  1. That was wonderful! Looking forward to the new series, if only to see what Moffat will bring to it.
  2. I shall learn how clocks work and change my beard styling.
  3. I was really looking forward to the announcement of Wolverine on Ice: The Musical. Then everyone had to be all sensible and point out all the reasons why the takeover probably wouldn't affect Marvel in any big way
  4. It is a really good game and it's well worth playing, but if you can handle waiting until a price drop, do so
  5. I'm not very good with scary films - The Orphanage keeps getting mentioned, but I found it more mysterious than scary. Rec is a good choice though. Eden Lake hasn't been mentioned yet? I found it exceptionally disturbing, rather than outright scary, but it did the job.
  6. Just saw it. It made me feel all tingly inside.
  7. I'm trying to read "Fateful Choices" by Ian Kershaw, who I love because of his Hitler biographies, but I just can't get into this one. In the meantime, I'm on book 3, part one of "A Song of Ice and Fire," which was rather randomly lent to me by an off-license worker. I am now addicted to the series.
  8. I got Alliance by Jonathan Fenby, which is all about Churchill, Stalin and Roosevelt in all their merry meetings together. Bar Antony Beevor's stuff, it's so far been one of the few non-fiction books that has genuinely gripped me. Other than that, I have the entire Calvin and Hobbes collection being sent to me this next week. Joy!
  9. I loved the cartoon and its style, and I don't mind CGI in films (Pixar, dammit), but I don't really care for this. The cartoons didn't really seem to be taking themselves too seriously, which I always thought was the best fun of Star Wars. This does, however.
  10. I saw this the other day. First time I've ever laughed at Garfield
  11. True, still had the presence of mind to pick up the camera and continue filming though. Yeah, I was a bit surprised with that scene. Really didn't expect to see the monster in such detail beyond the out-of-focus shots we got for the rest of the film.
  12. I loved it. Probably more than I expected, and particularly due to the fact that the film never really explained anything, because why the devil should any of the characters have that sort of information? Suffered a tiny bit from stupid-character syndrome, which seems to bug me more nowadays than it used to, particularly: I almost laughed at that' date=' wondering how it managed to sneak up on them. Star Trek trailer made me squee a bit as well :O
  13. My favourite game of 2006, got a bit weird towards the end, but a definite recommendation to anyone. Portal for 2007, I would have paid the full 30 just for it alone. The Half-Life episodes and TF2 was just the icing on the cake, lie or not
  14. That's just a fictional story about a massive zombie war, right? I may have to get it
  15. Just got that today, looking forward to it. Just finishing Stephen Ambrose' D-Day, which is far too focused on the American landings. He's still very complimentary to the Brits, but not enough to consider this as a good book for an overall view of the landings, and I think just one chapter is devoted to the Canadian beach! Currently reading Max Brooks The Zombie Survival Guide. Using it as reference material, and it turns out it's a fantastic read
  16. The band name was: Salman bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa Album: List of Street Fighter II V episodes ..... I didn't dare go farther....
  17. I think it was released in 2006, but I only saw it this year and love it muchly. One of my favourite films now
  18. Quoted for truth. First FM game I've ever bought on release, normally I wait a year or so. Enjoying it, though I'm still confused by all the buttons being on the top of the screen. Other than that, it's a FM game, so I'm addicted.
  19. Ooh, I'll remember that! Reading Brian Greene's Elegant Universe, which is a fantastic book about string theory for folk who have no idea about physics/mathematics but find such things interesting. Which means I love it, but am damned if I have to explain it to anybody
  20. There's the Build Centre down by the beach where I used to get my boiler suits, but I don't remember if they do white ones. Location
  21. Deric Longden's Paws in the Proceedings, which was about as lovely as I expected. All out of books now, though. Which is a bit of a bugger.
  22. Portal is fantastic, and I felt ever-so-guilty about the automated gun turrets. Never gave a crap about the Companion Cube after meeting them Working my way through the Half-Life Episodes, which are fantastic regardless. Team Fortress is grand as well. If ever there was a 'well worth the money' game, this is it.
  23. Was all set to go into town to get the new FM, didn't bloody realise this came out as well. Shall have to get it as well, if only for Portal. And everything else that comes with it.
  24. We got a box in to the shop I work at, which was surprisingly fantastic. I'm not entirely convinced the customers will be able to buy any before the staff have munched their way through.
  25. There isn't, and I haven't heard of any plans for one yet. You may be able to find some good user-mods to download that change the game to a Clone-War setting. Thanks for reminding me of this game though, I never really gave it a chance, so have dragged it back into the light.
