Event Horizon - pants then and pants now. May well have turned it off halfway through...

Definitely worth a watch with a few beers, for Sam Neill's absolutely hilarious hammy performance alone.
"I am home"

Luigi's Mansion 2 is all sorts of great.

Still haven't picked this up yet...I really have to remedy that.

I'm with Mabs Block- who you fighting with?

[Judge Dredd: Mega City Two]

Not picking up Judge Dredd: Mega City Two gents?
For shame!

[Simon Bisley]

Far too early for a DICE 2014 thread, BUT I did hear some rumours flying around that Simon Bisley and Clint Langley will be attending this year...

Was a PS3 player too Greg, didn't think it was possible to be honest.

[2000AD]

And they all agreed that 2000AD was the bestest comic there ever was, and lived happily ever after.

Good to hear Gavin.
Did you go out drinking with the Big Bang, er, gang afterwards?

Is that possible on PS3 / X-Box 360 Krakajac, or only PC?
I'm not going back to try- just curious!

Seems to be a touchy subject here my geek brothers & sisters- lest we forget, it's us vs THEM!

Seriously though, I have no problem with superhero comics.
I've read a lot of them over the past 32 years, ranging in quality from sublime to abysmal.

My point is thus; I like good comics by talented creators.
If they happen to be of the superhero variety, then so what?

My current pull list is quite eclectic- apart from our one shared love, I'm into sci-fi, horror, fantasy and yeah- superheroes.
A case in point; 'Superior Spider-Man'. I hadn't read Spidey regularly since my early / mid teens, but this take on the character (Dr. Octopus inside Peter's body) was fun, novel and very well executed.
It was an enjoyable 1+ year of superheroic fun, due to end when the status quo is re-established (just in time for the new movie of course), and at which point I'll jump off again.

I'd never limit myself with preconceptions regarding any comic genre; the right formula of writer / artist / concept will always attract my readership.

Only one for me tomorrow:
Judge Dredd: City of Courts 2 (Wolk & Farinas are crafting a unique take on a Dredd here- but in a good way).

Yeah so far all the people I directly know who've done it just got naked or semi naked.

Nuthin really wrong with a bit of harmless fun, it's the dopes jumping into slurry tanks you've got to wonder about...

The idiocy is in the 'special' things they do during the filming. Such as jumping in a river.

That's the moronic bit.

[ProudFluff]

PS my real name mixed with the fact I'm a huffy S***, these collided in the Pub one night and a workmate named me...

And yet you consistently come across as a mild mannered & good humored gentleman.
I re-name thee; ProudFluff.

What's a neck nomination?!?

Something utterly moronic.
