I think it's helpful to remember that he's a career movie reviewer who's a generation or two older than most gamers.

The universe is a cruel, uncaring void. The key to being happy isn't a search for meaning. It's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you'll be dead.

Also, I was at that site for another reason I don't remember lately, and was put off by the over use of lists. I mean, they work, but damn am I getting tired of them.

it's not that he's too old, it's that he's narrowminded. Freddy Got fingered is a masterpiece. for someone so opinionated about film and the industry, this movie was pretty awful.

on topic: playing a lot of Sorry lately. it's fun to mess around with the rules

It's always entertaining to me when people throw around that movie he helped make. Who cares? I mean, seriously. What difference does a 40 year old movie, whether good or bad, make when considering the movie reviews he's written since? Also, the wikipedia article you listed has this at the bottom:

Since its release in 1970, BVD has acquired a cult following and has even been included in various "best of" lists by movie critics. In 2000, Canadian magazine Take One included BVD in their "Best Films of the 1970s" critics poll.[11] In 2001, the Village Voice named the film #87 on its list of the 100 Greatest Films of the Century.

And about Freddy Got Fingered, it says:

Upon its original release, the film received overwhelmingly negative reviews, many considering it one of the worst comedy films of all time. Some reviewers gave the film zero stars. The Toronto Star created a one-time new rating just for Freddy Got Fingered, giving it "negative one star out of five stars." CNN's Paul Clinton called it "quite simply the worst movie ever released by a major studio in Hollywood history" and listed the running time as "86 awful minutes."[5]

Film critic Roger Ebert gave the film a rare zero-stars rating, listed it as one of his most hated films of all-time...

But really, it doesn't make any difference at all. There is no reason to hate Roger Ebert for his opinion, on films or video games. Like what you want to like, and shut the fuck up.

farting fart bus stop. Spacebar is the fart button, and the left arrow is the silent but deadly button. the object is to fart when cars pass in front of the bus stop so the person next to you doesn't notice.

I've been playing Legend of Legia recently. I just decided to give it a try since I hated it as a kid. It's still pretty dumb, and still kind of hard (which is the whole reason I quit playing when I was younger)

But it's alright, I guess.

O.M.G. I have been looking for a copy of that game FOREVER! I remember playing it when I was younger and never got to finish because my sister lost a disc. When you're done can I borrow it? Or buy it? Anything?! PLEASE!

So, I don't know, I bought Team Fortress 2 because shit is like 10 dollars now. (I know, I'm only about 5 years late) So...that...

I think I'm about ready to finally retire Black Ops, because it is evil. We'll see what happens when Modern Warfare 3 comes out. x_x

So far I consider it much improved, though I've only spent a few hours with it. I got distracted by minecraft this morning...

Plants vs. Zombies happened to be yesterday's free app from the Amazon Android shop, so I played that all afternoon yesterday...and finished it. It was fun, but I wish it had lasted longer.
