Her personality may be bland, but at least she's not helpless. Bella is the most useless, incapable character ever.
Ha. No pun intended?
This practice was especially sad in the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" line of toys. The actual TV show stars a number of very prominent, well-written, kick-ass female characters—NONE OF WHOM were made into an action figure.
I had a feeling someone would invoke the wit and humor of David Willis, and I was not disappointed. :3
The little franchise-appropriate symbols on the gold "spines" of each book are a nice touch. :3
And suddenly I feel the need to check and see if my PS2 and copy of FF7 still work. Be back in a few days...
The Japanese apparently look at blood types a little like the way some Westerners look at your astrological sign. They think they can learn about your personality based on it. The weird thing is, this is actually a holdover from all the way back in the 1920s. At the time, a racist doctrine was promoted by the…
Okay, I agree with you there. If I had the choice between a CD and a digital download, I'd go with the CD so I could then rip the files, but keep a hard copy. But being able to download almost any song you want remotely is very convenient, and as I was saying, a lot of albums don't even get a CD release any more. (For…
That sort of happened to me with John Carter. The writers on io9 seemed to have a generally positive view of the film, and a lot of the commenters there agreed that it was a decent film that received a lot of bad press. So I was convinced it was worth a try and bought the Blu-ray.
No, iTunes is way too mainstream for hipsters. As for uneducated people...I have worked at a large electronics retail chain. The only people complaining about the lack of selection in the CD area are the uneducated ones. They seem to have no clue why CDs aren't in high demand anymore. Pick your favorite digital…
See, I did quit after reading that part. But at the time I was the same age as Dany, so I was understandably creeped out.
That's where I watched that soulless Conan the Barbarian remake. I actually really like the original Arnold movie, but the new one wasn't even campy-fun. It was just lame. Oh well. At least I didn't pay to see it...like I did with John Carter. (Whyyyy did I buy that Blu-ray??)
I'd say the PG-13 Robocop remake, but I get the feeling that a lot of people will agree that movie is redundant. I'm betting it'll be a flop, just like the watered-down Total Recall remake.
Ugh. I tried this once on a day out and it apparently backfired on me. I had the day off, but decided to dress in a nice emerald green button-down blouse, because I almost never get to wear it (yay retail). I did my makeup, wore my nice shoes, and went to my Walmart pharmacy to get my birth control prescription. The…
Well, crap. That's twice now in the span of a few months that a Gawker reviewer has convinced me that I should probably see a movie I was originally dead-set against seeing. Thanks? (The first was Frozen.)
Exactly. These kids have never had to scramble to find a pencil in order to wind the tape back into a cassette, all the while praying that it hadn't been damaged by the ordeal. Or the frustration of a tape that no longer plays due to heat and humidity or overuse.
Much as I would like to see that, you can't wage a mental war with an unarmed opponent.
My turn!
Oh God, me too. All I could think while watching this video was, "Won't someone please save those poor babies???"
