Jesus Christ what's with all the Chronicle ads on TV? Its like 3 times a commericial break, everytime on every channel. It's some corporate brain washing, show it enough times and people are BOUND to watch it!

It's actually supposed to be pretty good.

Plus it has Vince.

VINCE.

WHERE'S WALLACE, STRING?

I remember enjoying the first one when it came out. Bearing in mind I was like 13. The second was turd but I thought the third was good. Well it was until the nooooooooooo scene

I saw Ep1 at Crown Casino cinemas, at the time it was one of the bigger screens in the country. I got headaches from the panning camera shots across vast landscapes at 24fps.

I still havent seen Ep2 and 3 aside from snippets of them when on tv.

The only real factoid I know was that the guy who played Darth Redback or whatever his name was also played Sub Zero in the Mortal Kombat Annihilation film.

Incidentally, Mortal Kombat Annihilation has more redeeming qualities than Star Wars Episode 1.

Episode 1 at least brought us Duel of the Fates and it had the always awesome Liam Neeson

Episode 2 has fucking nothing good about it.
 
Episode 3 premiere was during my first year of uni. We got super baked behind the skatepark and snuck in some goon bags for the laser show.

Enjoy your clouuuuuuud

I'm glad the prequel trilogy exists because I'm glad the Red Letter Media reviews exist.
 
The more it became explicit in Pinketts (?) true nature the more I tired of it.

When it was the odd nonsequiteur and offhand remark it was sort of cool. It was also nice to finally hear someone voice many of the concerns I had about the movie. Especially the gaping plotholes.

Kill the Jedi Diplomatic Convoy? How does that help your cause?

I find that odd. Although, as someone who dislikes Star Wars generally, I must be missing something.

I saw the prequels when I was ten and haven't seem them since. I have no emotional attachment to Star Wars, I just adore those damn videos.

I saw the original trilogy when I was 8 (at least I think that was when ROTJ was out), and have no attachment to them. I feel half old now.

I was eight when TPM was in cinemas. Cosmic.

Edit: typo above, I meant to say "the original trilogy" when I was 10
 
England lol. Great to see Pakistan doing well.

Jack & Jill review is entertaining to me. Mainly because I hate what Sandler has become.

Fixed to reflect (hopefully) more realistic and accessible wishes for myself. I'd chop out the "naked" as well, but you gotta have some icing on that cake.
Start small, focus on lady!

I first saw the original Star Wars trilogy when I was 8 and grew attached to them because they were great movies. Then I remember playing the first level of Rogue Squadron 2 immediately after buying my Gamecube and thinking how fucking amazing it was.

I still see screenshots of Rogue Squadron 2 and think it looks fantastic. They absolutely nailed the look of the movies and feel of their space battles in a way that games that played better never managed.

Come to think of it, it's crazy not just how many good Star Wars games have been made, but also how many of them are recognised classics to people who don't even need to like Star Wars.

You don't even need to look all the amazing adventure games Lucasarts made, Tie Fighter and Jedi Knight II alone would have made that company legend.

It's such a shame how downhill they went.

Also, Also, earbud recommendations. Go!

Cods is recommending shure se215 and shaneus is in the UE700 camp. Less than <100$ is the price range.

Did anyone else really enjoy Republic Commando? I remember thinking that game was sweet. It seemed like an awesome starting point for a franchise. I mainly wanted Imperial Commando. That would have been rad.

Welcome dude! And do answer the questions, how else are we meant to judge and pigeon hole you immediately?

So asking a girl out on valentines day itself, yay or nay

Totally yay.

I am still amazed Jint is back in the game so quickly. Got some skills yo!

I'm faking self-confidence, but since self-confidence is nothing more than projection, if you fake it enough it becomes real

MCV posted a link to a pastebin re: PALGN. Eat, should I link or no?
