Another screw up with non-english speaking people by completly changing the title of the movie during translation process. If I was unable to find out that Les Gardiens is Watchmen french version, I wouldn't know what movie you are talking about. Actually the french title translates to The Guardians

I do hope the movie is at least better than the french translation

I've heard both really good and really bad reviews, so yeah.

of course a lot of super hero movies gets bad reviews now though, so it's hard to make the difference between good ones and bad ones. They get bad reviews simply because they are all similar in the way that the super hero can beat everything and always win easily, or the fact the story isn't very well developped in most of them. However I liked Superman Returns, though

actually, it wasn't really good guy vs bad guy too much ( i saw it saturday )

but i might have been better that way. there was plenty of awesome violence in there, and some sex too. Rorschach was fucking badass, though. IMO.

***Rorschach is in prison, all the inmates are going mad because a criminal Rorschach attacked died. Rorschach is in a cell with three inmates on the outside, a dwarf and two thugs stand outside with a circular saw, ready to cut into his cell and attack him. Rorschach ties one thug's hand together through the bars. He is in the way, so the other thug cut the thugs hands off, and prepares to get into the cell***

Dwarf Thug: "Now you know the score."

Rorschach: "Yeah. One, zero. Me."

***Epic fight soon ensues, many inmates mangled by various individuals***

Do you still do calc games?

Post by: lordofthegeeks on March 27, 2009, 09:32:08 am
a bit. I have been working on learning ti 86 asm.

aah cool, I think some people here besides me got TI-86 (awesome calc, I wish they did a 86 with archive memory). Also TheStorm does 86 ASM so he might be able to help a bit

I just got mine a few weeks ago off ebay.
I love the thing already.
once I get teh ti 86 asm down I am going to go over and finish learning the 83+ asm...

If it wasn't for the fact not a lot of people use them anymore (which sucks that TI didnt promoted them more since it's an amazing calc) I would prbly try to port some of my old games to it. They would probably run a bit slower and be larger, though...

I saw watchmen and loved it. I bought the graphic novel the same day and have finished reading it. The move is a very good represenation. The graphic novel is by Alan Moore, the same man who wrote the V for Vendetta graphic novel.

I might rent it at one point at the movie store (darn, I wish Niko Video was still open here... they were friggin cheap. The owner closed shop because he was tired of getting vandalized and losing all his money every night). Maybe it's avaliable on Xbox Live, though, so if it's cheaper there I'll download it
