    Something else I just thought of is that the Kingdom Hearts story line is about to get a lot more crazy.

    It's already about a world where if you get sad your doppleganger with an an anagram of your name with an added x for emo edginess appears. I suppose it can get crazier but I doubt it can't get any ****tier.

    Yeah. But now it will have added Midichlorians!

    Also they'll be able to visit Melee island and get in insult sword fights.

    But imagine the possibilities of Star Wars made by someone with actual talent for a change!
    And maybe Spielberg will be let off the leash to make a decent Indy movie!

    It's really mostly the video game possibilities that I'm interested in.

    A new Battlefront game would be brilliant. Could never understand why they never made a third one.

    You can blame that on Haze. Free Radical were developing it until Haze sunk them and then lucas arts wanted nothing to do with the project. There's a good write up about it.

    DAMMIT, you got me excited that it was actually airing.

    It's probably just like all the other Ghost watching programmes, a bunch of jumpy people in cold houses getting over excited and were suggestible from the start.
    What a load of cobblers.

    I was on a ghost tour in Edinburgh some years ago and it included a trip to a "haunted" graveyard and all the trimmings.
    Having a wife who has worked as a hypnotherapist meant she was having fun pointing out all the attempts to create belief in the suggestible in the tour group, worked too, one lady had to be carted out, feeling the cold breeze as described by the guide..... never mind it was a Scottish graveyard in November!

    Have you never seen it? It's a work of genius on par with Orson Welles War of the Worlds. Caused a huge amount of controversy when it aired back in 1992.

    I'm watching on iPlayer but it seems to all be up on Vimeo if you search for it.

    Just turned on The Omen on Sky Movies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Can anyone identify this home system that's in the background of Ghost Watch?

    It's like whenever I pay for anything, I equate it to what I could get in videogames.

    '200 heating bill?! COULD HAVE HAD EARTHBOUND FOR THAT!!' :(

    I've got the 1997 star wars trilogy re-release DVD box set here. Now THAT'S scary!

    Was going to but opted for spending the evening rubbing sandpaper on my genitals instead.

    I regret nothing!

    Just put on The Nightmare Before Christmas and save yourself from self harm...unless you're into that sort of thing.

    Joking aside I actually ended up watching a film with kirsten stewart. Snow White and the Huntsman is pretty good actually.
