A buddy of mine once claimed that his uncle was in the possession of a total and complete shitshow. Given that those only ever change hands at private, high-profile auctions I was doubtful to say the least. Plus this was the same guy who claimed his dad worked at Nintendo.

Ah yeah, I know the scene. That’s either the end of the first movie, or the beginning of the second one. Looks like I’ll have to pop in the DVDs tonight - I’m still chuckling to myself over the idea of that being her reaction to having her unintentional nudity immortalized on film.

Details please! I hadn’t heard about that particular commentary anecdote and I’m a bit hesitant to search for that phrase on company equipment.

I’ll admit it too - I enjoyed the first Resident Evil movie as well, at least the first time. Watching the sequels (an exercise that went from curiosity, to obligation, to something akin to masochism with the later entries) quickly tainted my feelings about the first movie.

I’ll go out on a limb here and suggest that if you keep allowing a director to cast his wife as an unstoppable badass action hero in his own movies, you shouldn’t be too surprised when those movies start becoming very same-y.

Most of these look a lot like the Gears of War style of character: no neck, shoulders 3 meters wide, built like a refrigerator.

Just Two Things at its finest.

The current exchange rate on little annoyances to big nuisances is 14.6 to 1. The rate is much steeper, however, on huge problems - you’ll need about 50 big nuisances to equal one huge problem.

From everything I’ve seen and read about this movie so far, I don’t know why anyone would be even slightly surprised that the people making this are being careless with the lore of the series.

That’s a good one. One of my favorites comes from a pencil box my sister owned long ago. It featured three cartoon alligators, and the inscription “there so many alligators, so many dreams. All are grittering, aren’t they?”

Meanwhile HowToBasic has been on Youtube since 2011 with basically the same schtick. 

The day I stop laughing at good examples of Engrish is the day you can lower me into the hole and start shoveling dirt. 

Hey, it’s that one dragon boss from Smash Bros Ultimate! What’s he doing in this SyFy channel movie?

I’ve watched the video five times now. I appreciate what they were going for but I think if anything it’s too subtle. It took a reply buried in the comments (thank you Fix It Again Tony) for me to even notice that he does a little thumbs-up gesture and even when I knew to look for it I had to rewind the video three…

This kind of thing could be solved a lot easier if Facebook didn’t exist in a culture with such deeply ingrained hangups about the human body.

Hey, thanks a lot! That was more or less exactly what I wanted to know. 

That is one ugly Angry Bird.

Can anyone give me the elevator pitch on Higurashi: When They Cry - New? Does it bring anything new to the table plot-wise? That trailer makes it look like a fresh coat of paint on the same old story.
