I think they're talking about when the author does it mid-scene, with no hint to the reader that it's happened.

Rofl that's only for people with opinions. Cheating is merely frowned upon.

You know what studio would be my choice to remake this?

"When after all, it was you and me."

Destruction can be objectively beautiful. An object being destroyed, like a vase, could be a beautiful sight while filmed in slow motion, for example. A leopard hunting down a zebra can be beautiful too. An atomic explosion going up in the air is beautiful and terrifying at the same time. A volcano erupting can be…

That was part of my plan for quitting, when I looked in my hand, saw the cigarette, and knew the only reason I lit it was because, well, that's when I ALWAYS lit one. After cursing my own stupidity for doing that, I started cutting those out until I got down to the ones I had when the nic fit hit (sounds like…

You know, I had heard that a while back; good to see there was something to it. I know there were some serious changes that came about when I quit, including feeling sick as a damn dog for about four days and some really awful sleep. The kicker was breaking the behaviors associated with it (that's when I knew it was…

United States of America: The world's wealthiest banana republic.

If they made a grotesque stop-motion version based on the original illustrations, I would throw all my dollars at it (and never sleep again probably)

Another movie Europa Report pushed all the right buttons of hard scifi. The plot was light, but i did enjoy the ride. Would love to see more. ER2 anyone?

The thing that makes these movies work is "superhero" fatigue doesn't really set in because each film is so vastly different, even in genre, that they don't give audiences a chance for fatigue. Captain America 1 was a plucky patriotic war movie, Hulk was a misunderstood monster movie, Thor was full-on fantasy and…

God. I remember playing these with my MS Sidewinder Force Feedback joystick in one hand and the keyboard in the other. The force was with me!

I remember the first time I figured out I could not only change my laser shot pattern, but also the orientation of my shields I was speechless for the next fifteen minutes. Then I found out you could change the Engines/Lasers/Shields levels, and wondered if I'd somehow peeked behind the curtain and seen the face of…

13 book series! Each step is the book title with book 13 being Saved!

Was it just me, or was there a pretty strong Wes Anderson vibe to that?

Lauren, you're making my nostalgia show.

Please, tell us what games you higher beings feel would benefit our filthy palates, that we may hope to one day ascend to a high enough plane to perhaps peer upwards and catch the slightest glimpse of the bottoms of your soles. For we are but simple creatures operating under the delusion that video games are meant for…
