The integrity of this channel has been going to hell for me with the 'mid-season finales' of their more popular series like Battlestar Galactica and the two Stargate series (SG1 is done, but the last two seasons had 'mid-season' finales). And with the mid-season finales, we have to wait 9 months for the remaining season and then ususally another 3 or more months for the beginning of the season after that. Thank god this is the last season of BSG, because I don't think I'll ever watch another series that has this big of gap between new epsodes. I'm going to stop watching Stargate Atlantis as it is. They make us wait 9 months for more episodes and the episodes are badly written rehashed scripts of things that have already happen multiple times in the same series but in a different context!? f*ck that! I'm not giving this channel any more ratings for poorly scripted series. Also, the Sci Fi channel's b-movies used to be watchable, not always good, but a good time killer and somewhat amusing or interesting. But now they seem to be outputting a constant stream of crap movies just to fill their time slots. Instead of making so many crap movies, they should put more money into fewer, better movies and make them good, like improving the scripts and hiring better actors. I like Eureka and I'm going to watch the newest season and I've been looking forward to it because its actually pretty good in my opinion. I don't mind its timeslot on tuesday nights because it works out good to have something close to the middle of the week to watch. However, it is constantly hammered with ECW commercials because wrestling is on right after it. The commercials annoy the hell out of me. Do they really think that many wrestling fans are watching Eureka in anticipation of the wrestling show thats coming on after it!? Bullshit! Wrestling fans will watch that f*cking show regardless of what channel its on as long as it comes on at that particular time. So stop commercializing the shit out of it during an actual show that has nothing to do with the fanbase of the show that follows it! Its the same as if ECW was on the home and garden channel and having random commercials of hardcore wrestling and sweaty muscle guys airing during a show like Trading Spaces or Curb Appeal. Do they really think wrestling fans would watch Curb Appeal just because it precedes ECW!? Then why the f*ck throw commercials on before it? Do they really think they'll increase their fanbase by luring in Sci Fi fans or home improvement do-it-yourselfers? And I've said it before and I'll say it again, WTF is wrestling doing on the "SCI FI" channel anyway!? Once again it is the integrity of the channel going downhill.

I used to always be able to turn on the Discovery Channel whenever there was nothing else on TV and I was pretty much guaranteed to be able to watch something interesting and informative. But now, every time I turn on that channel, Deadliest Catch is on. Oh my F*cking god. Its one thing if its just occasionally on, but no. Its on all the time. Before I even turn it to that that channel, I already know it'll be deadliest catch. And if it isn't then its Ice Road Truckers. I used to watch Deadliest Catch, but now that it is on 50% of the time on the Discovery Channel I want absolutely nothing to do with the f*cking show. Stop paying these crab fishermen for this show and invest in some new programming! I still watch some of the other Discovery channels, like Discovery Science (quite a bit too, its still a decent channel), but still, the regular Discovery Channel should have something different. Even TLC is nothing but home improvement shows. If I wanted that I'd watch the DIY channel. The two channels that used to be the most interesting and informative are now nothing like they used to be. I now watch the two history channels for documentaries, because I can't stand watching the commercials for Deadliest Catch when the Discovery Channel even has something good on.

hmm, interesting. At first I was thinking maybe Kuma was literally jumping between multiple fights and maybe it disoriented him and caused him to get hit more. But even then, he is a shikubukai and if he fought like that, he still wouldn't get hit and he would still own mutherf*ckers. Also, none of the panels showed Kuma's hands, so we can't see if his devil fruit 'paws' are there or not. If they are not, then they have to be cyborg replicas, which would explain why they can't instant dodge. Since they don't have the DF power to transport anywhere, the Kuma's are huge targets and are probably too bulky to move fast or dodge their opponents. I bet Luffy will instant kill the Kuma they're fighting. Imagine Chopper and Ussop's faces when they see Luffy blast Kuma's head off. "Sugeee!" X'D

I bet its something with alot less machines and a much more manageable special effects budget.

