There were so many plot-holes and bad-plotting ridiculousnesses lined up before THAT one, that I'm not even sure THAT one matters...

The movie was crap. Tedious, ridiculous, awful plotting problems, no interesting characters (except Michel Fassbinder) and it was laughable when it was supposed to be scary (and it was never really scary).

Yeah, so hard that's the one thing I've never managed to finish in the entire game.

You want repetitive enemy one-liners? Play Crysis and Crysis 2. It got to be hilarious, actually, how brain-dead they were...

Well, at least it let you keep playing. And then the DLCs came out (All but one of them being great, each better than the last — again, all but the second one)

I would TOTALLY mind that. I hate losing that much progress and having to replay that much of the game over and over just because of a difficult spot. Check-point games, in general, suck because of that. Borderlands had a really nice balance between manual-save games (like Fallout 3 and RAGE), and checkpoint games.

I dunno... I thought it struck the right balance, though I agree, at some point you ended up with so much cash that there was nothing to do with it.

Did you play the DLCs? Because that's where it really began to shine, imho. And the final one was seriously kick-ass (I skipped the second one... it's not really all that fun, just some arenas for fighting in, if you're into that).

Well, given the talent and skill of the people involved, and the really, really simple google search that could have turned the B to a T and ended the controversy, I think I'll keep knocking it. I expect more from really smart, talented people who are crafting a really good movie... more than I expect from schlock

That's extremely irrelevant. We're talking really trivial basic facts that can be fact-checked trivially and whose fixing wouldn't hurt the story-telling at all. Why are you so okay with ignorance and unnecessary mistakes? It's one thing if it's a critical suspension of disbelief thing central to the story (like

The point is, it's so easy to get such details right (I mean, there IS an internet and all), why get them wrong? And in doing so either create or perpetuate ignorance?

Still, the line would have worked just as well if she had said "Trillions of miles, just to get laid", and would have at least been accurate.

Okay, now you're just being an idiot. Nobody said YOU were one of those. But look at the politics of those states. Stop being willfully blind. Look at the fucking flags, those states I mentioned (South Carolina and Georgia in particular, on through Alabama and Mississippi) are definitely Confederate wannabes, and

Oh, I've been down there. AND I've watched them vote. And yeah, they're fracking backwards and ignorant with their stupid creationism, anti-gay, anti-woman, racist crap.

So... my thinking is that Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and the Florida Panhandle (and maybe strip it all the way to the Atlantic at that lattitude) should become its own country, separate from the rest of the USofA. Let the backwards ignorant bigots stew in their backward ignorant bigotedness.

It's actually the least likely due to treaties already signed that prevent any nation from claiming the moon as sovereign territory.

It would make more sense for Texas to become its own nation (as it once was already)... it already has its own separate electrical grid, after all.

Just make Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina it's own country.

Exactly my thought.

Well played.
