[Frosthawkwhat is this. what is this SHIT]

When I was driving home, I saw a guy riding a scooter on the street. He was a bearded dude wearing a sunglasses, and had a Confederate flag up. A typical Tennessee redneck, in another words.

This owns. Everything hilarious about the south all summed up in one lovely package!

[ROBOT B9I am just about to be BRILLIANT!]

I missed all the fun, what happened?

[PinkemonIts SO limited edition! :'D]

Oh sheesh. Not only do I have to wait for the results of my final exams, but also whether I passed the entry thingy for the HKU.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THE TENSION!

OH GOD OH NO OH MAN RAY BRADBURY JUST DIED AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY WHY WHY NOOOOOOOO

(I've got all of his books... )

On a more poignant note, the world will miss him and let us appreciate the breath of work that the man has given us by sharing his literature with each other.

It was the face of spring, it was the face of summer, it was the warmness of clover breath. Pomegranate glowed in her lips, and the noon sky in her eyes. To touch her face was that always new experience of opening your window one December morning, early, and putting out your hand to the first white cool powdering of snow that had come, silently, with no announcement, in the night. And all of this, this breath-warmness and plum-tenderness was held forever in one miracle of photographic chemistry which no clock winds could blow upon to change one hour or one second; this fine first cool white snow would never melt, but live a thousand summers.

Bradbury was an alright guy, even if he probably hated us for embracing new technology.

Yup. My mind is pretty damn blown.

Wreck-It Ralph trailer

Wait.

A video game movie that legitimately looks good?

From Disney?

...

My only beef in the trailer? Zangief is not a "bad guy".

Q-Bert...

Following Ray Bradbury's Death, Thousands Of People Buy Kindle Version Of Book About Demise Of Paper Books

Here's something from my favorite short story of his:

Kront said, "Why did you do it? Why have you made this thing of flesh and imperfection?"
"Why?" Ultar turned to the box. "Look at him, this creature, this man, so small, so vulnerable. His life is worth something because of his very vulnerability. Out of his fear and terror and uncertainty he once created great art, great music and great literature. Do we? We do not.
"How can a civilization create when it lives forever and nothing is of value? Things only take value from their evanescence, things are only appreciated because they vanish. How beautiful a summer day is that is only one of a kind; you have all seen such days --- one of the few things of beauty that we know, the weather, which changes. We do not change, therefore there is no beauty and no art.
"See him here, in his box, dreaming, about to wake. Little frightened man, on the edge of death, but writing fine books to live long after. I've seen those books in forbidden libraries, full of love and tenderness and terror. And what was his music but a proclamation against the uncertainty of living and the sureness of death and dissolution? What perfect things came from such imperfect creatures. They were sublimely delicate and sublimely wrong, and they waged wars and did many bad things, which we, in our perfectness cannot understand.
"We cannot understand death, really, for it is so rare among us, and has no value. But this man knows death and beauty and for that reason I created him so that some of the beauty and uncertainty would return to the world. Only then could life have any meaning to me, little as I can appreciate it with my limited faculties.
"He had the pleasure of pain, yes, even pain a pleasure, in its own way, for it is feeling and being alive; he lived, and he ate, which we do not do, and knew the goodness of love and raising others like himself and he knew a thing called sleep, and in those sleepings he dreamed, a thing we never do, and here he is now, dreaming fine things we could never know or hope to understand. And you are here, afraid of him and afraid of beauty and meaning and value."

I was ambivalent about Wreck-It Ralph when I first read about it. After seeing that trailer, I can't decide whether I like it more now or less.

On one hand, cameos!

On the other hand, it feels strangely like a DreamWorks/Fox/Universal cartoon in a way I can't put my finger on. Which I guess still shouldn't bother me that much after their earlier attempts at CG, but still.

On the ... uh, foot? ...I really have to wonder what the tie-in video game is going to be like. Especially since Disney is known for having above-average licensed games to begin with.