Its a shame Bush won't be impeached. But at the same time, it'll probably go down in some history books that there were impeachment hearings. What pisses me off tho, is Bush has a crapload of things he should be impeached for, but congress is more or less brushing it all aside. But when Clinton was president, impeachment was heavily pursued because of a simple sex scandal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_of_Bill_Clinton They went so far just to impeach Clinton, but Bush literally gets away with murder and everyone shrugs it off.

Yep, I bought the ultimate shotgun uprade for the striker just so I could get the 100 shells. They could always offset the ability to buy ammo by having more enemies to compensate for the increased ammo supply. With the inventory space so f*cking small, purchasing ammo wisely could be another aspect of the game. Did you notice in the videos it looks like they strap the weapons on their backs instead of storing them in an attache case? Maybe that will help clear up alot of the inventory storage problems of having two or three guns taking up 3/4 of your case.

The guy should just do a special manga edition that covers the entire real world fight in a large triple issue or something. But I doubt that will happen. Of course once the series catches up to this point again, all these fights could be covered in just a couple episodes, just like the 2 month manga fight between ichigo and grimjaw was finished in just one and half episodes. Heres the thing, I really don't see where the manga is even going aside from the near future. Obviously Aizen is going to either get the king's key or make the king's key, get into upper soul society, call forth his super elite vasto lord hollows and fight against the super elite captain/guardians of the king. And of course, Ichigo will somehow defeat Ulquiorra, get a power boost to become a thousand times more powerful than any other captain, somehow make it into upper soul society, and either fight Aizen one on one or witness the king being killed and then he fights Aizen. Just like that the series could end right there when Ichigo kills Aizen, claims the thrown and declares himself God. So, seeing as Ichigo will finally reach the peak of all power, he'll have nowhere else to go, unless he declares war on Lower HM, aka True Hell. The guy thats writing this obviously needs to milk this property so he can retire someday, so I bet he'll drag out every fight he possibly can for the next 20 years. X'D

The Spectacular Spider-Man
Sledgstone replied to Sledgstone's topic in Anime / Animation / Manga / Comics
Ok, I've been watching this show off and on and its really grown on me. Its honestly pretty damn good. I like how the story has been progressing and all the villians. The Eddie Brock loosing his job at the science place with Dr. Connors, Peter betraying his trust by taking all those photos against his wishes, all the crap that went down with the symbiote and Eddie merging with the symbiote into Venom. That was a nice twist on everything and Venom looks good. I don't know which episodes are the most recent, but I hope it continues on to Carnage and everything else. -
Wasp Knife pumps killer freezing gas into unfortunate victims
Sledgstone replied to Sledgstone's topic in Random
If the initial burst explosion or freezing effect doesn't kill someone, the frozen parts inside would probably cause a complete shutdown of the circulatory system. Seeing as your brain can stay alive for 4 minutes without oxygen, could it be at all possible for someone to retain consciousness and partial body movement for those 4 minutes to exact revenge on however just stabbed them? -
Sora is a made up character in the anime. All the Sora stuff in the anime this entire time has been filler episodes that have nothing to do with the manga story. I haven't watched the last 8 episodes or so because its been pointless. lmao. J's warts were there as a side effect of training. Thats funny and its probably true. X'D

Naruto & Bleach filler
Sledgstone replied to Ladywriter's topic in Anime / Animation / Manga / Comics
At least its coming to an end. Thanks for the heads up. -
*still hasn't watched this movie* That link reminds me of when star wars episode 3 came out and different sites said it had so many political overtures in it. I hate it when series or shows are made specifically to express a sub meaning about current world activities or politics. *cough season 3 battlestar galactica*

