Comment on Battle: Los Angeles Poster (2010-12-31 01:26:59)
Which is understandable. If I financed a movie, I'd want to know that the people working on it were doing their utmost to make sure I got a good return on my investment. If they said "we're announcing the movie the day before it comes out lol!" I'd be pretty pissed. I guess what I'm saying, in my long and rambling way, is that despite that, early release announcements seem to have the opposite effect on me: by the time they're released, I'm all hyped out and just don't care anymore.
Comment on Battle: Los Angeles Poster (2010-12-31 00:39:24)
This may seem like the most asinine thing to complain about, but why most movie/game/etc creators torment us by announcing things so far in advance? I understand wanting to make sure the hype train leaves its station on time, but really a month-long blitz should be just as effective as a multi-month grueling campaign, no? The worst offender I can remember is the Simpsons movie. I saw the poster for it when I was at the theater, went, "Dude! Sweet!" and then saw that the release date was FOURTEEN FUCKING MONTHS LATER! Now take this movie. It looks quite entertaining. It's not out for another 3.5 months. Three and a half months of waiting for something feels like fucking forever, and once it does finally come out, it'll never live up to your built up expectations. So the best thing is to forget about it until closer to the release date. Problem is, I'll likely wind up forgetting about it until sometime in April when someone says, "Hey have you seen Battle: LA yet?" Then I'll be like, "Yet? It's out now? What the fuck?" Also, fuck that little watermark in the corner that says "Coming Soon". There are very few situations where 14 weeks constitutes "soon", and a movie release is not one of them. Personally, I think movies should be announced with great fanfare the day before they come out. All of a sudden this trailer will pop out of nowhere and be like, "HOLY CRAP LOOK AT THIS AWESOME SHIT YOU CAN GO LOOK AT!" and people will be like "HOLY CRAP THAT IS AWESOME SHIT I WANT TO LOOK AT WHEN CAN I LOOK AT IT?!" and the trailer will be like "FUCKING TOMORROW!" and people will be like "FUCKING YES!!!" Three months from now, my current excitement will likely have dwindled to the point where I'll just end up waiting for a decent torrent and watching it at home.

I thought I'd report back that my attempts to detonate a pound of raw hamburger ended in catastrophic failure. Tender, delicious failure...

Comment on Circle Puzzle (2010-10-23 05:35:51)
I'm not sure how long it took me, really. I kinda skimmed past the actual question and thought I was supposed to find the measurements of the other 2 sides of the triangle. Which I did, but I needed to determine the radius of the circle, which was the answer to the fucking question, and I don't remember when I figured that out. I really shouldn't try to do this shit while drunk. Well, not drunk, exactly, but definitely buzzed.

Canada: Goatse-ing the world since 1867.
Comment on is this installer still running (2010-10-01 23:29:35)
I do at work, to manage our robotic tape repository (which is nowhere near as cool as it sounds), and I hate it. I loathe & despise it with the passionate fury of a thousand suns, but it still works, after a fashion, so we can't get approval to buy something better. On the upside, my boss got a dartboard for the breakroom with Peter Norton's smug face on it, so at least I have an awesome boss.
Comment on Todays paycheck (2010-08-31 00:31:48)
Man... I work between 2 & 3 days a week, and my 2-week paycheck is bigger than that. Which means when I'm back to fulltime in the Fall, I'll be making more than twice as much money as An King... Normally making more money than someone else doesn't really concern me, but in this case I'm gonna make an exception and feel all warm & fuzzy about it.
Comment on You aren't as gangster as me (2010-08-17 04:11:16)
Dear MCS Posters: Please refrain from posting pictures of yourself taken while on the shitter, especially when: a) You look constipated b) Someone else clearly took the picture It's just fuckin weird.
Comment on Haters gonna hate (2010-08-12 15:40:20)
I was gonna say church. The old guy's combination of "friendly old man" and "deviant pervert" would be ideal for a priest. And when I was growing up, the only time I saw black people was at church. Then I'd always hear the little old ladies grumbling about the church letting black folks in, and I'd be all, "What was that Jesus said about love & tolerance and all that?" and the old ladies would give a me a cookie and tell me to shut the fuck up. Outside church, I'd get a smack upside the head for that sort of thing, so I guess religion does some good.

Also, atheIST. Goddamn.
Comment on Atheist's arguments (2010-08-03 05:14:44)
So... What part of there being this big all knowing, all seeing dude who lives up in the sky somewhere but is invisible, who loves us all more than a mere human mind could possibly comprehend but is willing to condemn us to a fucking eternity of pain & suffering for eating shellfish seems logical, exactly? I would have that that it seems kinda the opposite.
Comment on Is Cannabis treated unfairly? (2010-07-17 17:25:33)
I was more surprised about where LSD wound up on the list. If you're trying to convince people that weed is OK, saying, "It's only a bit more dangerous than acid" probably isn't the best way to go about things.
Comment on say hi to mommy (2010-07-10 05:17:40)
At first I was like holy shit that kid's gonna shoot that man in the face. Then I was like holy shit that man who's about to get shot in the face has boobs. Then I was like that man with boobs who's about to get shot in the face has fucking huge hands. Then I was like, he fucking deserves it wearing those fucking sandals.
Comment on KICK ASS - MARY SUE (2010-06-13 01:26:35)
I too am confused as to how this qualifies as a "hipster movie". The only explanation I can come up with is that "hipster" has become such a bland and overused term that is basically means, "Someone I don't like who doesn't fit into any other easily identifiable category". And Mary Sue? Really? It's a superhero movie. Most of the Mary Sue criteria go right out the window the moment superheroes get involved, so the only one who remotely could be considered a Mary Sue is the little kid (Hit Girl?), and no one gives a shit about that because 11 year old serial killers are fucking awesome.