Did the old Adventure Time thread die/disappear? I don't know enough about Adventure Time to make a new one.

[RagnarThe fact that there is quite definitely nothing at all out there, yet it is visiting anyway, is of some distress to those who care about such things.]

You could bump it and no one would mind, probably.

It's not in the right subforum. Huh.

[diribigalNeither dirigible nor dirigibal.]

Oh, it doesn't have "Adventure" in the title; no wonder I couldn't find it. Thanks.

As much as I enjoy Pixar's films, Brave is doing absolutely nothing for me. I have zero interest in seeing it.

I was pretty excited for it when I first heard about it but the trailers are kind of turning me off. I'm hoping that's just marketing bullshit, though.

[Pink Himalayan Saltsee this watch? i got it by Crying. my car? crying. my beautiful wife? Crying. My perfect teeth? Crying. now get the fuck out of my office]

I've seen very little of it but I am going to watch it anyway because it's Pixar.

Speaking from experience, this could very well be the case. The core of a film, series, game et cetera often gets lost in translation thanks to people who don't "get it".

Boy is that true. I still remember the old commercials for The Lion King that I saw that focused like 75% on Timon and Pumbaa. Granted, that sorta makes sense considering they were commercials airing during Saturday morning cartoons, but still.

The Iron Giant also got murdered by a completely blasé and tone-deaf marketing campaign. A shame, because that fucking movie is brilliant.

I really need to get to watching that movie. Brad Bird is brilliant.

And Lauren Faust was one of the animators...

One of my favourite films of all time. I don't think it was even promoted back in the Netherlands, I heard about it years after it was released and went in completely blind. I was absolutely floored.

Recently the regular marketing push started for Continuum--we're doing everything on the online side of things-- and the trailers that the channel's own marketing department put online are soulless, cheesetastic and downright silly. They don't capture the show at all, which plays a lot with fish-out-of-water, human interaction. It delves into how a person might feel when cut off from their loved ones through extreme circumstances. The show has it flaws, giving its actors hammy dialogue at times and doing things "because it's cool", but it has a certain something to it that is not emphasized at all.
The trailers and promos are basically "In a world... ruled by cheese... BANG BANG PEW PEW EXPLOSIONS...". It's in there sure, but it has purpose, it's a means to an end.

Not to mention that their upload quality is horrid. It's as if they don't care about their stuff and that makes me feel kinda
I rendered those behind the scenes videos in the best lossy format known to man

(Opinions are my own, please don't fire me )

[ROBOT B9I am just about to be BRILLIANT!]

Reminds me of what happened with The Truman Show. Apparently, they marketed it as a wacky Jim Carrey comedy, mostly focusing on that one scene where he plays with the soap in the mirror. But they took away its context, that Truman feels that he's being watched and says "That one's for free." right into the camera.

Thank god it still did well at the box office, it's probably my favorite of Carrey's films.

Aramek recently passed his 5000th post.

From my careful and detailed analysis, I think the first time this forum was ever graced by the knowledge of the most helpful pony was probably on April 2nd, and spread to the IRC soon after.

I won't lie. Mordja's avatar is friggin' adorable.

And Aramek, you're from Fargo? I went there once back in 2008. They have a big-ass mall over there.

[diribigalNeither dirigible nor dirigibal.]

That's the thing about Aramek; he produces tons and tons of text on these forums, and almost none of it is about ponies. He's the anti-Headless Horse.

[AramekYour MRI results have shown total infection to now be approximately one fifth of the full mass of the tissue."So you're saying..."Your brain is about 20% tumor.]

I like the show. I'm no writer/artist, so I can't make fanart, and I don't care for fanfics, so I don't feel like I'm a part of the fandom. I don't add anything, and I don't have a need to belong to a group, so I don't latch onto the "culture" of it all, because I feel no need to. In fact, it seems a bit alien.

I just like you people and a cute show that's fun to watch.

I like how staunchly insular Ponygoons is sometimes.
