    Hey, guess what guys.

    The villains in Nolan's final Batman movie are Selina Kyle/Catwoman and Bane. And get this. Kyle is to be played by Anne Hathaway and Bane to be played by Tom Hardy.

    ....Hathaway as Selina Kyle?

    Um, wait.

    Hathaway as Selina Kyle.

    Seriously?

    Isn't she generally cast in more "girl next door" sorts of roles? I dunno, when I think Selina Kyle, Anne Hathaway is nowhere near the list of people I think might fit.

    Well, according to a lot of people on the Superherohype boards, she's done a lot of more serious roles that have taken her outside of the nice girl typecasting, including one role that got her nominated for an Oscar. Oh, and for an interesting parallel, she was in Brokeback Mountain with Heath Ledger, and her career is in about the same place Ledger's was when he was cast in The Dark Knight.

    If it were anybody but Christopher Nolan, I'd kvetch about Bane, but I'm sure he can pull it off... somehow. Can't be any worse than Bane's last movie incarnation.

    I was secretly hoping he'd go completely out of left field and use Clayface, but I don't think even Nolan could make that work.

    I know! It is more confusing and less customizable.
    And this thing went through Beta testing with actual youtube members, they said they hated it, AND THEY STILL PUT IT UP!

    Now it is impossible to customize which means my reccomended for you page is back and i cant remove it. That sucks because it is broken by every way what so ever.
    It reccomended victorious songs because I watched sam and max best of episode 301.
    Seriously what the hell is wrong with youtube?

    So the verb in your sentence is "Nintendo"? I would get the sentence if it was "I'll do one to Nintendo" or something, but "I'll Nintendo do one" just confuses me.

    Especially since Sega does what Nintendon't. Seems counterintuitive to Nintendo do things.

    Wishful thinking: If by any chance is there an Incredibles World in Kingdom Hearts III, please Nomura, put Donald and Goofy as Papenirik and Super Goof. I mean, they already have super hero personas, you don't have to create it!

    If they made a Toy Story heavy Kingdom Hearts, i'd probably buy that :)

    Huh, I'd been so focused on Toy Story that I didn't even consider The Incredibles. Odd, since that's my favorite Pixar film. I'd also love to see Monsters, Inc. or A Bug's Life. Not so much Cars, Ratatouille, or Up, and if they do another underwater world with Finding Nemo, I think I'm going to have to go hunt down Nomura and take one of his fingers. WALL-E...I dunno, maybe.

    If any one wants to beta my fan game as I go along and make it then just ask. :D It'll be a fairly short game when I finish it but there won't be a save or loading option. PM me...this one is actually good so far.

    Ok I need a schedule that lasts me until March 27th.
    I know for a fact Pokemon Black and White could easily last me there, and that comes out on March 4th, so every day between the 4th and the 27th Ive got good.
    Anyone know any good games in february to pass the time.

    I really need to pay more attention to my bills, specifically my gas bills in this case. Around October last year I started the process of changing the supplier but never got around to giving either my old supplier or the new one the meter readings. Then I forgot all about it. I then got my last bill from my old supplier in December for about £170. I thought it was a little high, but didn't really look into it and just sent a payment of £25 to keep them happy for a bit as I couldn't afford to pay it all in one go (just as well as it turns out!).

    Then last week I got the first bill from my new supplier, for £188 which I also thought was high but again just left it and forgot about it until tonight when I actually read the bill and checked the meter readings they used. Obviously they were estimated but after my actual meter reading I realised that it was way out. In fact, my meter reading was lower than the estimated reading used by my old supplier for my last bill from them!

    So using the same working out figures that they used against my educated guesses of how much gas I've actually used led me to find out that instead of owing a combined £360 I in fact owe around £165 which is actually more like £140, taking that £25 I've already paid. And I'm also sure I've already paid £30 to my new supplier via direct debit which I don't think they've taken into account which brings it down to £110.

    All that remains is to call up the relevant companies and convince them of these things. Only problem is that I absolutely hate calling people I don't know, never mind call centres. Hell, I don't really like phoning people I do know! My problem with calling people is basically because I get flustered easily and I have a hard time getting people to understand what I'm trying to say. Which derives from the fact that I generally have trouble speaking clearly to people face to face (and talking on a phone amplifies that, and really makes me nervous). Hopefully I'll muddle through somehow.

    'Chinese Democracy' is a highly underrated and unfairly criticized album.
  • edited January 2011
    If the rest of Chinese Democracy is anything even remotely like Shackler's Revenge, the album deserves everything it gets and then some.

    No, not all of it is like "Shackler's Revenge". While I actually quite like that song, I do understand why a lot of people don't like it that much. It has a beat that is more akin to something you'd hear in techno music, and that opening is pretty awful (the opening couple of seconds, I'm talking about).

    Are those ^ the sorts of things you dislike about the song. Or is it other factors as well?

    Luckily the album is pretty diverse, so none of the songs are all that similar to that particular song.
