their-o-1503465146
  9. Dammit, I'm going to have to make my own copy of the list now with all these extra episodes in (was there "Demons" as well?) so I don't miss them!
  10. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Also, won't Jake know exactly what's going on from reading the LDVG thread? Shouldn't you go back and edit that out in case he hasn't seen it yet?
  11. Suck box? Crap box? SEX BOX

    Our minds were too numbed to think of it, sadly.
  12. Suck box? Crap box? SEX BOX

    My girlfriend and I watched the start of this after seeing it on Charlie Brooker's 2013 round-up show. We had to skip forward quite a bit to get past all the padding, and then watched about 5 minutes after the first couple emerged before we got bored and turned off. They discuss such basic, obvious stuff, it was bizarre.
  13. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    Okay, let me explain once and for all! I fully agree that it's not a big deal!
  14. Movie/TV recommendations

    That was a naughty upload, it's gone now. There's a sequel coming up, sounds cool: http://screenrant.com/monsters-dark-continent-trailer-teaser-2013/
  15. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    No no, I'm saying Zeus is likely aware of the existence of the character Manny Calavera and what he looks like, at the very least due to your avatars.
  16. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    I'm sure he's aware of it, though (at the very least due to Rodi's avatars!), as was I when I played COMI before Grim had been released.
  17. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    Yeah, it was this I was referring to. I know I'm being pernickety, but if it were me, I'd prefer to experience that nice little surprise in-game rather than hear about it in this thread first.
  18. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    Frankly, this should all be spoiler-tagged up, from Thorn's post onwards.
  19. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    Presumably a reference to a thing Zeus may not have seen yet...
  20. No, I think just joke and Merus' head.
  21. This might be a joke, but no review can be objective because a person is writing it, plus you've got scores at the end which you haven't given any proof how they're objective.
  22. It's really bizarre when people react to these type of things mentioning that it may be a joke while obviously not realising it's a joke.
  23. Yeah, exactly. (I knew you understood it, SAM ) After hearing about this, whenever we were floating an idea, Dan and I started just writing [tech] wherever there was a puzzle element or dialogue explainaway that we hadn't figured out yet!
  24. This. And in case anyone takes it out of context, that clip of Riker talking technobabble is an intentional joke - he's distracting a stupid Ferengi to buy someone time elsewhere.
