I don't remember any nudity in The Thing. But it was a while ago I saw it. How much nudity, and what kind?

film? The nudity in it. Well, partial nudity. There were maybe 3 topless scenes, including one where you get a very good look at the girl's boobs. I can't think of any other John Carpenter film where there's ANY nudity, partial or full, at all. Although, Prince of Darkness does have quite a few stupid sex jokes. Very good soundtrack to Halloween.

Didn't "this wouldn't have happened in the horsing business" originate here?

Oh man. That was hilarious. That was late 2014 or late 2015. But it never turned into a meme, because I've only seen it mentioned a few times since then.

I suppose CEnco de Mayo is sort of a meme.

I refuse to believe that. I've been here since almost the beginning, i.e. since 2002, and although I remember people sometimes saying that in the early days, I'm pretty sure it wasn't CE that came up with it.

There was this woman, speaking to several other people. I can't tell how old she was. Could've been anywhere between 25 - 40. Anyway. I vaguely heard her say that she had "big boobs", then made reference to having at least one child. Oh, she had maybe C-cups. Anyway, she then kinda grabs her boobs for no reason, and pushes them up. It was slightly hot, but nothing special. But girls didn't used to touch themselves like that in public.

The weather was hot. A while before, I saw some large fish in a river.

I'd say Australia. The UK and Australia had roughly the same culture (sort of), have a monarch, the same monarch, and the way the two countries speak it quite similar, saying things like "mate" and some of the same swear words.

What do you think of this?

That's not for ages. Are you joking? After the group stages, don't things speed up a lot? I assume it's just 4 quarter-finals, 2 semi-finals, a 1 final (obviously 1 final). Maybe a special match, to decide who comes 3rd and 4th.

I've followed it very little. I know the group stages have nearly finished now, so I can't imagine it'll go on for much longer. Also, who cares that Germany got knocked out? It's not the end of the world. I hear my own country, England, are doing well (which is surprising). Who do people think are going to win? France of Brazil, I would assume?

I remember seeing it for the first time a month or two ago, and I couldn't believe how bad it looked. Granted, I'm not the biggest fans of RPGs, but the graphics were terrible (not old-skool, or retro, but terrible), and it just seemed boring. I expect it'll sale well on its first day out, though, which is just sad.

Lol this DK dude is having a stroke ITT

Youre good, TC. Welcome aboard if you end up getting it. Smash usually has lots of single player fun; Smash 4 was a step down in this regard but hopefully thats rectified. If nothing else, its confirmed Ultimate starts you with 8 characters, so lots of unlocking and recruiting to fill the roster. Its a great series.

I like unlocking characters in fighting games. :D

Do you remember how all the characters were already unlocked in DOA4? That was weird. I enjoyed unlocking the characters in Soul Calibur 1, which was perhaps the best fighting game I've ever played, but most of the extra characters in that were clones, sadly. I don't really see the point in having many clones in a fighting game, and people often complain about them.

Is DK usually like this? I haven't spoken to him much on CE before.

Of course, talking to hardcore fans of a TV, film or video franchise is often dangerous. I mean...you know. Especially when a new game has just come out or something.

Lol @ "Far right - places like Iran, Saudi Arabia" Those are Islamist / Wahabbite places where they have sharia instead of constitutions and civil laws. That's not how you define a far-right regime.

Personally I'm firmly conservative, so I guess "right" (Trump, UKIP, Likud especially, etc).

Lol. You don't think Saudi Arabia is extremely conservative? Seriously?

And I never said Saudi Arabia is the only far-right country in the world. It was an example.

Saudi Arabia (and Iran to an extent) are WAY beyond "extremely conservative", they're totalitarian religious regimes. But this is still not what "far-right" designates, historically speaking. The implication of a far-right (or fascist, to an extent, although the two aren't necessarily synonyms) regime is, among other things, a strong element of militarisation of the nation. I wouldn't call extremist religious regimes "far right". Pinochet, Mussolini or Franco ruled "far right" regimes, if you want a better example. The leaning to the right right isn't necessarily simultaneous with the leaning towards religious extremism.

