  1. Movie/TV recommendations

    Ah as a crazy Masaaki Yuasa fan, I have all of Kaiba but still have not gotten around to watching it.
  2. Tales of Monkey Island

    What?! That has to be a joke. Why does it have the Disney logo in front of it?
  3. Awesome MI2 2D/3D Projection thingie

    I'd say it has pretty much went full circle in that case.
  4. Awesome MI2 2D/3D Projection thingie

    Very inspired by that definitely. EDIT: BROKE THE FORUM
  5. WTFFF!!!!

    Ah, so you are going to commit a crime and then blame it on everyone else, then?
  6. Movie/TV recommendations

    One day I will buy Tokyo on Blu-ray and see it. I do need a PS3/Blu-ray player first.

    Yeah I think he just picked the best fan made one on the Mixnmojo forums (Paco Vink's) and stuck it there.
  8. Idle Thumbs 37: You Gotta Have Spice

    Wait? Which is it?! How will I know which one to make into a 16x24 in. poster???
  9. Idle Thumbs 37: You Gotta Have Spice

    Ahahah, this whole time I thought it was like some bitmap someone had opened up and routinely had on display for all to see on a 386 computer and monitor. Oh nevermind!
  10. Movie/TV recommendations

    Ah, not my area at all. For about two weeks in Houston it was playing at the River Oaks theatre about 4 years ago but I managed to miss it. They could have replayed it since then but I don't keep up with their showings.

    On the big screen?! Where?! I'm a fan of most of his movies and own the rest anyway, but I haven't been keeping too much track of him as of late. Still waiting for his next movie to make it to the US.
  12. WTFFF!!!!

    She looks older in the first picture yet so much younger in the second one, so I will avoid any lewd comments that may come up just to be safe.
  13. WTFFF!!!!

    I just can't understand the need to get all WTF about it.
  14. Brütal Legend overload...!

    http://video games.yahoo.com/news-1138630 I guess it was a multimillion dollar campaign with a few $5,000 prizes, not just one. My mistake. But if it was canceled I guess it was a case of many will enter, none will win.
  15. Brütal Legend overload...!

    Yes, they still need to fund their golden ticket campaign that they wasted all on Psychonauts. I wonder who won all five thousand of those bucks anyway?

  17. Brütal Legend overload...!

    Guess those bastards got some cash, but we knew this was going to happen.
  18. Idle Thumbs is everywhere

    How does this work? Does it suction to the car dash? Wouldn't you still use all of your fingers anyway to grip the back instead of plucking away at the buttons with your index finger? IIIIAFSDFSDSGSDGSDFGDF:frusty:

    Sam Rockwell seems to do an okay job of that too.
  20. Idle Thumbs 37: You Gotta Have Spice

    That was a really interesting podcast. Funny too! I liked all the discussion about each individual's economy in Dawn of Discovery, even though I have no intention of playing it. Makes me want to read more people's personal stories. It seemed like Jake was kind of drunk in the middle of the episode, which was great, even though I think it was sort of established he was sick. He sobered up later though. And the Suckbox is great, but it doesn't match this angry out-of-breath 10 minute Nintendo SHITCUBE review by this Russian guy: ZKgSF0BNFrU&hl
  21. Idle Thumbs 37: You Gotta Have Spice

    I feel like an idiot for laughing out loud at work here because of that Crash Bandicoot comment, but eh what are you gonna do?
  22. Mata Hari

    Haha, because of DoTT, I had my very first exposure to to the idea of cryogenics. All of that trouble just to make a hamster run on a wheel...
  23. Awesome MI2 2D/3D Projection thingie

    Yeah as Thrik said, he definitely did a lot of "fixing" on the Voodoo scene. If you go back and look at the textures when he moves the camera around the scene in front of Captain Dread's boat, you can see how broken a lot of them are when they aren't directly facing the camera, as it appears he messed with the textures less on that one. Of course, if a hyopthetical game were moving in a 2.5D way, you probably wouldn't be doing much zooming in or major camera rotation, so you could get away with this stuff with minor fixes. Yeah I have no idea what they were thinking when they okayed his new character design. If there's one thing that seems almost universally disliked is the Special Edition's new Guybrush look. He's lacking majorly in appeal, I'd say.
  24. Mata Hari

    Haha, I don't think you hate video games, I just think you are brutally clear about what bothers you in a game and hardly beat around the bush in order to let out your dislike but in a way that doesn't make everyone want to jump down your throat. That seems to take skill, but I wouldn't know. I also appreciate it because it's kind of like you are a resident Yahztee but without all the I'm-so-clever masturbation. And Mata Hari... er, I'm giving it a pass.
  25. Movie/TV recommendations

    Yeah, I think I've actually had a little bit of a celebrity crush on her since the Hitchhiker's Guide movie.
