What do you despise more than anything else in the world? Is it nails on a chalk board? Dull pencils? Stepping in the dog's water dish?
Annoying questions?
I think this was mentioned in the Raid thread, but this card's -1 card token attack is stronger than Urchin's attack because the other player cannot choose what card they lose. It's more comparable to a Minion that doesn't cycle.
Here is a real movie buff question. Has anyone got a link to the original "Backstroke of the West", not the more recent "Backstroke of the West: The Third Gathers"? Search engines are full of results for the latter so I can't track down the original.
For those who don't know, "Backstroke of the West" was a very famous US film, illegally dubbed into a Chinese version for Chinese cinema, and then given English subtitles (and the new name) based on the Chinese. See if you can guess the original name.
Will Johnny Manziel be there?No but Leeroy Jenkins will.
Unrelated, I just finished rewatching Shutter Island. OH MY GOD that movie is so amazing **_** Can we at least agree on that one?
But even in art, it's tricky to go against the consensus. If you try to tell me that you think Beethoven's 1st Symphony is superior to his 9th, or that the Pieta is artistically inferior to the death masks of the Egyptians, that's going to be a really, really hard sell.
Well, it's not exactly a major achievement to be superior to Beethoven's 9th symphony.
Sorry man, they're just not good movies, and for some reason everyone who talks about how amazing they are never explains me what is so good about them.
ehh. I see. That would be a much better joke if the prequels weren't better than the originals.
Careful, or you'll hit yourself in your confusion.
I know it's a bit weird that the series "starts" with Episode 4, and I'm sure there are plenty of stories they could tell prior to New Hope, but I think it's a bit silly to be ranking movies that haven't been made yet, right?
who ranked movies that haven't been made yet?
In this case I agree with Awaclus. I don't even think the starwars movies qualify as 'mediocre'.
Heresy! HERESY! (The prequels are awful though)
No man, 2 > 5 > 3 > 4 > 6 > 1; the second of the prequels is the only movie worth watching.
!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
That's arguably the WORST Star Wars movie!
I remember having had this discussion in the past with Teproc, but he wasn't able to tell me what is bad about it.
It has a really good plot, not generic, untypical, even, with the good side having the larger army and the main characters not being the heroes at the end; It has cool locations; It takes itself seriously, for the most part (the chase in the beginning sucks and the comic relief in the end with C-3PO is the worst part about it); it does not require opponents to be utterly incompetent to work, or even the good side having extraordinary amounts of luck; it's not predictable; it sells the universe believably; it has no stupid over the top scenes like 3 and 4 and 6.
In other words, it's a good movie! Unlike 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7
In this case I agree with Awaclus. I don't even think the starwars movies qualify as 'mediocre'.

In other words, you agree that, on average, it is a pretty mediocre series?

On turn 1, I buy a Silver. My opponent buys a Noble Brigand, and hits my Silver.
Chat:QuoteSeprix: ouch
8 Turns later:
Chat:QuoteOpponent: ?? ??
What???
WHAT???
I didn't see him replying as I was playing at first, but then I noticed he started freaking out, so I replied:
Chat:QuoteSeprix: You hit my Silver on T1
Opponent: wow
just wow
well, ill let you have the free win since ur such a sore loser
He quit. I was ahead by 2 Provinces. A bit weird.
Huh? I don't get it; was he doing something that didn't work because he'd stolen your Silver?
