IRL, legally insane people are insane... and while dangerious, aren't Joker level dangerious. And Supermax prisons are not easy to excape... if fact, i don't think anyone has ever gotten out of a true supermax... I may be wrong.
So, it's difficult to blend fact with fiction in this case, but, if i had to hazzerd a guess, if someone ever proved themselves to be as dangerious as the Joker, and couldn't be held, like the joker, the goverment, in the intrests of public safety, whould have to put him down, reguardless of his mental issues. At the end of the day, your elected officals are there to keep the public safe. And sometimes, doing so can be a dirty job. Which is why i don't really blame Batman for Jokers constent excaping and murdering spress. It's a failing of Gothems legal system and general common sence IMO. -

48 +/- hrs til I see the Expendibles since I am off on Saturday

THere is a review thread of SP out there. Where is the Expendables thread? Huh? Huh? Not good enough is it?
Just Kidding
In all seriousness, has anyone watched it yet? Here is to hoping it was decent. Without spoilers please. Did they actually manage to get character development in on each actor?
Either way, hope everyone enjoys their movie choices this weekend!! -
The fiance and I see no reason to subscribe to multiple MMO's so we often take a break. We always come back though. Each game we play has something the other simply can not compare to. No I will not give examples lol.

You need to have a free slot to move the character to.
You will get 2 slots free at the same time as the transfer though which is really nice

How does the server transfer work? If I transfer to a server with 12 toons on it, will I have to delete some or will they count as extra character slots?

Quote:Ah well. We were using that server to house our EATs but the base was just not coming along. Slowly we are bringing them to our filled servers.Originally Posted by Steelclaw
Actually, yes there is(was)... but I started that one so late it's almost not worth taking it even to get a head-start.
Pinnacle only has the smallest Workshop and one Enhancement Table with nothing in it. I don't think it even has a respectable amount of Prestige.
Actually I may check out the free server transfer. -
Nothing on Pinnacle, Steelclaw?

Have you considered a Kryptonite Shield which reflects Superman laser beams back as Kryptonite beams?
That is one thing that always bothers me about Superman, actually. He has a perfectly good and potent ranged weapon, yet he almost *never* makes use of it unless it's to do something relatively dumb.
But over all you are right about Superman. I think we could say it is due to the fact that his heat vision is a lethal attack. Nevermind that with one punch he could level mountains. -
Quote:Plot armor.Originally Posted by Warkupo
EDIT: @BlackArachnia
Batman wouldn't get hit by a Sniper, because he would have PREPARED his location ahead of time so that he was never open for a shot by a sniper rifle.
Also, in Batman: Arkham Asylum, all Sniper Rifles in the world have a red beam and make a loud noise when they are aiming at you.
So there.
He can't plan where he enters all the time, there may only be one entrance. The sniper can plan to have the proper entrance waiting to set up, not the sniped. I do not think snipers use laser scopes, it would defeat the purpose. By the time the sound gets to the sniped, they are usually dead. The sniper can also avoid letting the criminal element know the plan by simply setting up a perfect heist. In other words, they hire a gallery to show a piece of art, knowing that it will attract criminals. Art shows go up all the time.
In other words, no he can't plan that well, and I like Batman. He has plot armor. Superman could fry his Batman's brain from orbit. No amount of kryptonite kept on Batman could protect him. -

Dude that sounds like a chick steak! Bleu cheese? What next are you having this with a nice wine?!
We are drinking Warsteiner, a German Beer. We are having steak with maybe AI and some Green Chilis.
We are not foo fooing it like you, LOT! Major Disappointment. We might have to revoke your Man Card.