Wasp Knife pumps killer freezing gas into unfortunate victims
Sledgstone replied to Sledgstone's topic in Random
Damn. it looks like he either had to activate the compressed air or it was on a delay. Either way it was enough time for a grizzly to bite/snap your neck before it could feel the blast. And holy shit, if you stabbed someone in the neck with that thing it would decapitate them. Hell no! *runs* -
Naruto & Bleach filler
Sledgstone replied to Ladywriter's topic in Anime / Animation / Manga / Comics
I hope its over. The new captain filler was decent, then all of a sudden they were in school again with a little girl and her two guys. I haven't seen an episode since. -
Live action Cowboy Bebop?
Sledgstone replied to CabbitGirl's topic in Anime / Animation / Manga / Comics
cowboy bebop movie. I wonder who could actually play Faye and fill out her outfit. ha. Most likely they'll change everyone's outfits to black leather like they did in the x-men movies. Ghost in the Shell movie update: http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/04/15/dreamworks-to-make-live-action-ghost-in-the-shell-movie-in-3d/ Live action 3D? BTW, on the subject of anime live action movies, I think I remember reading the Battle Angel Alita movie was canceled. -

No, smokey knows I could never afford $400 for a weapon... he'll get me someday... -
Instead of Kakashi holding a ball of chakra and explaining things, now a frog is doing the same thing. I like how they explained why Jiyra changed appearance in his hermit mode, but at the same time, why would becoming one with nature chakra turn you into a toad? why just a toad, couldn't he turn into a gecko or a deer instead? Or maybe its because he has to train with toad oil to start the process and they didn't emphasize that? Oh well, at least that toad guy has an excuse to beat him in the head whenever he wants... but what if naruto starts turning into a 9-tails bubbly chakra toad? Nobody would be able to stop his rediculously uncontrollable freakish rampage then. X'D rotflmao. "Supreme Hermit Toad Rasengan!" X'D

And now he just set up 4 fights that could possibly last the next 4 months. If these 4 fights last until december of this year, I'm going to seriously consider dropping this manga. (I'm reminding myself this is chapter 319 for future complaining.)

Is it just my imagination, or are there multiple Kumas!? In one grove he is fighting Law and Kid, in another grove hes fighting that skypian guy and Hawkins, and now another Kuma just showed up to fight the Mugiwara crew. Zoro said he seemed different.. and the last two Kuma's haven't said a word and have been hit by attacks that he saw coming and could have easily dodged. Kuma is a cyborg, maybe this are copies of him and thats why they attack and fight differently? And what is up with Gang's fruit power? Aside from a castle in him with maybe thousands of people, it looks like he has a shrinking field around him that lets him do that.

That trailer really didn't show much. I hope Christian Bale does a good John Connor. I'm starting to get annoyed with him, even now whenever I see him in any movie, I always picture him as that thick british accent guy from Reign of Fire.

Which Action Hero Would You Be? v. 2.0 You scored as a James Bond, Agent 007 James Bond is MI6's best agent, a suave, sophisticated super spy with charm, cunning, and a license's to kill. He doesn't care about rules or regulations and somewhat amoral. He does care about saving humanity though, as well as the beautiful women who fill his world. Bond has expensive tastes, a wide knowledge of many subjects, and his usually armed with a clever gadget and an appropriate one-liner. James Bond, Agent 007 58% William Wallace 54% Indiana Jones 46% Neo, the "One" 38% Captain Jack Sparrow 33% The Amazing Spider-Man 33% Maximus 29% The Terminator 29% Batman, the Dark Knight 29% Lara Croft 25% El Zorro 17%

With all the biological things covered in RE, you'd think they'd cover that ability by having the main characters given some sort of regenerative inoculation or something. BTW, do you think they'll actually have someone selling ammo in the game? RE4 had that merchant with every weapon in the game, but the bastard wouldn't sell a single damn shotgun shell or TMP ammo. You could only get ammo off an enemy kill or finding them somewhere in the game. But if you sniper a enemy, you have to run to get the damn ammo drop or it'll disappear. And with no real enemy respawning, you couldn't never go back to another area with weaker enemies just to try and harvest some ammo. Annoys the hell out of me.

http://dvice.com/archives/2008/07/wasp_knife_pump.php Holy shit! As if just getting stabbed wasn't bad enough. If they had this knife in the movie "The Edge" killing that bear would have only been a 3 minute scene instead of half the movie.
