Thirteen, and with wisdom beyond my years! ;-)

 

Whaaa... I can't believe you are thirteen Zig. Way to ruin the Bell curve ;) I knew you were wise beyond your years but I thought you were sixteen or so! I guess I shouldn't have been promoting Pulp Fiction in your favourite movies thread :P

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, CHERISH IT!

Another recommendation for Fallout 3.

I bought the collector's edition of Bioshock with the Big Daddy paperweight. Then when I found out there was a matching 2K Little Sister I was forced to pay an outrageous sum on eBay to get that too.

She is hiding an EVE hypo behind her back, but the thing I like most about this is the piece of tiled floor she is standing on.

I've hardly even played the game... I loved the demo but the game seemed to go straight on the backburner and never came off.

*goes to reinstall Bioshock*

HI-Res Poster Art
Time

RU.08 I got this 1920x1080 Star Wars wallpaper from themoviedb.org (it is now gone). It seems to be either from a better scan of the posterbook or the same scan with less alteration/smoothing.

It's a shame the posters there seem to max out around 1500px as I'm sure many of them exist at a higher quality. The only "A" poster I have seen with the same colouring and detail as what msycamore posted was a photo of a six sheet but it was so badly folded it was useless for a digital copy.

How can you not love WALL·E?!!

Ignore whatever stupid social commentary you are being fed and enjoy the sweetest tale of romance to ever grace cinema. A love story without those horrible, awkward word things. And don't tell me those of you who are collectors don't identify with WALL·E's obsessive-compulsive arrangement of all his favourite bits and pieces. I think one of the problems is the lack of dialogue leads some people to switch off and think about other things rather than involving themselves more in WALL·E's story.

I think these films are much more enjoyable if you are more forgiving going in. Don't expect a masterpiece that will cater to your adult tastes or sensibilities; watch them with the eyes of your eight year old self and you will rarely be disappointed. The only animated movie I didn't really enjoy was Shrek 3 (haven't seen 4). And I refuse to watch Open Season because even my eight year old self hates Martin Lawrence.
