George Clooney in space. Its funny that I had to type "spoilers" as I don't believe there can be spoilers for this film. Essentially, Clooney is a shrink of some sort, I think(?), who gets sent to an outpost in space to help deal with some problems the crew is having. Once there, his wife...

I should add that conspiracy people think the opening developer's "movies" show that the developers knew they failed in making the game. If you search the web, you can find more on this subject. I happened across it while researching a puzzle in the game, because I couldn't believe the re...

The big selling point of this game is that your actions determine the storyline and how the world reacts to you. That's not really true. Fable casts you as a kid who gets to watch his family die, and then grows up to be a hero. In the developer's eyes a hero is good or bad. The visuals are mediocre...

Wasn't this film a major bomb at the box office? I thought critics destroyed it and it lasted about a week?

The Iraq War is like totally illegal because...uh, cause Bush is like Hitler. And, uh, because France and Germany said we shouldn't do it. Every time the U.S. invades a country we take it over and its worse than before we got there, like for sure. Make love, not war. Oh, and it was all about oil. E...

Ticker has Tom Sizemore, Steven Seagal, Dennis Hopper, Jamie Presley, a guy from Hill Street Blues, and a B list actor that usually plays the bad guy.

Just a horrible film.

I'm watching some bad movie on USA called Ticker. Dennis Hopper just called in a bomb threat saying, "Its 4 o'clock now. At 5, yada, yada, yada."

Anyway, he goes into a bar and right behind where he's sitting is a clock that says 3 p.m.

Stupid.

My point is that I played the game through and wrote a review covering all the aspects I could of the game. You came in after barely playing it and said, "it sucks". I don't care if you thought it sucked or if you thought it was the second coming, but back your statement up. Its a review,...

Don't agree, System Shock II was scarier imo. You are welcome to your opinion, and until Doom 3, I thought System Shock 2 was the scariest FPS ever. I would still HIGHLY recommend anyone who likes scary games and FPSs go pick up a copy and play it. Its still better than most FPS games made today. I...

I really liked the songs in Chicago. They fit the film. Not to mention how smartly they were filmed. The press conference and the courtroom come to mind immediately. I've seen lots of other musicals, including Disney films, where the songs didn't fit. NOBODY wanted some hot Queen Latifah lovin'? Th...

The scariest first person shooter of all time. Most of you know what Doom is and Doom 3 is a retelling of the original Doom. However, this is not Doom. Doom 3 is more like System Shock 2 than Doom. This is not your father's Doom. If you're looking for mindless waves of monsters ala Doom, then go bu...

I think your expectations were too high.

I thought it would suck, but was entertained since my expectations were soo low.

Greek wedding did just plain suck, though.

Ok, debate the film here.

The movie sucked ass.

I'm curious to see how this movie gets defended since the writing is so bad. I'm expecting a lot of "tribute" horseshit, like the asstacular Cabin Fever got.

Let me add that this is one of those films that people are going to praise because they think it makes them look smart and artsy. In other words, they'll hear critics praise it so they'll think they should. (The above is a generalization, not intended to hurt anyone's feelings. Its meant to imply t...
