scarletspeed7 02/18/18 8:59:09 PM #453 | LiquidOshawott posted... Isaac Asimov Rating: 80/100 Probably the most brilliant mind in science fiction ever. However, his writing style was always very, very dry. I think I have to be in the right mood to read him nowadays. Still, Foundation is a fundamental science fiction narrative, the groundwork for so much in modern sci fi. I wish we could get a Foundation TV series on HBO. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

The British Empire Rating: 87/100 I mean you could argue that there were atrocities in every non-white territory that left long, painful scars on a variety of countries that were founded in the 20th century, but let's just focus on the part where prim and proper wealthy white folk enjoy midday meals and discuss minor gossip in veiled undertones. That's what Britain always was about. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

scarletspeed7 02/18/18 8:51:29 PM #62 | ImTheMacheteGuy posted... I watch Tarantino movies by default. I "saw" the dragon one in the sense that I played poker with a buddy of mine and his brother and sister in law while their kids watched it. I actually was curious by cabin in the woods trailers, never saw matrix or American psycho or Batman begins trailers. Which star ears? I didn't see the new one. ImTheMacheteGuy posted...

If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but it didn't represent itself well when it had the chance. To paraphrase Janet, "It's not Biblical heaven." Also, if you let trailers be the only thing that decided your viewing habits, you wouldn't have watched Batman Begins (terrible trailer), Star Wars (probably one of the worst trailers I've ever seen), the Matrix, American Psycho, Cabin in the Woods, How to Train Your Dragon, any Tarantino movie... --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

There has never been a comedy that has had funny commercials. Tend to agree. The best comedies can't be sold in 30 second packages. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

scarletspeed7 02/18/18 11:58:08 AM #440 | Anagram posted... Tidus (FFX) Rating: 43/100 Not a fan. His dialogue is poorly written and the character seems incapable of learning or reasoning. He's very much a static character placed into dynamic situations. Ultimately, if I am to compare Tidus to the great titans of literature - the characters of a Hemingway or a Dickens, I find him lacking. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

scarletspeed7 02/18/18 11:17:49 AM #430 | Anagram posted... Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Rating: 100/100 One of my favorite games ever. The tone of the game was always tinged with just enough darkness to keep my uncomfortable at the right times while still luring me in with some places with peace and serenity that allowed me to be lulled into a false sense of security. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

Something about Frusciante's final collaborations with the group really works. The guitar provides such a unique texture to the music.

Of course, Gaiman's primarily amazing for his work with Sandman - and most people don't realize that Sandman was like his tenth choice of a DC franchise to work on. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

I think it will be impossible to duplicate. I fondly remember the first chalkboard in 52 with great affection. DC also used to get big artists to make these two-page spreads as advertisements with a bunch of random details that hinted at what was to come. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |

scarletspeed7 02/18/18 10:49:20 AM #19 | I will say this though: so far, no Marvel lead is as interesting as Doctor Strange. And the space for Black Panther is limited until we get more characters like Namor and Dr. Doom in the MCU.

And if he beats Batman, there is nothing Batman can do about it. It's nice to see the Riddler glean some of the respect he so richly deserves in the DCU proper. --- "Reading would be your friend." ~Dave Meltzer |
