Changing the color on a grasshopper doesn't make it cute. :P Grasshoppers are the ugliest, creepiest, weirdest alien tank-gluttons in nature. Can't stand those grotesque little monsters. No color swap makes them any less abhorrent. And don't even get me started on the female ones when they're unfolding their own…

Aw - well I have to agree to disagree on Octopussy. It's well paced, has a reasonable plot, and manages to avoid most (though certainly not all) of the goofiness in Moore's later Bonds. There are a few silly things, but the main plot is fine.
It sounds to me like you are saying, "borne of a movie that was not Bond's finest outing" and then saying "If Goldeneye was based on Octopussy then I'd agree". Isn't that saying that you think Octopussy is NOT one of Bond's finest outings?
Hey - Octopussy is a seriously underrated Bond movie.
More of a marketing ploy than a benefit, really. The number of times there are going to be drive train problems on a car are minuscule compared to other failure points.
Time for some uncomfortable truth telling...
The blog and a lot of the comments are blaming the division between middle-class white areas (so called gentrification) and poorer minority areas as "racism". But truth be told, this is not racism. It is economic stratification. The statistics of the racial percentages of…
No argument there.
Participants "A" agreed to give up land in several peace deals that have been scuttled over the years by the Palestinians.
There. That was easy. Answered your question. Now give mine a shot.
Maybe with your perspective you can explain it - but how is it possible to achieve a peaceful solution to a conflict where "Participant B" has as its very first position that it refuses to acknowledge "Participant A" has a right to exist? Color me crazy, but I've never gotten any sense that that Palestinians have…
The 2nd movie was better paced than the awful first movie - but was NOT "The Hobbit" in anything except the barest most threadbare manner possible. It followed the basic sequence of locations (Beorn, Mirkwood, Elf prison, Long Lake, Lonely Mountain) but other than that? It might as well have been called, "Dingles…
A Playstation designed for 3% of the population - of which probably only 5% of which are gamers. Wow - what a marketing coup.
Celebrimbor doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would return as a vengeful ghost to order some guy to go around whacking off orc chieftains for bounty rewards. But whatever. :)
But there wasn't just one guy who was betrayed. The great rings were made by several of the great Eregion smiths. There was one guy - Celebrimor - who was part of that group who had secretly made the three Elven rings without Sauron's knowledge. But it was the whole group that was betrayed.
What other one would be worthy?
This. And "cost of system versus cost of freaking multi-million dollar tank".
Hm - what is the ratio at which these cards will be available for use in a deck though? I have always understood that a lot of these cards will be "single player only", and that only some of them will be available for use in Arenas or Play mode.
I'm not mad at you. I'm calling you out because you are calling me a racist just because I'm pointing out simple facts. Pointing out that comic books mostly have straight white protagonists because the nation they exist in consists mostly of straight white people is does not in any way imply that it is "my way" or…
As is typical, you accuse others of racism and bigotry - but reveal yourself to be the racist bigot in doing so. Check your privilege, dude and stop acting like you know people's minds or hearts. Throwing out the race card just because you got schooled by facts and reality? You can do better than that. It's that…
It's just a thought, but let's look at the statisitics...
