so Michael Bay

"Bay's seven movies ("The Rock," "Armageddon," "Pearl Harbor," "The Island," the two "Bad Boys" films and the earlier "Transformers") before the sequel averaged $152.5 million in domestic theaters, according to the website Box Office Mojo.

That places him alongside "Transformers" producer Steven Spielberg (average gross: $156.9 million as a director), "Titanic's" Jim Cameron ($163.8 million) and "The Lord of the Rings' " Peter Jackson ($159 million). What's more, all of Bay's previous movies have grossed more overseas than they have domestically."

I love this tax woman! I am getting about 4.1k$ back after fees and then our PM decided to give every pleb under 100k$ a year 900$ to stimulate the economy.
Of course it's bad for the economy but if everyone else is getting it, I won't say no - so 5k$ to me.
I no longer have a shred of guilt for buying an i7.

Would there be interest in a BF1942 Shackbattle on Sunday, July 5th? It's the day after Americans celebrate Independence Day, I figure there's a tie in, plus the last time we did this was like 6 months ago so I figure it might be time again.

I'd like to see if there's interest, if so maybe the usual suspects can ensure there's going to be a server, hot chat action, all that. Thoughts?

So Heroes of Newarth beta, what a shitty community. Good players stack, but you dont know that at first, so you lose. Hard. The game is complex, very steep learning curve.

But the game keep track of stats, and they are public. So after a few beatdown, your k:d ratio is like 0.1:1, and then nobody wants you on their team, so you cant play.

Great, a beta that convinced me NOT to buy a game!

Hey Shack !

I'm wondering... The game setting thread got me thinking: Is there a name specifically for the NOLF 1/2 setting ? Its the spy 1950s-1960s theme, but its more specific than that, with the bright colors, wacky dresses, bright colors, music, etc...

here are some screenshots and images (from OSS 117 which has this setting too). I'm a complete sucker for this setting, and I can't get enough of it. I keep replaying those games and rewatching that movie.

Wow. Bought Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete and was really expecting something special.

15 minutes in and I was saying, "What the fuck is happening now? Why did we see that? Who are those dudes? Why are none of these conversations informative?"

I never got a chance to play FF_VII, so I was prepared to be "out of the loop" on some details, but I expected the movie to make sense based on the sweaty-palms hype I read about it. I think the CGI was really impressive, but there were a lot of anime-type standards that annoyed the hell out of me, like the constant "Hmph!" "Hmmm" "Oh! Ah!" "Hmph!" nonsense and the tired-ass reluctant hero with a guilty conscience crap. And the mystical life-force deus ex-machina endings always makes me furious.

Fight scenes were enjoyable though, with the mild exception of some of the motorcycle highway stunts. I couldn't help but roll my eyes a few times. Only I still don't understand how Cloud could survive the ass kicking he got from Sephiroth. He got sliced like a million times and was skewered on dude's sword. Mystical shit again?

Well today is the day! Alice in Chains releases the first single from their new CD, Black Gives Way to Blue. The song is called "A Looking in View" and its pretty rocking. I don't hear a whole lot of the new singer, but hes definitely doing a lot of harmony with Cantrell. It really does "feels" like an AiC song though, or something off of Boggy Depot at the very least.

http://www.aliceinchains.com

You have to register and get a link in your email to download. Worth the effort if you're a fan. I have to say, for years I've relegated myself to the fact that every Alice In Chains song I would ever hear for the rest of my life would be one that I've already heard before and its going to be a pretty big deal to me to have a new CD from my all-time favorite band.

SC2 Writeup from 'the pros' who play heavily.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=96528

The first day for me was about trying out new things like the mechanics and new units and tech trees. I quickly noticed something bad though, and I am really disappointed and worried that Blizzard did not do anything about it since Blizzcon: The units still don't react fast enough. As Chill described it last year, there is certain latency built into the unit handling, which makes proper micro impossible. This is something that really needs to be addressed by Blizzard as it severely hurts the gameplay.

I'm finally getting around to playing Battlefield Bad Company on the 360.

I thought there were more game modes than Capture The Gold, but up to this point that's all I've played. Didn't I read they added something like the classic BF capture points game mode too?

Prince of Persia (not the old ones those were fun) is the worst fucking game ever. I hated it. I only beat it because I bought it. It took me 7 months. Do not play it. Do not buy it, not even used. Nothing about it is fun. I will never buy another prince of persia because of it. It only had one good point, it was pretty. </rant>

D&D4e Menz

Some friends and I are just learning the ropes and starting to play, and we noticed one thing (we're newbs):

We printed power cards out with the D&D Insider Char creator. At the bottom of specific powercards (that make use of our equipped weapons, for a 1[W] attack, etc) it listed our Attack Bonus on the weapon, and sometimes a damage bonus (I don't have one laying here).

Now, lets say the attack is STR vs AC; we've just been adding the STR bonus to the rolls (taking into account flanking, cover, combat advantage, etc). But we've been thinking we should probably be adding just the overall attack bonus (which takes into account STR, proficiency, etc). Do we leave damage alone?

Help me obiwan

So last night by pure chance I watched Lost in Translation again. Aside from reminding me what a fucking incredible piece of filmmaking that is, it also reminded me of this thing that appears in that movie I've always wondered about.

When they first go out to a Tokyo bar together with some friends, they get chased out of the place by a guy firing what looks like an Airsoft MP5SD except it shoots awesome looking green tracers? Is there such a thing as Airsoft tracer bullets? How is that even possible?
