Come on this is an probably adaptation of 1984 like Romeo Must Die is a Shakespeare adaptation. They're likely just name dropping 1984 for some buzz. Besides there's nothing wrong with adapting a classic transforming it to something new. We praise filmmakers for doing this it all the time. Films as diverse as Star…

I work on this part. The booster Avionics and Controls System.

The new reflective protection coating on SS2's inner tail boom surfaces is being evaluated to help maintain vehicle skin temperatures while the rocket motor is firing.

So this is apparently what one of these guys look like.... I need a drink....

Yeeeeahhhh... kinda. I can see your point. But you would hope they'd learn their lessons on the second go round :)

Ok, so... good

After playing it about 10 times in 4 weeks, I'd say that it would completely replace Agricola for me, It's just one opinion but all of my friends as well as almost everyone from the gaming media agrees. It's not as tense a game as Agricola with food shortages and things, but it's definitely deep and fun. My buddy's…

Hoping to snag a copy of Robinson Crusoe soon- apparently Z-Man just shipped a new batch out to retailers.

Pathfinder Adventure Card Game - one of the best board/card games at emulating the feel of RPG adventuring. Wildly successful and available everywhere (even if you can't fit the box in a studio apartment)

Brett. All the way.

Elijah Snow ... Booyah!

Can't believe you missed Oz! Not that glass cells prevented the entire prison from being a veritable orgy of rape and murder...

Just gonna leave this here

Alan Moore is one of the handful of comics writers of his era with the intellectual honesty to confront the central paradox of what they were doing for a living: vigilantism is not something that any grown-up should longingly fantasize about.

Alan Moore, speaking truth to power as always. And rattling cages in the process. People apply a level of "grumpiness" to Moore that is simply not their when you hear him speak. His opinions carry no resentment or judgment of the people who enjoy super hero comics. He a sweet heart in person and is unfairly tarnished…

When he speaks, we listen. Moore wins.