Those are some fair points. Although, by your logic with regards to a militaristic nation, America is far-right. Americans seem to live in awe of their armed forces, it's by far the best funding armed forces group in the world, a bunch of presidents served in the military, which is often part of the reason they got elected, to say nothing of invading various countries, such as Afghanistan, Iran, Cuba, Panama and the Dominican Republic...in the last one hundred years.

Besides, since I've barely played the series before, that's essentially 66 new characters (although of course I probably know who most of them are from other games).

Exactly. So don't give me that "only three new characters" bull when we don't even know what the final fucking number is.

What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you so upset? And the reason I thought that there were only 3 new characters was because YOU said said. Just calm the fuck down.

Only 3 new characters? That is kinda sad. Of course, there may be several new modes, and the gameplay might have been changed quite a lot.

SFII:HF had 12 playable characters, then SSFII had 18, which is about a 33% increase. This game only has about a 3% increase.

Three characters so far. Plus they're bringing back EVERYONE.

The game was just announced. Don't be like the fucking Smash boards that thinks that's all it is.

Whoa, steady on there. I thought that was it. I'm not hater (not exactly, anyway). Besides, since I've barely played the series before, that's essentially 66 new characters (although of course I probably know who most of them are from other games).

It's strange how I never got into this series. I sometimes think it's a Japanese / American thing, since most of my gaming friends over the years in the UK don't seem to play it much, if at all.

I'm pretty sure it's a sequel.

Except in the sense that all fighting games are updated ports, i.e. they just add in a few new characters, but it's basically the same otherwise.

All those different characters, the best graphics yet, and so on. I'm not sure, though. Knowing me, I would probably use it mostly for one-player, so I'm not sure if it's worth it.

it's funny. I've played maybe 15 minutes of the series in my life, and that was Melee, back years ago.

I'm left. I'm very liberal. I live in Britain, and sadly Britain is basically centre-right these days, and has been for a while. I do like moderate politics in some way, think Barack Obama to an extent (remember, he might be liberal by American standards, but I think he was basically moderate overall), because moderate politics bring people together, and don't alienate many people.

ubama, what did he achieve?

Obamacare. Although he didn't seem to bring people together, but given how polarised America is, that wasn't surprising. He also killed Bin Laden, I guess.

You have to remember, though, he had two terms of an opposition Congress, I think.

I wont deny how smart he is, and clearly he backs up his views with plenty of evidence, but I only agree with some of his views on America. He's so biased. He can only see bad things, and no (or very few) good things about the country. He doesn't even try and come across as unbiased and fair with various situations.

This is a big thing for me. Usually I just read fiction books.

I've read little bits of a body language book (although I was also looking at the pictures, lulz), little bits of fun facts book, and lots of a political / cultural / philosophy book. Perhaps non-fiction books are alright, after all.

Basically, it's an action puzzle game. It's viewed from a top-down perspective (sort of), and you have to collect diamonds, while avoiding boulders falling on your head. There are also enemies that can hurt or help you, and some other weird things. The puzzling should challenge ever people who are really good at that kind of stuff, but you'll also need to have some good reflexes and spatial awareness. It's so much fun to play. Of course, because it's a very old game, second generation, not everyone will like it. It's 2D, the graphics are simple, and it is very hard in places.

Here's some video footage to show you what it's like.

Seriously, in some ways, this was a great film, with HAL-9000, and the sense of mystery, and clearly the visual effects and set design were very advanced for the time, and still stand up well. But do we really need a roughly 2 and a half hour film, that is incredibly slow, and then doesn't really reveal anything much at the end?

Yeah. I got them mixed up because they're both by directors who have done lots of horror films.

Wes Craven is probably just as good as John Carpenter though. I watched Nightmare 1 - 6 when I was pretty young, and liked them all, and some of his other films are pretty good too.
