Yeah, but even by epic fantasy standards it was dragging.
Key word being "was" though, because I'm since up to page 285, and by the Wheel, the plot's actually moving! Or, rather, the characters...
Goth chicks huh? Well, I suppose that explains why Bella chose Edward over Jacob then.:rolleyes:
Anyway, keeping it rolling, read more of The Great Hunt, my reaction having gone from "hey, this is...
Silly Quirel. If you drink coke of all things, it's inevitable the taste will catch up with you.:p
Luckily for us gentlemen of more discerning taste, The Thursday War is more like a lemon, lime...
I'll have to take your word for it, but if those are the issues from WoK, then ID isn't free of them either. To paraphrase in the same manner,
Stage 1: Nero's incursion, makes Starfleet more...
So, adding to the list, got round to seeing Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome. Giving it an "okay" rating. Some good moments (e.g. seeing Six's precursor form), some iffy moments (another...
I've seen plenty of non-comic fans pissed off by it as well though.
I'm kinda projecting, and as I haven't seen it, I can't really judge, but IMO, I feel Marvel missed an opportunity with its MCU....
So, continuing the thread, general thoughts/responses:
Defiance: Show I'd like to get into, but I'll likely have to wait until it comes out on DVD. Heard it has a rocky start but has gotten...
Trying to debate what is and isn't canon is like debating the existance of deities, or the lack of them. Some evidence is available, some isn't, and people are going to interpret that evidence...
Ah, derp. Meant to type "used."
Mixed thoughts about this. Basically they can be summed up as the following:
Pro: Big Boss/Naked Snake is an older man now, on the verge of being the antagonist in the original game (less than a...
You used my system? Cool.:)
Anyway, rest assured that come the airing of its last episode, I'll be making a judgement on season 3 of A Game of Thrones, it'll definately go in the "excellent" or...
Concerning Dead Space 3...well, haven't played it, but I know the ending(s), so if you aren't afraid of spoilers:
If you're looking to "finish the fight," you may be disapointed. The game itself...
No such luck with Titan. I'm holding out hope for a cinematic trailer of sorts at BlizzCon though. If the game needs a revamp that will see it released in 2016 at the earliest, but also allowed most...

And to compliment the reading/playing threads, here's a "watching" one - TV, films, etc. I've watched more than what's listed, but in the case of TV and cartoons, I rank them on a by-season basis...
Similar to the "What Are You Reading?" thread, making a category for games - video games, tabletop games, etc. Starting off in the same way, with games I've played this year.

Maybe someday, but the same people who recommended Neuromancer to be were the same who recommended Snow Crash. Heck, the only reason I read it was because it was kind of a form of 'writing group...
What floats my island is the Master Emerald actually.:p
Anyway, some E3 stuff is showing up, so rambling all pre-emtively like:
-Microsoft continues to be a dick with the Xbox One, dicking us...
More a response by subject than specific post:
Dan Brown: Of his work, I've only seen the film adaptation of Angels and Demons, which was...okay, at the end of the day. Concerning VoK's comments,...
Cockroaches? Surely you mean motobugs?;)
But anyway, fair enough. I guess when the lights go on, some of us find cockroaches, others find butterflies.
I've seen the image before at IGN. I'm...
No, I've read all the books, unless you mean all projected seven books (which I bet will be increased in no.), then no, course I haven't.
Anyway, I'm not disputing anything you say, but I can't...
Not sure what to make of that. If you're making the argument that "less is more," then maybe - certainly Samurai Jack uses minimilistic story and storytelling from what I understand (only seen one...
As per a suggestion from TheEconomist (see http://sclegacy.com/forums/showthread.php?15718-Game-of-Thrones-Rains-of-Castamere&p=189000#post189000), basically entered book territory. Lists of books...
I'll start a topic.
That's true, to an extent. Certainly I like how the show handled Roose Bolton (not so much Ramsay), how he's built up as an ally, perhaps a friend of Robb in season 2, has...
