Time to start working on our rainbow resistance? I guess some marshmallow resistance would be good too. Heck, maybe the next character class will be ghostbuster!

"when someone asks if you're a nephilim...you say YES!"

Expansions are great, but they tend to mess up the pace of some games. WoW for example. With the second expansion out for woW now, anyone who makes a new character now has lots more content they need to go through just to catch up to everyone else, while some people breeze through the entire thing and are max level before other's have even had a chance to buy the expansion. although i suppose that's more of a flaw in the idea of RPGs to begin with, expansions only build upon that flaw. upon the release of a new expansion, all your characters that you've spent years working on can be rendered obsolete in a matter of days or even hours.

Judging from some of the gameplay footage, some of the situations and traps you'll end up in look pretty brutal. I just hope we're able to survive without cheap tricks like running into a town portal and whatnot. Especially for hardcore mode

Well, considering that you get it from a vendor and people always overprice it on AH, i just got it from the vendor. It's worth it if you have nothing better to do with all that hard-earned gold, but if it takes you a long time to get enough gold i'd save the gold for whatever new stuff comes out along with WotLK. It's one of those items that's just kinda "neat to have" ya know?

I like warriors, but i get bored and annoyed with tanking. Arms spec is the most fun now, especially now with Bladestorm.

Well, a lot of people are gonna be making a Death Knight right away, so our current mains might be put on the backshelf and become our alts. i'm thinking i'll get about a 4th of a level a day or slower. there will probably be so much to do other than leveling to distract me that i'll never even make it to 80, lol

Hahaha, these are great. I've actually found myself thinking "oh crap, am i flagged?" when walking through my town...

I play on Sen'jin and Silvermoon, but splitting my time in any more directions would cause a rift in space and time, thus flipping the game world and real world around, which would get us all stuck in WoW and then promptly killed by level 1 critters.

The only thing i don't like about WoW is just how technical people get when it comes to specs and gear and whatnot. I hate being told that i'd have a extra half a percent damage if i did this or that...the whole point of the skill tree is to allow different playstyles, but a lot of wow players just want to tell everyone else what they're doing wrong. (ironically, my build could easily be considered a cookie-cutter build, yet i still get suggestions from people i've never talked to before who just wanna give their two cents at random)

when i started playing, i was under the assumption that it could be solo'd, like Diablo. I was fairly disappointed when i realised how heavily WoW depends on party play because
1. i prefer to solo, to see what i'm capable of, not what everyone else is capable of
2. i don't like the idea of having to join at speciffic times...it makes it feel like a classroom, or sports practice or something instead of a video game
3. i work night shift, which means if i go on a run, it almot has to be with a pick-up group, so i can't get to know people's playstyles as i go
4. i often play video games to releive stress, but dealing with people on wow can feel like a chore or a second job sometimes

but by the time i realised all this, i was already addicted, so i contnue to play, just doing pvp battlegrounds and daily quests

I found the Silent Hill movie to be pretty disturbing, but that's partially because i'm already a fan of the game series. A lot of people don't think it's scary, but the game series is basically psychological horror as opposed to the boring old pop-out-and-scare-ya horror that most horror films rely on. It's one of the few movies i actually consider to be true horror.

Someone mentioned Eraserhead, and i second that for sure. It's also not your typical "scary" horror movie...it is truly disturbing. Watch this movie alone in a dark room (as cliche as that may sound) and i guarantee you will be afraid to move. The way it's filmed, the awkward silences, the weird camera angles...everything in that movie is meant to draw you in and creep you out. There's no overdone pop-out scare tactics in this movie, and the more you pay attention to it, the more it will bother you. If you like this one, then i also recommend a movie by the same director, called Inland Empire. It starts out pretty slow, but it gets really weird.

huh?? this movie sucked soooooo bad...I almost fell asleep

it was WAY too long, it had no plot!!! no plot at all...not even a climax, it was just a whole bunch of scenes/series put together, felt more like "batman the series back to back", and they rushed it after the 1st half of the movie, the characters had no development and didn't connect, they guy playing the batman can't act for crap, the whole deep voice thing was just stupid and annoying, and when the batman fought, he looked like a midget with tiny arms trying to use karate moves.

