Known as Stuch. Armchair War Junkie. Gamer. Pretend to be a writer. Not really doing anything with my life. Obsessed with celluloid. Utopia has taken a large part of my brain for the time being. Happily making gifs of film and television. I do take requests.

 

This… this was not my intent. Running out of fuel and wanted to use Mun to try and slow me down enough to put me on a collision course with Kerbin. Instead the Mun slung me out into space.

Figured I'd try one of the scenarios, see how I'm doing with learning. Figured out how to get ships into near dock (within five meters) but I keep having them float past each other infuriatingly. Doesn't help that the command module doesn't have SAS so it keeps wobbling off vector while I adjust the other one. :| You have any luck with docking?

None. I’ve bumped pods into each other and ragequit.

You know how people have that one friend who they just talk about penises and ADULT THINGS with?  Yeah I don’t have one of those

If you don’t have one, then you are that friend.

Saving Private Ryan is on Film4, watching it in HD. It remains, without a shadow of doubt, the business. Just timeless.
Sitting here with the Tropes page open too.

It’s atmospheric and well-paced so far. The world is murky and interesting and the characters are… well, they would be far more believable if they actually spoke Russian instead of English with forced accents. I would happily read subtitles for a level of added authenticity but worry- fuck it, I know I am in the minority.
What’s always weird about these sorts of things (Hunt for Red October, Valkyrie) is that they swear in their native tongue and words slip in and out. Metro gets even weirder when you bump into the Germans and everyone seems to understand each other just fine. I’ve gone through a few reviews and nobody seems at all bothered by this.
It’s the accepted standard that games will be in English. Better to shove your journalistic inches into describing how well the weapons handle I suppose (excellently btw). Fuck, maybe everybody does speak English in 2034.


I think they’re nazi russian, not nazi germanThe book and the wiki tell this, read it http://metrovideogame.wikia.com/wiki/Fourth_ReichPS: I played it with russian audio and italian sub, russian audio is the best.

Nazi Russians makes more sense. But they did speak a little German when capturing me, presumably now as a joke. Which only adds to the annoyance at it being in English at all.

Interestingly enough, I did have breakfast with Alex Garland this morning. It’s not off the agenda [a sequel]. Clearly everyone has woken up to the fact that an audience has found this movie and loves it. It’s entirely possible, and if people want to see another installment then they should be vocal about that, because, it can happen.

Why blurb on about everything that has been said already? Why even write an actual review? I never do anyways. Joel Edgerton was the standout as wretched brute, Tom Buchanan. My general apathy for Luhrmann continues unabated. My love for the source material remains high.

New game purchase for tomorrow; Metro: Last Light.


Onwards and downwards, comrades.
