The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Let's just get this out of the way now and save ourselves some time:
*takes very deep breath*
Will the movie be a uPlay exclusive?
If I see the movie in different cinemas will it have different cinema-exclusive scenes?
Will I need to pre-order tickets in order to see the ending?
Will the 3D be glitchy until they release a patch?
Will they keep adding new scenes during the first 6 months of release?
Will new movies keep coming out every year?
This looks pretty impressive overall. The only thing I didn't love was the robotic arm thing attached to his waist, not really sure what that is all about.

The hidden blades? They're the main assassination tool in the game. Basically a leather strap around the wrist that holds a retractable, spring loaded knife which extends quickly when the hand is flexed backwards on the wrist, palm out.

Not what he was on about mate. There's like a big servo arm thing attached to his waist in a couple of those shots.

Ah, I thought he said wrist.
I thought the harness was pretty self explanatory - it's the animus. Rather than lying flat with a VR headset, he's suspended in the air and they do something else to make him think he's in his past. That way every action he does is mimicked in real time as he actually performs them. This is shown when he leaps the gap and lands, and it cuts to him being on the ground in that harness in that position. I guess there will be shots of him running, jumping and fighting while suspended in the harness as his body plays out what he's doing in his head - sort of like what your body does if you dream outside of REM atonia while sleeping.
Makes it more believable to accept the bleedover effect as he picks up Assassin abilities outside of the Animus. It's muscle memory.

I'm done.
That is both sad and funny at the same time.

It is a remix of Kanye West's I Am A God so I doubt that it will be part of the actual film.

Is that....it can't be....wait no it is....it's Kayne!
But seriously idk about this I don't think it looks that great, all the parkor action will be cool but I find these types of movies don't do so well....the video game was great the movie I'm unsure about.
Of course, the article does have one good bit.... Because this is a late-medieval/renaissance period movie, it wouldn't be complete without Jeremy Irons, who seems to do all of them these days
Honestly, I'm kind of surprised I haven't heard of this before. I mean, movie fans can be pretty fanatical. How much money could they have made giving an Indiana Jones hat to everyone who pre-purchased tickets? The hat probably costs a miniscule amount to make, and they could sell the damn thing for $20, and people would have paid for it. Might even have made Crystal Skull endurable. "Well the movie was mediocre, but at least I got my hat!"

"Your society's broken, so who should we blame? Should we blame the rich, powerful people who caused it? No, lets blame the people with no power and no money and those immigrants who don't even have the vote. Yea, it must be their fething fault." - Iain M Banks

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal

Yeah.... But at the same time, have you seen the top level of pre-purchase for this movie??? It includes a fething crossbow.... A FETHING CROSSBOW!! Who the feth thought that was a good idea, especially from the description given, I'm inclined to believe that it is a fully functioning weapon....