Quote:Oh for Chrissake that is the second most stupidest explanation I have ever heard.Originally Posted by Marcian Tobay
Funny note: In the limited edition Dead Girl run, they actually explain that: In the Marvel Universe, the celestial powers that be can hear public outcry for their most beloved people. When the cry gets loud enough, they arrange events to allow for a deceased one's revival.
Yes, "Back by popular demand" is actually a canonical idea in the Marvel-verse. And for that, I absolutely love them. -
Quote:Reminds me of a thread I was going to write a while ago. Most heroes and villains have plot armor. For goodness sake, all it would take to kill Batman OR Superman would be a sniper. Batman does not have enhanced senses, and someone could arrange for a crime to be commited while stationing a sniper watching the entrance a mile away. Batman would never see it coming. As for Superman, replace the bullet with kryptonite, and where as he can hear and dodge said bullet, his own confidence would not lead him to examine the bullet before it hit him, and he would let it hit him thinking it would bounce off.Originally Posted by Comeuppance
I can't imagine any serious villain in the DCU being scared of The Joker. Heck, Deadshot had the drop on him not too long ago and if not for interference, the clown would be pushin' up daisies.
As for the topic, no, he is not. Batman does more to stop the Joker than anyone else, and all heroes have to leave it to the legal system. Otherwise Luthor would be ash already. -

Quote:The only movie my fiance almost walked out on. The tunnel scene. I don't blame her there. For me it was the new Dawn of the Dead. The opening sequence where everything went nuts in her house, in particular her niece. Children in those roles scare the living heck out of me.Originally Posted by CaptainFoamerang
Pfft, that was foreplay.
edit: And is this not about Ryan Reynolds/ RIPD?
Has anyone read RIPD? The cover looks kind of cartoonish. -
Quote:Oddly enough, I liked Howard the Duck.Originally Posted by galadiman
Agree with Obsidius.
Well, "loved" might be strong. But one of the worst? (On a par with Howard the Duck, Stop or my Mom will Shoot, Gigli, Chairman of the Board, It's Pat?) Dude, either you haven't seen many movies, or your movie sense is a little skew.
Leah Thompson *grrr and wink*
I also liked the music in the movie. I have not seen the others you listed, but the It's PaT show belonged into the "WTF skit from SNL" curse. -
Well either way Fire Lilly, as my main has been on Infinity since launch, I am sure we ran into one another. The hug stands. Hope to see you back soon!

Quote:Nope, I did not click the links as you said they were critics. Heck there are people in this forum alone that bash Fellowship of the Rings, one of the best movies I ever saw.Originally Posted by Agonus
Did you even check any of those links I posted? Sarcasticgamer.com is reviewing the comic, and destructoid.com is in there too. A far cry from the elitist reviewers with no sense of fun you're talking about.
I have not read the comic. I know very little about it. It simply looks cool. It's like everyone jumping on how fun The Expendables will be. I saw an article today, and found out who many of the actors are. They are athletes, not actors. That does not inspire confidence in me what so ever. -
Quote:OK, either we all listen to critics, and take their word for everything, or we ignore them.Originally Posted by Agonus
Do you really think they are going to give the Expendables a high score? No.
Critics do not tell me that is good. Most of them miss out on the point of a movie, TO HAVE FUN! This is why things like A Beautiful Mind, American Beauty, and Slumdog Millionaire always dominate the Oscars. There ARE action movies, and fantasy movies that are well acted, and well written. Critics just do not see them as art.
Are we going to listen to the same type of people that look at comic books as being childish and amatuerish instead of something that can have a great story and great art work?
NO!!
Well, to quote another man, "I may not know art, but I know what I like." -

Zombieland.
Oh, and 28 Days Later.
*shudders in memory of some of the scenes.*
Whenever I get up to go to the bathroom, I recall the scene where the infected burst through his window as he was watching the movie. -

You will be missed! -
Quote:I could so see a Kefka type villain using that.Originally Posted by Marcian Tobay
... Holy amazing.
I'm fairly certain that, in another dimension, Nobuo Uematsu used that for a villains theme in Final Fantasy. It sounds gorgeous and has a sweeping, villainous air about it.
Or should I say hear..... -
Ryan Reynolds also does well in RomComs.
I wonder....
think they will make a RomZom some day? -
As much as I really do not care, I have a feeling this will do decently in box office the opening week. DVD release will also sell well.
As for the sequel... what's he going to do, bring in Betty White? -
This sounds promising. Thank ya LoT, I will keep an eye out for this.
