A NEW OFF TOPIC APPROACHES! I'm sorry Blank, but I have to disagree with you there. The Lord of the Rings trilogy was absolute crud. The only things that <i>might</i> have made someone to watch it was the well-made CG stuff (classic motive), Legolas, trying to count how many times Smegle says "My Preciousssss" in any film and lots and lots of “what if?” scenes that would have done nothing more than kill the main story if they really happened in the actual book. The film didn't even consider taking the book seriously, and that's really sad, 'cause many of my generation have missed the true background settings LoTRs really withheld. The film is absolutely nothing compared to the book. Read it again if you have some doubts about which is better. (Btw, can you believe that there are some people who honestly think that book came <i>after</i> the film? URGH! Stupid party people... >.<) Now Pirates of the Caribbean. The second one did give me doubts, but with the first and third in the picture, I believe that this is the only true classic trilogy of my generation, appreciated by this so called 'easy-to-please' next gen. or not. And I appreciate oldies more than this next gen. crap that makes money out of the blue. Too bad that most directors want to ruin the brought back to life film rather than settle it back in our hearts. For example, I'd pay lots of money in order to see "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" in the cinema. Yeah, like that's going to happen. ... I'm quite scared to go see "The Mummy 3" now. WARNING! A NEW OFF TOPIC APPROACHES!

They lost me there. Mentally, they may have a hive mind, and I can dig that. But physically, how did they pull that off? I like my sci-fi grounded in reality, and that crossed a line.

Good points, though. Still, I'm hoping FFXIII will be better. I said I was shutting up, and I meant it. Good points, though. Still, I’m hoping FFXIII will be better.

It seems like lucas forgot (much like with star wars) that the indy movies were adult movies that kids happened to enjoy, i knew they were going to make it way to kid friendly this time.

I liked Fran's Ass. 2) Gambits made the world go 'round. It was a lot more fun to play than even my cherished FF6 because I didn't have to wait for stupid loading screens or the stupid battle-win cinematics. It was continuous, largely uninterrupted gameplay. 3) Eh. It was largely assumed characters would take different directions along the grid, which makes sense in theory. Personally, I didn't care that much about this because it made picking who to use simpler and no one was left out. 4) I agree, but I still enjoyed the game. Oh, and if reverse+decoy is too simple for you, you're in the unique position that you can choose to not do that. I didn't use it at all until Omega. <i>And I still lost that one!</i> 1) I don’t get it. I liked Fran’s Ass.

Following that, one could argue the being was still at least partially in control of the attractive force in a sort of telekinetic way. The variation of the magnetic effect was a huge thorn in my side until it was revealed that the alien was still alive. In theory, the crystal skull was part of a sentient being.
