That sounds exactly like Final Fantasy to me

I think MGS is substantially more significant than Final Fantasy right now, at least in the West.

 

[BUNTING1243]

You can say whatever you want about Dan, but the man has brought an insane amount of content to Giant Bomb. Imagine what it would be if it was still just Jeff and Brad and Drew in SF...

i barely understand how to define FF as a series really

 

[K.Sabot]

What a great Metal Gear Scanlon.

Best Metal Gear.

 

[TheMadMan007]

I like Dan, but listening to him tell me how awesome he thinks every moment of Rocky IV is sounds like my worst nightmare.

I'd rather hear Dan be exposed to stuff like Citizen Kane for the first time.

Agreed, I still can't believe he was a film study major and hasn't seen Citizen Kane or Casablanca. That was the first thing they showed me in film classes. Also, I'm getting real burnt out on Dan. It seems GB has turned into Giant Dan Bomb. I'd like some more from some of the other guys because it seems like everything is Dan centric now.

 

[justjim89]

It's because Dan thinks of a premium feature and makes it happen while Jeff and Brad occasionally go "this would make a fun premium thing" and then sit on it or never follow up. The abundance of Dan content is a direct result of Dan just thinking of shit and doing it, or so it would seem.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

No more Dans in the vending machine, PLEASE.

 

[Pattrikx]

Jason being there also enables a lot more content production which is great

I wish they'd put Jason in a premium feature

give him a UPF segment, at least.

I'm really enjoying Jason in everything he has done. That MGS3 camo color changing of Dan and Drew was great!

 

[erawsd]

Oh shit

After all the build up Im a little disapointed the Substitute isnt the first feature.

 

[SteveWinwood]

did you know

jason is the #1 duder

 

[kulapik]

I don't understand the title. What does Movies & 40's mean?

Jason/Brad MonHun premium feature please

I don't understand the title. What does Movies & 40's mean?

Watching movies while drinking a 40 (ounces of malt liquor), I would think.

 

[Megasoum]

I don't understand the title. What does Movies & 40's mean?

Watching a movie while drinking a 40s cause you know... Dan can't do anything social without drinking aclohol

 

[Zaph]

I don't understand the title. What does Movies & 40's mean?

Watching movies while drinking 40's.

 

[justjim89]

A 40 is a colloquial way of referring to a 40 ounce bottle of beer or malt liquor. It's a pretty cheep and tasteless way to get drunk.

 

[Jothel]

had my first 40 when I visited America a while back, first time having malt liqour too, what a weird drink it is, like beer wine? Wasn't bad though!

 

[Liquid Shake]

Jason/Brad MonHun premium feature please

I know you're reading Brad, make it happen!

Spoiler

All you Dan haters need to know your role

he is the best thing to happen to giantbomb!

i think Dan really injected the site with a lot of energy. what a great hire. i was pretty worried back when Vinny left. look where we are now.

 

[SmithnCo]

You can say whatever you want about Dan, but the man has brought an insane amount of content to Giant Bomb. Imagine what it would be if it was still just Jeff and Brad and Drew in SF...

Yes, MGS and Demo Derby are the best content in a while. Before the hire it was pretty dry.

Yeah that post Vinny leaving, pre Dan and Jason period was not the best for the site, absolutely understandable at the same time though.

 

[TraBuch]

Oooh, a trivial pursuit QL. I really like the trivia/board game/game show QLs.

#1 karaoke song

 

[The Dear Leader]

It's a pretty cheep and tasteless way to get drunk.

You haven't been drinking the correct 40oz malt liquor beverages my friend.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Why did all early fmv games end in a cheesy pop song

Like the song at the end phantasmagoria

 

[justjim89]

You haven't been drinking the correct 40oz malt liquor beverages my friend.

I've never really learned to like the taste of beer, though I drink it cause it's cheap. My best friend is a beer snob and is always asking me to try all these different things, but the more taste a beer has generally the more I dislike it. "Oh you can taste the hops in this!" It just tastes bad to my tongue. So for me, the best beer or malt liquor is served as cold as possible with minimal taste. Drinking is a means to an end, or a social lubricant. If I want something that tastes good, I spent all summer stocking up on Mountain Dew Baja Blast.

I'll admit I'm weird though.

With all the non-gaming content they've been doing lately, the question remains...

When is Box Office Bomb returning?

I wanna say I saw a Rorie or Alex tweet recently that said they were going to do a new one at some point?

With House of Cards coming out tomorrow, I wish they would have released the Rocky 4 thing right away. I would have watched that tonight before going to bed.

No that's not weird at all, I'm pretty much the same way, I don't like the taste of beer either, but there are some malt liquors out there that make the process of drinking one fairly enjoyable (and I can't even remember the brand of the 40 to recommend it.)

It says it's a podcast.

 

[alr1ght]

Dan has expanded Drew's exposure to trash entertainment 10 fold.

 

[Megasoum]

It says it's a podcast.

It's a commentary track for the movie... You don't just listen to it standalone, you sync it with the movie.

 

[shwimpy]

I've only seen Rocky. 2 and/or 3 worth watching before I hunt down a copy of IV?

 

[DrFunk]

IT BEGINS ANEW

 

[SteveWinwood]

I've only seen Rocky. 2 and/or 3 worth watching before I hunt down a copy of IV?

Rocky 1 is a legitimately good movie. 2 and 3 are not good movies and totally defeat the purpose of the first one. 4 is awesome just because it oozes cheesy 80s.

But sure why not, watch them all.

They're not terrible.

 

[Megasoum]

I've only seen Rocky. 2 and/or 3 worth watching before I hunt down a copy of IV?

Hmmm... Well they are all worth watching IMO (except 5) but you don't necessarly have to watch the first 3 to enjoy 4.

 

[ratcliffja]

Is Rocky IV available to stream on Amazon?

 

[SteveWinwood]

Is Rocky IV available to stream on Amazon?

it was on netflix for a while but it might be gone now

edit its gone

but bloodsport is still on there and that movie rules

 

[Lelcar]

Yeppers, it was a tumblr post from Rorie.

aww man. now i gotta pause two things at the exact same time!

 

[The Dear Leader]

Well it looks like I'll need to find a copy of Rocky IV then, I presumed it would be sort of like the Sphere podcast.

 

[tchocky]

If you want to watch Rocky IV on Netflix you can use hola unblocker to access other regions the movie is on Netflix in Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, France, Germany, Mexico and Switzerland

 

[firehawk12]

All you Dan haters need to know your role

Honestly, the only thing keeping me glued to GB is GBeast and the promise of a GBeast show.

I have 2 years of premium left and I'm not finding much of a use for it nowadays.

 

[ratcliffja]

I don't have Netflix yet, but I will probably get it in April for Daredevil. Thanks anyway.

 

[Curufinwe]

Is going on dates where you watch 80s/90s action movies just a Dan thing, or something that's common? I just got to the part of MGS where he talks about Predator being one of his date movies.

 

[justjim89]

I'll occasionally listen to The Comedy Button's movie commentaries and they're hilarious. Good to see Giant Bomb getting into the game. Just a shame the movie isn't easily accessible.
