  1. I personally really liked it, but I sometimes wonder if it helped glorify the "villians" a little too much. Zombie spent the majority of the movie trying to get you to feel uncomfortable because of their actions (the rape scene was expecially disturbing), but then all of a sudden we're supposed to sympathize. I think what bothers me about it is not so much that it felt like it was too little too late, but it actually was effective enough to work fairly well, but I'm not well enough for me not to feel kind of bad for it. On the other hand, that was probably his intentions. The movie really is one that will screw with your head well beyond anything shock value can deliver (which makes it far superior to the first one). In the end, the villains aren't so much disturbing as is your willingness to sympathize with them after they have done all of those horrible things. It really is the grand finale in that plan. He builds it up with the development in their relationships with each other and by showing the ugliness of the "good guys." When the Free Bird scene comes up you find the lines between good guys and bad guys so blurred that you begin to shift your sympathy with the Rejects because of the atmosphere that the song creates. So I guess, ultimately, it worked. I just don't like being messes with, I guess. Why do you do this to me, Rob?!
  2. Fucking brilliant...I guess I should be happy though, this way we might actually stay in the Championship for a few seasons.
  3. I've loved Film Four since it's inception, a lot of the time it's just far more appealing that the billion sky movie channels there are. ...and then my love for it tripled when I saw Infernal Affairs is going to be shown
  4. My first playthough was definitely my best Blitzball wise. I'd never lost a game, and I had some of the best techs for pretty much every character. Tidus was a pimp with Tackle Slip, Jecht Shot, Sphere Shot, and that twirly tornado one whatever it's called
  5. As far as pimptacular characters go, I've always had a soft spot for Setzer. After all, how I can I not love a gambling womaniser who owns his own airship?
  6. I could never get into Dream Theater myself...no idea why. I wholeheartedly agree with: Dragonforce Dream Evil Battlelore Yngwie Malmsteen Kelly Clarkson Helloween ...and one of my own, Morris Day & The Time.
  7. If not for those bastard Basilisk's, Mushroom Rock Road would be one of the easiest places in the game to earn sphere levels early in the game. *hates how only Yuna is immune to petrify* Ah, Djose temple...this would be a breeze if I didn't have to mess about getting the hidden treasures to unlock Anima.
  8. Someone let me know when you get up to Operation Mi'ihen, I'm currently playing through it again myself and I saved it on the beach post aftermath.
  9. Hope: Sunderland stay in the Championship for a few seasons and get their shit together. Fear: They go back up somehow, and we get a repeat of the embarassment last season.
  10. I've been a fan of Maiden for as long as I care to remember, and they still rock my socks. I really enjoyed the song, and it's got me pumped for the album.
  11. I've been wanting to watch this since it started, but keep missing them. I saw the last ten minutes of last night's and what I saw was fairly funny. I'm making sure to catch it in full next week.
  12. Nice...top right's my favourite, oh how I'd like to jump in that river right now
  13. Scanning through Here I came up with: Bleeding Doll Records Candlelight Records Copro Records Elitist Records Sadistic Echo Todestrieb Records
  14. Hell yeah, I'm sure we could get up to crazier shit than they did
  15. Whoops...not the best parking job in the world. Bwahaha...he mowed down a tent
  16. At least he was faster than Jimmy Carr
  17. Bwahaha that's some hole Brian Cox
  18. Clarkson's got it right...bus drivers are bastards
  19. And Rocko's Modern Life...and Courage The Cowardly Dog... ...damnit Edit: It could just be me, but does anyone else have the overwhelming urge to dance as they sing the Freakazoid theme?
