Curious...both links still work for me just fine...

I'll be short and just say that Cultural Zest is an online magazine about culture, including (but not limited to) games, movies, books, interviews.....it's about culture in the broadest sense of the word. Check it out and if you'd like to add to the discussion, you're more than welcome to visit and join the Cultural Zest forums as well! Enjoy!

Nice one, bot. You made me cry a little.

cool. although, he's kinda sluggish...or should i say sloppy, when it comes to the tempo and transition....but still, pretty cool

Cool idea. I'd like to contribute too...

Watchmen?

Yeah, a puffin on his shoulder should about do it.

Great idea. :tup:

Yep, it always does, doesn't it And having some luck, too.

Yeah, but...so do most of the jobs in everyday life.....here and there....kinda. Also, - it doesn't help (quite the contrary), because I don't really hate you or wish you bad luck and no money or anything. I was just trying to say...it's a cool job.

You have a cool job.

I hate you.

If anyone was (possibly) wondering, we've been having some site difficulties in the last few days, but everything should be resolved very soon. So check back (soon) to see some new article(s). EDIT: And the site is back up now. Also, I forgot to mention that you can follow us on Twitter if you'd like.

Hahah, it's great how a lot of people expect that (I'm guessing, because I imagined the same thing)

Didn't think you'd like it.....

Also, unrelated to any discussion so far, it has been announced and confirmed that Mark Wahlberg will play Drake in the Uncharted movie adaptation.

AT them or WITH them....whichever you choose (or not), it really is pretty funny and amusing. I just love the transcription...as much as their own jokes set upon themselves (the blue pants pun - guy1: "I bet you could put them on" - guy2: "I bet I could....and then I could drop 'em and I can stay close to you and you can go up in 'ere"). Their laughter (and the transcription of it) makes me laugh even more so. Also, I've watched the video more than 10 times now and it really never gets old. I think it's becoming unhealthy for me.

I used to love Shaq-Fu, back on the Super Nintendo...it had a great piece of music, in the .

To get back to the Potter topic, I just saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows an hour ago. I found it to be much better than the previous sequels (which are, let's face it, quite bland and too hectic - therefore lame). That means I quite liked this one, since it's a bit different than the previous parts. And by different I mean this (CAUTION: word "different" mentioned several times!): Quite a different approach to the story progression (after all, the various exterior environments really add up to the effect and every scene takes its time, making the movie itself progress more naturally and differently). A different (I warned you) way of filming and framing; a larger scope (also related to the exterior - the wide shots come to the fore nicely and really fit here; some exterior scenes look really beautiful - almost reminiscent of the LOTR movies - and NO, I'm not comparing Potter to LOTR by saying that). A more-or-less slower pace and "course of action" than in the previous sequels (they really turned out to be quite a mess because of this) - there certainly was extra time to put it all in place this time around, rather than to squeeze it all in awfully, like they did before, making the movies almost nonsensical...(although, they naturally did throw several things out of this movie, that I found quite important in the book, but I shall not geek about this). So, basically, I think that making it a two-part film actually helps the movie and the story itself, other than to make shitloads of money. Also, much better acting, when it comes to the main actors. Well, in some scenes, at least. Particularly, Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) delivers quite nicely.

Thank you, Thompson, my dear friend. (Also, your sentence can once again be very easily affiliated with your avatar............don't be sad...I'm sure there are other people in this world besides you and me, that are reminded of the Bioshock elevator...)

Happy Snoogle, Birthdaybum! And many more remixes and songs!

Am I the only one who thinks the elevator intro is reminiscent of the elevator at the beginning of Bioshock 1?

YES!!! NO!!! . . .

Already posted that on the previous page...but it's good so...

Snooglebum! When you get to episode 17, please check this: there is a part at the beginning where Chris talks about weapons in Killzone 2. The bit starts at 5 minutes mark and lasts about 7 seconds (the most hilarious bit is from 0:05:05-0:05:07). Remix. This. Bit. For the sake of humanity.
