Dark Souls worth playing?

Absolutely. It's got a brutal learning curve in the sense that it doesn't hold your hand at all but it's incredibly fun. The second one is even better.

Counterpoint: I found Dark Souls to be nothing but frustrating and a pain in the rear end, and not fun at all. If you don't have dozens of hours of your life to dedicate to a single game, don't go near it.

Nah I kid, I kid, I understand that not everyone likes Dark Souls, to each to their own. I find it to be kind of humbling, actually. :shrug:

Contentious media is the best media. If you wanna play a game better something like Dark Souls that you'll either think is the second-coming of games or worse than Hitler rather than another bland adventure game or shooter you'll forget about as soon as you beat it. Assuming it can even keep your interest long enough to beat it in the first place.

"wich the worst part was what troll face did to sonic's corpse after words wich was rape it. at that point i looked away"



i think Dark Souls is brilliant and totally engrossing. It's hard but I never feel like it's unfair or broken or anything. The combat is elaborate and fun. Really though I think the story might be my favourite thing about it in that it's told through architecture and item descriptions, so it's a story that really can only be told through interaction.

Anyway I'm done those posters are all neat.

I've been quietly rooting for Demon's Souls since it was announced and even I was amazed at how singular Dark Souls is. One of the few games that will endure regardless of when it came out, like Tony Hawk 2.

This is by far the best indicator of its quality, by the way.

The sight Mitchum riding his horse like the spectre of Death itself is perfect. Totally captures the absolute terror of the scene it's pulled from. I get chills just remembering seeing it for the first time.

EDIT: You can even hear the bastard's singing. I need to watch that movie again.

And we're back on topic!



I love the Miss Univers Pageant. It's not as good as Miss Worl, of course...



ALSO a "Schoolgirl Report" flick. (and almost non-worksafe, if the photo wasn't over-exposed)

I've actually seen this one. It's actually just another one of those Psycho rip-offs that was strangely contemporaneous with The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and has nothing to do with schoolgirls at all. It has some half-way decent cinematography and acting, and there's one of those first act switcheroo's where the girl who you think will be the protagonist gets bumped off and the rest is from the perspective of one of the previous captives she meets. But, you know, I could never stomach the roughie softcore features.

I just happened on this poster since seeing it the first time when the movie came out. Somehow it captures Gael García Bernal at the worst possible angle, turning a panty-wetting Latin heart-throb into a hydrocephalic, receding hairline, Gonzo-nosed weirdo. Kate Hudson should be less excited, since she has to take Lil Timmy the progeria case back to the cancer ward, then drop off his wig at the Terminal Wigs wigshop. Hold on to love indeed, it's only got 3 months to live.

Actually, I'd totally watch a Cazale biopic starring Gael Garcia Bernal. Don't know if I'd be down with Kate Hudson as Meryl Streep though.

quote:

The film's only interesting sequence, which would be controversial if this generic porn was rediscovered by the legions of latter-day fans who have recently lionized the heavyweights like Wishman, Sarno and Millard, involves an underage boy. A paperboy arrives who is so androgynous looking at first I thought it was a papergirl. He is "initiated" against his will by one of the women in a haphazardly edited scene, but his little penis won't respond -she gets angry at him and throws him out.

This distasteful footage can only have been included (I infer) as a sop to the pederast segment of the porn audience. For the uninitiated, back in the day straight porn theaters attracted quite a few on-the-make homosexuals, who would attend hetero cinemas as good hunting grounds to find single men -the intuitive notion that they would go to GAY cinemas misses the point: there were a hundred times more regular porn houses extant. I even witnessed this once in London at a flea pit where I attended in the '70s to see a rarely shown film (the barely shown Jack Palance vehicle WELCOME TO BLOOD CITY), and was astounded to see a non-stop changing of seats by the majority of the solo male crowd -they were all trying to pick each other up. Ah, the travails of a film fanatic like me back in the day.
