    Omg. Guns of Icarus is so freaking fun. Airships! SOMEONE COME PLAY WITH ME

    I had a 4 man team for that game we would play with ventrilo and wreck face. It was too easy with a premade group. Then if I try to play solo I get wrecked by the premade group!


    I can see how a premade group could wreck face. You're more comfortable with each other and can co-ordinate better. Tried playing with strangers yesterday against pre-made clans/teams in a 2v2. Was surprisingly fun yelling at each other over push to talk and we won a couple of times. My only gripe is that there's only a handful of players around at all times, ~50 people, which I find rather small!

    Never read the book by Orson Scott Card, but I absolutely loved the movie version of Ender's Game. I was so nervous for the protagonist at one point I went 'eeeeeee' in the cinema, and my friends thought I was nuts. <_<

    Definitely recommend it - went in with no expectations and loved it more than Thor. I don't know how it measures up against the books though, so fair warning.

    It was positive in that it made me want to read the book/series.
    As a film, I felt there were major gaps in character development and not much indication of time passing (aside from one mention of months going by, it could've taken place over about a week). I loved the idea and really wanted it to be better.

  • If the creators of the movie don't share Card's preoccupation with naked little boys, I'll count it an improvement.

    Card is a moron but his books are good. I feel bad for giving him money.

  • Beat Pokemon X this afternoon. Endgame ahoy!
  • I went into Ender's Game thinking "This is going to totally suck if I compare it to the book... forget the book" and then I enjoyed it. When I thought about the whole of the story, I didn't like the movie.
    I mean... it would take several movies to get that story right and thorough.
    It's sorta like the Hunger Games. Those books were pretty fun adventures. The movie sucked. I imagine movie two is gonna suck. But when you can fill in the blanks of the movie with the knowledge of the book it's a little better.

    p.s. the kid that played Bean??? SO WRONG.


  • JurixeJurixe Where you least expect it
    Haha now I really have to read the book. It's always that way though, kind of. But I also don't know if I want to read it because if I do and it's so much better than the movie then it'll ruin the movie. :(

    Finding the perfect Secret Santa gift for the person I got. This is going to be so awesome. :D
    Isn't that a bit early? How are the chances you leave it to the last minute?
    Nope! Our company christmas party is on the 1st of December, so that's when we'll be handing the gifts out. I already ordered it and it's been shipped.

    Viva la Bluef.
  • So was checking my messages on the website - internet's having a moment, so I'm not even going to try to log in - and I find that I've been made and Aide to a house position, and been removed due to inactivity about five hours later.

    I don't know why I found that so funny, but I did.

    Happy birthday @Melodie! :)

    Also, totally agree with @Skye. He actually didn't make a huge appearance in this movie (well, it is supposed to be about Thor, named after him and all) but my favourite part was probably that walk with him and Thor down the palace hallway <_< I was overall pretty underwhelmed by it, though my guy friends inexplicably loved it.

    I personally thought it could have done with an extra half an hour to flesh out some of the scenes more - the whole thing felt quite rushed, to be honest. My friend that hadn't watched Thor 1 said she couldn't feel the chemistry at all - understandable, but still. I really wanted to like it more than I did - and the reason I said it was surprising is because my friends normally hate movies without a good plot.

    Apparently Thor is an exception, but that also might just be me.

    But Loki :X
    :x

    Every time I see @Aepas' profile pic I think "are you there God, it's me Margaret." Gives me a chuckle each time.
     yes, sir.
