Loved Wolf of Wall Street. Every minute of it. If it seems excessive, that's the point. These assclowns retreated to the same material creature comforts repeatedly and upped the ante everytime. It's bonkers to witness but completely in character. The quualude sequence was breath-taking in that I couldn't stop laughing. I've never seen DiCaprio do anything like that (nor did I thought he had it in him) and he was brilliant. It will definitely be in a top 10 list for him; not strong enough to crack the top five, methinks.

I'd comment in detail about MOS, but I've had this argument too many times. Love it or hate it, this wasn't the Richard Donner film. It doesn't have the marks of a compromised production like that film (or the sequel). It keeps a consistent tone, its thematically solid and for me was emotionally powerful in the quieter moments as well as the action scenes. It's not the definitive cinematic Superman film; it's just the most successful in execution. See, I said I didn't want to say anything, and look what happened. *shrugs*

Olympus Has Fallen was painful to watch. Bad CGI, by-the-numbers plot and gratuitously violent. I can't believe there's a sequel coming soon.

I love the Star Wars tables on Zen Pinball 2. I find playing the game on the Vita to be the best. It looks great and there's no trigger delay (unlike the PS3 version). It's just good to have it on the go, as well. 

This remains the only FPS shooter that I've ever been comfortable coming back to. I still log on Halo 4 MP every now and then. While I don't do marathon MP runs like I did with Halo 3, I appreciate how the controls are still memorable and the environments/maps are still easy to navigate around. It remains a series that I feel I'm adequately proficient at to continue online MP. I'm not high ranking in any game but I still feel comfortable with it. As much as I have had enjoyment with Gears of War or COD: MW2, I can't seem to go back to those.

Most will argue that the changes throughout may have hampered their enjoyment (people still bitch about Reach's powerups) but I've always felt that the fundamental controls never changed. It's felt pretty consistent.

Now, as I've posted before: NO FUCKING IDEA what's going on plotwise. And it doesn't matter somehow.

I have no idea what's going on in the stories of the Halo franchise so Cortana's "nude" image is the least of my problems. 

Yep. This is not only my choice but pretty much everything I think I could say about it. Well done, sir!

None of these imbeciles are going to last long if they continue down this path. They're all going to die angry and alone.

I had a blast with Tomb Raider. Yes, the QTEs early on are poorly executed (but they're not prominent throughout the game) and some combat encounters feel a little too difficult at times (there's a moment in a monastery that almost drove me insane with repeated attempts) but it's a beautiful looking game with some creative design (especially the tomb passages).

It's not that online assholes outnumber us. It's only that they have the louder voice and are relentless.

Don't put that evil on us, Ricky Bobby.

I agree that the film echoes events like that one in Wrath of Khan (as well as a lot of things in the Star Trek universe) but it changes the context which makes a lot of difference. When you think about it, Carol Marcus had a lot more to do than Chekov.

I disagree that Into Darkness is a remake of Wrath of Khan. 1) This is the first time Kirk & Co. are meeting Khan so you don't have the revenge angle. 2) Other elements from WoK are missing, such as the recognizing of old age on Kirk's part. One of the best moments from WoK is the one where Kirk realizes a) he's an aging lothario and b) not only does he have a son, but the son hates his guts.

I must have said this before in a post of mine but it boggles my mind while some people were so bothered by the few seconds of the lovely Alice Eve in undies but didn't mind that a good portion of San Fran was destroyed by the starship Khan was piloting. It makes me wonder if Day complained about the scene in the previous film where Uhura, Kirk and green-skinned Rachel Nichols were all in undies or an early scene in ID where Kirk is in bed with two alien women.

The film is busy with so much that many supporting characters get little to do with, including Alice Eve's Marcus. She's there, I suspect, to lay down a foundation for a relationship that'll pay off in later films (at this point, Kirk hasn't had anything approaching a love interest). So I don't buy that Eve was exploited.

I enjoy Felicia Day's Youtube channel but it doesn't surprise me that her opinions on the film is such. To each his/her own.
