I like that. It's rather spagetti-western-ish. I could picture a western cRPG with that as the opening music. 8/10. There's something nice about a foxy chick who can sing and play bass:

Wow, I never realized Firefly got cancelled so quickly. I thought there were two seasons, at least. But then, I never watched it straight through. Quite a numbskull decision from one of the prick Hollywood gatekeepers. That town is run by a handful of douchebags.

While that's certainly true, I'm not sure it's a good standard to use to judge the new movie. I got wrapped up watching Taxi Driver again last night. So good. It had never occurred to me before, but upon reflection it's quite clear that...

Mr. Show with Bob and David? Worth checking out.

It's pretty good. Solid Joss Whedon fare. I wouldn't say it's rushed, but it got cancelled (prematurely, I might add) after two or three seasons, so they wrapped up the story in the movie Serenity.

It's very easy to spot them: http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424127887323848804578608040780519904 Things have really been going in the wrong direction for the past 20-30 years, actually. 9-11 just gave our government a perfect excuse to implement this kind of garbage on an unprecedented level.

A long time ago I got a free copy of vanilla Sword of the Stars (possibly from the Paradox newsletter, I can't remember exactly). I played it a bit, then set it aside. A few weeks ago, I started it up again, and I enjoyed it enough to buy the whole collection with all the expansions. I now...

Desolate...that's a good word. However, I don't think the entire world needs to be desolate. The world merely needs desolate places to explore. For example, I wouldn't necessarily call the setting of Gothic and Gothic 2 desolate, but it has desolate places in abundance. In particular it has...

Yep, that sounds like a good description of a Richard Linklater movie. I'm interested to see Boyhood, but not interested enough to go out of my way. You might also like Before Sunrise, which I greatly appreciated. I didn't enjoy the sequel, Before Sunset, as much, and haven't seen the third...

I'm not the one who demanded something be changed and then got my way.

I don't love that stuff, sorry. I guess it's just not my kind of thing. 6/10. Bags Groove - Miles Davis and friends:

Bad taste in your opinion. In my opinion, removing the poem is in bad taste. Why does your opinion get to trump mine? This is not something I'm going to waste any time caring about, but on the other hand I support any revolution against the Tyranny of the Squeaky Wheel.

I feel more pity than hate for Travolta. And scientology or no scientology, Battlefield Earth is Bad with a capital B. As a fan of Saturday Night Fever, I don't think I could ever really hate Travolta. He's contributed a few good moments to the world of movies. Not to mention Welcome Back...

Breaking Bad certainly left a lot of unanswered questions about Gus. I agree a show about him could be good. I like BCS so far. I think it started out a bit slow, but it's been picking up speed all season. I've got my fingers crossed for the finale tomorrow night. Compared to Breaking Bad...

I think it would be more accurate to define the kinds of worlds the OP is talking about as dystopian or non-dystopian. "Living world" sounds too much like marketing-speak, and "dead world" sounds much too static, as though the setting is inert. I guess I don't have a preference (a well-crafted...

Nice to hear about your experiences with the Tavor, JohnnyEgo. That's a weapon that has interested me from afar for a long time.

I don't hate that. I don't listen to that kind of music much anymore, but (and this may seem like a stretch) it reminds me a little of when I used to listen to The Exploited when I was a teenager. I'll toss it a 7/10. I give you "I'm Glad You're Mine" by Al Green from 1972:

I sat through most of Battlefield Earth yesterday. Wow, what a wretched movie. It was kind of fascinating seeing all the different ways it was bad, like watching a horrific car accident. The strangest thing about it is that almost every single shot is filmed with the camera tilted about 30...

That's some classic 70s stoner rock. I honestly haven't listend to much Jethro Tull before, but I like it. I'll give it 7/10, but I might give it 8/10 for someone willing to listen to it the right way, which means getting really baked and slouching on a bean bag chair. EDIT: After reading the...

For any of you who liked Breaking Bad, I hope you try watching Better Call Saul.
