I've watch the first 3 episodes of both now and I am slightly favouring Grimm. Although I do find the Evil Queen/Mayor eminently watchable.
My problems with Once Upon A Time mainly take the form of complaining to myself that the character's motives are all somewhat pantomime followed quickly by *facepalm*
Once Upon A Time has also made me realise how bitchy I am! I mean, this look does absolutely nothing for you! She looks far sexier as the Major.
Plus the Huntsman totally has the hots for the Major.

Just want to say (and I think this very thread supports it) that audiences don't type-cast actors, producers do.
It also annoys me when the news agencies run stories about "actor/actress from successful cult genre X performing in mainstream genre Y" because they will inevitably do a bit about "fans of cult genre X coming to watch genre Y" and it will usually be pretty condescending. Whereas the simple truth is that people will follow actors they enjoy. -
Quote:I quite enjoyed Space Marine. Not a very long game but fun. The hero gets led away by the Inquisition at the end. Which I was (sorry Monty Python) totally expecting.Originally Posted by Nihilii
Fat chance. Everyone wants to be a space marine, but nobody wants to be a Space Marine... Somehow, most people don't like being in the shoes of a psycopathic, xenophobic, conditioned killing machine.
In the grim darkness of the current present, there is only franchises ; dumbed down in the name of mass consumption and the almighty dollar. Really, wh40k is a setting best left to strategy games (so you can ignore the massive dump they take on the lore and just play the game). -

Americans drink coffee! We dumped all that fufu tea in Boston harbor.

If the thing I'm not happy with is an MMO being an MMO, then I'd say I'm the problem here, not the MMO.
However I don't think I have ever seen a definition of MMO that includes "forced teaming" so in the context of this thread that comment is pointless. -

1) the comic audience is, on average, older than it used to be, and the comics have to cater to more mature, sophisticated tastes
Can you imagine anyone older than 15 embracing an X-men movie w/ the characters wearing their costumes from the comics?!
*cry*

Quote:As I said above everything from the Collectors edition (except the Hero click) is also available in the Deluxe edition which can be had for under £10, probably under $10. That includes the VIP Badge.Originally Posted by Necrotech_Master
i mostly only want to get the coh collector edition for the badge that comes with it lol, but i cant justify spending $100 to get a badge
personally i think the badge from that (VIP/destined one) should be awarded to you if you have a VIP account (ie make it a tier 9 VIP paragon reward)
the other stuff in the collector edition (heroclix figures, ect) i dont want anyway -

I have the Twilight books on a prominent place in my bookshelf. That way when girls come over and ask if I've read them I can tell them how bad they sucked. For some reason arguing with girls over how bad Twilight sucks has never failed me. It's become my go to move.

A friend made me watch it with her. That makes it ok by the Bro Code.
Not going to tell you what my lady has made me watch, although I put my foot down when she suggested Twilight. -
Quote:The 3 or 4 minutes is a LIE!Originally Posted by SwellGuy
One more dummy question.
Does queuing up on the LFG for any incarnate trial actually work? I ask because it said average of 3 minutes and I never popped to one in over 20 minutes but the Halloween one was very accurate on the wait time.
Or do people team up somewhere first and then queue up for it?
The quick way is to go to Pocket D and join a league there. Only use the LFG stuff for Incarnate Trials if you have something else to do for the next 40 minutes thats not going to require you enter a closed instance. -

Beastly was a horrible, horrible movie. "I have cool tattoos and a slightly disfigured face. I'm hideous now."
And now I've quoted you, it would be pointless to delete your post?

City of Heroes Deluxe Version on Amazon
Ideal for starting a new account. If you want to upgrade your account you have to go through Customer Support because (as I said above) the web site upgrade no longer works for these items. Customer Support with want the serial code for your original account and a scan of the serial code from the box. -
Quote:That's what I was expecting this thread to be aboutOriginally Posted by Captain_Photon
To address the original question: The ambush nerd is clearly whichever mission designer came up with the second mission in Who Will Die? Episode 1. I mean, what the hell.
Coincidentally (given some of the discussion above) its the one area of the game I have found that legitimately justifies triple stacking Lucks. At least, that's how I complete that section

Quote:The only reason the collectors edition is that expensive is because of the "real world stuff" that comes with it i.e. the hero click figure.Originally Posted by Forbin_Project
If you can get it that cheaply on Ebay then buy it. The cheapest I've seen the collector's edition sell for is $99 bucks.
You can buy the City of Heroes Deluxe (EU version) for under Ten English Pounds (I paid less than £6) and the nice people in Customer Support will apply the code to your account (since the web upgrade no longer works for these). The Deluxe version has everything the collectors edition has except the Statesman Hero Click, I believe.
PS: My account is a NA account, in case you are wondering.
PPS: Yes, I bought it solely so my Ice Controller could Power Slide

Unusually for Hollywood in recent years it seems to be doing the same with males actors. Or "young" male actors anyway. When I saw trailers for Beastly I thought, "I've have seen deliberately uglier tat and piercing combos on my walk to work!"

Quote:My knowledge of other mmos is almost entirely second hand but I believe City of Heroes creates more private mission instances that most other games. And if the instance (or dungeon) is "open" then the question of there being a gate on team size doesn't come in to it.Originally Posted by Agent White
Does any other MMO let you do team content by yourself? like can you start a WoW raid solo? I'm really new to MMOs so I'm legitimately curious, what games let you start team intended content by yourself, suicidal or not?
I could be wrong though as I am a one MMO kind of guy

BBC News Article about Steam Hacking
My experience with Steam has left me with a great dislike for the service. Now excuse me while I go change my account passwords. -
Quote:Actually that list has me worried. More than one in that list has phoned home their last film performanceOriginally Posted by The_Larker
I am digging the list of the dwarves, although I wish they would have showed them in the clip. Ian McShane, Eddie Izzard, Bob Hoskins, Toby Jones, Eddie Marsan, Steven Graham and Nick Frost c'mon this a list of win.

That trailer worked in that I am now interested in this film rather than writing it off completely.
