Science Fiction homage?

We all know what 2001: A Space Odyssey did for the science fiction drama and the overall sociological attitude towards space exploration in general. Upon watching it for the first time a few years ago, I could not put my finger on it, but the little space pods reminded me of something. It burned my ...

Personally I find the new atom-smasher/particle accelerator to be a hopeful experiment. Who knows? Maybe it will finally help place the last few pices of the nuclear fusion puzzle.

I gave up on that franchise after Gold and Silver came about. All I want is the original 151. If they make an online Wii version of Stadium and can have leagues for us old schoolers, I'll be all over it. It's Super Effective!

:( Yes yes. I've seen a number of his performances on tv. He truly had a remarkable talent that pushed the boundaries of convention. He was truly advant guarde, and he sort of paved the way for all the other vulgar-speaking acts.

How about Topp's Zaku and Arth and Dell's Zaku IIs from 08th MS Team ? They're custom colored, though they may not be any different from any other B-model Zaku Is and J-model Zaku IIs, respectively. Also, since suits from Rise From the Ashes are being included, I say Gerhart Schmeisser's MS-05S Comm...

Hardware and shovelware

With a bigger and bigger mass of non-gamers buying Nintendo Wii's and DS's, we are finding more and more pieces of shovelware. Games like Nintendogs and Crazy Pig are just big expensive nano-pets on steroids. And Jenga for a game console? Rig Racer? Marketing crap in the form of game software and se...

Ever since the dawn of civilizatized humanity, society has always looked for something to place the blame for what is not believed to blend in to the mainstream. In Roman times, it was Catholocism. And in that aspect of sociology, nothing has evolved. In the 50s, it was beatniks and rock n' roll. In...

I do wonder about Minority Report being on that list. I can see why the article lists it there but seriously, I think the writer is stretching just a bit to include that flick on the list.

Gibson has been being kind of "erratic" in business practices as of late. They've scared away all of the local music stores in my home town and they no longer carry Gibsons, and haven't for about five years now. I'm thinking there are some pretty dumb people in board of directors now, and ...
