A lot of these guys tend to mellow out with age. Steve Albini's pretty laid back now.

It's always interesting what single player games end up being great co-op games. My younger sister loved to watch me play the early Silent Hill games, and would get so angry with me, when I played parts of the third one without her around. A few girls I knew back in the day each took turns playing the first Tomb…

Thing is, I really wanted to like this movie, only for more and more glaring issues to arise.

Another thing that really bothered me about this movie, was how nihilistic it was. So many gross scenes, like the Indian woman getting raped, and then cutting the French trappers genitals off. That's like something from Last House On the Left. This movie feels like so many other movies that try and sneak in…

I'd say it's more to do with the limited acting ability of the lead. I'd rather have had Tom Hardy in the Glass role, since he has a greater range of characterization. And as far as sparse characterization goes, I can think of films that are gripping and full of tension, while telling little of the protagonist. The…

I honestly could not agree with you more. It felt like an X-Files episode, whereas some of the other new episodes were a bit shaky in tone.

This episode felt pretty solid to me, though far from perfect. The cold opening was creepy and horrifying, and set up enough of a story hook. We get some nice Mulder humor early on, some social commentary, and then a very strong side story over Scully's mother in the hospital. It really only falters when trying to be…

Right? The actual account has more meaning in the end.

I don't know, maybe flat characterization outside of Tom Hardy, overly long film length, clichéd scenes like sealing a wound with lit gunpowder, unrealistic survival, gave a poor sense of the passage of time [Seriously, it felt like days had passed and Glass magically recovered from severe wounds and exposure], dream…

It's been a while, so I was going on my own memory, but still insane.

James Cagney fought to not be filmed while a building was shot up with a bunch of Chicago typewriters. They instead filmed the place being shot up, and then filmed him in the building afterwards. It turns out had he been inside the building when the place was shot up, he would have been riddled with gunfire.

But isn't that a worthwhile risk when compared to shoddy CGI blood?

I've got good news for you: This was T.S. Elliot's favorite movie. Like, of all movies. This movie is by far one of my favorite takes on Bill's work. That arrow scene, hot damn.

Oh you doppelganger aliens, when will you stop trying to imitate humans?

And when he went to pet his pet rat Algervenged, and the rat bit him on the hand, he knew in that moment the rat's mind had started to regress. A chill went down his spine, a realization: The procedure would not last much longer.

It's funny how much Scully and Mulder just outright take things and don't give a fuck.

Oh, that makes me nervous; I'm currently playing the PS4 one.

It's a favorite of mine. The chapters aren't all equal, and some are much better than others. Whenever the game goes for mood or grotesque, it tends to be interesting. The Sanitarium, town filled with mutant children, carnival surrounded by a flood, that spooky ghost memory house—good stuff. The ending's OK, which I…

How are you liking Grim Fandango? I used to love point and click adventures, but I forgot how easily one can get stuck on a puzzle. Love the classic feel and humor, and I REFUSE to look at a walkthrough. Now if only we could get an updated version of Sanitarium.

He calls them tootsie rolls.
