The reboot wasn't bad by any stretch of the imagination. People need to remove their rose-colored glasses when it comes to Raimi's Spider-Man movies, too. People completely over look the faults of those movies because they were good examples at the time of how to do a superhero movie but they still suffered from bad…

I believe that was actually filmed at the wrap party. They didn't know they were being filmed and Von Trier just cut that scene in so there was a bit of humor to lighten the mood.

Because there's no guarantee that the book based on your idea is going to even get looked at by a publisher. These are people that want to break into the writing scene, so when a guy comes to them says he has a book for them to write that's guaranteed to be published, has a movie deal lined up and an entire system…

See I don't think it was pandering to a male audience at all. If Ellie and Riley suddenly turned into blonde bikini models and started making out in a bubble bath, you might be onto something. The way it's explained here and the way it happens in the game just make it seem like something completely organic and not…

Agreed. There are a lot of factors that could have been in play that we may never know about it. As for saying anything bad about the officer, I was speaking more in general from comments I'd read. I hope it didn't come across as me accusing you of saying anything bad.

Well, and I'm not defending what happened, it's possible she had a good reason for having her gun drawn. It does say that she was there to serve a probation violation warrant to the kid's father and we don't necessarily know much about him from what I've seen. He could have been a violent offender and she was told to…

Ah, don't forget Dark of the Moon and Optimus's flight deck that got caught in some wires approximately 30 seconds into use. They have the technology, they're just apparently not smart enough to use it.

My favourite use of the Wii-mote speaker was in No More Heroes. Right before a boss fight the main character would get a call on his cellphone and the audio played out of the controller. They also had some weapon sound effects come through it. I thought it was a really clever touch.

To be fair, they don't really flirt with each other. One character makes semi-mocking remarks to the other. It's not clear if either of them is a lesbian as the tone and situation the comments appear in would suggest they weren't meant to be taken literally.

I have to say, my problem with Cloverfield was almost entirely in the execution. Like you said, it was doing something new, applying the found footage style to a giant monster attack. I was somewhat on board with that. The problem that arose was that the actual movie felt like a sub-plot stretched out to a 90 minute…

Yes, it strongly resembles the Crisis Moon Compact from Sailor Moon. That just made the whole thing even better.

Yikes, sorry for the multi-post. There seems to be some issue with posting for me today.

Trust me, you're not. To this day I don't understand how people could watch that scene and NOT get that it was supposed to be awkward, forced laughter. Especially considering they basically say in the scene that that's what he's doing. I think this is a case of people jumping on a bandwagon so hard that they replaced…

That's debatable. Digimon was a spin-off of Tamagotchi, which came out the same year as Pokemon, so it's unlikely Pokemon had any real influence on it. In terms of the extra media, Pokemon and Digimon are wildly different, with only the "kid and monster" aspects bearing any real similarity.

If I recall correctly, in ME3 she basically takes control of an existing body that was infested with Reaper tech or something by Cerberus. That body happened to be female. So it seems this was probably done at a time when she was perhaps meant to more resemble that original form and not alter it into the sexaroid form…

The way the statement is structured, "then" is clearly defined. It refers to the time after the first week. Regardless, even if the total number of sales was 2 million, that seems pretty damn successful to me, so I'm not exactly sure what point this article is trying to make. The way the whole thing is written just…

Yeah, that's a good point. Like you said, it's a stretch, but it's a good catch.
