I may be ugly and hate-filled but…. what was that last thing you said?

You're history's greatest monster!

I had the same problem with my 2 handed rogue at first. It does take getting used to. In the earlier games you just kind of waded in and did some location tweaking to get backstabs, but in this you really have to disengage much more in order to maximize your damage potential (and not get destroyed by the enemies).

I remember playing the original Mass Effect game (not open world technically I know) and thinking to myself… shouldn't I be trying to save the galaxy rather than driving my tank around marking iridium deposits and investigating crashed probes?

The internet has taught me that it is NOT okay to have different opinions. One of us is right the other is an idiot. Since I'm no idiot we all know who the idiot is.

I agree, but I also lament and rail against it!

I think it has to do with the rabid loyalty that genre fans tend to have towards their chosen genres. Certain genres have a built in fanbase that's going to be devoted (barring exceptional badness). Transcending genres breaks it from the perception that it's tribe loyalty based love rather than quality of the show…

I'd say that the pre-show hype of prestige, based on who's involved, is unavoidable. But I have a hard time accepting that the prestige tag is something that should continue to be applied even when the show falls short of anything resembling prestige.

So the TV industry got to you too… stop taking bribes! Idiot!

It's not obligatory when you really, really want to say it.

That's ridiculous, she was clearly a Desmond Tutu with just enough cream to make her a Lou Diamond Phillips.

If that's the case then I can agree with that.

Day of the Jackal wasn't based on Carlos the Jackal.

Smaug's dead by the time of the battle… the fifth army is the Eagles.

I agree that I'm being a bit hyperbolic. As an ESL teacher myself I know how it happens. But the point I was making I stand by. Broken English isn't evidence that it was DPRK because the Chinese government would have fluent English hackers.

You might think so. But you might also think they could find fluent English speakers to translate signs. Based on my experience, they can't.

I just saw the 2nd one on TV last weekend. I felt it vindicated my decision not to pay money to see it at the theater (after paying to see the first one)… and the fact that I won't pay to see the third one either.

Crazy! The songs are a selling point.

World War 2 era subs. Underwater those things could manage about 7 knots. On the surface about 17. So unless they were actively trying to evade detection (this is before the actual war) they usually traveled on the surface.

Watching this movie, (which I seem to do with these movies for masochistic reasons that I don't comprehend) made me ponder the fact that at some point someone pitched a joke in which Cantmiss (hilarious) shoots an arrow which misses her intended target, flies through the woods and hits Psy doing his Gangnam style…
