That's all I heard.

Something something something DARK SIDE! Something something something TOTAL ANNIHILATION!

Just seen predators, despite evryone saying it was going to be awful I found it was quite enjoyable. Nice to see humans are capable of killing predators The convict may have not managed to kill any but jumping on a predators back and trying to stab it death takes some balls.

The convict's fatality was also pretty sweet.

I would agree with you, a lot of people thought it was going to be crap but I ended up liking it a lot!

Great Scott! Somebody call the Waaambulance!

Seriously though, go outside.

If you had read the AvP comics (of which I think I have read a grand total of 1#) then it would make perfect sense. As it is, the idea of incorporating two clans was pretty interesting. BUT, the highlight of the movie is still "Sex In a Bottle Samurai/Predator Fight".

Yeah......Blech, need to make non-gaming friends...It's soooo hard.

@ EF - and thats the entire point why he wins! He doesn't even kill anything! He's amongst guys with miniguns, sniper rifles (with what looked like a TV remote stuck on the top...) and a funky grenade launcher gun thing. He has a shiv dammit! and he used it to its full affect, by mildly annoying a predator, and blunting it on the dogs neck! Thus, he is just so much cooler.

Did anybody notice the Alien referrence?

I saw that too.
But really, the convict was a bit of a try hard. Yakuza-Smurai-san or whatever was cool by his own merit.

Spoiler:

The dead guy with all the traps around him, he had one inside him. That's the only reason I can figure how the ribs were pushed out like that.

I thought it was a shot from their shoulder cannons? Makes little sense to bring a human all the way to a remote planet just to incubate him.
I remember there was a reference in Predator 2 though, where they had an Alien shaped skull in the trophy room.

He wouldn't have been able to set all of those traps, and the Predator would have tripped them if he'd come close enough to shoot him. Anyway, the edges of the wound were not scorched. (I know, I know, too much CSI... )

They weren't? I thought the look scorched enough. Or maybe that was rot. Either way, a predator can get close enough, they jump through the trees remember?

I encourage everyone reading this to put aside an hour and a half to watching The Toxic Avenger:

http://www.hulu.com/the-toxic-avenger

Just be warned/enticed, there is gratuitous nudity and violence.

It's from the 80's. Probably one of the best "so bad it's good" films out there.

I saw Predators. And I must agree I liked it. The 1 on 1 with the Yakuza guy and the Predator was badass, as well as te convicts death. FETHING STAB THE FETHER IN THE BACK!

I also noticed the Merc/black ops guy stole Arnies. KILL ME KILL ME NOW!!!.


I'm however kind of sad, i'm leaving beautiful kamloops for GRIMDARK PG tommrow.

I tried my first 40k RPG on Dakka today, I absolutely fething love it.

Well, I took your advice, and I went into downtown DC and "people-watched" for like a half hour, then proceeded to ride the subway for another few hours

Better than nothing, and it only costs 3 bucks.

Have you guys seen Barney miller? It's this hilarious show from the 1970's. It takes place in a New York City precinct house....Trust me, it's fething hilarious.. watch the episode called "Sniper". It's on hulu. here's a link.

http://www.hulu.com/watch/47938/barney-miller-sniper#s-p2-so-i0

Fisherman's friends... yum...

Despicable me is really funny, but the ending makes you want to barf. Stay after the credits start. 7/10.

My family is driving me insane.

My mom never stops bitching, and she makes a mess wherever she goes, and seems unable to speak in anything below a shout.
My dad is the same way, and more then likely bi polar.
My brother has a chemical imbalance and doesn't take medicine for it, and also a complete dick who maeks me life
fething miserable, as well as a manipulative prick.

Only a few more years, then I'm free.

Also, Texas is very nice. Surprisngly, PA is hotter then here.
Gonna go hiking soon with my other brother, and go shooting on tuesday.

Is the name Skarr Aesirhammer cool?

Barney Miller?

70s TV was way better than the crap they pass off now. I mean, the Muppet Show was awesome.

Does this look infected to you?

Well, I finally started writing some stuff for my RPG, and have even been inspired to write a short story/possible novel
if it keeps flowing like it is.

Also, Book of Eli=Awesome.

Might be seeing either Predators or Toy Story 3 with my bros and my brother in law.
Gonna visit Fort Bliss, Border Patrol Museum and the War Eagles Museum sometime this week too.
Then I get to go back home and start summer school. .

I can't even pronounce it, nevermind complimenting it.

Join the Marines. Get your GED, and you can be in bootcamp by the time your 17 1/2.
C'mon son, serve your country. Grab your manhood and lets go. The world is yours

That sounded fantastic. If it wasn't for the "Grab your manhood" line, I would have taken you for a professional recruiter.

Emperors Faithful wrote:That sounded fantastic. If it wasn't for the "Grab your manhood" line, I would have taken you for a professional recruiter.

Heh, you never met my recruiter.
Kept buying me beer even after I'd gone through boot. Whataguy. Admittedly I was his easiest recruitment.
"Hey kid, what are you doing after you graduate?"
"I dunno, probably read Spider-man comics, play with my pud, do the 10-year plan at CC."
"Wanna shoot some guns and blow stuff up?
"'kay"
"Sign here"
"'kay"
Couple months later.....
"fffffffffffffffffffffffffff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Pfff. Marines= Cannon Fodder.

If I do join the service, which my dad is pushing me to do, I'll prolly do Army Engineers (not sapper/demo)
or Navy SeeBee (or however it's spelt.). Make things, not blow them up. Also, blow stuff up to rebuild it.

Marines have combat engineers.
Seabees are legit, you'll actually learn applicable post-service skills. Not a lot of companys are looking for Forward Observers, so I find myself finishing my Bachelor's.
But really, you'll look SO CUTE in that navy crackerjack uniform!

And there is the problem.

Also, I think that edit might violate don't ask, don't tell.
Which I'm hoping is gone by the time I get to the service. (Which i may or may not do, btw.)

@Ef

Skarr as in scar as in a old wound.

Aesir= Eh? Sir. Just say that

And well I'd be mildly disapointed if you couldn't say hammer.

It's gonna be the name of my lord of chaos.

@GES - Air Force. Then you can find out if the Star Gate is real or not and let us know.

@DV: Should have gone with the Spiderman Comics.
(What is the 10-year CC plan? A Uni plan?)

Do you think it will leave a... "Scar Eh, Sir Hammer?"

Sounds like a conversation on battle wounds with a lord who has inherited a funny family name.
