There was only a snippet of the film (around ~15 mins) as my dad had taped over it, but it would've been around late 80s early 90s I believe. Foreign movies usually get played pretty early after release on SBS. Seen Ziemia Obiecona, that wasn't it. It wasn't Polish.

This is perhaps the greatest thing I've read on NMA this year.

I'm trying to find a movie I vaguely remember from my childhood. It was most likely an Eastern European movie and the bits I can remember are a bunch of factory workers go on strike, they prepare heaps of nuts and bolts and the army comes in to restore order. Over the course they use fire...

Fixed.

Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - Such an awesome classic. If you haven't played it, find some way to obtain it. In fact, I may eBay it. I haven't played it in like 7 years, too long for such an awesomeness classic. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis - If this we're indy 4...

I've been playing Majesty 1 a bit today. It's good, but it's definitely lacking something.

Currently reading Medici Money: Banking, Aetaphysics and Art in Fifteenth Century Florence by Tim Parks. It's interesting, but the writing style irritates me a fair bit. It's sort of written in a way that the author hopes a 15 year old will be interested in. I spend around 300AUD on amazon...

Agreed. Too much purple prose, too much filler, not enough substance. I think I read 4 of the books, and by read I mean i skipped every 5 pages of no dialogue.

Men are something like 6 times more likely to commit suicide. Men have a much higher rate of homelessness and are homeless for longer. There are recognized and not insignificant lobby groups for every race and gender but straight white males. Also, and by far the worst, women are far...

I played a game similar to this called bridgebuilder. After playing BB, I can't really see the novelty to WoG. Played it for a little while, saw it as merely average.

So it turns out that the design documents of one of the best ever point and click games ever have been released. For your viewing pleasure, I present you with The link to the link which contains the documents.

Not much will change. It never does. But I'd prefer Obama to McCain easily. At least America will have a better public image overseas.

Yeha, I've been watching it and loving it. Always like zombies. Only thing I don't like about it is the way the zombie action is done. It's all jolty too fast camera.

They usually give up the chase/run into a tree pretty quickly. It's not difficult to figure out. You keep your car in good nick and you should be able to outdrive them.

What are you, retarded? You can just drive through.

3 years of heavy use mean the volume knob doesn't spin very easily, the bases of two speakers are broken and the wires are aging. It'd all be pretty replaceable if Logitech had a spares center somewhere in Australasia, but they don't so...

That's what I currently have, it's worked well for me so far but it is starting to show signs of wear and tear.

I consider myself a bit of an audiophile, but really the only thing I've invested in are my $500AUD (back then) Logitech z-5500 speakers. Bass is a bit muddy, but otherwise it's pretty damn awesome. I once put computer, speaker and amp volume to max and my glass of whiskey fell off the table...

Here's some funny quotes I've stumbled upon in my time. "if these bastards cause the end of the earth then i will make sure that the fuckers live a life of hell in hell. they need to be stopped it's a pointless experiment. kill everybody in the name of science why don't u. fucking pricks."...