Wow. I don't even know where to begin with this comment. No plot? Since when is going against the system to prove a point not a plot? Sure it's been done before, but not nearly as elaborately as in The Dark Knight. No character developement? That's weird, since that's pretty much what they focused on throughout the whole thing. The deep voice thing is to disguise his voice, because unlike ALL the other Batman movie, Batman finally actually cares whether or not people know he's batman. And as for Batman looking like a midget...well, that comment is obviously not really based on anything, unless you watched it on a screen with really, really weird resolution.

The movie should've been called "the joker", he did an OK performance and appeared more than the batman himself. the joker didn't impress me much, people are just flipping over him all because he died, Jack did much better. There was too much pointless talking that didn't even add anything to the movie, and why did batman want to stop being a hero? Did he forget why he became the batman in the 1st place? the movie had a few good parts, like the batmobile turning into a motorcycle, the joker doing his "magic trick" and when they showed two-face's face for the 1st time. Movies are supposed to make you want to keep watching and have a plot and at least a climax, not just random action and pasted together scenes, it was like they started a whole different movie every 20 mins...the first 6 mins were def the best in the whole movie, then after that it starts to drag it out

People loved the idea of him playing the Joker way before he died, so it had nothing to do with that. that's just coincidence. Jack did a silly version of the Joker, but they wanted him to have a more serious attitude. They wanted a Joker that actually seemed like a threat, not just a goofy comic book villain that just wants to spraypaint over art. I mean come on! It is cliche for villains to have some weird quirks, but Nicholsons' version of the Joker was just a little too silly. Batman wanted to stop being batman because he feared that his presence itself was causing people like the Joker to rise up. I honestly wonder how you missed that, because to be quite honest, they dwell on that idea for a long time. How were the scenes "pasted together?" They did skip from place to place a bit when it wasn't too important, but i mean, would you rather watch Bruce Wayne sleep or something to add to the fluidity? That would only make it longer. They cut out stuff where you can assume what's going on...just like in any other movie.

Nolan's Batman movies have given an old favorite superhero a breath of fresh air and saved it from dying out. Surely you don't prefer George Clooney's silly performance against the governator making wise crack s about "putting him on ice" and asking him if everything is "cool enough" for him, heh. The old batman movies were ok for their time, but the newest ones add a whole new dimension to the concept, and have much better acting, writing, action, and...well, they're just better in every way.

Blizzard doesn't want their movie o seem like another Lord of the Rings, so i kinda doubt they'd use any actors from LOtR. I was very happy to hear that Blizzard did their research (or maybe just saw one of Boll's movies) and turned him down. Warcraft isn't the kind of movie that would make a good Boll interpretation. He tends to strip games of everything that made them original. I mean, he put the Bloodrayne movie back in time, and made her just a "regular" vampire. WHY? That destroys what set her apart from other movies of that type.

Samurai Champloo. Hands down. Plenty of violence (not a lot of gore though), incredible fighting scenes, great dialogue (both humorous and pensive), incredible character development, etc.

Yes! I love that series, i have all of them on dvd. I like the voice acting in the english version though. The fighting is believable, it's humorous yet serious at the same time, and it's a great story. Lots of epic scenes in that series. What i liked the most about it is how a lot fo the fights seem like they're cut short, but really it's more realistic that way. Not every anime battle has to be long and drawn out, and Samurai Champloo certainly shows that. It makes the longer fights seem that much better

Death Note is really good, i like the constant plot twists...it makes you think about what's going to happen next, and what you'd do in that situation.

Ergo Proxy was really good too. There are a lot of really slow episodes, but those ended up being the best ones. The action is good, but the series could easily be good even without the action scenes

It was a cool concept, but i wasn't wild about it basically turning into a love story. I mean, you could turn any other kind of movie into a love story, why turn a movie that's supposed to be freaky/scary into one? If you like this kind of movie, you should see one of M. Knight's older movies, "The Sixth Sense." That movie was amazing.

Yes, absolutely. It's the only one i have trouble going through all the way. The characters are pretty believable too, and the dialogue makes more sense than in previous games. I'm currently playing Silent Hill Homecoming, which is really good so far.

I'm loving this music. A lot of people have complained about D3's music so far, but i think it's completely fitting.
