    NOW READING

    Little Brother by Cory Doctrow. Link there for amazon as I think to say too much would be to give it away. Set in the near future where teenagers are thought to be terrorists in a post bombed san fran. Really good read, more so if you are anyway geek-ified.

    NOW WATCHING

    Home Movie Just saw this dirty little bitch of a horror.  :blink: Came form left field! Done in the style of Cloverfield where "found footage" was spliced together and frankly it was chilling. No supernatural, no demons (I think anyway) just good plain old terror! Ambiguous ending aside its...

    Mother of Mercy

    you like the Alchemist better than Mother of Mercy?!  :blink: This was an instant grabbed for me. Loved it from the first listen. Some of the others that I know to be better tunes are still worming their way in (point in case Starblind!) but MoM had me at hello.

    Final Frontier: Who is the MVP / Man Of The Match?

    Saw the thread title and immediately went "Pffft! Harris of course!!" But in the time it took me to open and reply I've decided its Smith. Reckon its oozing Smith aloofness and daretofuckwithmeitis (total word!)

    Official thread for Final Frontier discussion

    I still buy CD's and then rip them with CDEX. Makes rearranging just as easy and you get much better quality MP3s. I've never though of rearranging albums though except for "shuffle" but I'm going to try this suggested playlist. I have to admit it took me until now to really appreciate The Man...

    NOW WATCHING

    The Last Exorcism.  :huh: Utter shite. Not in the slightest bit scary or chilling. Way too much Blair Witch styled shaky cam and it seemed needless. The performance from the lead Patrick Fabian was really good and his character instantly likable but they took him nowhere. The story was slowly...

    Scott Pilgram. Surprisingly entertaining. Edgar Wright did a great job with shot manipulation considering he had so little to work with. (Seriously Cera...its called acting! Look it up!) Kudos for the cameo And the sound effects & use of music.

    Suggestions box?

    I guess this is the place... I dunno if its the board settings or the set up settings but having the "prev/next" on the bottom right of the thread ( as opposed to the bottom left like every other board!) is annoying as hell!! I keep thinking its "prev/next" page of same thread and instead its...

Clearly they are the albums people cant...

    Favorite band member?

    Pffft! That's ridiculous!  :huh: Everyone knows to inherit the super powers he'd have to bite you! Gotta be Steve. And I wanna talk to him *just* after he's woken up so I could tap into those nightmares!  :ninja:

    Mission Edition VS. Regular?

    I always buy the special edition (cd / dvd / bluyay) but I rarely watch the extras. Didn't like how the disk needed to be in a pc and not just an internet enabled player which was annoying. But frack it, it was only a few euros more! Main thing I don't like about the special edition is the...

    On repetitive choruses

    Its a tried and tested method of audience participation call and response. Maiden IMO have perfected it and should in no way apologize or have to explain it. Hell they don't even need lyrics for a call and response! the god dammed bass is enough! Thank you 'Arry!  :edmetal:
